Just saw Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, at the end of which Hagrid returns to Hogwarts from Azkaban and receives a standing ovation from students and faculty alike. Heart-warming scene, one of my all-time favorites. |

Arena) well before the Harry Potter days, more about “Tutti Frutti”, another of his triumphs. (which no-one else has recalled so far?) |
