Hertfordshire firefighters were called last Friday to put out a fire on the set of the latest Harry Potter film.
It is thought a battle scene involving a mocked up castle outside Leavesdon Studios got out of control at around 8.30 pm.
Around 20 firefighters attended, but by the time they reached the studios on-set crews had managed to get the blaze under control.
Crews then used an aerial ladder platform and thermal imaging cameras to dampen down any hotspots and left the scene shortly after 9.30 that evening, a spokesperson told info4fire.
“The side of the castle had caught fire, but since it was all being filmed outside there was no damage done to the studio buildings,” she said.
Fans of the films have speculated that the fire was caused by pyrotechnics in the filming of the final scene of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
