BBC released their documentary Harry Potter: A History of Magic on DVD in the U.K. yesterday, 27th November, and we’ve got a copy to giveaway!

The documentary – which we covered here – gives a behind-the-scenes look at The British Library’s current exhibition, combining early annotated drafts and drawings from J.K. Rowling’s archives with the library’s own archives on real-life historical magic. Jim Kay also appears in the documentary to talk about the process of illustrating the series, along with quotes from the books read by various actors from the films. The documentary is narrated by Imelda Staunton, and features new footage of J.K. Rowling seeing items from the exhibit firsthand for the first time.
