Miriam Margolyes sparks feud among Harry Potter cast after controversial 'grow up' comment
“It’s created a fan base that has aged and is still bonded through it and it’s passed on to younger generations and that’s what is so amazing.
“She probably just doesn’t understand that or get that. I think this situation is very unusual,” which got a resounding applause from the audience and the full support of Devon Murray sitting next to her, who played Seamus Finnigan.
Despite their disagreement, Jessie pleaded with fans to “let (Miriam) be”.
The 82-year-old spoke to New Zealand television network 1News last month saying: “I worry about Harry Potter fans because they should be over that by now. It was 25 years ago. Grow up. It’s for children but they get stuck in it.”

She poked fun at the franchise’s fans adding “I do Cameos and people say they are doing a Harry Potter-themed wedding, and I think; ‘Oh gosh what is their first night of fun going to be?’
“I can’t even think about it. Harry Potter is wonderful, I’m very grateful to it. It’s over. That’s what I think.”
She later doubled down on her comments, telling ABC News Australia: “If your balls have dropped, then it’s time to forget about it. You know, go on to other things. I just think that it’s for children. And then it’s time to move on.”
