Carodave:

I don't think the blond DE can be Ludovic Bagman.  Bagman was a 
celebrity - a famous athlete - and personally known by the Hogwarts 
staff.  They would have recognized him.  Minerva McGonagall is a 
Quidditch fan and wwould certainly have known him.  He is also 
personally known from the World Cup to all of the Weasleys.  Ginny 
and Ron would have recognized him, as Harry would have when he 
joined the fight.  However dark it was and however confusing the 
fight may have been, everyone else was easily recognizable and 
Bagman would have been known if he were there.
