Weirdsister College

The Worst Witch was part of my childhood when it first started airing and I loved the books as well, and I still love it today at 17. Wierdsister College was an interesting TV series, derived from the books by Jill Murphy. I do not think it is as good as the Worst Witch, but it is a decent series. Of course the stories aren't as planned out and as original as the ones in the Worst Witch. And there are several characters who I adored in the Worst Witch like Miss Hardbroom and Maud that sadly are missing. But on its own, Wierdsister College is pretty good. The acting is very spirited, especially from Georgina Sherrington and Felicity Jones as Ethel, the music is good and the special effects and camera work are decent. There are also some memorable and funny moments that make the series watchable, and the writing is above average. Shame it didn't last longer, because this was not bad at all, not as good as Worst Witch, but worth a peek. 8/10 Bethany Cox

This is a spin-off of the popular "Worst Witch" series on YTV, and it was a poor show. All the good characters were gone, and the writing had taken a sharp turn for the worse. Mildred was no longer clumsy, kind, or endearing--she was scheming and sophisticated.

I love both The Worst Witch and Weirdsister College, although it is a shame to see that many of the characters did not return in Weirdsister College.

In what way do you mean that Ethel Hallow has changed? If you mean the actress has changed please refer to http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0179061/ you will see that the actress Felicity Jones played Ethel Hallow in 'The Worst Witch' for 2 years (1998-1999). Ethel Hallow was then played by Katy Allen from 1999-2001. In 'Wierdsister College'however, Felicity Jones returns to play Ethel Hallow.

The worst witch 1998, Is so much more than epic series... Its totally amazing spending the childhood with lovable friends and a fun background.... The new worst witch, Is much more adventurous and amazing than i ever imagined.... The weirdsister college 2001, Is so much better, cool and amazing, actually i have no words to express my feelings towards this series of mildred hubble and the other characters as well. Personally i do wish for more season to come (weiredsister) as its totally worth it..... Do hope to see the whole old cast again soon with the ww, nww and wsc 10/10.

I loved The Worst Witch series, and this spin-off is also brilliant.

Very much recommend.

The characters are all well-written and interesting. My personal favourites are Mildred, Ethel, Hobbes and Prof. Thunderblast.

The episodes are all entertaining, with good climaxes.

This show is certainly one to put on your IMDB watchlist, especially if you are into this kind of show! It is a very good magical fantasy drama, and I personally prefer it to Harry Potter (others will of course disagree)

The cast are brilliant actors, in particular Young Artist Award Winning Georgina Sherrington, Oscar Nominated Felicity Jones, and late veteran actress Charmian May.
