0:00:02 > 0:00:04And when was anyone thinking of telling me about this fire?
0:00:04 > 0:00:06- Crackles at Cackle's?- None of that was your fault.
0:00:06 > 0:00:08I'm not sure Mrs Hallow would agree.
0:00:08 > 0:00:11Miss Cackle's expecting a lot from today.
0:00:11 > 0:00:14- Do something!- It's too late. - No, it's not.
0:00:14 > 0:00:17Where's Mildred Hubble?
0:00:17 > 0:00:21There's been a serious complaint made about your conduct.
0:00:54 > 0:00:56I hate early mornings.
0:00:56 > 0:00:59Technically speaking, it isn't morning yet.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02The sun rises in one minute precisely.
0:01:02 > 0:01:04Point is, why are we awake before the sun?
0:01:04 > 0:01:10Because I am in charge of the school today, Beatrice Bunch. That's why.
0:01:10 > 0:01:12But Miss Hardbroom, where's Miss Cackle?
0:01:12 > 0:01:15Lessons will commence one hour earlier than usual.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17Everyone dressed,
0:01:17 > 0:01:21and then outside for a 20-minute run before breakfast.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23SIGHS AND GROANS
0:01:27 > 0:01:29What's the point of a witch running,
0:01:29 > 0:01:32when we've got broomsticks to get around?
0:01:32 > 0:01:34A fit witch makes a better witch, Ethel.
0:01:34 > 0:01:37Almost there, girls. Breakfast is waiting.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39Miss Drill, do you know where Miss Cackle is?
0:01:39 > 0:01:41I know as much as you, Mildred.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43Smoked fish.
0:01:43 > 0:01:45Brain food, apparently.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50Miss Hardbroom's asked me to supervise this lot.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53Emergency staff meeting for you in five minutes.
0:01:53 > 0:01:55Oh. Really?
0:01:55 > 0:01:57Well, in that case...
0:01:58 > 0:02:00What's the emergency?
0:02:00 > 0:02:03Has it got something to do with Miss Cackle not being here?
0:02:03 > 0:02:05I don't know.
0:02:05 > 0:02:06I'll go and find out.
0:02:27 > 0:02:29I know it is unusually early for a staff meeting,
0:02:29 > 0:02:34but I have a serious matter to discuss with you this morning.
0:02:34 > 0:02:35It concerns Miss Cackle.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38The Great Wizard has summoned her
0:02:38 > 0:02:42to appear before the Magic Council today.
0:02:42 > 0:02:44Aperi Portum.
0:02:51 > 0:02:57- A disciplinary hearing?- Yes. - That's awful. Poor Miss Cackle.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00What does that mean, exactly?
0:03:00 > 0:03:03It means Miss Cackle's position at this school is in jeopardy.
0:03:03 > 0:03:09After today, she may no longer be our headmistress.
0:03:09 > 0:03:10No!
0:03:12 > 0:03:14There's more, I'm afraid.
0:03:14 > 0:03:18Alongside this enquiry into Miss Cackle, the council,
0:03:18 > 0:03:19in their wisdom...
0:03:19 > 0:03:20MILDRED SNEEZES
0:03:26 > 0:03:28Mildred Hubble?
0:03:28 > 0:03:30Hello, Miss Hardbroom. I was just about to knock.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33I literally just got here.
0:03:33 > 0:03:34This second. Right now.
0:03:34 > 0:03:35What do you want?
0:03:37 > 0:03:39Smoked fish! For breakfast.
0:03:39 > 0:03:40Every day. We love it.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42Ask Miss Tapioca, not me.
0:03:42 > 0:03:43Go.
0:03:46 > 0:03:47Go!
0:03:52 > 0:03:55Alongside the investigation into Miss Cackle,
0:03:55 > 0:03:57the council wish to take a look at the school.
0:03:57 > 0:04:02- What for?- To see if it is safe and fit for purpose.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04They are sending an inspector.
0:04:04 > 0:04:09- When's that?- Three hours, five minutes' time precisely.
0:04:10 > 0:04:13Therefore, in Miss Cackle's absence,
0:04:13 > 0:04:17it is imperative that when Miss Doomstone arrives...
0:04:17 > 0:04:19- I thought she'd retired. - Miss Doomstone?
0:04:19 > 0:04:20You know her?
0:04:20 > 0:04:23They used to call her Doomstone the Destroyer.
0:04:23 > 0:04:26The terminator of schools.
0:04:26 > 0:04:29All the more reason to make sure
0:04:29 > 0:04:33that the school be presented in the best possible light.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35This is no ordinary inspection.
0:04:35 > 0:04:40The fate of Miss Cackle and the entire school depends upon it.
0:04:42 > 0:04:45For this reason, I do not wish the girls to be informed.
0:04:45 > 0:04:47Why's that?
0:04:47 > 0:04:52Because nerves and magic do not mix.
0:04:57 > 0:04:58- Miss Cackle's in trouble.- No!
0:04:58 > 0:05:00What kind of trouble?
0:05:00 > 0:05:01She could lose her job kind of trouble.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03She needs our support.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05- Are you coming?- Where to?
0:05:05 > 0:05:07Magic Council.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10We can't. We've got HB for Potions first thing.
0:05:17 > 0:05:21I'm really not used to getting up so early, Miss Hardbroom.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23Miss Bat will be covering my potions class this morning.
0:05:23 > 0:05:27Do not, however, use this as an excuse to mess around.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30Do not take any nonsense from the girls, Miss Bat.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33SNORING
0:05:33 > 0:05:36Miss Bat?
0:05:43 > 0:05:45It's important to keep awake, Miss Bat.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48- WHISPERS:- Today of all days.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06OK girls, Potions class.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09WHISPERS: This is our chance.
0:06:16 > 0:06:20Hey! Miss Bat? Miss Bat!
0:06:29 > 0:06:30Rise.
0:06:30 > 0:06:31Rise.
0:06:31 > 0:06:33Rise.
0:06:33 > 0:06:34Rise!
0:06:34 > 0:06:36Rise.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38Speak firmly to it, Sybil.
0:06:40 > 0:06:41Rise!
0:06:43 > 0:06:46I don't think I need to remind you, Miss Drill, that our visitor
0:06:46 > 0:06:49will be assessing the girls on their Broomstick Attainment Tests.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52I can assure you they are all up to speed on their BATs, Miss Hardbroom.
0:06:52 > 0:06:54Rise!
0:06:54 > 0:06:57For everyone's sake, I hope so.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00Stop daydreaming, Beatrice Bunch!
0:07:00 > 0:07:02You look as if you're catching flies.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07Come on, Sybil.
0:07:07 > 0:07:08Rise!
0:07:17 > 0:07:18What is going on in here?
0:07:19 > 0:07:23- Where is Miss Bat? - We don't know, Miss Hardbroom.
0:07:23 > 0:07:25Unbelievable.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28Open your books. Page 25.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30I want you to make a simple colour-changing potion.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32Miss Drill, a word?
0:07:33 > 0:07:35Get on with your potions.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40Find Ethel Hallow and send her to me.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43We need our star pupil on show the moment Miss Doomstone arrives.
0:07:43 > 0:07:44I'm on it.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55- Something's going on.- I know.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57HB seems really jumpy today.
0:08:01 > 0:08:05For goodness' sake, Sybil Hallow, what are you doing?!
0:08:05 > 0:08:09I put foxbane in instead of nightshade.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12Your brilliant sister loses all her powers
0:08:12 > 0:08:16and you don't have the faintest idea what to do with yours!
0:08:16 > 0:08:20You are a disgrace to the name of Hallow.
0:08:21 > 0:08:24I'm sorry, it was an accident.
0:08:28 > 0:08:32Excuse me, Miss Hardbroom, I really don't think that's fair.
0:08:35 > 0:08:41Did I ask you to speak, Beatrice Bunch?
0:08:41 > 0:08:42No, Miss Hardbroom.
0:08:42 > 0:08:43Then don't.
0:08:45 > 0:08:46Start again!
0:08:53 > 0:08:55HB's a total monster.
0:08:55 > 0:09:01Never mind a colour-changing potion, we need a personality-changing one.
0:09:01 > 0:09:05Something like this, you mean?
0:09:11 > 0:09:17"Personality changing potion - for reversing personality traits.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20"Makes the timid person brave, the sad person happy
0:09:20 > 0:09:25"and the hard-hearted soft as a marshmallow." Oh, yes!
0:09:29 > 0:09:30Somebody's coming!
0:09:35 > 0:09:37Aperi Portum.
0:09:51 > 0:09:52Aperi Portum.
0:10:02 > 0:10:06It is with a heavy heart that I have called you all here today
0:10:06 > 0:10:10to this disciplinary hearing of Miss Cackle.
0:10:10 > 0:10:14Now, I'm sorry it's come to this, but let us begin.
0:10:16 > 0:10:20I believe there was a fire in a girl's bedroom,
0:10:20 > 0:10:25and a whole wing of the school fell down at the beginning of term.
0:10:25 > 0:10:28And then, of course, there's the whole matter of one of the students
0:10:28 > 0:10:34losing her powers whilst under Miss Cackle's pastoral care.
0:10:34 > 0:10:37Mrs Hallow, I believe you have something to say
0:10:37 > 0:10:40- about your daughter's condition. - I do indeed.
0:10:40 > 0:10:41What a traitor!
0:10:45 > 0:10:50OK, this is where Miss Hardbroom becomes Miss Softbroom.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54Beatrice, this is a bad idea. Don't do it.
0:10:59 > 0:11:02Miss Hardbroom, my colour-changing potion's ready.
0:11:17 > 0:11:19Nothing appears to be happening.
0:11:19 > 0:11:23Yes, Beatrice. Nothing's happening.
0:11:23 > 0:11:25Tell you what, Miss Hardbroom.
0:11:25 > 0:11:28Why don't we forget about potion class for today
0:11:28 > 0:11:31and do something fun instead?
0:11:31 > 0:11:34What did you say?!
0:11:34 > 0:11:36I said...
0:11:36 > 0:11:37Erm...
0:11:40 > 0:11:42Fun?!
0:11:42 > 0:11:47MISS HARDBROOM LAUGHS
0:11:50 > 0:11:52Yes!
0:11:52 > 0:11:55Lessons should be fun.
0:11:57 > 0:12:02Why not?
0:12:02 > 0:12:04THEY LAUGH
0:12:06 > 0:12:07Woo!
0:12:11 > 0:12:14- KNOCK ON DOOR - Miss Hardbroom?- Yes?
0:12:16 > 0:12:18Miss Drill said you wanted to see me.
0:12:19 > 0:12:21Did she?
0:12:21 > 0:12:25Is it to do with Mildred, Maud and Enid? They've disappeared.
0:12:25 > 0:12:29Did they make an invisibility potion?
0:12:29 > 0:12:32No. They've left the school premises.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35For good? That's...
0:12:36 > 0:12:39..three less to teach, then.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42Did you lot make a laughter potion?
0:12:42 > 0:12:43Kind of.
0:12:44 > 0:12:47Maybe we'll go and talk to Miss Drill again.
0:12:47 > 0:12:48Perhaps she'll remember.
0:12:58 > 0:13:01What happened to Esmeralda is a tragedy,
0:13:01 > 0:13:05and I lay the blame entirely at Miss Cackle's feet.
0:13:05 > 0:13:09When we send our children to school, we expect them to be safe.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12But it was Agatha who did it, not Miss Cackle.
0:13:12 > 0:13:15Indeed, and that is why I've arranged a school inspection visit
0:13:15 > 0:13:17- for today.- An inspection?
0:13:17 > 0:13:21Perhaps you'd already left before Miss Doomstone called.
0:13:21 > 0:13:25You are sending Doomstone the Destroyer to inspect my school?
0:13:25 > 0:13:27Miss Cackle, remember where you are.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31# Five little speckled frogs
0:13:31 > 0:13:34# Sat on a speckled log
0:13:34 > 0:13:37# Eating some most delicious bugs... #
0:13:37 > 0:13:38Yum, yum!
0:13:38 > 0:13:41We're going to be in so much trouble when HB finds out.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43Relax, Sybil. This is fun.
0:13:43 > 0:13:45Define fun.
0:13:45 > 0:13:46# Then there were four speckled frogs. #
0:13:46 > 0:13:51Miss Hardbroom! Can class be dismissed early for once?
0:13:51 > 0:13:56- Yes, why not? Good idea.- Yes!
0:13:58 > 0:14:01She didn't seem interested, did she, Felicity?
0:14:01 > 0:14:04- No.- Quietly, girls!
0:14:04 > 0:14:06She seemed very distracted.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09Oh! Aren't we all, with this inspection looming?
0:14:09 > 0:14:11What inspection?
0:14:11 > 0:14:13Well, that's what she wanted to see you about, Ethel.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15She wants you to help show the inspector around.
0:14:15 > 0:14:16Ah, Miss Hardbroom.
0:14:16 > 0:14:18Agh! Miss Drill.
0:14:18 > 0:14:21I don't want to hear any talk about work today.
0:14:21 > 0:14:25The girls are right, we all need to take time to smell the roses.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32What roses? She never asked me to get any roses.
0:14:32 > 0:14:34Something's happened to Miss Hardbroom.
0:14:34 > 0:14:36Oh, my giddy bats.
0:14:36 > 0:14:39And I know who's to blame.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41What have you three done to Miss Hardbroom?
0:14:41 > 0:14:45Erm...why do you think we've done anything?
0:14:45 > 0:14:46Tell me now.
0:14:46 > 0:14:49The future of the entire school depends on it.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52The inspector's arrived early! She's in the entrance hall.
0:14:52 > 0:14:54No!
0:14:54 > 0:14:55Shall I stall her, Miss Drill?
0:14:55 > 0:14:57Yes, get her out of the building, Ethel.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59What is it? What's wrong?
0:15:00 > 0:15:02All right, you three - spill.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13CHILDREN CHATTER
0:15:13 > 0:15:15Ah. Erm. Eh... Ooh!
0:15:15 > 0:15:17How wonderfully exuberant!
0:15:17 > 0:15:21Er, girls, can anyone tell me where I might find Miss...
0:15:22 > 0:15:24- ..Hardbroom? - FOOTSTEPS APPROACH
0:15:26 > 0:15:30Well met, Miss Doomstone. I'm Ethel Hallow.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32Would you like to follow me?
0:15:32 > 0:15:33Finally!
0:15:35 > 0:15:38And I am disappointed at Mrs Hallow's negativity.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41I cannot help but question her motives.
0:15:42 > 0:15:46The fact that she has sent all three of her daughters to my school
0:15:46 > 0:15:49shows a degree of trust in Cackle's Academy.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51You have lost any trust that you had, Miss Cackle,
0:15:51 > 0:15:54and not just with me
0:15:54 > 0:15:56but with the majority of the parents.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59I have a petition here,
0:15:59 > 0:16:03signed by 80% of the parents,
0:16:03 > 0:16:08demanding Miss Cackle be removed from this school.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15- May I see it?- Ah.
0:16:33 > 0:16:35Thank you.
0:16:36 > 0:16:39Do you have anything to say in your defence?
0:16:41 > 0:16:43Taken at face value,
0:16:43 > 0:16:45all the accusations are true.
0:16:46 > 0:16:51Your greatness, I will take full and personal responsibility,
0:16:51 > 0:16:55but I beg you to keep the academy open.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04Are you sure you haven't been drinking witches' brew,
0:17:04 > 0:17:05Miss Hardbroom?
0:17:05 > 0:17:09Miss Hardbroom, you have to come with me to the potions lab -
0:17:09 > 0:17:11immediately.
0:17:13 > 0:17:16- Why? - Because the inspector has arrived
0:17:16 > 0:17:18and she can't see you like this.
0:17:18 > 0:17:21Doomstone the Destroyer is here?
0:17:21 > 0:17:26The inspection visit. Of course. I wonder if she likes roses.
0:17:26 > 0:17:28- I'll go and see her. - No, Miss Hardbroom,
0:17:28 > 0:17:30that's not a very good...
0:17:30 > 0:17:33Miss Mould, bring Miss Bat and the rest of the staff up to speed.
0:17:33 > 0:17:37Felicity, let the rest of the girls know about the inspection.
0:17:37 > 0:17:40And you - find an antidote sharpish!
0:17:41 > 0:17:43I need to find Miss Hardbroom.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47I will bear what you have to say in mind.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50Now, if you have nothing else to say, I suggest...
0:17:50 > 0:17:51Wait!
0:17:51 > 0:17:53We have something to say.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59Mildred Hubble.
0:17:59 > 0:18:00You girls should be in school!
0:18:00 > 0:18:04You see? This is a perfect example of what I've been talking about.
0:18:04 > 0:18:06What are you girls doing here?
0:18:06 > 0:18:09We are here as character witnesses for you, Miss Cackle.
0:18:11 > 0:18:13Please let us speak.
0:18:16 > 0:18:18And this is the witch ball court.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21We have an excellent team and, although I don't like to brag,
0:18:21 > 0:18:24- I'm one of the star players. - SHE CHUCKLES
0:18:24 > 0:18:26Why exactly are we outside, my dear?
0:18:26 > 0:18:27Erm...
0:18:27 > 0:18:30we're doing the exterior tour first.
0:18:30 > 0:18:31Before the rain sets in.
0:18:31 > 0:18:33It isn't forecast to rain.
0:18:33 > 0:18:35Now this way to the herb garden.
0:18:35 > 0:18:39We have a marvellous display of rosemary, basil and thyme.
0:18:39 > 0:18:42You're wasting my time, Miss Hallow.
0:18:42 > 0:18:43Take me to Miss Hardbroom.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45But...
0:18:45 > 0:18:47..you haven't seen the family trees yet, either.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50And Miss Hardbroom expressly told me to...
0:18:50 > 0:18:54I smell a big fat rat, Miss Hallow.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57That's probably the manure that Mr Rowan Webb puts on his roses.
0:18:57 > 0:18:59Oh!
0:18:59 > 0:19:00Now, Miss Hallow!
0:19:03 > 0:19:05Miss Doomstone, wait!
0:19:07 > 0:19:10Everything Miss Cackle ever does is based on what is
0:19:10 > 0:19:13best for the school and the girls.
0:19:13 > 0:19:17She doesn't tick boxes and suck up to committees and Magic Councils.
0:19:17 > 0:19:22She gets on with the job and teaches us girls how to fly.
0:19:22 > 0:19:24And I don't mean on a broomstick, either.
0:19:26 > 0:19:28Miss Cackle takes risks.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30My point exactly.
0:19:30 > 0:19:34But not on health and safety, as suggested today.
0:19:34 > 0:19:35On people.
0:19:38 > 0:19:41She took a risk on me, and I will always be grateful for that.
0:19:44 > 0:19:46Please don't take her from us.
0:19:46 > 0:19:49She's our role model, and we love her.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51Don't you want to see the family trees?
0:19:51 > 0:19:53No, I want to see Miss Hardbroom.
0:19:54 > 0:19:56S... Oh!
0:19:56 > 0:19:58Where is she?
0:19:58 > 0:20:00Come with me! HARDBROOM SQUEALS
0:20:09 > 0:20:12HARDBROOM HUMS Jimsonweed.
0:20:12 > 0:20:14A ladle of frog gloop.
0:20:14 > 0:20:15A ladle of frog gloop.
0:20:18 > 0:20:20- Ah, here.- Quickly, Sybil.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26A ladle of frog gloop.
0:20:29 > 0:20:30Ugh!
0:20:30 > 0:20:33And finally, a spoonful
0:20:33 > 0:20:36of the original personality-changing potion.
0:20:38 > 0:20:40- It's going a different colour.- Mm.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42Green for the original, red for the antidote.
0:20:42 > 0:20:46OK, let me strain this, and then we'll give it to Miss Hardbroom.
0:20:51 > 0:20:52We couldn't stall her any longer.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54She's on her way here with Miss Bat.
0:20:54 > 0:20:57SHE GROANS Quickly, quickly!
0:20:57 > 0:20:58Come and drink this, Miss Hardbroom.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02You give it to her, Clarice.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05- Help me tidy up, Ethel. - Miss Hardbroom, drink this!
0:21:05 > 0:21:07What are you trying to hide from me?
0:21:07 > 0:21:11I know you, Miss Batty, from days of old.
0:21:11 > 0:21:12It's Bat.
0:21:12 > 0:21:13You know it's Bat!
0:21:15 > 0:21:18I'll not taste it! It smells disgusting.
0:21:18 > 0:21:20- Miss Hardbroom!- No!
0:21:20 > 0:21:21No!
0:21:21 > 0:21:24- How about this one instead?- Oh...
0:21:24 > 0:21:25No!
0:21:29 > 0:21:34- Well met, Miss Doomstone. - Miss Hardbroom?!
0:21:34 > 0:21:37What's been going on in here?
0:21:37 > 0:21:40We've been having fun in class.
0:21:40 > 0:21:41Fun?!
0:21:41 > 0:21:44A school isn't a place to have fun, Miss Ha...argh...broom!
0:21:44 > 0:21:47- SHE SNIGGERS - Oh, my hat!
0:21:47 > 0:21:50- Frog gloop. - Miss Doomstone, are you all right?
0:21:53 > 0:21:56This school is finished.
0:22:05 > 0:22:08After what Mildred said, there's no way they're getting rid of you.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11You spoke very well, Mildred.
0:22:11 > 0:22:13I wonder how they're getting on with the inspection.
0:22:13 > 0:22:15I'm sure with Miss Hardbroom in charge
0:22:15 > 0:22:17everything will be going swimmingly.
0:22:18 > 0:22:20You can't go yet.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22You haven't seen the whole school.
0:22:22 > 0:22:25- Or my A* projects.- I've seen quite enough, thank you very much.
0:22:25 > 0:22:28- But, Miss Doomstone... - Don't touch me!
0:22:28 > 0:22:30SHE CHOKES
0:22:30 > 0:22:33- Oh, no, frog gloop!- Frog...
0:22:33 > 0:22:34Is she OK...?
0:22:34 > 0:22:36Frog in throat!
0:22:36 > 0:22:37Somebody do something!
0:22:42 > 0:22:43Well done, Ethel.
0:22:44 > 0:22:47Here, drink this.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49- Oh...- Stop! Miss Doomstone...no!
0:22:53 > 0:22:55Better?
0:22:55 > 0:22:58- MISS HARDBROOM SIGHS - That was close.
0:23:00 > 0:23:03Cheers, Ethel. Job well done.
0:23:03 > 0:23:05Is that what I think it is?
0:23:06 > 0:23:07Yeah.
0:23:17 > 0:23:19How are you feeling, Miss Doomstone?
0:23:20 > 0:23:23Absolutely marvellous.
0:23:23 > 0:23:24You people have saved my life.
0:23:24 > 0:23:27I shall be eternally grateful.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30What are you girls gawping at?
0:23:30 > 0:23:33Take these back to where they came from.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38Welcome back, Miss Hardbroom.
0:23:38 > 0:23:39I haven't been away.
0:23:42 > 0:23:43Have I?
0:23:57 > 0:24:00Miss Cackle, the council have made their decision.
0:24:00 > 0:24:01Would you take your place, please?
0:24:12 > 0:24:15What an absolutely charming school.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17Such well-mannered, responsible girls
0:24:17 > 0:24:20and a most dedicated teaching staff.
0:24:20 > 0:24:23I've had a wonderful time.
0:24:23 > 0:24:26Well, apart from almost choking to death on a frog, that is.
0:24:26 > 0:24:28SHE CHUCKLES
0:24:31 > 0:24:34Don't worry. I won't tell.
0:24:34 > 0:24:37In fact, I probably shouldn't mention this, but I've already
0:24:37 > 0:24:41reported back to the Magic Council to let them know my decision.
0:24:41 > 0:24:42Which...is?
0:24:45 > 0:24:48The school is to remain open!
0:24:48 > 0:24:50DOOMSTONE CHUCKLES
0:24:54 > 0:24:56Toodle-pip. Well done.
0:25:00 > 0:25:02Why was everyone so scared of her?
0:25:02 > 0:25:05She seemed perfectly pleasant.
0:25:05 > 0:25:07- GIRLS GIGGLE - I did it.
0:25:07 > 0:25:10I saved the school.
0:25:16 > 0:25:20Miss Drill, shouldn't we have given Miss Doomstone the antidote?
0:25:20 > 0:25:21Don't worry.
0:25:21 > 0:25:23The potion will wear off eventually.
0:25:23 > 0:25:26Over the next six months or so.
0:25:26 > 0:25:27Six months?!
0:25:29 > 0:25:31Does Miss Hardbroom know what happened today?
0:25:31 > 0:25:33She can't remember you giving her the potion,
0:25:33 > 0:25:36if that's what you mean.
0:25:36 > 0:25:37Will you tell her?
0:25:39 > 0:25:40No.
0:25:40 > 0:25:43- Thank you.- You won't be thanking me
0:25:43 > 0:25:45when you've spent a whole day cleaning out the sports cupboard.
0:26:03 > 0:26:07I think some of the Softbroom potion must have worn off on HB.
0:26:07 > 0:26:09She almost smiled just then.
0:26:09 > 0:26:12Or maybe, compared to someone like Miss Doomstone,
0:26:12 > 0:26:14she's really not that bad after all.
0:26:23 > 0:26:25Well met, everybody.
0:26:45 > 0:26:48I don't know what you all did to charm Miss Doomstone today
0:26:48 > 0:26:51but, whatever it was, you did a very good job.
0:26:52 > 0:26:54She gave the school a glowing report.
0:26:57 > 0:26:59So...why the long faces?
0:27:01 > 0:27:03What is it, Ada?
0:27:08 > 0:27:10I am no longer your headmistress.
0:27:10 > 0:27:12GASPS AND MURMURS No!
0:27:14 > 0:27:17The council have decreed that a new headteacher be appointed to
0:27:17 > 0:27:18this school.
0:27:19 > 0:27:23I will be leaving at the end of term, and Miss Hardbroom will
0:27:23 > 0:27:27continue as acting head until a replacement can be found.
0:27:34 > 0:27:36- Miss Pentangle!- What do you think she's doing here?
0:27:36 > 0:27:38A super head?
0:27:38 > 0:27:41It just means I'd be headteacher of both schools.
0:27:41 > 0:27:43Mum says Miss Cackle IS the school.
0:27:43 > 0:27:45Without her, they don't see the point of me staying.
0:27:45 > 0:27:47We could all end up at different schools.
0:27:47 > 0:27:49I need to think of a way to prove
0:27:49 > 0:27:50Miss Cackle should still be headteacher.
0:27:50 > 0:27:51No, put it out!
0:27:51 > 0:27:54Maybe there's still a way to change the Great Wizard's mind.
