Lizzie Dripping is a British television children's programme produced by the BBC in 1973 and 1974. It was written by Helen Cresswell and set in the country village of Little Hemlock, where a young girl, Penelope, with a vivid imagination encounters a local witch whom only she can see and hear. This ability is further complicated by Penelope having a reputation for being an imaginative liar, making it even more difficult for her to convince others that her witch is real.
