HP and the Chamber of Nepotism

[Tim Regan <timregan@microsoft.com>]

Hi All,

I watched the film again over Christmas (third time only – I know 
I'm slacking) and stayed for the extra scene after the credits. One 
thing that struck me was the number of times Columbus pops up as a 
surname. IMDB lists three of them http://us.imdb.com/Credits?0295297 
though it felt like there were more:

Eleanor Columbus ....  Susan Bones
Violet Columbus ....  Girl with Flowers
Brendan Columbus ....  Boy in Study Hall 1

Is this just coincidence?

Cheers,

Dumbledad.

PS They've still got JKR down as "Knockturn Alley Witch #1 
(uncredited)", I thought that was firmly denied now.
