Tristan Evans kicked things off, saying: "Voldemort kills Harry's parents," before Connor Ball chimes in, saying: "But Harry's a bit of a bad man so he doesn't actually die." Bradley Simpson continued: "Hagrid comes and boots the door down and picks him up and goes and says, 'You come with me mate.'"

The band tried to recount the events from the series

James McVey seemed to be the best at explaining the plots, adding: "They kill a guy that's got a Voldemort head on the back of his head." The group begin to struggle to explain the plot following the third film, with James saying: "Dobby. He's a little elf, also dies at some point." Bradley is seen struggling for more information about the series, and says: "Voldemort… he's in it as well." James concludes their explanation, saying: "Loads and loads of people die but all in all it's a good family movie."
