I don't know if this is where the name of the show comes from 
(probably, but I couldn't prove it), but the point of the show is 
that the peeves are banished to this room, to the relief of the guest 
star.  There is no indication that there is some poor soul in the 
show's Room 101, which is strictly a light-hearted comedy show.  

I know this is going off-topic, but I just wanted to help clear this 
up for those without access to British TV.

A point about Percy.  Yes, he is hungry for power, but, IMHO, he is 
too obessed with "good" rules to go over to the Dark Side knowingly.  
However, being so blinkered, he could quite easily be *conned* into 
working for V and/or hindering or even endangering Harry.  Percy may 
have been a good student, but he strikes me as naive in the Big Bad 
World, being so inflexible and bound by rules, and therefore not able 
to think for himself.  I agree with many of you (sorry, no names at 
hand) that Percy will have a part to play against Harry and even his 
family, but will snap out of it when he finally opens his eyes (and 
his brain) and realizes what he's doing.

Thanks for listening!
