And I must object to the description of Fleur as "stupid". I hardly think
that she would be a Triwizard Champion if she were stupid. She may be a bit
haughty, but it's clear that she loves her sister and she was nice enough by
the end.
Also, for some reason, the picture in my head of Justin Finch-Fletchley is
blond. I haven't been able to find anything in the canon to corroborate this,
so I'm not sure how it got there, but there you go.
