In conversation with the Bishop of Birmingham (the Rt. Rev John Sentamu) yesterday, the Queen had herself a chuckle when she named Albus Dumbledore as the headmaster of Hogwarts, the Daily Telegraph reported today. The bishop asked the question during his sermon the Queen was attending the service (her country home is near Sandringham).
:"The Queen was laughing because she knew the answer and none of the children did," said the bishop. "She said: 'Fancy the children not knowing about Harry Potter - I knew.' http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml...equestid=150810

'Fancy' is just a phrase meaning like 'Oh my Gosh' in posh english. Or 'proper' english as it could be called.

Thinking about it, this may be being used to win back the Royals popularity, what with the whole Diana controversy shaking the country at the moment.
But, it made me laugh because it seems impossible that the Queen ever laughs! | |

I get your theory, that's an interesting thought! I'll have to think on that.

oh ..er..yay harry potter! :online2long: Amen to that! The Queen does have a wiked sense of humor, but she tends to keep it private. She also keeps up with all current affairs, so I'm not surprised she knows about Harry Potter. Besides reading Harry Potter beats British press any day. | |
