In Series 6, Heggatty would have us believe that the only threat to a witch's bottom worth mentioning is the wandering hand of a troubadour. (See: toad.) Series 7 exposed a further menace to the backsides of the Grey Sisters: witch stick rump.

Witch stick rump - which, by the way, is quite fun to type - is a condition involving splinters in the posterior, as suffered from by witches after broomstick flights. After his encounter with Team 2 of Series 7, the apothecary Rothberry departed to treat a "nasty case" of the ailment among Witch Haven's witches. We should hardly be surprised that he did not speak of it afterwards.
