Julia Jekyll and Harriet Hyde is a children's television programme that first aired on BBC One as part of the channel's CBBC programming strand. The first episode, entitled "Julia's Elixir" aired on the channel on 29 September 1995[1]. The last episode aired on 2 April 1998[2]. There were subsequent repeat showings of the episodes on BBC One from the conclusion of series one in March 1996 through to 20 May 1999. Additional repeats were shown on the CBBC channel throughout late 2002/early 2003.
Plot
Julia Jekyll is the highly-intelligent star pupil of the Rocket Academy, a school for gifted children. She develops a refreshing drink as part of a science project (her 'elixir'), however the school bullies, Sharon and Nicola (known colloquially as the Blister Sisters; also the nieces of the science teacher, Mr Blister), sabotage her project by adding a bottle of hair growth formula to the concoction. While presenting her project to the class, Julia drinks the elixir, and finds herself transformed into a monstrous creature, who she calls 'Harriet Hyde'. Ever since that moment, Julia has found herself unexpectedly transforming into Harriet Hyde at the most inopportune moments.
The series follows Julia's attempts to try and reverse the effects of the tainted elixir, and the various mishaps and adventures that occur as a result of her unexpected changes into Harriet Hyde.
Status
A selection of episodes were uploaded to YouTube in 2013, however the account that uploaded these has since been terminated.
In September 2020, YouTube user JJAHHNetwork uploaded all but one episode of the series to YouTube and archive.org. In addition, one other episode only exists in a partially-complete state. Series 3, episode 8 (titled 'Dear Aunt Aggie') cuts out about one minute before the conclusion, but is otherwise complete.
Series 3, episode 12 (titled 'Which Witch?') is the only episode which is currently lost. The episode aired on 26 March 1998, and the plot revolved around Julia and Harriet being suspected of being witches.[3]
