The latest two scores and ten are the same, although you may gibber that three scores are incorrect and ten are the same. These are 'the best years,' you could tell me. That at least I'm not 80, that I can wear purple and yell at the traffic, that I can become a regular contributor to the Oldie magazine, and that it's little more than being able to outlive Rik Mayall, Mel Smith, and Robbie Coltrane. However, I can't be positive about being 70. I hadn't planned for this. Despite a portly appearance, thin white hair, and age spots, my father told me that the bloke inside him was still essentially a student. The one was 20 years old at the time.

Last week, author J. K. Rowling was in a tumultuous mood. 'I've taken the trouble of laying in a massive amount of champagne,' she boasted as news of a decade-long television campaign that may bring her £16 million a year as a result of a new dramatization of her Harry Potter books starring a new cast.' Rowling, 57, isn't particularly fond of bubbly. But her Warner Bros. empire is about so much more than just the financial windfall that comes her way, as her friends, followers, and supporters know. It could also be said that it was a metaphorical slap in the face for those who have longed for a 'cancelled' book over questions she has raised about transgender orthodoxy and her assertion that identifying as a woman is not the same as being born as one. She was thrown into this tumultuous debate three years ago after posting a link to an article on Twitter (on which she has 14 million followers) titled "Opinion: Creating a more equal post-Covid-19 world for people who menstruate."

At their most recent annual general meeting in December last year, members of Quidditch Australia, the sport's governing body, voted in favour of renaming their name to 'Quadball.' The name change was prompted by a desire to distance themselves from Harry Potter author JK Rowling's views on transgender topics. It comes after other Quadball clubs around the world made a similar move last year. Alexandra Marshall, an artist and writer, slammed the decision as 'delusional, disingenuous, and vain.'

Jason Isaacs (top left) and Helena Bonham Carter (bottom left) have all declined to criticize Ms Rowling.

Grint (left), who portrayed Ron Weasley, said he looked up to his coworker but decided not to attend his funeral last year. He talked about how losing Coltrane was especially cruel and described him as a "wonderful being," but confessed to being absent from the funeral because "I don't pretend to know him outside of work." However, supporters are also speculating that following Coltrane's adamant support for Harry Potter author JK Rowling (inset top), who has regularly been chastised for her views on gender identity, fans are questioning his decision to forego the service was due to his pro-trans stance.

Rupert Grint has explained why he didn't attend Harry Potter co-star Robbie Coltrane's funeral. In October last year, actor Robbie was known for his role as half-giant, half-human Hogwarts gamekeeper Rubeus Hagrid in the movie franchise before his death from multiple organ failure in October. Also, although Rupert, 34, who portrayed Ron Weasley in the films, said he looked forward to Robbie, he did not attend his funeral last year.

The Harry Potter and Cracker actor, who died on October 1, adored the Big Apple, and especially Katz's on the Lower East Side.

Poe joined Coltrane's son, Spencer McMillan, and sister Alice in scattering the ashes around Manhattan. They were seen dispersed from a tiny tube in Washington Square Park and the independent cinema The New York Film Forum, as well as Katz's, where they carried their bodies to the pastrami counter before Spencer and Poe shared an emotional hug.
