Yesterday I saw Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets and I noticed that the professor in the green house was grandma Rosie, I don't know if any of you noticed it but it caught my eye.
Professor Sprout was Grandma Rosie?!! Wow!!! *Must watch HP2 again . . . *

Yes, Miriam Margolyes is her name, she is a very famous English actress, you may have also heard her voice as "Fly" the border collie in the movie "Babe". On an interesting note, I believe the guy who did Kaltag's voice also supplied the voice of the duck in Babe too.
oh really , ohhh my god i should watch it again, i d ohave harry potter II again, i have two dvd the first movie and second movie!
I noticed that too. I think I saw it in a commercial. Is she by chance in another movie that was recently released or is going to be released? I just have this feeling I saw her somewhere else.

I need Balto 3 to come out. I'm running out of things to talk about. :p  Maybe I'm too shallow.
Yeah, I also know that prof. Sprout is Grandma Rosie. Balto and the HP movies are some of my favorite movies. �

I think she is also going to be in HP III. That should answer your question, Echo. You probably saw her in the the commercial for Harry Potter and the Prizoner of Azkaban.
Fluke> She did Fly? Wow, I didn't know that..:P All I know is I love Fly ;) lol, when you first mention her doing 'Babe', first thing to come into mind is the wife of the owner.
That actress was the maid in Cats & Dogs too I think.
Thats so cool!!!I just wached the 2 movies after i read this post and in the credits, they say those parts, Gradma Rose and Prf. Sprout are played by the same lady. :)  :D  :laugh:  :p  :O

Oh wow, I never noticed that, but it soooo looks like her! I think your right!
Wow. That is spiffy.
Hey, you know if you want to find out what other works your favorite actors have been in, go to the Internet Movie Database. They have really good records.

(It's where I found out that Star's voice actor was also in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle movies ;)
