Jamie Waylett, the actor who plays Vincent Crabbe in the Harry Potter films, updated his online diary with some brief details about recent filming
for Goblet of Fire in Oxford:
I spent nearly the whole week filming just one scene, with Maggie Smith, Brendan Gleeson, Tom [Felton], Josh [Herdman] and Dan [Radcliffe]. It was great fun, I really enjoyed it.
As you will know, I'm not allowed to say too much about the filming, but I think that scene could turn out to be one of the funniest in all of the movies!
One can safely conjecture that this is the passage in the book where Mad-Eye Moody (Brendan Gleeson) turns Draco Malfoy into a ferret. A recent report of ferrets being filmed for the movie seems to offer further credence.
Thanks to HarryLatino.com
for the tip! That site was also able to ask Waylett a few exclusive questions and has sent us the English translations:
HarryLatino: How is filming with Mike Newell? What are the differences between the directors?
Jamie: All three directors have had very different styles, but all have been good to work with, they all knew we were children and they have helped us improve with their experience of filming.
Are you enjoying the filming?
Filming is usually fun, tutoring is OK, it's the waiting to go on set that can be very boring.
Which is your relationship with the other staff?
All the cast and crew get on very well, it's like a big family, we are all pleased to meet each other at the studio and talk about what we have done since we last met.
Have you spoken with J.K. Rowling?
I have only met J.K. Rowling twice, she gave me a big hug and told me I was just as she imagined Crabbe when she was writing her books.
Jamie was recently in Spain on holiday. "I had a great time in Salou," he told HarryLatino. "I have been on holiday to Spain three times and really enjoyed each time, the people were so friendly and the food was good."

The ferret scene will make me laugh so hard, people in the theater will think that I am having a seizure. But no shock there, it has happened before. Jaime seems like a really cool kid, I'm glad he's enjoying filming. I wish I could go though. Blast my broke-ness! *laughs*

I loved that scene! I can't wait to see the movie. I was a little worried that it wouldn't be as funny as POA, because Alfonso Cuaron isn't directing it but it sounds as though it will be just as good as POA if not better. (Sorry about the run on sentence...just got carried away....I love HP!)

I wish i was in the movies. I'm guessing that he is refering to "Draco the amazing bouncing ferret" scene. I so can't wait for it to come out.

I think they are trying to spoil us with all of this info because the movie wont come out for another year... I am not saying this is a bad thing but i kinda wish they would let off a little for a while until it gets closer to filming wrap up. I wonder if spain is a nice place because ive never been there... i hope it is the scene with the bouncing ferret malfoy... that is going to be hilarious.

It could be the ferret scene, but it could be lots of other scenes, too. I am so glad to see that Crabbe and Goyle are back in full force after Goyle's strange absence from PoA. Sounds like Jamie doesn't like school too much!
