Don't be fooled - he can be made older, especially because
he's supposed to be worn and harried.

He's still in excellent shape, though. Whereas Lupin and Sirius - 
well, we are talking about the two major heartthrobs of the 
adult female Potter community here! So Firth and McGregor - what a 
pairing. Especially since Firth would go well with the James they
picked. All slightly scruffy and likeable, but then changed
beyond recognition by the time inbetween.
