“The Unbreakable Vow” | Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, Part 1 with Law Sharma

A bridge attack in broad daylight, a Slytherin professor disguised as furniture, and teenage hormones bubbling over faster than a misread potion - sixth year brings secrets, suspicion, and one very dangerous textbook. Host Rhianna Dhillon is joined by Law Sharma to look back at the first half of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Together, they unpack Slughorn’s return to Hogwarts, Draco’s turn to the dark side, Harry’s mysterious new potions book, and the messy Romione-Lavender love triangle. Plus, editor Mark Day joins to reveal how Half-Blood Prince finds its rhythm between comedy, tragedy, teen romance, and horror, from shaping Slughorn’s lighter moments to preserving the power of Alan Rickman’s legendary pauses.
