London, England (BANG) - Rupert Grint is a "great kisser".

The 20-year-old actor spends the first half of 'Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince' swapping saliva with co-star Jessie Cave and the actress couldn't have been happier.

The 22-year-old star told BANG Showbiz: "I play Lavender Brown, who is totally in love with Rupert's character Ron Weasley.

"I can't describe how happy I was when I got the part, but I did have to kiss Rupert - a lot! Luckily, he's a great kisser, excellent even. It was hard not to laugh in the beginning but in the end, I had a great time!"

Bonnie Wright - who plays Harry's love interest Ginny Weasley - didn't enjoy her saucy scenes with Daniel Radcliffe as much.

She said: "It was so awkward! We've all been friends for years and we've grown up together so it was really strange to be kissing Daniel all of a sudden. I was so embarrassed but it was OK. It's a really quick kiss and it's a really romantic scene, so it's quite nice. And he's actually quite a good kisser.
