00:00This castle will not only be your home this year,
00:04but home to some very special guests as well.
00:07You see, Hogwarts has been chosen...
00:20So, Hogwarts has been chosen to host a legendary event,
00:26the Triwizard Tournament.
00:29Now, for those of you who do not know,
00:31the Triwizard Tournament brings together three schools
00:34for a series of magical contests.
00:37For each school, a single student is selected to compete.
00:40Now, let me be clear.
00:42If chosen, you stand alone.
00:45And trust me when I say,
00:47these contests are not for the faint-hearted.
00:50But more of that later.
00:52For now, please join me in welcoming
00:55the lovely ladies of the Beaubattons Academy of Magic
00:59and their headmistress, Madame Maxine.
01:16Bloody hell!
01:25Blimey! That's one big woman.
01:50And now, our friends from the north,
01:52please greet the proud sons of Drumstrang
01:55and the Highmaster, Igor Kakarov.
02:22Blimey! It's him!
02:24Victor Crump!
02:25I'm here, Tim!
02:35Malchus!
02:37Malchus!
02:37Malchus!
02:40Malchus!
02:45Parangus!
02:53Malchus!
02:54have traveled a long way.
02:56They will need attending to.
02:57Not to worry, Madame Maxine.
02:58Our gamekeeper Hagrid's more than capable of seeing to them.
03:02But you know, Monsieur Hagrid,
03:05they drink only single malt whiskey.
03:13You idiot!
03:20Your attention, please!
03:24I'd like to say a few words.
03:29Eternal glory!
03:31That is what awaits the student
03:33who wins the Triwizard Tournament.
03:35But to do this, that student
03:37must survive three tasks.
03:40Three
03:41extremely dangerous tasks.
03:44Wicked.
03:45For this reason, the Ministry
03:46had seen fit to impose a new rule.
03:49To explain all this,
03:51we have the head of the Department
03:52of International Magical Co-operation,
03:55Mr. Bartimus Crouch.
04:11What the hell?
04:13It's Matai Moody.
04:15Alistair Moody.
04:16The Aura.
04:17Aura?
04:18Dark wizard catcher.
04:20Arthur Seldon Azkaban and Phil, thanks to him.
04:23He's supposed to be mad as I had to, though, these days.
04:37My dear old friend, thanks for coming.
04:40It's a stupid feeling.
04:49What study's drinking, do you suppose?
04:51I don't know,
04:52but I don't think it's pumpkin juice.
05:01After due consideration,
05:03the Ministry has concluded
05:05that for their own safety,
05:06no student under the age of 17
05:09should be allowed to put forth their name
05:12for the tribe wizard tournament.
05:14This decision is finished.
05:16That's rubbish!
05:17You don't know what you're doing!
05:19Silence!
05:21Silence!
05:22Silence!
05:23Silence!
05:28Silence!
05:29Silence!
05:30Silence!
05:33Silence!
05:35Silence!
05:36Silence!
05:36Silence!
05:42The Goblet of Fire!
05:45Anyone wishing to submit themselves to the tournament
05:48need only write their name upon a piece of parchment
05:50and throw it in the flame before this hour on Thursday night.
05:55Do not do so lightly.
05:58If chosen, there's no turning back.
06:02As from this moment,
06:03the Triwizard Tournament has begun.
