Just the other day Harry Potter actor Rupert Grint
appeared on the BBC show A Question of Sport
. Rupert, who was the mystery guest on the show, re-enacted a scene from the movie Color of Money and demonstrated that he is actually a pretty good pool (snooker) player.

Ahh it's not working. Oh, I've never heard of that film - "Color of Money." heck, the makers can't spell. Stupid American spelling rules. Pool, snooker - I call it pool, or billiards.

Well its good to see that Rupert is having a great time outside of Harry Potter. Hes becoming a really distinguished celebrity here in Britain now and all over the world. So glad I have BBC over here so I get to see all of his appearances and Rupert rocked 'A Question Of Sport' everywhere but what was with that blonde, 'It's Ron Weasel' =S Go Steven Fry! Cal

Well, that was quite interesting. I was surprised that the players in the game didn't know who Rupert was :( That's sad...but I'm pretty much sure that most of HP fans and fans of Rupert would notice that it's him ;)

I saw that on the night but wasn't really paying attention until they were asked to guess who he was and i heard 'Ron Weasley' Then I watched as he potted a ball into the corner pocket without even looking. He's an amazing snooker player and I wouldn't want to play against him!
