You would think that the Hogwarts faculty would be a bit more concerned about Trevor constantly being lost because you need a toad and a chicken egg to make a basilisk
The egg would have to be a fertilized egg with an embryo tho- unless everyone at Hogwarts is regularly eating Balut for breakfast I think they're pretty safe.
Yeah, for such a dangerous creature, it sure is pretty easy to hatch a basilisk. I think the main reason that it’s not a concern is that basilisks aren’t really common knowledge for students or even the average wizard. Doesn’t Hermione get the info about the basilisk from a book in the restricted section of the library anyways? Oh well, I might be misremembering that. And, anyway, it’s also super illegal to hatch or raise a basilisk, regardless of how easy it is. Even if someone did take Trevor to use him to hatch a basilisk, if the ministry or Dumbledore caught wind of it they could intervene. That’s all a long winded explanation to say that I don’t think the Hogwarts faculty would be overly concerned about a missing toad because it seems like a bit of a stretch that a student would have kidnapped a pet with the express purpose of performing incredibly dark magic, especially when it’s Neville’s toad. The same Neville who loses absolutely everything. Also, it’s not like Trevor is the only toad in the castle. There are only like 4 approved types of pets and toads are one of them. Heck, any student proficient enough in transfiguration could straight up make a toad. If the faculty is actually worried about someone hatching basilisks, there are a lot of other things they should be far more worried about.
Don’t think it posted the first time, but the reason that Harry missed The Sorting in Prisoner is because McGonagall wanted him checked out by Madam Pomfrey since her passed out. He was further delayed because McGonagall then sends him into the hall so that she can talk to Hermione about the Time Turner. Thank you for the amazing content!
Yeah, i remembered that, and that's also why later in the quiz i thought, ooh that's clever, when they asked who conducted the sorting in prisoner, cause it wasn't mcgonagall, cause she was talking to harry and hermione!
Will the next “What If Harry Potter” series be covering what if Herminone Granger was sorted into Ravenclaw? I’m not sure but I would love to see that.
Poor Ben. I cried when I saw him write occulmency and was hoping he'd realize he'd gotten it backwards because I had done the exact same thing as my initial reaction and then realized what I'd done.
To answer why Harry didn't see the sorting in his 3rd year: McGonagall pulled him aside because she knew he had fainted on the train when he encountered the dementors so she had him checked out by Madam Pomfrey
Book 2: Crashed car into whomping willow. Book 3: they wanted him to visit Madam Pomfrey. Book 6: Draco left him under the cloak. Book 7: he never went. Edit: Spelt character's names correctly.
It’s my head canon that the sorting had said “i told you you’d make a good griffindor” when placed onto Neville’s head not long before providing the sword to him
5:55 I was excited because I thought they were doing a tricky question and the answer would include year 2, since Harry and Ron look through a window and see part of the sorting ceremony after crashing in the whomping willow, but it probably would be too cheesy hahaha
I feel like it should have been included, I also thought 2 would be one because it is technically correct, but I guess they mean like the full ceremony.
J and Ben missed the great oprotunity to theorize that it was actually Neville's Uncle Algie who is the Animagus of Trevor (he did give it to Neville and has kinda always been watching him and getting the drop on him so he could see his nephew do some magic)
@@Skylerrelyks93 Oh sorry, i didn't realize that the book says that Uncle Algie physically handed Trevor to him. (sarcasm). you realize that people give gifts without physically being present most of the time right? even back in the 90s when this happened? also, POLYJUICE POTION!
That was a really popular theory that has already been dismissed by JK as being not true, during an appearance on Blue Peter back in 2007, the day before Deathly Hallows was released. "NAOMI: Can you tell us a bit more about Trevor the Toad? Is he an animagus of Neville's Uncle Algie? JKR: See, I love all these theories, I really love this. Ummm, no. But I love the fact that everyone is now so tuned in to the Harry Potter world that every tiny part and character is closely examined through a microscope by devoted readers to decide what they're hiding. But no, Trevor really is just a toad. That is definitely it. He's not the dead Dumbledore come back to help anyone... (unintelligible)"
@@frenchk1850 while the creator chiming in is normally a valid source for theory proving or disproving hasn't JKR also claimed things that are disproved by basic reading comprehension; euch as how Jk claimed that Hermione is meant to be of African descent while staring that she is white in Prisoner of Askaban? Point is that if she can discredit herself as a source once, then I am allowed to question her as a source again.
Imagine you're so true a gryffindor that the sword appears inside the hat as soon as it touches your head during sorting ceremony, killing you on the spot.
I don't recall ever commenting on this channel, i don't comment very often anyway. Just here to say i didn't have the best day ever, but i think this is what i needed to get my mood back up. Thx for the vid :)
I’ve always wondered if Trevor could magically disappear or if he was like a family member who was trying to support him or help him make friends since he seems to lose so much and as he gains confidence you hear about him less and less and not really at all after order of the phoenix
anyone wonder why Ravinclaw is never a runner up for house champion? Because it is a house full of know it all Harmionies, and Snape keeps docking points from them during potions class.
The real reason is that the books would be boring if Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff won the House Cup all the time because very few relevant characters are from those houses.
Wouldn’t be that difficult I don’t think because they didn’t go into much vivid detail in that series, so it would just be a quiz about the major points. I think they’d both do amazingly on it
23:29 - 23:49 The way I see it is that the Sorting Hat actually IS in "Hogwarts: A History", it's just hidden in plain sight under the Fidelius Charm (also just realized I think the charm name is a play on "fiddle" XD). The way I have it in my head is that it's on the "first page" depicted as is, but it just looks like an average wizard hat (acting as sort of like the "introductory art" page) and the words are along the side of the page with it, but it sort of acts like how Tom Riddle's Diary works. Also, my main goal/hope is to see the J vs Ben episode where both of you get a perfect score, ending in a tie with every right answer.
ben should have gotten the "Which years did harry see the ceremonies?" He clearly had 1,4, and 5, then 3 off to the side with a question mark. When J does that, it gets over looked.
@@SCP.343 I can attest to that- im the eldest and i did always cheat at games. Lol. Except my brother ALSO cheated and we ALWAYS tried to one-up the other. So it kinda cancled out.
In Prisoner, Harry was with Madam Pomfrey and McGonagall for the checkup after the dementor attack so he missed the sorting ceremony. Harry tells them he's fine and already got chocolate from Lupin
Getting ready for this trivia, Edit: the past couple of videos they have said after book 3 Trevor the toad is never seen, we actually see him in book 6 on the train to hogwarts, in chapter 7, he said “ oi come back here Trevor.” Because he tried to escape under the seat. YOUR WELCOME
Maybe the sorting hat's ability to produce the sword existed before it was enchanted to sort the students. Gryffindor could have just pulled his sword from his hat whenever he needed it.
Book 3, the dementor affected Harry badly on the train so they pulled him aside to make sure he was okay, also Hermione was getting the time turner and Harry waited for her.
He didn't see it in 3 because professor mcgonagall took him and Hermione to the side. To get Harry checked out by madame Pomphrey, And to give Hermione the time Turner
Technically the Junior and Senior naming conversations should only be used for a parent and child who have exactly identical names and are both alive. So if it skips a generation, the middle names are different, or if the parent is deceased, then you should only use numbers.
Junior and Senior are just age designations. If you are talking about two people with the same name who are completely unrelated and different ages, you can use Junior and Senior as well, though it obviously wouldn’t be part of their actual names. It just means younger and older. (Or just use something like “the younger” and “the older”.) If J and Ben had a sister with the same name as Ben’s daughter, they could easily be called Senior and Junior, though more as nicknames. Honestly they should all be nicknames - no one should have those as part of their legal name, same as married names shouldn’t be part of someone’s legal name.
@@katherinegilks3880 maybe in certain colloquial groups. Personally I've never heard of referring to unrelated people as such, but I don't doubt that you have. That being said, what I mentioned is the most by the books, standard rule of going about it. It's perfectly fine to not follow the rules of this nonsense language we speak, so long as people understand your meaning. I just personally don't like when people call me junior, since I'm the third, and my middle name isn't the same as my dad's or grandpa's, so it's a subject I tend to get particularly picky with.
@@blakdeth I'm a bank teller and we have to be picky about it too, since it's part of the legal name. Name on check has to match name on ID. Frustrating though because I understand that the person writing the check might not even know that the one they are writing it to is a junior. Also I don't understand changing it once the elder has died. My dad is a third. His father and grandfather have passed away, so he should no longer have a suffix. But my birth certificate says my father is a third. Does that make my birth certificate wrong? Language rules are really weird.
@@melanieackard7736 typically you wouldn't drop roman numerals after a passing. They're useful for keeping track of genealogical records. Especially for European royal families who use them a lot.
Something that would be interesting to see is the stats for when Ben wears the glasses and Jonathan sports the Waddiwasi shirt (almost want to call it a jersey as it is gameday attire). Definitely a fun J vs Ben and thanks for the laughs!
I think right now Ben is definitely a Griffindor and J definitley Slytherin. When Js about to lose you can see his frustration so clearly, while Ben seems on the outer side more like an airhead. Lovem both
I count this as a Ben win! He should have gotten the point for the quizmaster questions about which ceremonies Harry saw cause the 3 was on the side with a question mark, and also I would have allowed the Occlumency one unless it was an option in the multiple choice..
I haven’t been watching a lot of RUclips lately so I haven’t watched any of their videos in a while. But I got a notification for this video and decided that I should get back into watching them. I’m very excited!!
3:06 Yes, the term "Hatstall" is mentioned in the Harry Potter series: Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone: Hatstalls are first mentioned in this book. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets: Hatstalls are mentioned in this book. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix: Hatstalls are mentioned in this book.
I’m tired of saying this Trevor is always going missing because he is Agent T, and works for the same agency Perry the platypus a.k.a. Agent P works for. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
As someone who made up a song/rhythm to the first sorting song as a kid and can now recite it from memory, watching y’all struggle with the last question was really funny. I would have had to be careful not to mutter the words though
Harry didn't see the ceremony in his third year because McGonagall took him and Hermione aside to talk to him about Sirius and her about her Timeturner. They got to the feast just as the sorting finished and Hermione was upset that they missed it.
Harry misses the sorting ceremony in his third year because he and Hermione went up to McGonagall's office. Hermione for her time turner and Harry because McGonagall wanted to make sure he was alright after he fainted.
You never heard of bowler hats? These were actually worn by construction workers and their management before helmets became widespread. E.g. the twin detectives from the TIn Tin franchise wear them all the time.
I had to look it up myself. In Prisoner of Azkaban, Harry didn't make it to the sorting ceremony because McGonagall called him and Hermione to discuss the dementor and for Madame Pomfrey to make sure he was all right after he'd "fallen ill on the train." They made it back in time for the feast, so at least they were there for the important part.
I do not accept the answer to the first quiz master question! Harry "saw" some of the sorting ceremony in his 2nd year, Harry and Ron see some of the sorting through a window before Snape arrives behind them. "A very small, mousy-haired boy had been called forward to place the hat on his head. Harry’s eyes wandered past him to where Professor Dumbledore, the headmaster, sat watching the Sorting from the staff table, his long silver beard and half-moon glasses shining brightly in the candlelight. Several seats along, Harry saw Gilderoy Lockhart, dressed in robes of aquamarine. And there at the end was Hagrid, huge and hairy, drinking deeply from his goblet. “Hang on…” Harry muttered to Ron. “There’s an empty chair at the staff table.…Where’s Snape?”
I would argue that the last question is a little bit wrong in that the song only mentions 2 other types of hats. A 'cap' is, to my knowledge, not a type of hat in itself. There are a few different types of hats that are referred to as caps, such as the Flat Cap, Newsboy Cap, and Ascot Cap; but I've never heard of any hat simply called a 'cap'. The hat does say 'thinking cap' but that's just a play on words because he is a 'cap' (here used interchangeably with the word hat) that can think.
With the play along doing the multi choice questions this quiz was too easy. I got: 10/10 · Scored 100% Result: Top hat! The Sorting Hat claims to know all about the person who puts it on their head - but we think you know everything about the Sorting Hat! But great video, as ever.
One name that always stuck really hard to me during the sorting ceremonies was 1 specific name. When I later heard the story about the name it hit me even harder. The question could be: During Harry Potter and the goblet of fire, nearly headless Nick and the 3 friends are discussing the events of the wizarding world. Nearly headless nick says: "'I do hope this year's batch of Gryffindors are up to scratch,' said Nearly Headless Nick, applauding as who joins the Gryffindor table."
@@ShirinRose Hint: The name comes from a 9 year old Canadian fan that had leukemia. A friend of the mother wrote to Rowling, but was sadly on vacation. She read the letter and instantly send an email but the young fan had sadly passed away 1 day prior to the email being sent.
@@mrborgeusborg1541 That's really sad, I hadn't heard that story. I have no idea who it is, and I don't have my books available to go look it up (they're in Sydney and I'm in London)
The brothers: “we need ‘LiveLaughLavLav’ on a golden locket.” Me, who has a silhouette cameo and a bunch of old, semi-gaudy costume jewelry: wHeRe Do I sEnD iT???
I guess I’ve always missed the 3rd year hat part on my read throughs! Professor Flitwick, who was a tiny little wizard with a shock of white hair, was carrying an ancient hat and a four-legged stool out of the hall.
Kat saying there's one in all the options at 25:15 makes no sense because she read just all the options for it to be "Select all that apply" rather than 4 options that each had 3 hats included.
Somehow I don't think Rowling intended it as the Swording Hat as "sorting" has a different T pronunciation in British English than in American English.
Book 3 reasoning for missing the sorting ceremony! A dementor had crawled into the trio's compartment on the Hogwarts Express, and the very presence of the Dementor made Harry pass out. Harry was taken to Professor McGonagall's office when the train reached Hogwarts.
I wonder why Voldemort never decided to become an Animagus. Maybe he tried it, thinking he'd become a snake, but wound up as a poodle or a trout or a giraffe or something and decided "No, no, no. Nobody will take me seriously if I show this to them."
In year three Harry gets pulled aside to meet Pomfrey/MCG to get some chocolate and tells her he already had some. Pomphrey wants Harry to go straight to hospital wing, Harry protests his way out of that. Harry waits outside MCG's as Hermione gets her time turner, so they can go to the feast together.
Trevor - There are several fanfics out there, and other head-canons, that say Trevor is actually Augusta's estranged husband who cheated on her, so she turned him into a toad. There's also one where Harry finds Potter Manor and there are two Gryffins that guard it, and finds out James used to say "Hogwarts has Gryffindor, but a Gryffin guards my door" which was a neat play on words. There was also one that used Sirus' initials, but I wont' say that one. Bee In Your Bonnet - I so wish we had an outtake where Dan went "I don't know, you're the bonnet, is there a bee?" Jr - no, girls do not get Junior added to their names. Women also were normally referred to as "Mary Smith Nee Jones" to show the family they came from as well, a modern version is the hyphenated name. #TeamJ
Something missed for years.....Godric could use his sword as a wand......as stated in the first harry potter book lol...via a wizard can use any object to channel their power.....maybe book 2 i forgot....but its there
Fun and fabulous like always. Adding your wife to read the questions and be a geek with you guys is incredible :P Do more of those... and go on with the harry was in deference houses... could be nice harry potter in Ravenclaw, lol
5 minutes seems like such a short time in the grand scale of the universe, but imagine just sitting at your table wanting to eat while you stare at a nervous 11-yr-old for 5+ minutes. Try sitting still and silent for that long and see how far you get before you get annoyed and want it to just be over.
1. Trevor the toad was hatching a chicken's egg to make a basilisk, duh 2. Harry and Hermione got called to mcgonagall's office, Harry to ask how he was doing and after he got sent to wait outside Hermione got her time turner

ben should have gotten the "Which years did harry see the ceremonies?"

Also I don't understand changing it once the elder has died. My dad is a third. His father and grandfather have passed away, so he should no longer have a suffix. But my birth certificate says my father is a third. Does that make my birth certificate wrong? Language rules are really weird.
@@melanieackard7736 typically you wouldn't drop roman numerals after a passing. They're useful for keeping track of genealogical records. Especially for European royal families who use them a lot.
Something that would be interesting to see is the stats for when Ben wears the glasses and Jonathan sports the Waddiwasi shirt (almost want to call it a jersey as it is gameday attire). Definitely a fun J vs Ben and thanks for the laughs!
Kangaroo Kat, and thus a legend was born…
Yesss, finally a new video!
Love this format!
Another perfect score! I even got all the Quiz Master questions this time!
“Oh… I sworded you…” 😂
To me bowler was the most obvious because a bowler is like...THE quintessential English hat.
I think right now Ben is definitely a Griffindor and J definitley Slytherin. When Js about to lose you can see his frustration so clearly, while Ben seems on the outer side more like an airhead. Lovem both
I count this as a Ben win! He should have gotten the point for the quizmaster questions about which ceremonies Harry saw cause the 3 was on the side with a question mark, and also I would have allowed the Occlumency one unless it was an option in the multiple choice..
I love how each brother moves while the other gives the announcements at the beginning. It's like they know the emphasis of each other!
I'd like to give a shout out to the SCB editor/animator who created the word-nado effect EVERY TIME the quiz question appears!
4:48 Godric was just too much for Salazar and eventually he just said “I’m done” 🤣
I haven’t been watching a lot of RUclips lately so I haven’t watched any of their videos in a while. But I got a notification for this video and decided that I should get back into watching them. I’m very excited!!
3:06 Yes, the term "Hatstall" is mentioned in the Harry Potter series:
Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone: Hatstalls are first mentioned in this book.
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets: Hatstalls are mentioned in this book.
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix: Hatstalls are mentioned in this book.
I’m tired of saying this Trevor is always going missing because he is Agent T, and works for the same agency Perry the platypus a.k.a. Agent P works for. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Best part is, there is actually a frog/and or toad agent at O.W.C.A.
I lowkey wanna make some kind of parody theory video about this xD would be hilarious
@@thedragonwarrior5861 Exactly!!!!! Thank you 🙏🏽
@@GubbiGap I would love that!
@@jasonmarante3156 you're welcome
As someone who made up a song/rhythm to the first sorting song as a kid and can now recite it from memory, watching y’all struggle with the last question was really funny. I would have had to be careful not to mutter the words though
Harry didn't see the ceremony in his third year because McGonagall took him and Hermione aside to talk to him about Sirius and her about her Timeturner. They got to the feast just as the sorting finished and Hermione was upset that they missed it.
And also Harry needed to have check up by madam Pomfrey because he passed out
@@um7239 That too. It's been over 6 years since I've read the series so my knowledge of Potter stuff is shaky at best :)
Loved the video today, as I always do! But please tell me I'm not the only person that did a double take with J's tee... 😅🤣🤣
Anyone else noticed during the first question that Ben leaned over and it caused the hat to move. It looked like the hat was was alive 😂
Kangaroo Kat, hopping into our lives and hearts
Harry misses the sorting ceremony in his third year because he and Hermione went up to McGonagall's office. Hermione for her time turner and Harry because McGonagall wanted to make sure he was alright after he fainted.
Kingsley as Trevor would be hilarious
Harry Potter quizzes are the best!! thank you both!!!
You never heard of bowler hats? These were actually worn by construction workers and their management before helmets became widespread. E.g. the twin detectives from the TIn Tin franchise wear them all the time.
Cornelius Fudge and his lime-green bowler hat
I had to look it up myself. In Prisoner of Azkaban, Harry didn't make it to the sorting ceremony because McGonagall called him and Hermione to discuss the dementor and for Madame Pomfrey to make sure he was all right after he'd "fallen ill on the train." They made it back in time for the feast, so at least they were there for the important part.
I do not accept the answer to the first quiz master question! Harry "saw" some of the sorting ceremony in his 2nd year, Harry and Ron see some of the sorting through a window before Snape arrives behind them.
"A very small, mousy-haired boy had been called forward to place the hat on his head. Harry’s eyes wandered past him to where Professor Dumbledore, the headmaster, sat watching the Sorting from the staff table, his long silver beard and half-moon glasses shining brightly in the candlelight. Several seats along, Harry saw Gilderoy Lockhart, dressed in robes of aquamarine. And there at the end was Hagrid, huge and hairy, drinking deeply from his goblet.
“Hang on…” Harry muttered to Ron. “There’s an empty chair at the staff table.…Where’s Snape?”
I would argue that the last question is a little bit wrong in that the song only mentions 2 other types of hats. A 'cap' is, to my knowledge, not a type of hat in itself. There are a few different types of hats that are referred to as caps, such as the Flat Cap, Newsboy Cap, and Ascot Cap; but I've never heard of any hat simply called a 'cap'. The hat does say 'thinking cap' but that's just a play on words because he is a 'cap' (here used interchangeably with the word hat) that can think.
oh I always thought that all the relics of the founders can be hidden there..but I guess a diadem would not help them much...
Trevor the Toad, we meet again, where's Perry?
With the play along doing the multi choice questions this quiz was too easy. I got:
10/10 · Scored 100%
Result: Top hat!
The Sorting Hat
claims to know all about the person who puts it on their head - but we think
you know everything about the Sorting Hat!
But great video, as ever.
Yeah girls can have Junior in the name too my friends actually named after her dad so she's a junior
One name that always stuck really hard to me during the sorting ceremonies was 1 specific name. When I later heard the story about the name it hit me even harder.
The question could be: During Harry Potter and the goblet of fire, nearly headless Nick and the 3 friends are discussing the events of the wizarding world. Nearly headless nick says: "'I do hope this year's batch of Gryffindors are up to scratch,' said Nearly Headless Nick, applauding as who joins the Gryffindor table."
Ooh good question. Was it Dennis Creevey?
@@ShirinRose wrong
@@ShirinRose Hint: The name comes from a 9 year old Canadian fan that had leukemia. A friend of the mother wrote to Rowling, but was sadly on vacation. She read the letter and instantly send an email but the young fan had sadly passed away 1 day prior to the email being sent.
@@mrborgeusborg1541 That's really sad, I hadn't heard that story. I have no idea who it is, and I don't have my books available to go look it up (they're in Sydney and I'm in London)
@@ShirinRose it is.
For fairness to people reading this, I will not post the answer.
The brothers: “we need ‘LiveLaughLavLav’ on a golden locket.”
Me, who has a silhouette cameo and a bunch of old, semi-gaudy costume jewelry: wHeRe Do I sEnD iT???
I guess I’ve always missed the 3rd year hat part on my read throughs!
Professor Flitwick, who was a tiny little wizard with a shock of white hair, was carrying an ancient hat and a four-legged stool out of the hall.
This is just a Kat appreciation post. Kat we love you. :D
LOVE these trivia videos!!!!
This was an especially chaotic JvB and it was exactly what I needed today while sick.
So I discovered yall after the hogawards game came out and I have to say I love this channel and dedication to the Harry Potter series 💯
Kat saying there's one in all the options at 25:15 makes no sense because she read just all the options for it to be "Select all that apply" rather than 4 options that each had 3 hats included.
1, 4, and 5
2 and 6: He's late.
3: He gets sent to Madam Pomfrey.
7: Death Eater takeover, Horcruxes.
11:29 The Sorting Hat tries to cover up for procrastinating in Year 2 and claims it _couldn't_ come up with a song because it got petrified.
Somehow I don't think Rowling intended it as the Swording Hat as "sorting" has a different T pronunciation in British English than in American English.
Oh! Thats what they were talking about, I didn't understand what they were saying!
Book 3 reasoning for missing the sorting ceremony! A dementor had crawled into the trio's compartment on the Hogwarts Express, and the very presence of the Dementor made Harry pass out. Harry was taken to Professor McGonagall's office when the train reached Hogwarts.
The origin of kangaroo cat!
In book 3 Harry and Hermione were taken aside by Mcgonagall, Harry because they were concerned from him fainting, and Hermione to get her time turner
I wonder why Voldemort never decided to become an Animagus. Maybe he tried it, thinking he'd become a snake, but wound up as a poodle or a trout or a giraffe or something and decided "No, no, no. Nobody will take me seriously if I show this to them."
In year three Harry gets pulled aside to meet Pomfrey/MCG to get some chocolate and tells her he already had some. Pomphrey wants Harry to go straight to hospital wing, Harry protests his way out of that. Harry waits outside MCG's as Hermione gets her time turner, so they can go to the feast together.
And this was the video that the nickname Kangaroo Cat was born
Trevor - There are several fanfics out there, and other head-canons, that say Trevor is actually Augusta's estranged husband who cheated on her, so she turned him into a toad. There's also one where Harry finds Potter Manor and there are two Gryffins that guard it, and finds out James used to say "Hogwarts has Gryffindor, but a Gryffin guards my door" which was a neat play on words. There was also one that used Sirus' initials, but I wont' say that one.
Bee In Your Bonnet - I so wish we had an outtake where Dan went "I don't know, you're the bonnet, is there a bee?"
Jr - no, girls do not get Junior added to their names. Women also were normally referred to as "Mary Smith Nee Jones" to show the family they came from as well, a modern version is the hyphenated name.
#TeamJ
Love the J vs Ben quizzes!
I totally support the idea that Trevor’s an Animagus 😂😂 I have no idea who he would be though
Something missed for years.....Godric could use his sword as a wand......as stated in the first harry potter book lol...via a wizard can use any object to channel their power.....maybe book 2 i forgot....but its there
Hello! Excited to watch another episode
Fun and fabulous like always. Adding your wife to read the questions and be a geek with you guys is incredible :P Do more of those... and go on with the harry was in deference houses... could be nice harry potter in Ravenclaw, lol
5 minutes seems like such a short time in the grand scale of the universe, but imagine just sitting at your table wanting to eat while you stare at a nervous 11-yr-old for 5+ minutes. Try sitting still and silent for that long and see how far you get before you get annoyed and want it to just be over.
Kangaroo Cat sounds like my new favorite animal in the Avatar universe
Maybe Neville's uncle is Trevor? The one who found his magical abilities by holding him by his ankle.
Godric using the sword for muggle duels is my new head cannon.
1. Trevor the toad was hatching a chicken's egg to make a basilisk, duh
2. Harry and Hermione got called to mcgonagall's office, Harry to ask how he was doing and after he got sent to wait outside Hermione got her time turner
