Potioncat:
I remember that picture. And if my memory doesn't fail me (Hah, who am 
I kidding!) the wheelchair was a very old fashioned one. Certainly, it 
was not for Maggie Smith, but for McGonagall. I imagine they cut the 
scene later.

But just to be sure I took a look at the Internet Movie Database. 
Maggie Smith looks to have been very busy the past few years and has 
two more movies in the wings.

after reading DH to go.)
