I am not sure how much Dudley will feature just because of the grand scale of the film and the fact that there are so many stories and characters to tie up. I haven't seen the film yet but I think it will be a blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment, but it was nice just to round it off and give it some closure.

Dudley

Dudley

Coordinates: 52°30′29″N 2°05′20″W / 52.508°N 2.089°W / 52.508; -2.089 Dudley is a town in the West Midlands county of England located 6 miles south-east of the city of Wolverhampton and 8 miles north-west of the city of Birmingham. The town forms the administrative and financial centre of the wider Metropolitan Borough of Dudley. According to the 2011 census, the town has a population of 79,379, making it the second largest town in the Black Country region of England behind West Bromwich. Dudley is sometimes called the capital of the Black Country. In recent years Dudley town centre has become somewhat run down, a state of affairs that is often blamed on the construction of the Merry Hill Shopping Centre 2.5 miles away at Brierley Hill which caused a number of major retailers and businesses to relocate out of the town centre. However, the town is home to major tourist attractions, namely Dudley Zoo, Dudley Castle and the Black Country Living Museum; and the historic marketplace is currently undergoing regeneration.

Harry Melling
I do look a bit different because Dudley was a very piggish character and about three years ago I lost quite a considerable amount of weight. It means that I can lead a normal life without the baggage of people running after me and shouting things at me.

Harry Melling
I can now shed the child-actor thing, like the fat, and start a new career, because no one sees me as Dudley.
