 Yes your right Jon!
But with paradoy/spoof there is a piont when it can become a copyright breach.
JKR agressivly retains absolute copyright;- 
If this be a spoof, why did they not change it at least to say 'Hairy trotter', along with the characters names & other recoginisable icons/logos?

For an excellent example of a "derivative" work, see this discussion board under the topic branch:
Community Theater Green Room Discussion Board :Producing Theater :Play Suggestions

Sometimes the copyright holder for a work does not normally or usually provide a licensed and/or authorized stage adaptation of a work -- for example, the movie Clue.

Despite this, in the case of Clue, MANY groups have both adapted it for the stage and performed their adaptation for the public, but without any permission from the legal holder(s) of the copyright for the work.
