When I was reading the book I always pictured Mad Eye as the older sales
man, in "Are you being served ?" I'm sorry I don't know his name, but I'm
talking about the small bald guy behind the counter, not Captain Peacock.
I'm not sure if he's still alive (seeing as Molly Sugden - Ms Slocomb in the
series - is in her mid 80s and he seemed about her age).

And I reply through the giggles:
Please tell me you don't mean John Inman. I'm really not taking the piss out of you, but John Inman??? Really???? The campest man who ever lived as Mad-Eye Moody!? Every adult in the audience who used to watch Are You Being Served would wet their pants, I definitely couldn't take him seriously.

Screw it, let's get Graham Norton to play Cedric.
