He is such a talented actor. His acting skills are faultless. He was absolutely brilliant in Cracker, which in my opinion was one of the best British TV shows ever made, and it's a damn shame he hasn't made any more. I couldn't picture anyone else in the role of Dr. Fitzgerald.
interestingly severus snapes nieces nephews and godchildren insisted he took the part as severus...
interestingly enough it is about old fashioned values etc and theres a whole bunch of kids wish it was real and would go there..that says alot about modern world...
@foxylady6688 same thing with the man who plays dumbledore, his granddaughter wanted him to take the part, he didn;t want it at first, the one that died..
Hagrid is one of my all-time favorite characters. And Robbie Coltrane seems like a really funny guy, and really nice. He looks so different without all the costume and stuff on. (duh.)
Always admired this big guy, I hope I get to meet him one day. Loved 'The Comic Strip', loved 'Cracker', love him!!! Soooooooo funny, so talented, so cute!
oh, and if you get the chance tell harry his lightning scar is just some dried up ketchup. he just needs to scrub some club soda on it and itll be fine.
I think it's funny how the BBC promotes this on the basis of its being a 'free' video. Not for we licence payers! And isn't everything on YouTube free?
Well, Sean Connery has some sort of weird bastardised voice that I've never heard in Scotland really. Rrumour has it it's a result of him visiting to a speech coach because no-one in the film industry could understand him originally.
Thing is The Harry Potter films are god awful, but Robbie coltrane and Alan Rickman actually fit their characters. They alone save them from being unwatchable.
We theoretically use the metric system. I have a wholly metric temperature sense, can estimate distances to walk in metres with ease, but can only do heights in feet and inches. This is both common and normal. We are a complex people.
I went to school with his son and Robbie still lives in my village. I see him in to co-p ALL the time. He's a really lovely guy. And I remember after it was announced he was playing him he came to our school and read us some of the books. And he bought in some of his classics cars once as well.

My favourite Scottish accents
are Robbie here,

They pronounce last like "LAHST", not like Sean Connery, Ewan McGregor, James McAvoy who pronounce like "LAEST".
I PREFER "LAHST", unlike other Koreans!
