Harry Potter fans have managed to influence the route of a £430 million power project between the UK and Ireland after raising concerns that an undersea cable could cut through the spot associated with Dobby, the beloved house-elf from the series. The Greenlink interconnector, which will connect County Wexford in Ireland to Freshwater West in Wales, was originally expected to come ashore close to the location where Dobby’s death scene was filmed.
The plan changed after fans complained about the possible impact on the makeshift memorial at the Welsh beach.
