Harry Potter - Radcliffe's Delight Over Dahl Kiss

HARRY POTTER star DANIEL RADCLIFFE has fulfilled his schoolboy dreams - with a kiss from former model SOPHIE DAHL.

The actor admits the British beauty was his favourite pin-up during his adolescent years, and even joked he wanted to marry her.

He was delighted when he received a peck on the cheek from the six-foot tall (1.82 metre) blonde at the premiere of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix in 2007 - and was thrilled when she later wrote to him after an appearance at the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) awards.

Radcliffe says, "She was at the fifth (Potter) film premiere and kissed me on the cheek. I turned round to her and said, 'Thank you, because you've given me closure on my adolescent years.'

"I got a note from her congratulating me on how I'd presented an award at the BAFTAs. I think we know what this means - she wants to marry me!"
