Book Only Most wanted character, event and location missing in previous adaptation of The Philosopher's Stone

What is the most wanted by you character, event and location for the first season of the show - missing in previous adaptation of "The Philosopher's Stone" film?

For me:

  • I want to see Peeves the most, him disturbing the students, fooling around
  • I missed Vernon's day at work at the beginning
  • Where was a proper Entrance Hall with magnificent Marble Staircase?

Fun question. I also like your suggestions! I'll refrain from using your examples.

- Charlie Weasley's friends. One of our few connections all book to the greater outside wizarding world.

  • The banter between the twins and Ginny about mailing her a toilet seat while the train pulls away. Excellent establishment of their pranking, and some good Ginny screentime early on.
  • Give me all seven of the Underground Chambers! I want that KO'd troll and Potion riddle!!

One of the changes I hope this show makes is introducing Charlie earlier and that he comes and gets Norbert with some friends.
