Thanks to the BBC, we can now see some new aerial footage of Leavesden Studios in England, including new sets of the Burrow, Privet Drive, a courtyard, Hagrid’s Hut, a train station/platform, possibly the base/grounds outside the astronomy tower and more being used for the upcoming Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.To watch, click here.UPDATE:Thanks to the galleries crew, you can now see the footage here in our video galleries, screencaps are available here in our image galleries You can also see a clear shot of the new Burrow or what they are thinking may possibly be the Gaunt house set here via Newsround.
Watch Chamber of Secrets again, and you’ll see that they have recreated it, down to the concrete pigpen and the hanger style garage. The square base of the lower level, and the rickety upstairs, it’s exactly like it was in COS.
i saw the video everything looks great hope they dont cut the gaunts or the scene at the begining with dumbledore and the dursleys i loved that part it was a scream. does anybody know or have you heard any rumors i haven’t seen anything about that part
WOW, was there ment to be sound though, i had no sound?? cool to see it all….....cant wait for teaser trailer need more film harry potter!!! eeeeek cant wait!!!
jimjam – Don’t worry, the video didn’t have any sound so you weren’t missing anything!
Dawn – I kind of agree too, but I’m so desperate at the moment to see anything to do with the film that I’m not really bothered if it spoils the magic. I can’t resist the temptation!
@mollywobble thanks for the answer!!
@Dawn…yeah!That’s what went through my mind too..it kinda spoils the magic…..
I think too that it is the burrow…I mean that’s what I thought when I saw it…
As for the trees…I don’t know why but it reminds me of Aragog’s Funeral…or perhaps sth with Harry and Dumbledore?

Could be. I was thinking maybe the attack scene at the Burrow, but that specifically talked about “reeds”, and I don’t see any reeds, just trees. You would think it is a fairly pivotal scene though, for them to build a set for it like that. I keep racking my brains going through HBP, but I can’t really think of any scenes that would be forested like that, except maybe like you said Aragog’s funeral.
I love it but I am sad because I thought it was the gaunts house but I compared it to the picture of the burrow I Chamber movie and it defiantly is. But the rest is cooooooooooool :) ya.
And then an unearthly and beautiful sound filled the air... It was coming from every thread of the light-spun web vibrating around Harry and Voldemort. It was a sound Harry recognized, though he had heard it only once before in his life: phoenix song.[br]
It’s the Burrow! They think it’s Gaunt’s house but I don’t agree…
