BBC documentary focusing on the history of magic. As the British Library prepares to open an exhibition to celebrate the 20th anniversary of 'Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone' its author J.K. Rowling takes a look around the artefacts on show and discusses her own interest in magic and her research for the books. Meanwhile, experts discuss the history of magic and witchcraft while actors from the film series including David Thewlis, Evanna Lynch and Mark Williams read excerpts from the books.

Please note this is a region 2 DVD and will require a region 2 (Europe) or region Free DVD Player in order to play. Celebrating the 20th anniversary of the first Harry Potter book, this documentary visits the real-life magical history behind J.K. Rowling's beloved classics. With footage from the British Library's exhibition, and exclusive access to a priceless collection of artefacts, take a tour around the mesmerising journey creating this global phenomenon. Includes interviews with J.K. Rowling herself as she examines the most exciting items on display, and opens her private archive to reveal drawings and drafts that have been hidden away for years. And, as opening night arrives, famous fans marvel at this fascinating trove of delights, like Harry Potter seeing Diagon Alley for the first time.   Actors: J.K.
