For some of you, before Wicked's Elphaba and Glinda entered our consciousness...there was Felicity Jones in the TV series The Worst Witch...the double Oscar nominee's first starring role before spending a decade as Emma Carter in The Archers.

Inherited: Love and Affection by Joan Armatrading Passed on: Pressure Drop by Toots and the Maytals
