Unfortunately, we only met Charity Burbage at the end of her life – but we can tell that she was a kind and loving person. Hermione always spoke very highly of her classes, as she found her personally fascinating (but known to give way too much homework). Professor Burbage served as the Professor of Muggle Studies at Hogwarts for fours straight years, before being grabbed by the Dark Lord, and tortured and killed at Malfoy Manor by Voldemort and the Death Eaters.
Charity was known for having quite a liberal stance concerning muggles, and believed that they were not so different from wizards at all. It was this opinion, however, that ended up getting her killed.
Ellie Darcey-Alden as Young Lily Potter
Although we only met her through a peek at Snape's old memories, we still learned so much about the talented Lily Potter, mother to Harry, and the world she grew up in, in those brief but special moments. There was nothing more exciting to us fans than watching Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Parts 1 & 2, and learning about how everything from all the previous movies fits together and adds up to a perfect picture of the story of Harry's parents.
The young Lily Potter appears very briefly, if you consider the length of the entire franchise, but we see her just enough to afford us those much yearned for ‘a-haaaaaa' moments, and that's all we can ask for.
Ellie Darcey-Alden Now
Ellie Darcey-Alden could not have been more perfect for the part of the young Lily Potter, what with her kind face, her skills and them being the same age and all. If only she wasn't a muggle. I guess you can't have it all. However, this young actress seems to have a lot going for her. Having made her professional debut when appearing in a stage production of Aladdin, in 2007, Ellie Darcey-Alden immediately landed herself a part in the TV series, Tess of the D'urbervilles, and went right on to Robin Hood, and eventually Dr. Who. Wow.
Since her time in the Wizarding World, Ellie has been constantly busy in front of the cameras, as well behind them working as a voice-over actress. She has since expanded her repertoire and added professional dancing to her lengthy list of talents.
Carolyn Pickles Now
It's fair to say that Carolyn Pickles has built up a pretty steady acting career since her appearance on the Harry Potter franchise. Although her role as Charity Burbage is still known as one of her most prominent ones, she has also appeared in a number of British TV shows, such as Midsummer Murders, Foyle's War, Kingdom, and others.
In 2013, Carolyn played Maggie Radcliffe, a journalist in the ITV drama, Broadchurch, and later appeared again in Seasons 2 and 3. Unfortunately, she hasn't starred in anything since, but last year, Carolyn Pickles recorded an interview for The Bill Podcast, celebrating her life and career.
Julie Walters as Molly Weasley
It's fair to say that the Weasley family are like the family Harry never had (or wishes he didn't have with a family like the Dursley's), and what's more, is despite their many children, the Weasleys still accept Harry into their family, warmly and open-heartedly. From the very beginning, Molly Weasley treats Harry as one of her own, without a second thought about all the baggage that comes with caring for The Boy Who Lived.
Needless to say, they all become a very important part of Harry's life. Serving as Harry's adoptive mother, Molly Weasley is one of the most caring people in the entire franchise. But like a good mother, she always knows just when to put her foot down.
