WorkoutDan and Study Hall

[alchemillalady]

I saw or heard Dan say in an interview that he had not been working out 
prior to filming the Bath scene, but began working out several months 
afterwards.  

I heard the Study Hall scene being called'homework club' in some 
interviews; perhaps that is the UK term for 'study hall'?  Actually I 
found it believeable that Snape would forefully redirect their heads to 
their books, but smacking them was too far out of character. I think 
Mike Newell's attempt to convey the British Boarding school environment 
included the notion that these closed environments could be rather 
brutal.  Teachers did not refrain from physical punishment (some were 
almost sadistic with it) and students were sometimes horribly cruel to 
one another, as only unsupervised children can be (such as the scene in 
the cloister where every passerby is taunting Harry, including Cedric's 
friends).
