Talk:Dudley Dursley

From Harry Potter Wiki

[edit] Picture

Question - In the PoA film, there's a HILARIOUS framed photograph of Dudley with a huge grin on his face. It's sitting on a table, in the very first scene, i believe you can see it when Harry says "Fine", and goes to bring in Aunt Marge's luggage. Would it be possible to put that as his picture on his article? Mafalda Hopkirk 19:07, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Dementor

Does JKR ever reveal what went through Dudley's mind when the Dementor attacked him? Mafalda Hopkirk 19:28, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

Yes, I remember seeing that on mugglenet...It was something like seeing what he really was...-Matoro183 ^(Talk) 01:51, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Dementor attacked Dudley in chapter "Dudley Demented" in Harry Potter and Order of Phoenix. Karu^talk 01:48, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Birthday

The date June 23 can't be the birthday of Dudley as his birthday in 1991 was on a Saturday (Philosopher Stone). The June 23 was 1991 a Sunday. So it could only be the June 22. Do anybody has sources for the date? --10.8.2.70 15:20, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

Dudley's birthday is apparently calculated from a description in Philosopher's Stone, Ch. 3, of the cine-camera he received as a birthday gift as being one month old a week before Harry's birthday on July 31. See here for a detailed explanation.

The days of the week in the book often don't line up with actual historical days of the week (see here for more information). Creative license on Rowling's part probably best explains the divergent calendar. ★ Starstuff ^{(Owl me!)} 03:41, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
