Stephen Fry was contacted to read for the Harry Potter audio books. The first time he met JK Rowling she told him she had already wrote a second book. He said in a condescending tone, "Well good for you."
When he was reading the third or fourth book there was the phrase "Harry pocketed it". Fry could not say it, after many tries he called Rowling asking to change the phrase. She said no because kids reading along would get confused by the change.
So Fry finally got the phrase recorded, and then every Potter book after that Rowling included the phrase "Harry pocketed it" just as a jab at Fry.
Off topic but a fun fact...
