Author JK Rowling says she is tempted to create a "director's cut" of two Harry Potter novels, because she ran out of time to finesse them.

No. Just no.

Dream on, mate. Licence to print money - no mulling involved. This is a case of when, not if.

I'm not buying them all again.
I'd buy an encyclopedia of Harry Potter if she did one, but not a slight edit to the books.

On the radio this morning she said would need more inspiration for plots as she didn't want to just have a book that picked up odd threads left throughout the previous seven stores.

Whatever she does, it'll sell in the millions I should expect.

Those books have more than their fair share of wand-fondling moments already.

Very annoyed that Rowling got a free five minute advert on the BBC's one o'clock "news" today because she's written a book. Is she really that hard up? I thought she made shedloads of cash from the Potter franchise.

I'd have much rather have seen a five minute report on the new Hubble extra-super-duper deep field image, frankly. Instead is was briefly stumbled over before handing off to the weatherguesser.
