As everyone rushes from the bathroom, Mildred rushes in. She trips and – impossibly – grabs the rope for bell-ringing (which apparently lives between the dorms and the bathrooms), ruining HB’s bell ringing. The song shows a montage of Mildred failing. I was terrified of him as a kid.Īlso, as the chubby kid who walks with a limp, how do I not empathise with kid who is failing at everything, rather than a super wizard with odd intonation who is shilling Halloween to an audience already totes in love with it?įIGHT ME. You’re supposed to like Tim Curry’s song best. And then we have my personal favourite of the songs in this, Growing Up by Bonnie Langford. HB flies up to the bell and jabs it with her wand to wake the students. Miss Hardbroom is referred to as HB in the books by the kids, so I’m sticking with that. Side note: It also looks like the courtyard from Potter. We have some truly outstanding CG of Miss Hardbroom flying on her broom to the top of the school. Possibly an inspiration for Dumbledore, because I find it impossible to believe that Rowling never read The Worst Witch. She greets Miss Cackle (the headmistress), who says that it’s a lovely morning with the most bizarre intonation.

Surely the original copy could be cleaned up a little and re-released, or am I showing woeful ignorance about technology? I don’t imagine it could be 1080p or anything, but I’m watching a legitimate digital copy, and it’s as if I’m watching VHS on the old fuzzy TV we had in the 80s. With the quality of this copy, it could be a picture of my cat for all I can see.

Inside the cupboard is a picture of the unfortunately named, Grand Wizard (Tim Curry). A cupboard pops open and her broom floats towards her. We cut to Miss Hardbroom being smug and efficient, as she straightens her hat and snaps her fingers. So no, it couldn’t house multiple classrooms and dorms. The reason I know this? It’s about the same size as the main hall of my primary school, which had about 100 students maximum. We open with a shot of a teeny-tiny castle that absolutely and unequivocally cannot house a school, much less a boarding school.

Recap: This cannot house an entire school plus dorms We’re happy to share it with you, but it is ours. Around the same time everyone thought to themselves, “You know what, I’m going to record The Worst Witch, so I can watch it outside of Halloween”, that was the moment it stopped being shown. Right up until everyone started having VCRs. It was on every Halloween without fail for so many years. While pumpkins and trick or treating may be the staples of Halloween to you guys, this this is the one thing we remember. However! This is the only thing we did for Halloween in the eighties (well, this and Ghostwatch, which I have also recapped as a double-bill). You knock it out of the park, while we just watch in helpless envy. I know you do Halloween so much better than us, that’s a fact. Can Mildred foil the plan before the Grand Wizard (Tim Curry) comes to the Academy for the Halloween celebration you’ll never forget? Initial Thoughts: The headmistress of the school, Miss Cackle (Charlotte Rae), has an evil twin sister (Agatha) who plans to destroy the school. She can’t seem to do anything right and is picked on by classmates and teachers.

Summary: Mildred Hubble (Fairuza Balk) is one of the young girls at a prestigious witch academy. Tagline: Things never go right for Mildred Hubble… Title: The Worst Witch (1986) – or the definitive Worst Witch, for our generation
