The Horcrux Of The Matter

With the last but one Harry Potter film premiering in London last night, today's Highly Questionable? quiz celebrates the wand wielding wizarding world (which we will return to when the final installment is screened in July 2011).

1 How many books has J K Rowling written to form the Harry Potter series?

2 By what forename is Harry Potter author J K Rowling known?

3 The supremely accomplished wizard and head master of Hogwarts school Albus Dumbledore has been played by which two actors over the course of the sequence of film adaptations of the Harry Potter books?

4 By what name are non-magical people known in the Harry Potter universe?

5 What are the respective names of the gold, silver and bronze coins that make up the currency in the wizarding world? 

The answers will be published along with tomorrow's quiz questions.

The answers to yesterday's Dick Van Dyke quiz were:-
1 A chimney sweep was the occupation of the character Van Dyke played in the 1964 film 'Mary Poppins'.
2 'Chim Chim Cheree' was the name of the song that Van Dyke's character famously sang in the 'Mary Poppins' film.
3 Cockney was the accent that Van Dyke attempted to give to his character Bert in the 'Mary Poppins' film.
4 P L Travers was the author who created Mary Poppins.
5 A pod is the collective noun for a group of porpoises.
