Harry Potter?! Here?!

Today, a friend was telling me that she took her dog for a walk down the road from her house into the woods area and was surprised to see a bunch of trucks and cameras. She asked what was going on and was told they were filming a commercial.

However, on her way back home, she run into a security guard and HE told her they were filming the next Harry Potter movie. So, is it a cover-up and they really are filming the movie there? or are they pulling her leg?

Well, I found this comment below from the March 3rd The Sun newspaper. . .seeing as she lives in Farnham, I say its the real deal!

"With news a bit slow on the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince film front, UK paper The Sun has a doozy of a story tonight that just might get your attention. The tabloid is reporting that location filming for the sixth Harry Potter movie is currently taking place in Farnham, Surrey, England, and a couple of visitors made an unexpected appearance during the shoot. The paper claims “two male streakers” caused a bit of chaos by “darting naked through undergrowth during a woodland scene. Stars Daniel Radcliffe and Helena Bonham Carter retreated to their caravans while security chased the pair off.” The article continues to say the pranksters then “crept back and made monkey noises at the location shoot in Farnham, Surrey. A source said: “Seeing naked bodies was a laugh-but the joke wore thin.”

Seeing as this is like 1-2 miles from my kids school, I think I might need to do a walk or drive-by just for the fun of it!
