Also, This is Gloucestershire has a short article today stating they will have a preview report and additional photos from the filming tomorrow where 174 students from the local King’s School will be take part as extras in the sixth Harry Potter film.

They are not filming tomorrow. It’s happening on the 7th and 8th of February. And there are students from other schools as well. It’s making me angry because a friend is an extra and she does not go to Kings. I have other pics of Gloucester cathedral if anyone wants them.

What format do you want the pics in? On their own, or in a Word document?

Ah, I would love to see pics of that Gloucester Cathedral. Will you be able to go there with your friend when they shoot the scenes, Becca? That would be awesome.

@Becca. JPGs (pics) always work best, but we are happy to receive them whichever format works best for you. Thanks!

Do you think one of those house belongs to Snape, I’m thinking one of them has got to belong to the Spinners end scene or they are just keeping it really secret to not spoil even the look of that scene, any thoughts. And all four – Alan, Helena, Helen, and Timothy are about to shoot a scene in the beginning of Feb.

I read on IMDB that carter,walters,radcliffe,coltrane and smith are about to shoot there! Some kind of a battle scene, I suppose…

But what about all these students? And I’ve seen on imdb a pic from Londontaxitour.com a grassy courtyard…maybe it’s the place where they all find Dumbledore’s dead body? :o I imagined it to be a remote sloping lawn next to some small towers which are in front of the huge Astronomy Tower…but it’s all my imagination…hahaha

Oh, Sue I heard that you are all about to visit the set…oh gooooood…I hope you’ll enjoy it as much as possible…I hope you will give us a tidbit…especially if you liked the artwork of the cave and the inferi and the astronomy tower…<3

I love that they are again filming on THIS location. It is a terrific addition to the film itself. Still wondering exactly which scenes are being filmed here.

Guess the photos have begun in urnest. [:o) ] since we now have photos of TWO Hagrid’s cabins being built. [lol!] Thanks TLC. :)

That’s some brilliant photos, I was down there yesterday to have a nose around but I didn’t get any photos sorry. I’m going down again on Tuesday to have another wander. It is all very exciting though

I think it’s a bunch of scenes, so not all the cast will be together.
