Any thoughts on which actors are 'right' for the role
of new Potions 
master Horace Slughorn yet? I now it's all a bit in
the future. But 
did you have any particular actor in mind when you
read the part?

Rotund and bewhiskered, I pictured a bumptious old
man, I had in my 
mind Joss Ackland. He'd be a comtemporary of DD,
therefore akin to 
Michael Gambon.

My first thought for Slughorn was Bob Hoskins. Short,
pudgy, yet not entirely harmless and also ingratiating
to the point of nausea ;-) Not the actor mind you, but
I think he could play that well. I think he also
expressed an interest in being in a Potter film a
while ago (he also talked about Daniel since he acted
with him in David Copperfield and he played McCawber.
) So, if you are familiar with that book, he was
halfway to Slughorn anyway ;-)
