Emma Watson: I pounced on Rupert

Emma Watson has confessed she was so desperate to complete her kissing scene with Harry Potter co-star Rupert Grint, she pounced on him.

The 19-year-old actress plays Hermione Granger in film adaptations of JK Rowling's hit novels and has worked with Rupert, who plays Ron Weasely, since she was 11.

In the final film, Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows, their characters share a kiss.

Emma confesses on this week's Friday Night With Jonathan Ross show that she hated kissing Rupert because there was so much public scrutiny in the scene, adding: "I pounced on him, I was so desperate to get it over with."

The young actress also revealed she plans to continue acting, despite starting university in September.

She said: "Definitely... I'm so excited about going to university but it doesn't mean to say I can't do something else, I want to have my cake and eat it... I'd like to try comedy."

And Emma insists starting acting at such a young age did not mean missing out on her childhood.

She said: "I never felt like I was missing out... we were able to be kids because we were together, whatever weird thing we were doing."

Jonathan's other guest Sandra Bullock denies having had plastic surgery, saying: "I was accused of it, but no-one has asked me to alter my appearance."

Friday Night With Jonathan Ross airs on BBC One at 10.35pm on Friday July 3.
