Seen it.
Youngest Sprogg declared it to be "The best one yet".
I can't really remember one from the other as they all sort of mix
together in my mind as do the books.
It was good.
I was very distracted by a small lad in our row who was obviously too
young and a bit bored. He was a terrible wriggler and just kept making
noise and etc. Ho hum. I guess we should go to the late showings of
kids movies but I'm always afraid I'll drift off in anything past
10pm.

What age, does the team think, is ideal for an introduction to Harry
Potter? My Mum wants to buy a DVD for James, and has seen HP on sale -
is six a good age, or too young? James is aware of HP, but has not seen
any of the films, or read the books.
Mum says that, when she was shopping, parents seemed to be buying comics
and DVDs for children about the same age as James. I just don't know
what he would make of it. Either love or hate, I suppose. He loves Dr.
Who, although hasn't a clue what is happening, half the time :-)

I think six might be a bit young but there were six year olds at the
movie last night so what do I know. My youngest read the first book at
about 8 IIRC. What I'd do is buy the first book and try reading it to
him. If he gets bored and seems not into it, put it aside for a bit
longer.

Oh, OK. I'm not well enough informed to know why this one should be any
different to the earlier ones. I don't even know how many films there
are. Seven books, though, I think.

That is a good idea, with one flaw - it means I have to read it, which
may be a problem :-)

You will have to look at the earlier stuff then. Although people do tend
to fixate on their first Dr :-)

Was that on UKTV Drama?
They started at 8am with the first ever episode, with William
Hartnell, the *real* Doctor Who.
I watched it firt time round, and the repeat (by popular demand) the
following week.
I can't get UKTV Drama, so I missed it this time :-(
Bah!
