🪄🕳️🚧Move over Hogwarts — there’s a new kind of magic in town. A film crew shooting a Harry Potter–themed project has managed to do what local councils apparently can’t: fix potholes. Yes, while bureaucrats were still “reviewing funding options,” a bunch of prop designers rolled up and actually repaired the roads. Expecto Asphaltem, baby.
🧙♂️ The Magic Ministry of Maintenance
Residents in the village were thrilled — and mildly humiliated on behalf of their council — as the film team patched up craters that had been swallowing bumpers for years. Turns out, the solution to Britain’s road crisis wasn’t another committee meeting or budget spreadsheet. It was wizards with a film permit and a sense of urgency.
Imagine the council’s reaction: “We were just about to fix that!” Sure you were, Brenda. Right after tea, biscuits, and another ‘strategic review’. Meanwhile, the Harry Pothole crew is out here doing more for infrastructure than an entire decade of local government. 🚜✨
Somewhere, a councillor is frantically drafting a statement about “collaborative public-private initiatives” — translation: “We got shown up by people dressed like Hagrid.”
