Overview
- James and Oliver Phelps are back at Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden to film season 2 of Food Network's Harry Potter: Wizards of Baking.
- Oliver Phelps recalls Great Hall shoot days packed with people and real food that left the set smelling of roasting or oiled vegetables.
- He jokes the lingering odor from banquet tableaux — including turkeys under hot lights — was like "smelly socks."
- The twins say the baking competition in the same space now carries frosting and sponge cake scents instead of overcooked turkey.
- They reminisce about playing soccer in the Great Hall and cricket on Privet Drive, and the series airs Sundays at 8 p.m. ET with next-day streaming on Max and discovery+.
