He reads the question, types some stuff and in two seconds a percentage or number appears. After one week, I'm still like, huh? Anyway, after school, we wanted to explore London in the evening a bit. It started pouring cats & dogs as we left school, and the tube station, Holborn, was so jammed-pack with people seeking shelter that the station staff started shouting at everyone not taking the tube to get out.
We were deciding between Covent Garden and Leceister Square (again), and since Covent Garden is mostly open air, we decided to take the underground to Leceister Square and maybe catch a play or musical.
When we arrived there, we were just aimlessly walking around, looking at the half-priced tickets on offer, but decided against watching any as it would end quite late and everyone has studying or homework to do. What happened next totally blew us away.
There was this huge, huge crowd of people gathering outside the Odeon (or was it the Empire) Theatre, and a makeshift overhead bridge from the centre of the square to the cinema entrance. Everywhere was drabbed in Griffyndor colours and Harry Potter posters. We spotted the words 'World Premiere' and just couldn't believe our luck.
There were interviews conducted live which was beamed on two giant LCD screens, and each time a star walked over the bridge to the theatre the crowd just started screaming. Crazy English girls.
Ron Weasley seemed to be the most popular cast member, getting the largest screams. Dunno is it he recently recovered from H1N1 and the girls were especially sympathetic, or because he was caught scratching his backside and revealed the pink boxers he was wearing.
Pictures time. :p
The evil Slytherin is actually a crowd favourite, and he took the time to paused and pose for the cameras
