Mr. Jonathan Tebbs, owner of A Barn Full of Brass Beds
in the UK has been left spellbound after his firm was chosen to restore
nine beds at his workshops for Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
The brass beds will be prepared by Grimsby firm Fenners, Wickham Road, Grimsby Docks, before being brought back to their former glory by Mr. Tebbs.
Set dressers for Warner Bros have paid precise attention to detail and want brass beds for the scenes.
The Hogwarts gang visit Ron Weasley's parents and are camping in a tent. Although from the outside it is a small tent, once inside it opens up into a large dormitory with bunk beds and a double bed for the Weasley's.
Mr. Tebbs says this of the professionalism of Warner Bros.:
"The set dressers are interesting people, very down to earth, they think if a job is worth doing, it is worth doing well. Maybe they hope the attention to detail will rub off on the actors and if they are around interesting stuff it will help them perform better."
Now we can rest that there will be a scene from the Quidditch World Cup in Goblet of Fire.

That's good! I was afraid they would take that out and it is a big part of the book! But I've been hearing that they may not have the Dursleys or the Yule Ball!! I think I will cry. We will miss Dudley eating the toffee! They better not leave out tons of parts in this movie like they did in PoA or I'm going to be sooo mad!!! :(:(

Good thing too - I always hoped the would show the world cup as they needed to explain what a Portkey was, and for that they really had to go to the Quidditch world cup!
Let's just hope they really ramp up the speed and FX for it as like it says in the book, it's another level of Quidditch entirely!!

The QWC is significant only bcoz of the appearance of the Dark Mark.. I'm wondering how much of it they're gonna include, not to mention the difficulty of mounting the FX for this part... but better not keep my hopes up that they will show my favorite Ron Weasley QWC moments.
But I really do hope that they dont mess with my brave, loyal and funny Ron Weasley this time. Keep him true to character. Warner Bros. should make the Harry-Ron friendship a central theme of this movie if only to make up for weakening Ron's character in PoA to a wimp and a comical relief. This is where they fight and make-up, and where Harry proves that his best friend Ron is the one he will miss the most. Plus of course the sweet and funny Ron/Hermione moments!

Wow that is great that this will be in the movie. I still hope they don't cut to much out to fit other things in. If I had my way the movie would be like 5 hours long to make sure everything was in it!

I am glad and all, but this is my least favorite part of GoF. I don't like the long drawn out scene, and there was, in my opinion, no need for it. However, the scene w/ the Death Eaters and Barty Jr. are very important, so the Cup is needed.

Okay, so I can breath a sigh of relief there. I hope to find out soon that many other good parts were left in the script.

That's awesome. I hope that they show the Yule Ball also. I hope they are good at showing the 3 tasks, too. This movie should be by far the best one. Keep your fingers crossed!!!

YES! Finally I'm not going to miss out on my Quidditch fix! They robbed me of Oliver Wood's final year, but I'm happy they're not robbing me of the World Cup!
