20 Easter Eggs In Harry Potter Films You Didn’t Notice

12. M-A-G-I-C Telephone Box

Warner Bros.Warner Bros.Film: Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix

En route to his trial, Harry and Arthur Weasley must make the transition from the muggle world we€™re all too familiar with into the Ministry of Magic €“ our equivalent of parliament. Though there are many points of entry into the Ministry, Harry and Mr Weasley have to use the visitor€™s entrance which is a red, typically-British telephone box. This clever booth transports visitors from the ground level to the bustling Atrium of the Ministry.

Though you can€™t actually see it in the film€™s as Arthur€™s back blocks the camera, we know from the book that to activate the booth€™s magical qualities you must dial 6-2-4-4-2. If you look at your phone€™s keypad, these numbers spell out M-A-G-I-C. We just hope a muggle never enters the booth trying to place a call and accidentally types 62442 €“ memory charms can be a tricky business.
