About time – and yes, I am loving the “first time a movie series is given the award”. Harry Potter does not fit any mold. All those creative people who has given so much for our enjoyment deserve such praise.

Very well deserved, they are a fantastic team of creative people who have dedicated so much time and effort to doing a great job on these films. They’re a really nice bunch of people too. I had the pleasure of meeting Stephanie McMillan during a set visit and she is lovely.

And quite right too! They’ve made a major contribution to the British film industry. The feel of the films were spot on thanks to the creative, special and visual effects. I could watch the behind the scenes footage forever.
