Last night we told you that author J.K. Rowling and actress Emma Watson attended the Pride of Britain awards in London, England. Tonight the program was broadcast in the UK, and we now have the video of Emma presenting a special award to a very emotional and very gracious Jo Rowling. You can now watch this lovely moment here in our galleries. The Pride of Britain awards are held to recognise the ordinary people in the UK who achieve extraordinary things. JKR was given special recognition for her continued works of charity.
That was so awesome! Megan really deserved that award, and what an honor to have Jo present it! Jo is so amazing, she deserves every award she has ever received for Harry Potter. It was so appropriate to have Emma present!
Yay Megan, Jo, and Emma!
way to go Megan! I can’t imagine what that must have been like up there… I would have been flipping out but that’s me anyway… congrats to Megan and Jo!
It was a very moving show which acknowledged some very brave and admirable people of all ages. No wonder Jo was an emotional wreck, I was. That young lady, Megan, has what it takes to succeed, and she didn’t seem fazed by the occasion. I’m just so proud of Jo’s down to earth attitude about celebrity and her generosity to others.
Hehe, Emma sort of forgot to give her the award, Jo actually had to reach and take it from her. Hehe… Well, they were both very sweet and emotional. And my gosh, that young girl Megan! What a true hero!
I’m going to be mean and say I was annoyed that they kept changing cameras and we couldn’t see Jo or Emma that much. But Jo deserves every single award.
Oh my, that was really moving, and I only watched for the three minutes of it! It was a little odd to suddenly take away from Megan’s pride and give the award to Jo - I agree whole-heartedly that she deserves it, of course - but they shifted the spotlight so suddenly it felt weird to me. Anyway, yay to all three of them. I’d be so interested to read Megan’s book.
Erm, apparently putting hyphens around something strikes it out, and I most definitely did not mean to strike that above comment out. I was simply doing two hyphens to signify dashes. Oops!
"He seems like a very good teacher," said Hermione approvingly. "But I wish I could have had a turn with the boggart --"[br]"What would it have been for you?" said Ron, sniggering. "A piece of homework that only got nine out of ten?"
utterly remarkable.
