Mrs. Figg - Phyllida Law

Tonks - Anyone but Keira Knightley

Kingsley Shackelbolt - Chiwetel Ejiofor (of Love Actually); The 
minute I saw him I knew people were going to throw that name around.  
But I happened to catch an old episode of East Enders on Saturday...

Mundungus Fletcher - Iam Holm ("'Sup, Figgy?")

Maybe I'll be lucky enough again to get one of my choices.  It 
happened for POA! (Emma Thompson)
