Unlike with Neil DeGrasse Tyson, with Dawkins, I would be quite surprised if he brought that up without being quite specifically asked about it…

It's probably from an hour long portrait interview, in which they cover a lot of ground including favourite English literary pieces, and the interviewer tries to tie it to the guest. They would probably ask David Beckham which Harry Potter character he'd have on his football team.

I'd have thought Dean Thomas. Isn't he a West Ham fan? He'd at least know the rules, which is probably more than can be said of the average wizard.

Dawkins would have shitposted on Twitter with the best of them if he'd been born later

Tragically, not.
