Relax everyone, the problem was solved last night on Dr Who - the 
force in the locked room turned out to be the Daleks again, as usual, 
trying to destroy the human race, directed by an extra big Dalek 
who'd decided he was God and set out to rule the universe. 

Luckily, a combination of the sonic screwdriver and Rose Tyler 
concentrating hard on the middle distance blew up the entire Dalek 
space fleet of 2000 ships in about a minute, so that was ok. 
Voldemort was kinda counting on them for back up, but as he was only 
a construct of their evil imagination, as they were vapourised he 
disappeared up his own vortex.

Obviously Jo's been spinning out the series over all these years 
trying to think of something sufficiently Bangy to put in that locked 
room, but now that's been dealt with her choices are narrowing. 

Basically, Harry can wrench open the door and step into the Tardis 
and be whirled off on his Next Big Adventure (cue great stereophonic 
noises off). Or, he can step through a Prose Portal into, say, an 
Enid Blyton Famous Five book (where his saving people thing would be 
dead handy); or he could find himself staring at that bench in 
Oxford, hoping that Hermione would turn out to be in another time 
continuum to Lyra and he'd never have any explaining to do.
