Disclaimer: I don't own any charas, they are all courtesy of the lovely
J.K.R. *holds up sign saying I LOVE YOU JKR!* and the plot is based on a
real English TV chat show that was last screened about. a year ago. It's
been replaced by a new series, with the name V. Yes, anyone from England
should be able to guess what I'm referring to here... it's the lovely, So
Graham Norton! (well, it's V Graham Norton now)
Note: Being Graham Norton doesn't exist. There is a rumor that Graham IS going to write an autobiography, because he thinks all the other efforts about his life are crap (to put it bluntly), but I can't clarify that.

"God, I'm bored." Said Harry. He was in his sixth-year, and lounging in the Gryffindor Common Room with his friends Hermione and Ron.
"Harry, surely there must be something to do!" Whined Ron. He had been trying to make a card castle out of Wizard Cards but had stopped when one of his 'Blind Io' cards had made a very rude gesture at him.
Hermione was silent. Her being engrossed in the new autobiography, Being Graham Norton (by Graham Norton, as it IS an autobiography) may have had something to do with this.
"Why is there nothing to do?" Harry cried, kicking an indiscreet plastic... THING... that the Dursleys has sent him for Christmas.
"Why don't you go on work experience?" asked Hermione, tearing her eyes away from Chapter 3: Gay Bars I Have Known (hidden joke there, sorry.)
"What?" asked Harry, not sure he'd heard properly.
"Work experience. I was reading this book by Graham Norton, you know, that TV guy?"
"No, Hermione, I wasn't allowed to watch TV."
"I think I know who you're on about!" Said Ron happily. "That really weird Muggle camp guy? Irish? Weird hair which is now dyed blonde? Rude and somehow really nice?"
"Yeah, him."
"Oh, HIM!" said Harry.
"Try to keep up."
"Sorry."
"Why can't we do a kind of Hogwarts thing of that? You know his previous series, So Graham Norton? I mean, it's V Graham Norton now, but why don't we do a thing of So Harry Potter?"
"Yeah, come on Harry! It'll be so fun! We can interview the teachers and still get on with life!"
"Well.... alright, but we'll have to ask Dumbledore."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Dumbledore's Office~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Please, Professor?"
Dumbledore grinned.
"So you are asking me if you can host an Inter-Schule chat show on weekends called So Harry Potter based on the previously run So Graham Norton from Channel 4?" He asked. Harry marvelled he could fit it all in one sentence.
"Yes, Professor."
"What would it be in aid of?"
"Boredom fighter, interview students and Professors...current teaching company excepted, naturally."
"Oh, no, I would be quite happy for you to interview me. Mind, you would have to get on with your school work as well..."
"I know Professor. Can I?"
"I don't see why not, Harry."
"Yes!"
Harry ran out of the Common room to break the news to Hermione and Ron. Dumbledore sat down, smiling and trying to ignore the raging part of his brain that was accusing him of being suicidal.
So he was suicidal. So what? SO Harry Potter.
Ok, you viewer people. It's your vote. Who is interviewed? YOU decide (Big Brother spoof, I'm sorry, I couldn't resist)
This does have a plot, btw, and will have maybe a bit of angst later. It isn't just a random chat, it works towards Harry CAREER later in life.
