Leading up to the previously mentioned upcoming interview with J.K. Rowling and Stephen Fry, Bloomsbury has released a press release about Living With Harry, a segment to be featured on on BBC Radio 4. In addition to mentioning the seventh Harry Potter book, Rowling talks about her favorite author and Fry talks about how he performs the voices of the characters. Here's a tidbit of the Bloomsbury press release:
Stephen Fry asks about the relationship between Harry and Voldemort and J.K. Rowling firmly rejects the suggestion that he is Harry's father ("that's a Star Wars question") and promises they won't turn out to be Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker.
Reminder: Be sure to tune into BBC Radio 4
Saturday, December 10th, 9:00 AM (GMT) to hear the full half-hour interview. Additionally, you can listen to BBC 4 live on their website stream
, if you have Real Player and happen to be awake at that hour.

That is a good interview! Of course LV isn't Harry's father! The book has so much detail on how much Harry looks exactly like his father.

Too right! Harry Potter is too dignified to have the same conclusive ending as Star Wars! It just wouldn't be original!

That would have been an interesting twist, but i'm glad it won't be turning out like that. Can't wait until the 7th book comes out.

Thank goodness for small favors and no Star Wars endings. That would definitely make me sick, and clearly makes no sense either.

Of course Voldie-poo is not Harry's dad!!! I've always thought that it would ruin the whole thing! Thank god Jo thinks along the same lines! I mean, it's been done before, and it is simply not the point of the story!
Apart from that, I wish I could listen to that interview... But it's way to early where I live, plus on a saturday morning...

Hopefully this will be on BBC Radio 4's listen again feature. I have a feeling I'll still be in bed at 9am tomorrow morning and so may drift off whilst listening to parts of it on the radio. SO with 'listen again' it will be available for streaming for the next seven days. And those that have the technology, know-how and spare time can record it onto a downloadable format.
Looking forward to Stephen Fry... oh and Jo of course!
