Hi.

Here's my summary of events at the end of DH, I *think* this is what 
happened but am still uncertain!

Harry found out that he was a HRX from Snape and therefore decides 
he has to die. He trundles off into the forest for his great 
sacrificial moment only to find himself at King's Cross with Voldy 
in tow. There DD informs him that due to the blood that Voldy took 
from Harry he can return for the finale. In the forest Voldy has 
also been AK'd, not because of Harry's sacrifice but because of the 
shared blood thingy. Voldy can't die because he still has one Nagini 
shaped HRX left and doesn't turn into Vapour!Mort because his 
current mortal form is linked to Harry by blood. Voldy doesn't 
return from King's Cross until Harry does so we can deduce that if 
Harry had 'gone on' then Voldy would be vapour once more. On his 
return Harry and all of his comrades are immune to Voldy's magic 
because of Harry's sacrifice, thus Harry does not feel the 
Cruciatius curse and Neville isn't immolated by the sorting hat. In 
the last standoff Harry et al cannot be killed by Voldy (sacrificial 
shield again) but Voldy can be killed by them because the blood 
thing is a one way deal. However, Harry is not prepared to AK Voldy 
but does believe that the Elder wand isn't working properly for 
Voldy, therefore, as long as he can deflect Voldy's AK, by any means 
at all, Voldy will kill himself. The spell Harry casts is immaterial 
as it acts only to punt the AK back at Voldy.

Regards
Jo
