Someone has to ask, did the casting director of the Harry Potter movies have a Mike Leigh marathon before casting the movies? I think I've lost count of actors in that series that have also been in at least one Mike Leigh film.

I've often wondered too! In fact, given the overlap, I've often fantasized what a Harry Potter movie directed by Mike Lee would have been like!
For those not keeping track at home the list of Mike Leigh actors who have been in Harpy Potter movies looks like this:
David Thewlis
Timothy Spall
Imelda Staunton
Jim Broadbent
Gary Oldman
David Bradley
Shirley Henderson
Am I leaving anyone out?
