Will the harassment ever end? The Dursley Family are physically abused and rattled, not by wizards this time but by a MEMBER OF THEIR OWN FAMILY. Elsewhere, Hagrid exercises his newfound power as a teacher and Severus Snape outs himself as a drag queen. Uhh, Ron Weasley.

A thrown together Pink Flamingos remix started and completed in less than five minutes (I am not proud of this). It is silly.

Again – as a result of grating boredom – I’ve gone and edited out all mentions and appearances of Harry Potter/Daniel Radcliffe. One thing that’s become clear to me: the better the movies get, the harder it is to edit Harry out. God knows how I’m going to make Potter Minus Potter: The Prisoner of Azkaban.

Also, apologies for the audio error at the end of the Crabbe/Goyle plotline, I have no idea what caused that. I’ll do an audio-swap later on.

For Dom’s birthday I embarked on realising an idea we had years ago: removing every mention and appearance of Harry Potter/Daniel Radcliffe from the film series. We are both stunned at how well it functions without Harry, and how it seems to work on its own unintentional logic. Potter Minus Potter: The Philosopher’s Stone is the story of a half-giant courier of illegal items, acting as a middleman between Albus Dumbledore and his behind-the-counter clients. He terrorises a middle-class, average British family while also living a double-life as a caretaker at Hogwart’s School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Potter Minus Potter: The Philosopher’s Stone is a cinematic study of schizophrenia, surveillance and the underbelly that lies in every neighbourhood.
