Gandalf the Grey beats out Harry Potter for wizards

by Wendy on July 11th, 2007

W00t! I’m actually re-reading Lord of the Rings right now; I’m up to the council in Rivendell at the house of Elrond.

HARRY POTTER has lost his magic - he is not the nation’s favourite wizard, according to a new poll.

Daniel Radcliffe’s schoolboy sorcerer came only third in a poll of the film world’s best magicians.

Gandalf, played by film veteran Sir Ian McKellen in the Lord Of The Rings trilogy, was voted the top wizard.

His long-bearded lookalike Prof Albus Dumbledore, brought to life by Sir Michael Gambon, came second.
