You cannot be serious!  Dumbledore with a scots accent?  I think 
not!  No I'm afraid my vote still goes for Peter O'Toole.  But in 
Azkaban we also have some other "bit parts" to be filled.  McNair the 
executioner for instance, who also crops up in Goblet.  And then 
actors have to be found for the roles of Barty Crouch Snr (and Jnr) 
as well as Mad-Eye Moody (my votes still on Billy Connolly for that 
one).

I think Derek Jacobi who did the Brother Cadfael TV series, would 
make an excellent Crouch Senior.  

Finally, I remembered the name of the actor who I think would make a 
good Lupin.......... Denis Lawson!  Not a terribly well-known name 
but he is Ewan McGregor's re-life uncle and appeared in the first 
three Star Wars movies and in the movie Local Hero.

Just my few thoughts........ for what they're worth.
