The photo above looks as if it could be used as a corridor in Hogwarts, maybe for Harry running out of the bathroom after using Sectum Sempra.
Looking forward to seeing the movie and to seeing more and more reports on the making of the movie too.

I usually don't start getting excited about the movies this early in filming, but I am already looking so forward to HBP (one of my favorites of the books)! Keep the info from the sets coming!

Yes, it would be really cool to be an extra, but very unlikely to happen! =]

Didn't we get this story before? Like during the summer or something? Maybe it was about possibly filming here...
Well, this place looks beautiful, its perfect to film the Hogwarts scenes(which they probably are there). I hope we get some behind the scenes pictures of the trio filming, that would be great.

They are soooo lucky. I'd so love to be on one of the movies. Or even if they just filmed it at my school would be cool.

To the above saying that it works well: it does. Philosopher's Stone and possibly CoS were filmed there.
And having been there a few times, let me say that it is a stunning building

Sounds cool.
Those kids are all so lucky.
What I would give to be one of them and get at least a glimpse of one of the actors.
I am happy to hear the fim is coming along well.

The architecture is beautiful (remarkable organ as well), the cathedral is really an ideal setting for "Half-Blood Prince". I assume they will use it to film scenes in Hogwarts, I don't remember Harry as a very pious person.
