The original cast of ITV's The Worst Witch: where are they now?
From Miss Cackle's Academy to Hollyoaks and a galaxy far far away, what happened to Mildred Hubble & co?

The former Archers actor has gone on to become a Star Wars heroine in Rogue One and an Oscar nominee for her role in The Theory of Everything. She's also starred in British rom-com Chalet Girl, The Tempest, Like Crazy, and period dramas Servants, Northanger Abbey and Brideshead Revisited, to name but a few.
Jessica Fox – Enid Nightshade
Mildred's well-meaning pal Enid was quite the practical joker and somehow always seemed to end up getting her friends in trouble, and some might say actress Jessica Fox still channels the little trouble maker as Hollyoaks' Nancy.
She's been playing the role since 2006, in Hollyoaks, Hollyoaks Later and Tom Osbourne's Life. Oh and did you know she's the voice of The Ghost of Christmas Past in The Muppet Christmas Carol?

Holly Rivers – Drusilla Paddock
Ethel Hallow's best bud and partner in crime Drusilla is still an actress and also became a TV presenter in her post Worst Witch days. She's currently a drama facilitator for children and a self-confessed "aspiring children's fiction writer".
