The women from Harry Potter in real life

Although we’d be content with waving our wands and making feathers float in the air, we’d also love to learn to fly if we ever *magically* turn into a witch or wizard. However, learning to fly is no easy feat, and you need a specially trained professional to teach you the ropes – or the broomsticks.

Rolanda Hooch, or Madam Hooch, is definitely the woman for the job. Appearing in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, Madam Hooch attends Harry, Ron and Hermione’s first flying lesson, and referees Harry’s first Quidditch match. Ten points to Gryffindor!
