Ever so briefly ...

I am overworked to buggery and have a vile cold to go with it (damn you huggy snotty toddlers!), so am behind in every aspect of my life save comfort knitting (the healthier, more productive version of comfort eating), but I would like to say that there is one good thing about the otherwise awful Epilogue photos that are emerging from the Deathly Hallows set (here via the gorgeous Anna).

For all of us on the upper side of 37, they make us look fucking brilliant. I'm 43 and I look at least 10 years younger than that lot, even with a headful of snot. Really, like their appallingly ancient twentysomething James and Lily snr choices, I think it's the film designers' way of making the older set engage with the films. And walk away thinking 'You know, even without Botox, I'm not doing that badly!' Must dash, my comparatively ageless face needs to be at work ;-)

Richard Armitage! *sigh* I still can't believe they didn't cast him as Sirius. Actually, most Warner cast choices are not quite brilliant. Oh, Hollywood, you exist for the LOL factor.

Let's wait for a BBC Harry Potter series, shall we? (Imagine Armitage as Snape and Tennant as Lupin, for instance. *g*)
