Harry Potter fans have successfully pushed a $580 million power project to change course after discovering that an underground cable could pass through the spot where Dobby, the fictional house elf, was buried in the film series.
Dobby was killed and laid to rest on Freshwater West beach in Pembrokeshire, Wales, in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
But following the BBC interview, Ludlam told the Energy Revolution podcast the company began receiving hundreds of calls from angry Harry Potter fans demanding that the route be changed.
Hundreds of Harry Potter fans visit Dobby's memorial every year.
Asked about Harry Potter fans nearly derailing the multimillion-pound interconnector, Ludlam said the project had to remain adaptable and responsive.
