Last July we told you
of a documentary on Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling and that it was set to air in the UK this winter.
The documentary will include scenes of when Jo turned over her complete manuscript of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, quotes from JKR, her publishers and her husband, Dr. Neil Murray.
Some people will loathe it, they will absolutely loathe it. But the thing is that's how it should be, and for some people to love it others must loathe. That's just in the nature of the plot. Some people won't be happy because what they wanted to happen won't have happened. "And to an extent there's so much expectation from the hard core fans that I'm not sure I could ever match up to it. I'm actually really, really happy with it, and it's very odd to think that this will be broadcast after loads of people have read it and people may right now be throwing things at the screen.
You can read a full description of the preview courtesy of TLC.
The documentary JK Rowling... A Year in the Life will air on ITV on December 30th.

I'm not sure about the loathing part but hopefully not a lot of people would actually loathe her after watching that documentary. I mean, after all, she's the genius behind HP so fans should be able to understand everything

I'm really excited to see this. Maybe this sounds dorky, but I'm really excited to see Jo actually at work writing. I'm sure that it'll appear online shortly after it airs, so everyone in other areas outside the UK can view it.

Well, maybe if that comes out this year in the UK, maybe we will get to see it next fall or so. I hate it when they torture us fans in the U.S. by not getting to see certain documentaries and such! Oh well...
