Intent on destroying Stella’s career and the company with it, India casts a charm on the whole office.

But there are darker forces at work and things soon get out of hand.E55. Help!Grace (Phoebe Fox) and Gerry’s (Jamie Davis) relationship seems to be blooming nicely. Having just split up with Gerry herself, Jude (Nina Toussaint-White) is feeling weird about this. When she calls Mike (Kevin Bishop) over, she’s looking for some no-strings comfort sex, but she gains so much more. Hannah (Hannah Tointon) takes up tutoring with a little magical twist and gains Tuppence (Lilly Lucia Ainsworth) – a privileged, precocious and pretty lonely pupil. Grace’s anxiety levels reach fever pitch when she becomes convinced that Gerry doesn’t like her as much as she likes him.

But these are the least of their concerns when the Witches of Kensington arrive – with Alexa’s mother, Karina (Diana Kent) in tow. This super-coven is set on bringing the Witches of Camden down. Before the longest night of the year is out, there is a scandalous showdown to survive and some shocking home truths to be shared.
