Gloucester readies for HBP filming
As reported earlier this week, filming crews for Half-Blood Prince will be returning to Gloucester, England, where scenes have not been shot since the first two movies. A few photos have emerged online and a brief article from This is Gloucestershire reports that:
"The corridors of the school are alive with excitement as 174 pupils prepare to join the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the film version of Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince."
A full report and additional pictures are expected in tomorrow's Citizen.

That's great! I can't wait for this film I think it'll be the best one yet! :D
great!!! 2nd?
Oooh that's great!!! 3RD?!??!!?!?!
that's really cool! i seriously cannot wait for this movie!! 4th!
great scenes. (your pathetic!?!?!?!?!?!?!!)
Yay for movie news!
Hooray!
yayyyy!!!!
omg, i am so excited for this movie! i think that this has the most intricate story plot yet.
I can't wait for the movie to come out!!!!! 10?
Yay, but does anyone know why there are so many question marks in the article?
oooh i love the pictures! those lucky students who get to be extras!!!!
Yay! Their lucky!! I love to act.. Acting rocks..
That's cool I guess.
That's exciting!!
So according to the article, The corridors of Gloucester Kings School are alive with excitement' Well from what I saw today...no-one was even there. OK so there were few people wandering around the cloisters at the cathedral, they were bods from WB, one was wearing a badge that said 'HP6 set Location' other than a bit of carpentry going on in the garden of a huge platform and a room full of tools and set materials which was locked, I saw nothing. I happily walked around the cloisters for half an hour and saw no evidence that anything has been set up at the school at all...yet. But then filming doesn't start for another week...and that's at night.
I am so worried about what they are going to cut out of HBP. What if they cut out something big like Felix Felicis or. . . or. . . oh the posibillities for error are infinite!
Do you attend there dogstar or were you just touring(I find you lucky anyway even if nothing is happening)? You have to understand that as refreshing as it would be to write in an article: "we went there and everything seemed to be nice and boring as usual" it would not do good for the reporter's job status.
soo cool =)
omg i wish i could be in the movie any1 that is i am so jelious!!!!!!!!! i want 2 meet emma,danieland ruptert and every one else and i totaly cant wait 4 the new movie 2 come out there better be quittach i was so mad when i saw no weasley is the king song (obvilously i love it my name is after it!
very cool :) lucky ppl
tiassa, you are quite right, from a reporters point a view it would be boring. Sadly I don't attend the Kings School, or any of the schools asked to be extras (there were a few) but I am a local resident and I often walk through the grounds the cathedral and the surrounding area adjacent to the school. Kings is a boarding school but there was very little sign of the euphoria mentioned in the article, but there was some coming from the rugby pitch! (I jest, I didn't see a match, but you get my meaning)
very cool i can't wait!! i just hope it still looks like hogwarts as we know it now since it hasnt been filmed there since the first 2 movies....
I have a feeling it's one of the following Draco scenes!! Because if we have Harry following Draco around the corridors it could then lead to Moany Myrtles bathroom! But that's just my idea, this is so exciting!!
thats very cool! I loved the sets of the fist two movies very much and hogwarts was very nice back then! = ) It'll be weird though, switching again. I just got used to the hallways as they were! ; ) They probably need it for Myrtle's bathroom and maybe it just worked better! I really can't wait!!! ~Myrtle~
i wish i lived in gloucester and i was one of those students...
thats sooo kewl...i would love to be there!!!1
cool!
Wow! Exciting!
I'm really, really scared they're going to cut heaps out... like they did with OotP!!
Hey if they're filming in Gloucester they could get a special guest real life wizard in for a cameo role...James Simpson-Daniel's free in feb & march having been overlooked by Brian Ashton (again). Go on WB, sign him up!!!
Has anyone seen the new HBP movie poster where there are the silouettes (is that spelled like that?) of Harry and Dumbledore in the cave with the HP title and the tagline :"I'm safe with you harry" im not kiddin', i saw it on sum foreign website while i was searchin for sumthin completely different and i can't seem to remember the site!
HPUS 7 -- that poster was refuted as Fan Made, not an official release by WB.
I really hope the house elves are in this one. I think the screen writers will be backed in a corner on the 7th movie because they have had very little about house elves in the 4th and 5th movies. People who only watch the movies would not even know that Doby is now at Hogwarts working and would not even know Winky at all. And they become so important in the 7th book!
baby post!
Tiassa and i christen this post ... EDWARD!
HELLO EDWARD!
EDWARD KAPPA! (tiassa's idea)
sorry didnt mean that
HI EDWARD
HPUS- just to let you know, that poster fo HBP you mentioned up there ^^^ it is a fake, it was make by a fan. Not to dissapoint you or anything, just thought you should know before people got really excited about a HBP poster. :)
EDWARD!!! i LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!
AH wow i bet harrison and jd are looking at this laughing
hhh wellll
EDWARD KAPPA PICKLE!
wow!!!!!! if only i was one of those hogwarts students and it was real!:) can i get an ere' ere'!?:)
Does anyone know what scenes are being filmed here? I think they will be doing the confrontation in Myrtle's bathroom because the entrance to it is set in the cloisters. I went for a snoop with my friend Moony after school on Monday and there were a load of guys covering up gravestones in the floor and they gave us strange looks like they'd never seen fangirls before!
dogstar01 lol. yeah I do. thanks
ah what a cute little baby postie, Edward Kappa Pickle is, growing up nice and strong!
