Thanks to LadyLongbottom for finding a new article from October 2007 when Matt visited Staffs University!  The article also comes with 2 new photos, see those here in the gallery!

That Tom and Katy Thing has been produced by third year students studying the Advanced Studio Production module.

Matthew, who is about to begin filming the sixth film – Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince – in December, said he was delighted to work with the students.  He has appeared alongside the likes of Robbie Coltrane, Gary Oldman and Maggie Smith since starting out in the films as an 11-year-old.”I’ve sat next to Alan Rickman in the canteen and then watched him transform himself for the camera,” he said. “It’s fantastic to learn from actors who have such great ability.”

That Tom and Katy Thing is the second programme the students have made in the past two years and was streamed live on the internet.

This morning I come with another photo of Matt from his meet-up with the Hogwarts Express train the Olton Hall!   See the photo here in the gallery (I really like this one)!

A new article in the Yorkshire Posts mentions that Matt was in York recently to meet up with the train named “Olton Hall” who is in the Harry Potter films. You can see a photo here in the gallery! (I’m trying to find the larger version)

He said: “It’s great that so many Harry Potter fans have the chance to see and even ride behind the biggest star of the films. Seeing all the visitors flock around Olton Hall at the National Railway Museum today reminded me just how excited everyone gets around absolutely anything to do with the films.

“I’m sure the visitors must be even more exhilarated on Sundays when the engine is actually steamed up to take them for a ride.”
