Welcome to Simply Daniel Radcliffe, your ultimate fan source for all things Daniel Radcliffe. Here you will find the latest news, images, videos, and much more on Dan. We are home to the largest gallery in the whole worldwide web with over 149,000 pictures including Events, Photoshoots, stage appearances and much more. We hope you enjoy the site and come back soon.
I’ve been thinking about doing this for the reason that I hate when things look crappy. The captures I did for A Young Doctor’s Notebook were ugly and I thought about redoing them. So I am gonna redo the first 3 episodes and you’ll really love this cause when you see them you’ll be amazed at it. Well at least I was. I’ve always based everything i did on quality rather than quantity which makes this site probably the best on the web for Dan fans. So if you see the captures disappear they are being replaced.
Okay so good news first, we got our first draft for the Norton story. Thank you to the person who submitted it. Anna, who helped with our Daniel Radcliffe Birthday Project wanted to do something for us so she made us a tumblr. I never had any time for one and lost interest in tumblr. So Anna will maintain that part of the site for us.
Bad news at least for me not the site. Two deaths, a relative and my ex. It’s been hard dealing with this. I reopened registration on the site to keep busy. So just wanted to let you know its open now. Thanks to the help of my friends, I love you and dont think I would have the strength to go through this without you.
Having seen the latest episode of A Young Doctor’s Notebook was completely amazing. Dan’s acting in it was brilliant. I’ll be making captures but I am gonna put stuff on hold for a while. Not feeling up to par with the recent death in my family. Yes we had another, so if I am not happy that’s why. So if I don’t answer your emails for gallery registration requests please bare with me. I am not very happy in the least right now. Guess the only thing that keeps my mind off things is doing other things. And while I do have things to do. Just thought I would let you know why I feeling the way I am. I am missing friends and everyone who ever was there for me. I hope you all had good holidays and have a happy new year.
Will be focusing on something positive so, I am gonna make something for you guys and I hope you will like it. Till then love you always.

A very dear friend, Erica wanted to give us a message. Like Amy Duelly, I met Erica on the How to Succeed in Business Without really trying facebook page. We’ve been close for the past two years and she always asked me if she was bothering me while keeping her up to date on what was new with Dan. Erica, you never did and I never minded keeping you up to date as you went to school and did whatever you did out there. I’m proud of you. Take care and Merry Christmas to you.
As for everyone out there a member of SDR or just a person that likes to browse. You guys have been just amazing and In January we will be celebrating our 7th year. Merry Christmas and Have a very good new year.
Ever since the start of the Graham Norton fan fiction posted on our site, it has caused a lot of people to start writing. When we started out, the writings were not in any way referring to the real Dan Radcliffe, but a figment of dreams or situations we created. Some have been saying that they would like to read more on what Graham started so if anyone is interested. We’re gonna give you a chance to add to it whoever is interested. Someone unknown has made a cover for the story already. I removed it, cause it was in the comments and thought I would make it visible to everyone. Credit for the image that was created goes to the penname: Mom.
If interested write a one paragraph intro and if chosen, I will send you info that you will need to know. You can contact me at: mrs_mlucas@lucashq.com
I am currently closing gallery registration since I got lots to do. But if your a close friend of a member or my close friend of mine. I’ll make it a point to add you. I apologize to anyone out there that wants to register. I am planning to make changes so if you really need something asap just ask via email to me. I’ll be around.
The last two years have been the best years of my life. But this year made it the most amazing year because of your support, friendship, love and just being the people you are have given me a reason just to be thankful for it. But three very special people who they know who they are or at least I hope they do. Mean the world to me, they gave me a little more of themselves that they didn’t have to and one watched from afar that I could never thank. But you all are very special to me. I changed a lot because of it. I cut a lot of what I was doing down to a minimum. I got rid of all the facebook pages, got rid of some websites I was maintaining and now I am more happy that I don’t have to do that someone once said the websites were not important and even though that is true. I cannot feel without them I wouldn’t have met such wonderful people. Because of SDR, I’ve become aware that I mean a lot more to society, guess you guys were right. I do have a lot to give and I am gonna do that.
I love you all, have a great year and take care of yourselves out there where ever you are. Cause even though I will be busy, I’ll still be out here watching you.
It’s occurred to me that facebook hates me. So I created a forum, at least there I won’t be blocked for 30 days. But it gives us a chance to communicate and collaborate on what we are working on or what you are working on. I’ve been trying to think of solutions to better manage everything I am working on and facebook is just not cutting it. So i will not be posting news on Daniel there since we already have a news archive. The forum will give you a chance to help me, give me ideas or feedback. If you find an error or have a problem let me know about it. In addition, I will also be posting resources. Graphic resources so you can create your own graphics and perhaps tutorials on things I’ve done. The forum is on admin approval so you wont be added till I activate you. So just wait for the email to be sent to you. Here’s the url to the forum and have a good day.
I wanna thank my very good friend Aty for making SDR a portrait which she drew and painted for us of Dane DeHaan and Daniel Radcliffe. I always admired her artwork. She is very skilled and has become a very good friend. Thank you Aty. You can view the full portrait in the gallery not posting it here for obvious reasons.
Dan-Radcliffe.net is being deleted I am taking my name off the site and closing the flaunt account. Adair, is making a tumblr page for the site however with Flaunt’s policy on updating the site its pretty much useless when its not being updated. So the site goes. It’s been hard to see this site go since taking it over from Michelle but I can no longer do it. Jill never worked on it and Adair can’t maintain it alone. We’ve asked for others to take it over but no one would. It was a stepping stone to learn a lot about Daniel for me, I will miss working on it and the people I worked on it with. To Juliet and Adair, its been great working with you two. <3
Since the appearing of the Graham Norton Show the site crashed because of too much traffic. The Stories mentioned on the show were: Cabin Fever, Distant Hearts and The Last Dance were the ones that I wrote. Solo was written by Emily.
Here’s what the show sent me:
Daniel had a great time on the show and we loved looking at your Fan Fiction site. Graham and the guests tried to write a summary for a new one during the show to submit to your website.
Thanks again for letting us look at your brilliant site. Very much appreciated.
With being the most prominent site on the net. I am gonna be making just a few changes I can’t really say what yet. Cause I am still dealing with some issues I need to sort out but once I get everything sorted out. I will list on what’s been changed. I am also thinking of adding some new stuff. No clue as to what yet but I am always coming up with new things so it could be a very good turn out. I know some of you come to the site and you always seem to make me smile when you say this is the best source for any Dan fan and that I am always up to date.
But right now, I am currently slacking off because of a cold. Which I dont really feel doing registrations right now so they are on hold. When I am better I will get to it. But right now, I am just too out of it and I apologize.

Daniel Radcliffe: I get ‘Extras’ almost as much as I get ‘Harry Potter’. I get – because ‘Extras’ is what… It’s generally men, and it’s generally men between 15 and 25, who don’t really want to like come up and gush about Potter, but they do want to say hello, so the way in has become, like, “hey man, loved you on ‘Extras’, that was great.” “Yeah, thank you.” But I loved doing ‘Extras’, that was… It was 7, it was like 7 or 8 years ago now. It was a long – it doesn’t seem that long, but it was actually quite a while ago now.
George Stroumboulopoulos: It’s incredible how, I mean you’re really young now, but how young you were in that. Did you know Ricky? Did Ricky give – Ricky Gervais?
DR: I was telling that story the other day actually. It’s one of the weirdest – it’s the weirdest way I’ve ever got a job, without a doubt. It’s the first time I’ve ever said yes to without reading a script because it was Ricky Gervais. I was in Australia making ‘December Boys,’ and we had been watching the first series of ‘Extras’. And then one of the local PAs, Caroline, took us to her friend’s house, and they had kangaroos and snakes. And kangaroos are – you can’t just have a kangaroo as a pet in Australia, they have to – I think I’m right in saying, it’s very specific – they have to be found, like, abandoned, in their mother’s pouch, at the roadside, right? And then you can raise them.
GS: Reasonable.
[…]
DR: I spent most of the evening watching a snake crawl around a table and bottle-feeding a kangaroo. And then the phone rang, and it was Ricky Gervais, saying “I’d like you to be on ‘Extras’.” And that was how I got that job. And I said yes. My dad literally – I was in the other room, bottle-feeding a kangaroo, and my dad ran through with the phone going, “um, it, it’s Ricky Gervais. Can you talk to him?” And I was like, “well, yeah.” It was a very, very strange moment. And you know I was such a fan of his at that point, I mean I must have watched the English ‘Office’ in its entirety 3 times at least by that point, and just thought he was a genius, and really was very, very excited to work with him. And I have to say what was interesting about working with him was to really see how – Ricky is obviously an incredibly funny guy and really smart and all that – but how much Stephen Merchant is actually like, it’s a completely equal partnership.
GS: Were the Potter production people – were they okay with that character, what you did on ‘Extras’?
DR: Yeah, yeah. They never really – they never really kicked up a fuss about anything. I mean I’m sure there were a few people who were slightly, when ‘Equus’ was announced was a little bit taken aback, but generally speaking, there wasn’t a morality clause in the contract in terms of what I could go off and do, so I don’t think we ever really worried about it too much.
On ‘Kill Your Darlings’
GS: I wonder if your chance at a better product is improved because you had that kind of reckless fun on the set…
DR: I think so. I absolutely think – well I think it depends what you’re making, but I think ‘Kill Your Darlings’ absolutely benefits from the fact that we had to make it in 25 days for no money, running around New York. Like there is an urgency to it and a vitality that you don’t get if you’re, you know, hanging around for 6 hours between set-ups, and waiting for something – that, I think it’s a much better way of making films, and it’s certainly a much, as an actor it’s much easier.
GS: Do you have to learn a different gear when you’re making a film like that?
DR: No, I think I just have to go to my natural gear. I’ve always had this much energy, and I’ve kind of got it to spare, so being on a film set… I remember someone turned round to me on day 18 of ‘Kill Your Darlings’ and said “you must be knackered,” I’m like “no, my last job was 150 days, this is fine.”
Added tons of stuff from the Whistler film festival so there’s a big gallery update. Added 3 articles to the SDR News Center and also updated RadcliffeMedia, though i think i still have a little more to add there so be sure to check that out. Recently I have made something for Kathleen as she was the winner of the Thanksgiving Contest. And I promise to make some more for her. But this is what I made for her. Also our upcoming layout is featured at LucasHQ so if you are curious you can view it there. I also encourage you to go there and join the page cause that’s where you will get to read important news on what I am working on and what else could possibly go on with the site itself. In a few days, I’ll be writing an FAQ for any problems I have been receiving from you. And Thank you very much to the people that have been submitting images we don’t have. We also have a new affiliate: Jon-Hamm.org
Since all facebook pages are being deleted SDR was the first to go. It’s now permanently deleted. It was a lot of hard work that I didn’t have time for. But LucasHQ is a facebook page that I will post information for all sites, none of the updates will list what the actors are doing but what we are doing. I will list our anniversary updates, problems we are fixing, just different things whatever comes up that people need to know. It’s a way of bringing everyone together on who supports what we do so I hope you will join us and like our page. Here’s the location: LUCASHQ
It’s SDR’s 2 year anniversary since the conversion from HP to Daniel Radcliffe. In January of 2013, the site will be celebrating its 7th year online. Kinda confusing isn’t it?
Several of my very good friends have given me the strength to go forward and its been one hell of a exciting time in my life. To the ones I talk to almost every day, thank you for your support and your help. I couldn’t have done any of this without you guys.
Also forgot to mention thanks to James and Amy Duelly for donating some new pictures to the site. And my dear friend Adair, who drives me insane but knows I love her just as much thanks for helping with the graphics sweetie <3
