Ex-pop star to play Mr Borgin

BBC: With filming on The Chamber of Secrets due to finish next month, a creepy looking ex-pop star has been spotted slinking around the Harry Potter studios.

Newsround have discovered that the singer in 80s punk band Tenpole Tudor, Ed Tudor-Pole, has been cast as creepy shopkeeper Mr Borgin.

He serves the Malfoys at his Dark Arts shop in Knockturn Alley.

As well as his music career, he was also a presenter of TV show The Crystal Maze.

Ed's already started filming his scenes at Leavesden Studios, and we reckon that he looks just right for the role.
