- Interesting how Fudge interacts with Harry in the top box, knowing how things change as soon as Harry isn't politically useful
- We are introduced to Narcissa when the Malfoys arrive
- Should the Veela be described as creatures? It feels wrong as they are at least humanoid
- Are the Veela a liability? Is it lucky that no one actually jumped into the stadium like Harry was thinking
- Do Veela only affect men or is it attraction-based?
- It's interesting that this is Harry's first time really watching Quidditch - and professional level quidditch at that
- The Ref getting caught up by the Veela's - we would leave the country if this was us
