Miriam Margolyes, who played Professor Sprout, also offered a chilling vision of an adult Harry Potter enthusiast's wedding night.

Miriam Margoyles, who played Professor Sprout in the “Harry Potter” movies, is expressing some concern for adults who are still a little too invested the wizarding world.
In an interview with New Zealand’s 1News that aired last week, she was asked about the differences between fans of “Harry Potter” and fans of the English comedy series “Blackadder,” on which she also appeared.
The English-Australian actor took the opportunity to share some of her reflections on Potter-mania.
“I worry about Harry Potter fans, because they should be over that by now,” she said. “You know, I mean, it was 25 years ago, and it’s for children. I think it’s for children. But they get stuck in it.”
