Congratulations to our dear friend Victoria Maclean!

Victoria has just earned the Wizarding World Collection world record (which includes the Fantastic Beasts series) with her 3686 JK Rowling-related items.

Victoria, YouTuber, 38, said: "I screamed a lot - it was so incredible after all these months."

It was while she was pregnant in 2001 that Mrs Maclean's magical love affair began.

She was watching a segment on Blue Peter about Harry Potter and - two weeks later - had bought and read the first book.

Since then, the mother-of-three has collected every book, DVD, toy, bag, item of clothing and piece of jewellery she can - as well as a host of other collectibles.

"I'll never stop collecting until I really, really have to. I don't smoke, I rarely drink - this is my vice," she added.

As part of the record assessment, all items were assessed and verified by two independent witnesses - one of whom had to be a specialist in the area - and only official merchandise counted towards Mrs Maclean's total.
