DANIEL RADCLIFFE has compared the new Hogwarts blockbuster to Scottish drug flick Trainspotting.

He says his sixth movie outing, Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince, has moments like the cult 1996 film.

Daniel told Empire magazine: "There's a fair amount of sexual energy and drug parallels. We have a couple of Trainspotting moments.

"That's two films I never thought would be mentioned in the same breath."

So does that mean we'll see Harry diving into the worst toilet at Hogwarts to fetch his wand?

There was just one promise from Daniel -- the dark parts are so dark, they're black.

But director DAVID YATES revealed: "We're opening with a big attack. We'll bring a major London landmark crashing down."

I'm just reading the book now and have to admit that the tone of the series has become decidely more mature. I wouldn't call myself an HP fan but I have been impressed by the competence of the storytelling. The fact that the production has adhered to this developing arc, going from the disarming sweetness of Harry's first year to the encounter with the dark side of reality, having seen friends die or be killed, and watching hisown adulthood loom,is one of the aspects that make this something other than just another juvenile fantasy.

He's English - why should he try to sound like Sean?
