20 Easter Eggs In Harry Potter Films You Didn’t Notice
8. United In Film
The marriage of Lenny Henry and Dawn French may have come to a sudden yet amicable ending after twenty-five years in 2010 but the two will at least forever be united in The Prisoner of Azkaban as they both make fleeting appearances.
Nowadays Lenny Henry is known for his series of obnoxious Premier Inn ads (whatre the chances that two mentions of Premier Inn come up in one Harry Potter Easter Eggs list?!) but a long time ago he was a successful comedian and presenter and even had an exceptional stint as Othello on stage. In Harry Potter he voiced the talking shrunken head aboard the Knight Bus.
Henrys ex-wife Dawn French once starred in the Vicar of Dibley. In Harry Potter she has the somewhat dubious role of playing the Fat Lady in the portrait which conceals the entrance to Gryffindor Tower.
