Harry Potter actress Emma Watson (Hermione Granger) will take part in the lighting of the Oxford Street Christmas Lights on Monday, Nov. 15. Ms. Watson will join other celebrities to take part in the turn-on of the light display which is being sponsored by the Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban DVD release. There will also be a Harry Potter themed light show each night through Jan. 5.
"This year's Oxford Street Christmas Lights will be more magical than ever before as characters from Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban brighten up Britain's biggest shopping street. To delight all Harry Potter fans even more, each night there will be a spectacular Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban light show. During this breathtaking display, the spellbinding 21st century lights will be choreographed to the film's soundtrack, with a finale of Harry casting the Patronus charm."

Yow wow! The light show choreographed to the PoA soundtrack sounds just incredible! I would love to see it, of course, but, er, I don't think I'll be able to make it. From the description, the bit Emma is participating in sounds a bit like (a much cooler version of) the Rockefeller Center tree lighting in NYC. Stars, lights, holiday cheer and all. It's funny to me, for some reason, that it's sponsored by the Prisoner of Azkaban DVD release though.

Wow! Emma is going to enjoy turning these lights on - I only wish that she was doing something that has more substance. Emma is about so much more than Christmas lights.
However, the event should be fun. I hope someone can get pictures!

Go, Emma go! Her personality is so vibrant, she's a perfect choice for flipping the switch to illuminate a holiday bedecked street. Yeah! I wish I could see it in person. Surely, HPANA or someone will get pics.
