Goddlefrood:

I do have one small suggestion. W. C. Fields for Horace Slughorn. 

He would bring a certain je ne c'est quoi to the part and is 
more or less how I imagine Uncle Horace. Mr. Fields played no 
real different part throughout his screen life. He always played 
W. C. Fields.

W. C.'s oft stated dislike of children need not be a problem as 
those he did not appreciate could be AKed quite easily and no 
longer trouble him. That may lead to a sharp reduction in the 
student body at Hogwarts, though, so he would need restraining 
from time to time.

The red face, propensity for a tipple and rotundness fir Slughorn 
rather well. It could work just fine, just use your imagination 
and surely you'll agree that Mr. Fields would be perfect for the 
part.

Goddlefrood, who also likes children - fried.
