I heard JK Rowling was going to be reading the new Harry Potter book tonight and it was going to be shown on TV. Does anyone know if it's on a specific channel, or just one of the news channels?

Yeah, sorry just found that out LOL - I really should consult Digiguide first!

Ah well... I'll leave this thread here for discussion of the event, should anyone wish to discuss it.

So, is Mr Mulhern going to make it from "Live in Edinburgh" at midnight to Maidstone for 9.25 tomorrow ?

And why all the fuss over a book and all these late night WHSmith openings ? Don't they realise it will still be in the shops tomorrow.

It's all a fiendish plot, Squarey, to make various members of TV Forum unavailable for posting, due to overnight work duties.

Hmm

Seems like the first part was shot earlier today, as suddenly after all the "Harry Potter A-Z" stuff the sky is pitch black!

Its a bit unusual seeing a programme full of children and hosted by Stephen Mulhern on at Midnight isn't it!

Yes, of all the presenters they chose him, he was absolutely terrible and should go back to MOM or whatever he does.
