It’s 19 years this month since the first Harry Potter film made stars of Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint. So in honour of this we have dug out some magical retro pictures to remind you of the midnight showings and waiting for the new books to be released.
Who can you see dressing up, reading the next chapter, practising their potions or learning to fly?
Take a look this bumper retro gallery and see which Potterheads you can spot in these magical memories.
