She writes today was her first scene working with actor Jim Broadbent, who will be portraying Professor Horace Slughorn in the sixth Harry Potter film. Emma writes:

"It's amazing to be working with him. It's also great because I have been eating profiteroles ALL DAY at Slughorn's dinner party!!!"

When I first read “profiteroles”, I thought it was a typo!! I had to check Wikipedia for that one. LOL.

It must be a thrill to work with Jim Broadbent. The young HP actors are very fortunate to work with so many of Britain’s best!

I hope they keep the incident with Severus Snape is in the party scene also. I would love to see Slughorn teasing Snape about his potion making skills- compared to Lily’s!

How funny! I’ve been eating profiteroles for dessert for yers (at restaurants, I don’t cook) and I never even made the connection that they were basically the same as cream puffs. Probably because the profteroles I have had usually had some ice cream (as well cream) inside so I thought that was the difference! Ha!

Glad that they are keeping in the party scene. I want to see the brigh yellow eyebrow and Luna’s offer to dye hers the same color so they can match.

Nice timing, I have just finished watching my DVD of “Ballet Shoes” which arrived today. I loved the TV production so much I couldn’t wait to see it again on DVD.

Oh, this is GREAT! If they are keeping the Slughorn party in, it means that there’s a chance that we’ll see Luna in her amazing dress! And – OMG – Snape and Draco’s conversation??? This is almost too good to be true =))))))))
