Hmmm.  I thought 40-odd would be pushing it.  The Texas vid?  It's been
doing the rounds, but I guess MTV and VH1 will show it to death.  Sharleen
was asked who she'd most like to tango with in the video and she picked her
dream man: Alan Rickman. He does look a bit like someone's Dad dancing with
his daughter's best friend - those close-ups aren't kind. 

It's amazing what make-up and special effects can do these days, so I don't
think we should worry *too* much about any of the people cast.  Overall, the
cast is looking great, in my opinion.  I hope Julie Walters accepts the
Molly Weasley role and does it with her Liverpool accent.  Mind you, I think
I'm right in saying that Molly's supposed to be older than Snape...

That's okay - not eveyone has to be as sad as me.
