Q: How did you get the part?

A: My drama teacher [at school] called out my name at an assembly and asked if I'd like to do the audition. I went up with a couple of my friends for a bit of a laugh. Then it got more and more serious. It was really scary, but it was great.

Q: How are you and Hermoine alike?

A: She loves cats, and so do I. I adore animals, but cats are my favourite. I've got two, Bubbles and Domino.

Q: Is there anything that you don't like about Hermoine?

A: She's a bit too [concerned with] rules. She overdoes it when Harry gets the Firebolt and she seeks out Professor McGonagall. She was obvoiusly worried, but I probably would've had a talk with my friend before I sought out a teacher.

Q: Was there a scene that was particularly hard to do?

A: Yes. Neville comes up to me with this toad, Trevor, and says, "Do you want to kiss Trevor goodnight?" Every time he did this I burst into laughter. I was supposed to give him an "I hate you" look, but I couldn't help myself. It took me about eight takes to get it.
