My money's on Hagrid. The main 3 will go through till the end I reckon, and Hagrids the only other one who is classed as a 'close friend' to Harry so I reckon its him. Regarding the do we like it or hate it options, I agree with Cathy that its great that kids have something to read and get into and follow - but then again, I think Pinotage and sft have valid points as its each to their own. Personally, I love Harry Potter but for example can't stand Big Brother and some people look at me like I've got 2 heads when I say that :)
