New photos from the set of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone have been revealed as cameras once again rolled today in London's Waterloo Station.
Several key cast members were spotted on set, including Dominic McLaughlin as the Boy Wizard, Alastair Stout as Ron Weasley, Katherine Parkinson as Molly Weasley, Amos Kitson as Dudley Dursley, and Daniel Rigby as Vernon Dursley.
Tristan and Gabriel Harland, who play Fred and George Weasley, and Ruari Spooner's Percy Weasley were also spotted shooting scenes.
In terms of where this fits into HBO's adaptation of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, we'd bet on this being when Harry and his friends return to London at the end of the school year from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
John Hopkins (Poldark, Toy Story 5) was also spotted, and it's rumoured that he's playing Hermione Granger's father. In the books, he was a Muggle dentist who, along with his wife, was proud of his daughter's achievements as a wizard.
Hermione was forced to alter her parents' memories and give them new identities as Wendell and Monica Wilkins to protect them from the Death Eaters. After the Second Wizarding War ended, Hermione found Mr Granger and his wife in Australia and returned their memories.
Parkinson recently broke her silence on being part of Harry Potter when she said, "The children on that show are so completely wonderful. It's probably not a good thing to say this, but I'm lining them up for my daughters, haha! I really respect them."
"I'm back filming in a couple of weekends. I haven't done much yet, but what I have done has been really, really thrilling."
