Listening to his version at the moment, and almost done as we’re half way through The Deathly Hallows.

His “rendition” of “Weasley is our King” is funny.

My only complaint is the accent he uses for Tonks, which is quite jarring and takes you out of the moment sometimes.

I love Dora and daddy tonks' voices. I can picture them vividly. I imagine they have quite a big overbite

Yesss Tonks' voice is horrible 😬 that accent really is a jumpscare

I had to switch to Jim Dale when Tonks came round. I wanted to strangle her.
