In this episode, we discuss places we need to see more of in the TV show. Enjoy!

Topics/Summary:

· 1:37 Diagon Alley. In the book, this is the meeting point of the Muggle and magical worlds. It is the first place Harry sees that is truly magical, and also acts as a sanctuary for him later on. When it is taken over, that should mean something for the larger state of the wizarding world.

· 10:29 The Burrow. We get a lot of the Burrow in the film, but it’s not exactly the same feel. The Burrow is a representation of what Harry lost, and the life he could have had. That doesn’t really come across in the films, and the TV show should focus on that more.

· 16:30 The Hogwarts Grounds. We never really get to explore the grounds. Something standing in exploration’s way is the plot. With the limited time of a film, we have to have a reason to go out into the grounds. But with hours more in a TV, we should be able to walk about the grounds without a direct reason that relates to the plot.

· 21:32 The Ministry of Magic. This is a weirder one, but world building is important. The Ministry works in the shadows and has a big effect on the plot. We should be able to understand more about how it works and why Voldemort taking it over means so much.

· 27:04 Hagrid’s Hut. It is a magical house and a cool place, but it is also where the trio are in danger. If it’s being out of bed after dark or running from werewolves, they seem to be in peril in Hagrid’s hut. But I’d rather the hut be a place for them to decompress and feel safe. That would be much more valuable than fearing for their lives. When it burns down, it would be a stronger symbol if it was a warm, happy place.
