Honestly, an Elf can’t catch a break. When you&rsquo🔴;re shifting a tale from page to screen, there are often one or two casua🍬lties that don’t make the cut – as Toby Jones, voice of Harry Potter’s Elf chum Dobby has found out.

“I know that the filmmakers have a problem with each new film because the books are getting longer — there's so much to include in them,” Jones told MTV re🐠cently.

Dobby made debut in Harry Potter And The Chamber Of Secrets, as Harry’s house Elf. If you flip through JK Rowling’s Order Of The Phoenix, you’ll notice that the Dobst♕er plays a key part in get💎ting our Harry through his latest adventure.

With the ⛄wrinkly-faced Dobby given the elbow, Elf fans (?) will be able to get their fix via Sirius Black’s Elvin pal Kreacher, who makes his debut in the next sorcery-laden instalment, set to arrive in cinemas on 13 July 2007.
