The youngster also does a magic trick while he is at the castle and thanks Ellen for sending him to England.
The video can be seen on YouTube by searching Britton Goes to Britain. Ellen also promoted the feature by tweeting about it via @TheEllenShow and her message features a short video of the young lad on his broomstick at Alnwick Castle.
Later this year, Alnwick Castle hosts an outdoor screening of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone. Visit alnwickcastle.com or thelunacinema.com for more details and ticket information.
