![J.K. Rowling 2012 Interview - Harry Potter: Beyond the Page [High Res]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/aA_QYZBWQ88/mqdefault.jpg)
Every time I see videos of people talking about Harry Potter sites in Edinburgh I'm always surprised that nobody mentions Fettes College. It may not have been an inspiration for J.K. Rowling but it would be a massive coincidence if the films hadn't been inspired by it. I see it every day and every time I look at it I marvel at how much it looks like Hogwarts!
Good info, but u should move the camera or cut to shots of the place /area u r talking about. Otherwise its hard to visualise where u r. Show ur surrounding basically.
What a bonnie girl. Hope you had a good time in Edinburgh. Scotland thanks you for comming.
Once again I can’t thank you enough. Your video really helped find cool spots and must say the museum context was great and worth the wait to get in❤thank you!!
Glad to hear you've enjoyed it! .)
Wow. Science.... but also magic!
I can confirm as a pupil we most definitely do learn magic
(but shh don't tell anyone)
Slytherin represent
Hi Voldy
@@nasrin_05 hiya! You're friendly
@@almoistthere I'm a Slytherin too :)
@@nasrin_05 Hell Yeah!
Voldy did toi miss your noes 👃👃👃👃👃👃
Edinburgh has such cool places. Too bad we couldn’t visit the bar, but we still have the good ol’ Lucky one. I’m coming back soon to hang with you, my Slytherin friend .D
They're gonna be rolling out more soon! They told me they're doing a Tolkien one in the summer, I am deffo psyched for that. I wish you could come during the festival, even just for a long weekend, to experience the city at its liveliest! (and some might argue also its most annoying .DD)
The fact that JK Rowling now denies any connection to places in Edinburgh inspiring her books is hilarious.
Cool video! Really makes me wanna visit Edinburgh!
It's a super magical place! You'd love it .)
The coffee shop "Spoon" is also one of the places in Edinburgh J.K Rowling apparently wrote some of the books.
bumble345 Why would anyone care about a cafe where a stupid children's book was partly written?
Jerry Krause ask the millions of fuckers that queue outside
Bumble345 is correct anyone who lives in Edinburgh knows that what is Spoons cafe above Black medicine coffee shop on the corner of Drummond st has the official plaque recognising that when it was Nicolson's coffee shop/cafe J K Rowling was using that space to do her writing there in the mid 1990's. I used to pop in there after dropping my daughter off at nursery around the corner. It was cheap and the Elephant House has always been pricy. The papers were free to read and they topped your coffee up from the jug for free as well. I was also broke at the same time and so made sense for her to initially be writing there in the early days when she was a struggling single mother. Her brother in law part owned Nicolson's at that time as well. I think you might have to re-shoot your film, sorry! Here's a link to the local Edinburgh newspaper story from 2017 20th anniversary.

Lets us just mention "the worst witch" "the books of Magic" and "a summer of magic". From these Rowling lifted virtually all her work.
I think I should find out if the Gryffindor is my dormitory or not :). And it was also really well filmed, well done Simon ;-)
I wish you just TRUSTED ME .DD
Loved this video & your gorgeous look! Editing on point too! ♥ Hope I'll make it to Edinburgh one day, so many cool places to explore! XO
The Kawaii Planet Hey look forward to paying 200 plus pounds for one night in an hotel and 21 pounds for a plate of pasta without wine.
@@stevehay964 The trick is to stay just on the outskirts of Edinburgh, Livingston, Broxburn, Bathgate , Musselburgh, or Portobello and just get the train, into Haymarket, or Waverley. You can also get the bus into Princes Street also. That way your accommodation costs will be more than halved, as staying in Edinburgh City centre, especially in August, when the Edinburgh, fringe festival is taking place, you'll end up paying through the nose mate. Take that from a Scotsman, who stays just outside Glasgow, ok? : )
I am moving to Edinburgh from Amsterdam to go to university there 🏴. So excited!
Yay! How does it work this year? Does the academic year start in September as usual or are they planning any changes? .)
Kakibot I have not really been informed about that yet! I do have to self-isolate for two weeks at my appartement in Edinburgh but nonetheless, can’t complain ♥️. I did however hear from some people that the introduction week will get cancelled which is understandable.
@@fabienne144 Oooh are you moving super soon then? I am kinda secretly hoping the self-isolation rules will relax around August but who knows! >.>
There's also a Scrimgeour grave in the kirkyard
Great video as always! I hate to think how much $$ we spent at the shop on Victoria Street but they had such wonderful Harry Potter memorabilia and it was delightful to watch the little kids looking though the store eyes wide open. Greyfriars is definitely one of our favorite spots in all Edinburgh. Keep making videos because they’re always so enjoyable and excellent editing by the way.
Thank you so much! I will definitely need to go back to Victoria Street and get that Slytherin headband, that way I can represent my house even when it's not scarf weather anymore! .D
I found out that I had one of the first 500 books printed with the wand error.
@@GRIMSBONIAN13 what wand error?
@@mikeyp0131 The list for what harry needed for Hogwarts it says I wand twice
@@GRIMSBONIAN13 I never knew that. Thanks mate :)
Great video. Nice, steady camera work too. Edinburgh is just so brilliant to wander around. I've been many, many times but still get lost in the 'old town' where you were and keep discovering new parts. I was waiting for Greyfriars Bobby just outside a bit with tourists rubbing his nose for luck. Didn't know McGonagle was buried there and don't know the others. Thanks for sharing, much enjoyed!
Thanks for the video. I would love to visit it. I didn't know Edinburgh has this many Harry Potter places. Good
This entire thing is fantastic. And you are now required to take me to these places in May.
I have many books from Harry Potter in different languages in English,French,Spanish,Dutch,Russian,Greek,German, ltalian and so on... l like to read Harry Potter's books in different languages
You should get one in Scots! .)
All together now " Expecto Patronum " not too sure, there a spell to find the perfect cake shop. 😉
Where I founding this pub with magical drink? And your last minuts movie's have magical light's. Can you tell me please where I same found this
Want to visit Edinburgh, Nice video !
Ommmgggg if I don't get an interview in Edinburgh I'm gonna lose my mind. THESE PLACES ARE SO FRIGGIN CUTE AHHGHG. I want a Ravenclaw jumper so badly 😢
I mean you know you can come over WITHOUT making it a work opportunity trip, rrrright? .D
I'm going to Edinburgh in February 2020, could anyone recommend somewhere sort of cheap to stay? Thanks xx
Are you also a Slytherin or just like green?
shout out for my fellow
#Hufflepuffs
Didn't JK start writing Harry Potter when she was in Portugal? She was teaching English there and was married to a Portuguese man.
She already started it in England in 1990.
What about Potterow? :) And about the real cafe she used to go to? Elephant house is just one of the places. Spoon is the original ;)
Ahhh yes, you're right! Elephant house is definitely just the one that has capitalised on it the most! Haha. But I have a feeling that I've read Spoon cafe didn't quite make it through the lockdown? .(
You're accent sounds Dutch, am I right?
Czech, actually! But I take it as a compliment! .)
Would you care telling me where to buy in Edinburgh a wand and how much?
The Harry Potter shop that was in this video sells wands I think for about £30
now that the video is done for two years, is it possible to add the info of the six places you've been in the info box? and though this is your early work, it was kind of weird that you didnt even include the handprints of the author...
7:26 , don't blink.
How much did pop up cost? I've just booked a ticket, but want to know how much it costs..couldn't find that info anywhere
OhanCockett Hiya! All of the drinks seemed to be £8 , the beers less than that but I can't remember exactly!
Kakibot that’s really helpful thanks! The sessions two hours I think so that means I can budget easily. Thank you very much!
You are stunning
I hope you are a Hibs supporter Katibot.
I live here lol
Is it really pronounced edin-bruh? And not edin-burgh?
Ida løvinden more like Eden-bruh than edin-bruh
Hmmm, I'd say some Scottish accents would lean towards Eden-bruh but in my English-heavy chosen family it's Edin-bruh .)
Craig M she’s lived there for almost a decade so I think that helps, lol
Harry Potter tours start off at Greyfriars Bobby's statue. ua-cam.com/video/hfwg4GgX7Uo/v-deo.html

Just in Edinburgh now MYSELF

You are funny and gorgeous
Harry Potter has nothing to do with Edinburgh nor is Rowling ,who is from Gloucester in England.
She actually wrote some of the first harry potter books and the last one while living there so...
Yes born in England, lived in Edinburgh from 1993 and that's the city she wrote the books,husband also Scottish and she classes Edinburgh as her home.
Angus you are a wanker .
anchor makes video too boring and lenghty
anchor still appreciates your comment as it helps her algorithm!
Harry potter has nothing to do with Edinburgh. It's just immature idiots being irritating. What next? Trainspotting's Edinburgh? A sorry trudge round sights of addiction, despair and an untimely death?
Hi Jerry, I'm not entirely sure of the point you're trying to make here. Are the Harry Potter books or characters irritating to you, or do you find the idea of literary tours and location associations with authors vexing? There are several Trainspotting tours in Edinburgh, because while the themes and tones of Renton and co's narratives have a certainly dark quality, the world they live in is still an interesting one, and people do find interest in learning more about Irvine Welsh's perspective with regards to the settings being portrayed. The end line with Begby's father going 'trainspotting', referring to his dossing around the former Leith Central Railway station is, I think, interesting on multiple levels, not the least of which is that as a Leither, the history of the suburb and it's fall and subsequent gentrification, is an fascinating subject.
Regarding JK Rowling and her connection to Edinburgh, sure, there's no involvement with the capital in any of the 7 books, however there's a great deal of history in the city surrounding the series' creation. I hope you're not dismissive of people's curiosity when it comes to a book series, or of people's choice to find joy and enthusiasm around a hobby?
I hope also that your comment surrounding "immature idiots being irritating", isn't referring to an innocuous fan group, particularly since, as the books released more or less yearly, for a sizable group of now adults those books coincided with their own transition into adulthood, and there's great personal value to be had in formative fiction appreciated through one's adolescence. If this was your intention, my recommendation is you try to be less dismissive going forward, or if these sort of videos upset you, feel free to skip to a channel with content more in line with areas with which you do find appreciation.
Ffs who stepped on your toes mate. Theyre just having a good fun time my sweet sweet friend, i kid you not!
Literary? Book sales and timeless prose are not essentially synonymous. Great on her for very entertaining works, and I'm happy for her success, but an equal to Austin and Wharton? Let's give it a hundred years. And yes, I've read the books and gone to parties and had a great time. Time will tell.
The Buckfast tour of Coatbridge, Airdrie, Cumbernauld, Bellshill and Motherwell! PMSL
