My Dad Loves Hagrid he thinks he is sooo funny. He almost said something that echoed what harry said in the Chamber of Secrets movie – He said ” It wouldnt be any fun without Hagrid”. Robbie will be the second HP actor on Johnathan Ross- Helena was on there talkin about Bellatrix last year. I dont live in England so I cant watch it. I live across the pond, in North Dakota, USA. But hopefully someone records it.

Never fear folks, it’ll probably be up in Youtube a few hours after it airs. Loads of “Wossies” interviews are.

Jonathan will DEFINITELY ask him about HBP.He did the same thing with Carter last year.I mean, it’s one of his future projects.I’d love to hear something about his part and the film of course.And a clip would be awesome but I doubt it.

He’s not going to be second Bellasnape, Daniel’s been on twice as well as Helena Bonham Carter. Pretty sure Maggie Smith’s been on too, though don’t quote me on that one

Yeah, there is no way Jonathan will not ask Coltrane about his role as Hagrid. Jonathan himself loves the movies and always talk about taking his kids to see them. Radcliffe has indeed been on twice. John Hurt (Ollivander) has been on it recently (and yes Ross asked him about that too, if he will be in the last one! I think he said he doesnt know).

Dan, David Tennant, Julie Walters, and Helena have been on the show. There may have been more… maybe before they were relevant to the HP series.
