Did anybody see this last night?
I thought it was a really great programme but it was obvious she was intensely private.
Anyway, although short, the juicy bit was when she had a meeting in London in the summer with the Warner Bros people about the theme park in Orlando, there were mocked up photos in shot although they weren't close ups and an imagineer type person describing an idea for an attraction.....how exciting.
With two trips under our belt this year I can't imagine we'll be going back for four years so it'll be all up and running by then and hopefully they'll have read the books too......
 
I saw that.......it was really interesting. When I finished the last Harry Potter book I felt like I had said goodbye to a friend, so goodness knows how she must have felt, having created him.

To be honest, none of us were that enamoured with Universal, but we will definitely go back there to see Hogwarts Village. Can't see our next trip to Florida being before 2010 so it will probably be ready for when we next visit. :thumbsup2
 
I saw it too the programme was very enjoyable, i felt she was really honest about being a "star"

I really felt this too - after so many years of following his story it felt sad to know there would be no more, even though she wrapped the whole thing up completely.

That's how I felt too Elaine. I loved the programme, especially when she was sorting out the family tree

I really hope she'll write some more Harry Potter books in the future
 
oh i missed this! i wonder if they will show it again?

grrr... i forgot to put it in the sky+ !!!
 
We watched this tonight, brillant:thumbsup2
 
I liked the programme but it/she annoyed me a bit as well going on about how poor they were as children etc when the houses it showed that they lived in looked very nice and her flat htat she went back to is much bigger than mine, they seemed to feel the need to show she deserved her success because she'd had a "terrible childhood".
