A new report from the set of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince has appeared online in which the author describes meeting Daniel Radcliffe and Tom Felton, as well as visiting the Great Hall, the Burrow and Diagon Alley.
You can read the full report here
, but a few snippets are below:
I saw The Burrow both the inside and outside sets; the outside set had been burnt out in a Death Eater attack. The inside of The Burrow was amazing, the attention to detail. I climbed up the stairs to Ron's room, the bedrooms aren't there but the corridors have doors coming off them with pictures and ornaments. One of the doors had a picture of mushroom on it. Downstairs there were two clocks, one with the whole family's names on and scissors for hands, the other was smaller with a list of jobs to do. There were even postcards to Ron on the bookcase, howlers (or just letters like paper aeroplanes), a wizarding newspaper on a coffee table and children's painting of magical creatures framed on the walls. The guy showing us around said that it was the hardest set to build because nothing was straight or regular sized.
We walked around Diagon Alley. Ollivanders had been destroyed, all the windows were smashed and it was trashed. The shops had complete interiors in case the camera caught a glimpse inside by accident. Quality Quidditch supplies had a Quidditch equipment display, uniforms on dummies and drawers full of clothing. Florean Fortescue's had fake ice cream sundaes lining the walls on shelves. Florish and Blotts had hundreds of books inside the doorway piled up and on shelves. The large books in the windows are actually Watford phone directories covered!
Thanks to the Snitchseeker for the tip.
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince opens in theatres November 21st, 2008.

That is so cool, I always wondered what it looked like inside the set. I wish I could visit it and see all of the magic that happens in creating Harry Potter films

It’s to bad they got their pictures taken away. I know Warner Brothers does want the pictures posted everywhere but still.
