British stores are planning midnight

British stores are planning midnight openings to mark the launch of Harry Potter and The Philosopher’s Stone on DVD next month.

From Ananova: “Harry Potter mania is gripping the nation once again as fans eagerly await the release of the movie on video and DVD. … Meanwhile fans are already preparing for the release of the fifth book in the boy wizard saga, “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.” It is not out until the summer but bookshops have been inundated with requests from people eager to be the first to own a copy …” (Hmmm … I wonder where they’re getting the information to back up that timeframe?)
