I'm a bit late for the 'I prefer girls' challenge, but alas, here I am nonetheless.

Better late than never, eh?

Has this been done for Hicsqueak yet?

Hecate: I never thought I'd say this out loud, but I miss Pippa

Mildred: well I have good news and bad news

Hecate: What's the good news?

Mildred: the good news is that you won't have to miss her anymore

Hecate: and the bad news?

Mildred, gesturing to a beaming Pippa behind her: she just heard everything you said

Ada and Agatha's Birthscroll

Okay, so I do not know if this has been done before, but I was overstimulated this morning and needed something to focus on and after a lot of puzzling, I believe it took me about three hours I came down to the following.

(it's a lot of reading and I'll try to keep it as clear as possible)

Lets just start off with date and time of birth, from Ada and Agatha.

What I managed to figure out is that the scroll says

Agatha Cackle was born at [time]

Ada Cackle was born at [time]

to Alma Cackle

I'm not sure if the scroll says "on" or "Date" both could be possible, and is followed by "Tuesday/Thursday 27th December 19.."

I will get back to whether it's Tuesday or Thursday in a moment, but first the year.

In s1e10, The Mists of Time, Ethel says "What if I have to spend the next fifty years with you." and Ada and Agatha are in this episode most likely around the age of 11/12. The oldest they could be would be 15 as in s4 Maud has a statement that I cannot quote right now, but to which we can assume that Cackle's has 5 years, in which the 5th is exam year.

If we calculate from 2017 when The first season of the Worst Witch was filmed, does that mean they were born somewhere between 1950 and 1960.

After quick research I found out that only times the 27th of December, in the decade between 1950 and 1960, fell on a Tuesday or Thursday were in 1955 (a Tuesday) and in 1956 (a Thursday).

And then if we assume that Ada and Agatha were in the mists of time Episode 11 years old, they would be 61 in 2017, which comes down that their date of birth is on Thursday, December 27th 1956

This means Ada and Agatha are both Capricorns.

Next I tried to figure out what time Ada and Agatha exactly were born

In the picture, zooming in a little, the first number after Agatha's name seems to be a five.

Okay, so they're born at 5AM (in the U.K they use the 24 hour clock, so if it'd be 5PM the scroll would say 17h)

Then comming to the exact minute.

The numbers aren't quite clear but we know from Agatha's quote "Mother only gave you the school because you're thirteen minutes older" that there must be a gap of 13 minutes. Agatha's numbers are most clear and it looks like 5:04 which would match with Ada's times, which look like 5:17.

(also I just noticed the scroll said "on" before the date)

To figure out what the ohter information was on the scroll I needed another picture.

Out of this picture I could make up that under "Birthscroll" it says "Twin Witches"

Together with the other two pictures used before it looked like underneath that is writen "Black Crow" + something I could not figure out yet.

The first captital letter looks like a D, followed by probably an o

This made me conclude that ithe words after Black Crow is probably Doctoral or Doctorate, something along the lines of that.

Under the Black Crow Doctoral/Doctorate we have a picture and from what I could see, it looks like an Baby/Angel on either a cloud or something else similair. I could not get a clear view on what it was, nor could I find good referentical pictures so this is just a speculation.

Then before we have Agatha and Ada's name, something else is writen. After viewing different pictures and zooming in, I think it says "This certificate states that" or something similair to that, if we look at how much space it occupies on the scroll.

Now we nearly have the entire scroll

At the bottom the scroll states something and I could not figure out what exactly, though after doing enough puzzling I managed to figure out that the scroll says "In Witness Whereof" and further it's unreadable.

The stamp seems to be having two babies in it, and under the stamp there is a autograph, which of my guessing and after doing research to these birthcertificates must be from the register.

---

And then we have the entire scroll

Birth Scroll

Twin Witches

Black Crow Doctoral/Docorate

[picture of the baby/angel]

This certificate states that

Agatha Cackle was born at 5:04

and(?) Ada Cackle was born at 5:17

To Alma Cackle

On Thursday 27th December 1956

In Witness Whereof ....

---

Peculiar I find that only Alma's name is on the scroll. I tired to do my research to this, but I had a throbbing headache when trying to figure this out, so with that research I did not come very far.

I simply concluded that Ada and Agatha's father was already out of picture/had already passed away when the twins were born, but this information could be incorrect, so if anyone knows, please let me know,

---

I dearly hope that this was useful. It's not very logical since that several episodes *after* Miss Cackle's birthday it's halloween.

But I feel like logic misses more often in The Worst Witch series.

Thank you for reading this all.

Some other pictures I used:

The result of one too many coffees and being far too wired to sleep last night.

I could not be the only one who saw that scene – we all know the one – and thought a Moonie must've been in the props/digital effects department for Hecate's staff...

Unless, maybe I was

[perfectlysafeandhealthy]

Ada: So... what would you do if you were in bed with me? Hecate: Depends. Is your bed comfortable? Ada: Yes. Hecate: I'd sleep.

How about two Hecates?

(Plus a bonus softbroom🖤)

Currently working on a little Hecate doodle page so I’m sure there’s bound to be more
