I'm learning to drive at the moment, so that's taking all my time.
They were just kind of simultaneous - the film ending and the sets being destroyed. I was struck the first time I saw the Great Hall become a big pile of burning rubble and getting scattered around. It's really quite shocking for the fans.
I think its Ron's turn to sort of try that out, so I'm looking forward to that.
One in the third film, I'm looking forward to meeting one of the Dementors.
I like to swim and ride my bike.
I had this giant slug in my mouth loaded with slime and I spat them out. I think it was plastic. I hope it was plastic.
But we knew the characters pretty well because we were all big fans of the books.
Are you kidding? This is Harry Potter! I love every last moment of it.
I went to an after-school drama class for two years, and I did a lot of school plays.
It was really weird but also so much fun. I had such a brilliant time on the set.
I'm shorter, I don't have as many freckles as Ron, and I can't do magic.
Being famous is wicked. But it's better to be normal.
Well, before I knew there was going to be a film. I was the biggest Harry Potter fan. I read all the books.
In terms of filming, yes, it really does feel over now. There's a real sense of freedom now. It's a good time to finish, I think. As much as I'm going to miss it I'm ready to move on and do different things.
