Trivia[]

  • The 7th episode in the series (Dr. Foster, I presume) is a reference to the quote "Dr. Livingstone, I presume." by Henry Morton Stanley.
  • The twelfth episode in the series (The Whisperer) is the only episode in the series that was marked To Be Continued...
  • Felicity Jones returns to playing Ethel Hallow, as for seasons 2 and 3 of The Worst Witch she shaped her appearance to hide the fact she is sister of winy Sybil Hallow. When she came to Weirdsister, she felt as though it was safe to change back, and resumed the appearance of Ethel Hallow of The Worst Witch season 1.
  • Weirdsister College had a working title of The Worst Witch: The College Years.
