Several characters -- mostly recurring supporting players, but also a couple of newly introduced ones -- are killed, mostly via the Killing Curse. The tragedy of Snape's tortured life comes to an end. Live, From New York! And breaking into Gringott's? Go ahead. In Chapter 1 Voldemort uses the killing curse on muggle studies professor Burbage. But because Rickman knew, he told everyone else on set that it absolutely wasn't the case. These aren't three kids any more: They're a year-old hero and his best friends, willing to give up everything to save the wizarding world.

    NOMINATIONS ARE ANNOUNCED FOR CBBC me and my movie award, in association with BAFTA CBBC and BAFTA are proud to announce that four young film-makers have been nominated in this year’s CBBC me and my movie award in association with BAFTA. This exclusive award inspires and enables children across the UK to make their own films and tell their own stories as part of a BBC Learning film-making initiative - CBBC me and my movie . The initiative was featured on Blue Peter throughout the year, with each presenter creating their own short film to demonstrate the production process. The project has also been supported by Newsround and CBBC Presentation. In September more than 20,000 people attended the BBC Learning and CBBC experience at the Mayor’s Thames Festival, where children were invited to meet CBBC and BAFTA stars, and were offered hot tips on film-making, and the chance to go behind the scenes in the Newsround studio, be a reporter and have a go at recording their own TV links. There were also free film-making workshop events across the UK, inspiring children to make their own films and giving them access to equipment and expert support. Children aged between 6 -14 years submitted over 500 short films. The resulting entries were judged by a panel of industry experts from CBBC and BAFTA, who shared judging duties with some well known celebrity faces, including; Blue Peter’s Andy Akinwolere, The Spiderwick Chronicles star Freddie Highmore, Harry Potter actress Bonnie Wright and actors Hugh Bonneville and Colin Salmon amongst others.

  • The Sea Production Notes Organic
    Directed by Stephen Brown Screenplay by John Banville Starring: Ciarán Hinds, Charlotte Rampling, Natascha McElhone, Rufus Sewell, Bonnie Wright and Sinéad Cusack Running Time: 87 mins Distributor Contact: Press Contact: Sarah Townsend / Independent Distribution Sarah Corney / Organic [email protected] [email protected] +44 (0)20 3372 0989 SYNOPSIS Grieving after the death of his wife, art historian Max Morden (Ciarán Hinds) returns to the sleepy seaside resort where he spent summers as a child. Max lodges at a boarding house he once frequented, where frosty proprietor Miss Vavasour (Charlotte Rampling), and eccentric resident Blunden (Karl Johnson), now reside. Before long - and despite protestations from his daughter Clare (Ruth Bradley) - Max revisits the ghosts of his past. Max's mind returns to an idyllic summer in 1955 when, as a child, he encountered the Grace family. Carlo (Rufus Sewell) and Connie (Natascha McElhone) were unlike any adults he had met before: nonchalant, bohemian and filled with worldly grace and candour. Young Max (Matthew Dillon) befriends the young Grace twins, Chloe (Missy Keating) and Myles (Padhraig Parkinson), and his fascination for this unconventional clan transforms into intimacy and love. Meanwhile, the children's young nanny Rose (Bonnie Wright), an outsider like Max, regards the Grace's new surrogate with quiet suspicion. While Max attempts to deal with the loss of his wife, and recalls moments with his departed partner Anna (Sinéad Cusack), he also confronts a distant trauma from the past. The Sea is a haunting, uplifting, meditation on the human condition - at times elegiac, poetic, and nostalgic.
