Magpies are members of the Jackdaw family so they are quite far removed from crows.
Hi Bill
Magpies, Jackdaws and Crows are all part of the Corvid family. However, the only interbreeding that I know of within this group is Carrion Crows with Hooded Crows.

Hi Sandy,
Yes you are correct and I would have made more sense if I had put "larger" in front of crows.
I was trying to say was that Magpies are more closely related to the small Corvids like the Jackdaws and Choughs.

Carrion and Hooded crows are (until now) the same species. There are moves to split them, but, for now, they are the same bird!
