Can you predict one thing you think will happen to each of your characters in the books?
Daniel: Does it have to be my character?

It can be anything you want.
Daniel: I think these two [points at Emma and Rupert, i.e. Hermione and Ron] are going to get together. That’s my prediction.

Well, Rupert, what do you say to that?
Rupert: Yeah, that’s what I was going to say as well. I was going to say that I hope they don’t fall for each other. [said in a very ‘teenager, grossed out by love’ way]

But do you think they will?
Rupert: Yes.
