I don't have the audio versions, but if Jim Dale is giving Ginny 
green eyes, he's WRONG!  US version, chapter 3, page 40 of the 
hardcover version:

"On the third landing, a door stood ajar.  Harry just caught sight of 
a pair of bright brown eyes staring at him before it closed with a 
snap."

Jim Dale is supposed to be reading the American versions, so I don't 
know WHAT was going on if he made a gaffe like this.

Jen (who remembers referencing that same quote at least a year ago 
when she was L.O.O.N.ing her way into a "proof" that Ginny's eyes 
were brown...)
