Bits left out

[alexpie at aol.com]

My favorite line left out is a very, very minor one.  When Harry and Ron are 
discussing how to find out about Nicholas Flamel, they suggest that Hermione 
ask her parents, as that would be safe (that is, not suspicious).
  And I can *just* hear Hermione saying, as she said in the book, "Very safe, 
as they're both dentists."  I yelped when that was left out.
  Also, re Hugh Grant.  He had a prior commitment that ran over, and his part 
(Lockhart) is now being played by Kenneth Brannagh.  Sorry if this info has 
been posted before, but I have been caught up in hideous medical issues ("I'm 
sorry, your baseline EKG is abnormal"), and have missed some digests.
  Happy New Year to all on the list!
