Where it all began - a cupboard under the stairs, a letter that changes everything, and a first glimpse of a world just out of reach. Host Rhianna Dhillon is joined by Khleo Thomas as they step back into the first half of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, retracing Harry’s journey from Privet Drive to his first arrival at Hogwarts. Together, they explore the wonder, warmth, and storytelling that defined the start of the series, and why it still feels like coming home. Plus, a behind-the-scenes conversation with Head of Props Pierre Bohanna reveals how some of the film’s most iconic magical objects were brought to life.
