Rupert Grint Opens Richard Burns Memorial Rally

August 15, 2009, 10:43 AM–As we reported a few days ago, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince star Rupert Grint attends today’s Richard Burns Memorial Rally in Norfolk. While Rupert’s brother James is up for his first race, Rupert himself waved the flag to start of the rally earlier today. Rupert was also quoted saying this about his brother: “It’s quite a new thing for him. He is just getting started, but he has got a natural ability. I wouldn’t have a go. The cars go really fast so it’s not something I am brave enough to do. I trust his ability though. So far he hasn’t had any accidents.” So fingers crossed for James and the best of luck from all of us! You can read more about Rupert at the Rally here! Continue reading

Rupert Grint And Co-Stars Support Children In Need!

According to the Harry Potter blog HP4U, who quote a BBC source, the Trio a.k.a. Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and Emma Watson have recorded segments to feature in this year’s BBC’s Children In Need fundraiser which launches on 21 September. HP4U claim that “the recording, directly to camera, will no doubt appeal to UK fans to help get near the 37 million pounds raised last year and was recorded this week during filming of the wedding scenes.” However I have checked the BBC site and no mention of the Trio yet, so please treat this as rumour for the time being. We have already asked for an official confirmation, and will update you as soon as possible. Oh, and please stick around, because the second edition of ICM’s Roncast is on the way! Continue reading
