I know there is a lot of similarites with "The Worst Witch" and "Harry Potter & ..." but this doesn't have to be badly drawn in with so many of the sentences. Its tacky and pointless. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.206.10.153 ( talk • contribs) 00:57, 28 October 2006
But it's important for people to realise that The Worst Witch came before Harry Potter, so it is recognised for its originality (that clearly inspired others). 80.47.148.228 17:01, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

I've created a page called Works analogous to Harry Potter which features The Worst Witch. I'd appreciate it if one of you could locate an interview with Jill Murphy in which she mentions JK Rowling. I'd be even more pleased if you could locate an interview in which she ever considered suing her. As it stands, the comparisons to Harry Potter on this page are not referenced, and are therefore original research. Serendipodous 11:28, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
I have removed the reference to "Dame" from Diana Rigg's name, because she was not bestowed with that title until 1994, almost a decade after the Worst Witch video was made... in other words, she wasn't a Dame at the time she performed in this, so she shouldn't be credited as such.

I'd just like to note in the tv series, Ethel's face was not described as plastic surgery. It was described as a "magical makeover" according to Ethel. (Personally, I never noticed the difference) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.142.32.28 ( talk) 18:14, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
Now that there is a separate article on the TV series, could someone who knows the books remove the TV references from the character descriptions? Robina Fox ( talk) 18:27, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
I have removed non canon family members from the article. Decat2 ( talk) 01:30, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

This article has been rated Stub as there is so little about the "Novel series" itself. There is huge scope for this to be created as a separate article with later article for each novel. But it will need plenty of material and referencing to warrant that. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/ (Desk) 10:40, 10 January 2008 (UTC) |

Three Cheers for the Worst Witch (2017) needs adding to 'The Worst Witch' series.
And the spin off books:
The Worst Witch's Spelling Book (1995) and Fun with the Worst Witch (2014) need their own section or pages adding somewhere.

Huon I see. However now I've just noticed there really is an 8th book coming out in September 2018 called First Prize for the Worst Witch
https://www.penguin.co.uk/puffin/books/269855/first-prize-for-the-worst-witch/
https://www.theguardian.com/books/2017/jan/25/jill-murphy-worst-witch-career-classic-children-author
I still think those 3 books that aren't officially part of the series need adding to Wikipedia somewhere. Danstarr69 ( talk) 08:17, 21 April 2018 (UTC)
