Tom Felton loses phone and passport, enlists internet, tweets Harry Potter meme
The actor – best known to us muggles as Draco Malfoy – was having a very bad day at the airport in America

Tom Felton is having a bad day. The Harry Potter actor has gone and lost his phone and passport during a journey from Los Angeles to New York. In the words of Draco Malfoy: “If brains were gold, you’d be poorer than Weasley, and that’s saying something.”
“Accio passport!” doesn’t seem to have worked, but rather than book a stay in a NYC hotel and pay a visit to the phone shop and British embassy, Tom enlisted the magic of social media to help reunite him with his lost possessions.
First his phone was recovered…

… but his passport remained MIA:
Phone returned to its rightful owner. Passport still missing.

We sense there’s a bit of horseplay going on here. But rather than sob into his travel pillow, Tom saw the funny side, borrowing a pose from his famous bleach-haired wizard to sum up his feelings. A Harry Potter actor who tweets Harry Potter memes?

Our theory? Perhaps a certain reality star has borrowed his travel documents…
… and it seems he agrees
Glad you’ve got your passport back, Tom…
