Yesterday we told you that Dan Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, Emma Watson, Warwick Davis (Griphook) and Domhnall Gleeson (Bill Weasley) had arrived in Pembrokeshire, Wales to film the Shell Cottage scenes for Deathly Hallows. Helena Bonham-Carter (Bellatrix Lestrange) has now arrived too.

Quote:

One on-looker said: “She looked incredibly out of place in a pair of red gloves on a sunny day. She was instantly recognisable and yet she just went in, bought some food and drink and went on her way without any fuss or being recognised.”

Filming will be taking place all this week on Freshwater West Beach, with some suggestions that it could even continue until mid June.

Yesterday we first told you various cast members had arrived for location filming on Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Another cast member has now arrived, Helena Bonham Carter who will be filming her role as Bellatrix Lestrange. Readers will recall of course the dramatic encounter she has with Dobby at the end of Malfoy Manor before they apparate to Shell Cottage, and Hermione does later transform as Bellatrix for the trip to Gringotts. Wales Online reports that Helena made a stop to fill up her car before traveling onward to Pembrokeshire, where as we know, filming is now underway at Freshwater Beach in Wales.
