Jeff Rawle talks about playing Cedric's dad in Harry Potter and working with Rob

In the Harry Potter films, you played Amos Diggory, dad to Robert Pattinson's character, Cedric. Did you enjoy that?

Well, that was a casting problem for the films, you see. They had to find someone as good-looking as Robert to play his father, so they said, "Let's get Jeff Rawle"" Robert seemed happy enough to go along with it - he's such a sweet boy and has gone on to have fantastic success. We spent a lot of time together on set, and had great fun.
