| | | Quote of the Week - Timothy Spall 
Actor Timothy Spall recently spoke about how much of a difference playing Peter Pettigrew (Wormtail) in the Harry Potter films has made in his life, including when meeting fans: Quote:
I asked Timothy Spall, who plays Pettigrew, what Harry Potter had done for his career?
"Destroyed it," he said.
He was joking, and he got a big laugh from assembled TV critics.
"No, actually, it's very unusual," he added. "It's one of the smallest parts I've ever played in my life, and wherever I go in the world, it's one of the ones that gets the biggest recognition. I don't mind. I think Harry Potter is kind of a phenomenon."
He says even people in Middle America say, doing an accent, "Hey, are you the rat dude?"
"And it's somebody in their 50s," he added.

Innit he a funny one.  I wouldn't want to be known as the rat man (or woman, for that matter) but he seems very good-natured about it.

That's a good quote. Destroyed his career. Like most of you I wouldn't want to be known as that rat dude/woman but hey, at least he got paid to do it. Can't wait to see him in Deathly Hallows.

Can't wait to see him in Deathly Hallows. Yes, I'm also looking forward to seeing him in Deathly Hallows, especially the part when his silver hand kills him in the basement of Malfoy Manor. Should be interesting, right?

I thought the hand kills him in the Seventh book? That was when Malfoy didn't want to identify Harry, Hermione and Ron. I think. Sorry if I'm wrong.

Peter Pettigrew dies in the final book in the basement of Malfoy Manor.
I love how the article refers to Middle America....sounds like the author of that piece is waaaaay into Lord of the Rings geographical type references!

You're right; Deathly Hallows is the 7th book. That should be fantastic. That's the movie(s) I can't wait to see. I've seen so many trailers or pictures from HBP that it seems that I've already seen the movie. Oh well.
