| | Marks & Spencers 'Order of the Phoenix' set visit contest
Another ' Order of the Phoenix' set visit contest has come to light, this time sponsored by Marks & Spencers. One lucky fan plus a friend & guardian will get put up in a hotel and visit the fifth film set. Runners-up will win ' Goblet of Fire' posters.
To enter the competition, visit your local Marks & Spencers store and fill in an entry form.
You have to answer the following question: Which creature does Harry encounter in the first task of the Triwizard Tournement?
1) Snake
2) A three-headed dog
3) Dragon
4) Mermaid
To enter you must be between the ages of 3 and 16 as of January 31st 2006 (if you're 'too old' enter a younger sibling/family member/friend and insist that you be their friend or guardian if they win). You must also be a resident of Great Britain, Northern Ireland or the Republic of Ireland. The closing date is January 23rd 2006.
A scan of the promotional poster can be seen here and a copy of the entry form can be viewed here.
Thanks to Kaz for the info! |

Again, the injustice of it all. I live in Mars, so I can't enter.  Good luck anyway to everyone who enters.

OotP is not for children. Even the director and producer have said GoF isn't a kids film. 7/8 year olds can't even read. 16+ y/o's have grown up with the books. It's unfair.

Why are there no such contests for other European countries? x.x I think it should be a global contest, or at least an European one. Not fair. At all.
