Spall as Peter Pettigrew.

He was so determined to pocket a memento from his work on the Harry Potter films, he snatched a prosthetic ear from the film set. He says, "I lifted a prosthetic ear while filming Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. It's strictly frowned upon, but it was too good to pass by. It will live on a shelf at home. If they're truthful, most performers try to get a souvenir from every job they do."

Spall voices a dog in Tim Burton's 2010 film "Alice In Wonderland", alongside Alan Rickman, Frances de la Tour, Imelda Staunton and Helena Bonham Carter and Nathaniel in Enchanted.
