Show Summary

EDIT

The Worst Witch is a famous show both in the United kingdom, Canada and USA. Mildred (Milly) Hubble started Cackle's Academy to start her new life as a witch. On the first day of school she arrived late to school, crashing into the school grounds, not a very good start to the first day of school at all! From day one Miss Hardbroom (Played by Kate Duchene) absolutely hated Mildred and she wasn't the only one, Ethel and Drusilla made her life a living hell too. Luckily she made good friends, Enid, Ruby, Maud and Jadu. Even though her spells turn into a disaster and she can't fly her broomstick, she always saves the day! Characters Mildred - Main character - Mildred doesn't came from a witch family like the other girls, but earns a scholarship to Cackle's Academy by writing a creative essay. She is a terrible witch, but a good friend to Enid, Maud, ruby and Jadu. Ethel Hallow & Drusilla - Mildred's Nemesis's - Together, they make Mildred's life quite unpleasant through lying, trickery and sabotage. Maud - Mildred's friend - Maud Moonshine befriends Mildred on the first day of term, by rescuing her from the dustbins, and they quickly become best friends. Enid - Mildred's friend - Enid transfers to Cackle's after the half-term break. The shy and reserved new girl turns out to be quite a handful, when she decides to teach the snotty Ethel a lesson she won't soon forget. Jadu - Mildred's friend - Jadu is a great sport and is quick to catch onto things that aren't always apparent. Ruby - Mildred's friend - Ruby Cherrytree has a particular liking for gadgets. On the first day of term, Miss Hardbroom, who hates technology of any kind, catches her with a Walkman and confiscates it. Onward Ever Striving Onward Proudly On our Brooms we fly...

The Worst Witch is based on the book series of the same name that was written in 1974. In many ways, this show is a lot like Harry Potter and Wizards of Waverly Place. The heroine is Mildred Hubble, who comes from a non-witch background in England and is sent to a witches boarding school. The show has its elements of humor and youthful awkwardness. Mildred is a nice, well-intentioned girl whose learning is impeded by her clumsiness, fears, Miss Hardbroom and Ethel Hallow. Even though she is a female witch, I'm sure most can relate to the adversities we all had to face in our younger years. A great show for kids and some adults.moreless

A Great Show For Kids

The Worst Witch was one of my favourite t.v shows when i was younger, whenever it came on I wouldn't look away from the T.v for a second.

Each episode was funny and amusing, as you could never quite tell just what Mildred and her friends would get up to.

The cast were fabulous especially the teenagers like Georgina Sherrington and Katie Allen.

When the show ended, I was sad but a while later a spin-off appeared 'Weirdsister collage' this show however was nowhere near as good as 'Worst Witch' as it had skipped a year and a lot of the original cast didn't appear. One of the other things was the character of Ethel Hallow, in series one of 'Worst Witch' she'd been played by Felicity Jones, in series 2 Katie Allen took over the role and in 'Weirdsister' it was Felicity Jones again. this was a major turn off.

The Worst Witch remains a childhood favourite but i recommend avoiding Weirdsister College/.moreless
