He appeared in roles in several school plays, including Rooster in the musical Annie, Rumplestiltskin in Grimm Tales, and a role in Peter Pan.

As for Grint, his mugging in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets was truly appalling, but that seems to have been a phase and this time around he’s note-perfect. Which is saying a lot – the role of best friend to the hero is one of the most difficult in drama and has brought many a more seasoned thesp to his spiritual knees.

"You'll know flame-haired Rupert from his supporting role as Ron Weasley in the Harry Potter blockbusters. Driving Lessons was an ITV-funded rites-of-passage Brit-flick in which Rupert did a good job of looking crushed, conflicted, slightly lost, straitjacketed by middle-class convention, baffled in love and good-hearted, often all at once.
