Be very careful if you ever see young Mr Radcliffe out and about. All it takes is a casual stroke of your arms and a few polite words and...BOOM! You'll be out like a light.
Last Saturday night the very nice Daniel Radcliffe popped along to the Jonathon Ross Show for a chat. Jonathan, a huge Harry Potter fan, delighted in asking his guest who would win in a fight bewteen the boy wizard and Twilight hero Edward. Dan's answer: Harry Potter, obvs! When asked whether he got tingly feeling when he hears the famous Harry Potter theme music (which Wossy clearly does!), he said his “heart dies a little bit every time I hear it as a ringtone" and that even though he didn’t really expect to feel emotional, when he filmed the last scene of Harry Potter he “wept like a child”. Aww!
Once filming was over Daniel gave all of the crew gifts (cute!) and revealed that he got a rather, ahem, special gift from his co-star Rupert Grint.
Rupert had very thoughtfully chosen to give Daniel a trumpet. And not just any trumpet. One that he had self-engraved. With an actual kit. Nope, he didn’t grab a compass and scratch his initials into it. Rupert, who Dan says is a bit, well, mad, owns an engraving kit. Apparently the engraved message is too rude for telly!
A trumpet is a bit of a strange gift for someone who doesn’t play the trumpet! That’s like giving us a rowing machine. Actually, if anyone fancies gifting us with a rowing machine, we’ll happily take it. We’re sure we’ll want to exercise eventually…
When asked about his friendship with fellow Potter star R-Pattz (*sigh*), Dan says the pair have a strange relationship where they only really communicate through journalists.
Not that he’s intimidated by his old co-star’s handsome, swoonworthy-ness. Dan only has to touch a girl for them to faint on the floor!
One of our fave moments in this interview is seeing Dan and Rupert meeting a Japanese Harry Potter super fan who is, bizarrely, very taken with Rupert’s eyelashes. She touches them and then sniffs her finger.
We wonder what Rupe’s eyelashes smell of? Any thoughts, heatworlders?
