VILLAGERS in Lacock will be logging on to the internet to catch a sneak preview of the next Harry Potter film.

Exclusive pictures of Harry Potter, The Chamber of Secrets have been premiered ahead of the film's November release date.

Hollywood movie producers from Warner Brothers used the village's historic abbey for the second time as a setting for the Hogwarts School of Wizardry and Witchcraft.

Scenes were filmed earlier this year using the abbey's cloisters.

Pub landlords and business owners in the village hope the second movie will reap thousands of pounds of extra tourism revenue this summer.

Directed by Chris Columbus, the second instalment of the Harry Potter series is expected to outstrip the $900m worldwide box office receipts generated by The Philosopher's Stone.
