I am deeply perturbed.

I was just browsing an old post in [livejournal.com profile] hp_britglish, and someone made reference to how Jim Dale pronounces a name in the audiobook. Surely, surely, the audiobooks in America have Stephen Fry reading them? Surely? Clearly, anything else is just wrong.

I'm afraid not (it is Just Plain Wrong). I listed to the NPR news quiz (hilarious) and the week the last Harry Potter came out, Jim Dale was a guest for the 'Not My Job' round and they were asking questions about pronounciation. What is the point in having two different versions? Is it for copyright purposes? Stephen Fry has got to be the definitive.
