Thank you! And please upload more of her early interviews. It's a joy listening to her talk at this time when she was just starting out and gaining popularity 💖
It is nice to see an interview like this years before the films were made. It goes to show how popular the first book in 1997 was if you become a guest on BLUE PETER :)
Brit Pop, Saturn PLaystaion and N64, Blur and Oasis, Father Ted, Goldeneye 64, the internet is still a novelty, CD's were at their peek. Lets be glad it happened :)
Looking these videos, I feel so happy for her and her works. I love the books and I love hear her talking about then. I wish she gives more interviews. Thanks again for sharing this incredible videos.
I enjoy watching these vintage interviews, especially just to see Rowling filling those notebooks with stories. It's a habit that I have definitely copied.
it does make me wonder if there is any interviews before this. This was winter 1997 and the first book came out 6 months before so its possible, but its more likely you'll find newspaper interviews as opposed to actual video interveiws with her. I think more pupils would have known about the book when they went back to school that september as opposed to the summer, so thats when the popularity will have taken off. Especially once it won the smarties award later tha year, which is why this interview was done with Blue Peter. Thats how it comes off to me anyway.
In January 1998 I walked into Waterstones in Nottingham and saw a group of young teenagers around a table giggling and talking about a book. Little did I know at the time the book was Harry Potter and how literacy would pretty much change forever thanks to Joanne ❤️
Absolutely! you can tell in the first 2 films that they wanted to replicate that look, until film 3 onwards they more or less decided to work on the strengths of what Emma Watson had.
She's not great... SHE'S FUC*ING GREAT! I absolutely love this author and I'll always appreciate her! Love you so much, J.K. Rowling: a master storyteller! 😚🥰😍✨❤️
I wanted to ask why is She called J K? Why didn’t She take initial from the other grandmother, and is that initial maybe is the same one? If she is not in good relationship with her father it was maybe premature to decide to take the name Kate and forget the other grandmother? Though no other consonant can outcompete that one. the vowels would be somewhat satisfactory in terms of sonority, but they would not be so good visually. 😊 I am joking, in fact I am not joking just trying to be funny .
You can tell she's an introvert gifted with a great creativity. I offered to my daughter all the Harry Potter's books even in English (I'm french)

She's got the book hermione look and hairs

She said that Hermione was based on her personality
I'm Indian respected madam you're a super deluxe writer
Thank you
That was really inspiring
I love her weirdness. Such a beautiful lady. 💗
27 years ago, the world was very different..
Love this woman
@JKRowlingLibrary PLEASE UPLOAD MORE VIDEOS FROM THESE YEARS!!!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Heart warming
Thankyou maddam..
Awww I miss people being less glossy and more awkward on camera. Less performative.
She seemed quite melancholic here
She looked tired in 90's, which is understandable
Wow, this is really the early years of the series?!!
Early 2000s by no means the early years of Blur Peter
1997
Blue Peter started in the 1960s!
@@MBM1117727 The series of books...
@@nforne I thought that would have been too obvious.
Wednesday 18th September 2024. J. K Rowling is a wonderful author. Good for her. Best of luck. From Virginia Clark. 🥲🦉🐕🐴🌈

Try harder
Emma Watson keeps dressing up like her 🤔
Damn, british girls get old very soon. Here Rowling was just 32 years old, she looks like 40-45.
Yes, use one woman's looks to generalise millions 😂
She had a difficult life that's why she aged so fast
