Next picture:
Dark.  Same scene.  Asian girl to one side of Quirrell, watching Harry
overhead.  I suspect she is meant to be Cho Chang.  Has long hair
braided in the back. [Note: There is another spectator in this scene, a
black boy I suspect is meant to be Dean Thomas (in the American version,
Dean is described in the Sorting Scene as being black).  I didn't
attempt a picture of him as I suspected the lighting was too dark. I'll
check back to see if they have put up additional lines.  He is in the
next scene, too, where Harry gets the Nimbus 2000; again, I thought the
light was too dim to capture a good picture of him.]

Next picture:
Dark.  Owls delivering Nimbus 2000.

Next picture:
Harry reads Prof. McGonagall's letter that comes with the Nimbus 2000.

Next picture:
Ron opens his presents Christmas morning.

Next:
Dark.  Harry and the Invisibility Cloak.  This was one of the show's
coolest illusions.  What you see is actually a reflection in a two-way
mirror set at a 45 degree angle; the actual figurine of Harry is hidden
out of sight by a curtain and a spotlight is trained on him so he
appears in the mirror.  As Harry raises the shimmery silver Invisibility
Cloak, the light goes off the figure of Harry and instead shines behind
the mirror, showing an empty room, so it looks as though he disappears!

Next picture:
(NOT POSTED; too dark and blurred)  Professor McGonagall and Dumbledore,
with their Christmas cracker fantastical hats on their heads, raise wine
glasses in a christmas toast.

Next picture:
Harry and Ron, wearing their Weasley Christmas sweaters (jumpers), play
wizard chess.  Two of the chess pieces move on the chess board by
themselves.  Harry wears his Christmas cracker hat (shaped like an
Admiral's hat).  Dumbledore and McGonagall are in the background out of
the frame of the picture, toasting Christmas.

Next picture:
(SKIPPED) A book in the restricted section of the library shrieks when
it is opened.

Next picture:
Snape, drawn by the alarm of the screaming book that Harry had opened in
the Restricted section of the library, searches a school corridor.
Filch is beside him, out of the frame; Harry is hiding around the
corner.

Next picture:
Harry waits around the corner, terrified, to see if Filch or Snape will
find him (of course, in the book at this point, Harry is wearing the
cloak).

Next picture:
VERY blurry.  Hermione discovers the reference to Nicholas Flamel in a
book she had taken out of the library for "light reading."  You can't
see it, but Harry is holding the Dumbledore card he'd gotten from a
chocolate frog.

Next picture:
Harry and the Mirror of Erised. Again, this was done with a two-way
mirror. First the light shines on Harry, looking into the mirror with an
anguished look on his face . . .

Next picture:
And then the light shines inside the mirror, and we see James and Lily.

Next picture:
Snape confronts Quirrell in the Forbidden Forest.  Harry overhears
everything from his broom overhead.  (I took a picture of Harry, too,
but it was too dark to turn out.)

Next picture:
Filch catches Harry and Hermione at the foot of the tower stairs after
they have delivered Norbert to Charlie's friends (see them flying away
in background).

Next picture:
Same scene.  Harry and Hermione, caught by Filch.

Next picture:
Same scene. Filch closeup.

Next picture:
(SKIPPED, too dark).  Forbidden Forest.  Harry, Hermione, Hagrid and
Neville examine silvery unicorn blood on the ground. Draco stands to the
side, looking arrogant and bored.

Next picture:
Firenze in the Forbidden Forest.

Next picture:
Harry, driven to his knees by the pain in his scar, looks up and sees
Firenze.

Next picture:
(Too dark and blurry, skipped).  Hermione plays Fluffy a lullaby.

Next picture:
Harry and Ron fight to disentangle themselves from the Devil's Snare.

Next picture:
Harry, on his broom, struggles to capture the winged key.

Next picture:
Blurry.  Ron is knocked out by a buffet from the arm of the White Queen.

Next picture:
Hermione deciphers the puzzle and drinks one of the potions (blurry
because Hermione was moving to swig the potion back).

Next picture:
Blurry.  Harry looks at his reflection in the Mirror of Erised as
Quirrell lunges at him.

Next:
Harry, in his hospital bed, turns the pictures of the photo album that
Hagrid has given him.  (There are various candy boxes scattered around
with "Honeydukes" on the lids.

Next:
Same scene, close up of Harry.  Note the photographs of James and Lily.
These were polaroids, probably taken of the James and Lily figures used
in the Mirror of Erised scene.

Next:
Harry and Ron hoist Neville on their shoulders as Hermione and
Dumbledore look on.  Gryffindor has won the House cup!

Last picture:
Portrait of Harry over the exit.  Hope you enjoyed the show!

Cheers,
Peg
