Harry Potter Stars Return to Hogwarts' Magical Kitchens
28 Nov
Summary
- Fred and George Weasley actors filmed a new baking show on the Hogwarts set.
- The Great Hall's original set smelled of cooking food and 'smelly socks'.
- The actors recall playing soccer and cricket on iconic Harry Potter sets.
James and Oliver Phelps, known as the Weasley twins, have returned to the hallowed grounds of Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden, the iconic filming location for the Harry Potter series. They are currently filming the second season of Food Network's "Harry Potter: Wizards of Baking," bringing a decidedly sweeter scent to the legendary Great Hall set.
The actors vividly recall the sensory experience of filming in the Great Hall during their Harry Potter days. Oliver Phelps shared that the set, filled with real food props for feasts, often carried the smell of roasting meats and oily vegetables, humorously adding that it sometimes evoked the scent of 'smelly socks.' This contrasts sharply with the current filming environment, filled with the aromas of frosting and cake.
