How has life changed for you since you entered the world of "Harry Potter"?

My life has changed surprisingly little. Obviously I'm recognised sometimes and people come up to me on the street, but that's really fun and cool because they just want to talk about the film and they're really enthusiastic about it. It's great to hear what they have to say.

Has working on the films affected your schoolwork?

I've just started at a new school, and I've caught up with all of the other kids. On set I actually did better with one-to-one tutoring than in a class of people, so I've settled in really well.

You're a big fan of punk rock music. How come?

I just like the attitude and the way the music sounds. My favourite bands are The Sex Pistols, The Damned, The Stranglers, The Undertones, The Clash, The Jam, bands like that.

Has your love life improved since becoming a movie star?

I don't know what to say! I'm kind of flattered by all the fan letters I get, but I don't have a girlfriend or anything.

Are you like your character?

We are similar, in a way, because Harry's friends are very important to him, and my friends are very important to me. We also both get in trouble quite a lot. As I keep reading the books, I keep discovering more stuff about Harry that I have in common with him. I think we're both very curious - sometimes too much so, and that maybe gets us into trouble.

What's the best and worst things about being so famous?

Probably one of the best is seeing the finished product on the film. Everybody's worked on it for 11 months or so, and to see all the work that everybody on set has put into it, put together something as great as this film, is really great to see. And so far I haven't experienced a worst bit.

"Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" opens in UK cinemas on Friday 15th November 2002.
