The Worst Witch: Sorcery And Chips

"She's a klutzy, troublesome, female Harry Potter who can't tell nightshade from newt eyes." - Premiere Video Magazine

Before Harry Potter, author Jill Murphy captivated audiences with her best-selling tales of Mildred Hubble, a hopelessly clumsy young witch-in-training. Murphy's wonderful stories are even rumored to have been the inspiration behind the phenomenal Harry Potter creation.

Enter the gloomy halls of Miss Cackle's Academy for Witches, a school where chemistry class involves magic potions, final exams center on spells and students ride broomsticks instead of bicycles. No matter how hard she tries, poor Mildred just can't seem to cut it: her incantations backfire and she cannot ride her broom without unleashing a calamity. Still, she never gives up trying, so join Mildred and her friends for plenty of riotous adventure and magical mayhem.

Sorcery and Chips
The school's potion lab is being modernized with all sorts of computerized gadgets and software. At first, the changes are impressive - until something evil takes a hold of the machinery. Soon, it downloads plans to take over the world via the Internet! Can Mildred's old-fashioned methods banish it?

Let Them Eat Cake
The gang has a plan to sneak into Mrs. Cosie's Tearoom, a wonderful, but strictly off limits, haven of delicious treats. During their illicit feast, they manage to overhear some mysterious patrons revealing a disturbing plan: the site of the tearoom is to be turned into a toxic waste incinerator! Can Mildred and her friends set things right before it's too late?

Sweet Talking Guys
The Chief Wizard and Miss Cackle have decided that the students need more practice in public speaking. A debate is arranged between the young witches and three apprentices from the local wizard's school. After the first half, it looks like the girls have it in the bag. Even Mildred does particularly well. Then, the boys try to fix the game with their magic "fizzy juice", which creates some unlikely "guest speakers."

A Bolt From the Blue
It is nearly the end of Mildred's first year at the Academy. One evening, a fierce wind blows through the school. Everyone seems fine afterwards except for Miss Cackle, who suddenly insists on expelling Mildred! Something is clearly wrong and Mildred suspects the culprit is Miss Cackle's evil sister. When she tries to find out what is going on, the result is a powerful showdown of magic!
