It's been Agatha all along! Charlotte Rae teaches us about some very different facts of life as Miss Cackle's evil twin in The Worst Witch (1986). Are people born wicked, or do they have cheap pink wigs and bin bags thrust upon them?

Gay gasps abound on our episode about The Witches (1990) with @robwillb.bsky.social when discussing other actresses potentially considered for the role of the Grand High Witch, so memorably played by Anjelica Huston.

We loved chatting about The Craft (1996) with @junodawson on our latest episode. We have complicated feelings about it, but what a cast!
