Wished I could have taken it home with me," she says. "The clothes were different, too. More casual. If you wore hippie clothes in London as they do in Hollywood, they'd think you were crazy. They'd think you were a nutter." "Bedknobs and Broomsticks" co-stars Roddy McDowall, Sam Jaffe, John Ericson and Bruce Forsyth.

Then I wished I was back in England." Roy Snart was born in Middlesex, a suburb of London. When he was three his mother enrolled him in a combination acting school and model agency.

Precocious, he was a hit from the start. On television Roy advertised everything from cereals to supermarkets and quickly established himself as a top child model. But he drew the line at doing a nude scene. "They wanted me to take a flippin' bath with loads of people watching, and some of 'em was girls he explains. ROY STUDIED acting for three years, then quit in favor of fishing, football, horseback riding and woodcraft.

His impish, cheeky look won him the role of Paul in "Bedknobs and Broomsticks." "You must put it in my contract through," he said at the time, "that I'm not taking any flippin' baths," Cindy O'Callaghan was born in London. From the age of nine she wanted to be an actress. Without her parents' knowledge she sent her photograph to an agency and was rewarded with an interview. She was soon appearing in television commercials. On her twelfth birthday she made her stage debut in "Peter Three young English charmers make their American movie bow in Walt Disney Productions' "Bedknobs and Broomsticks."

"Bedknobs and Broomsticks" is about a good witch who shares her magical song-spangled adventures with three children from London. Ian Weighill, 14, Roy Snart, 7, and Cindy O'Callaghan, 13, play the kids. Ian was born near London in Surrey. At 12 he was a somewhat reluctant pupil in a Saturday afternoon drama class. "HE WASN'T VERY interested and split -his afternoons between acting, football, scouting and sailing," Ian 's mother admits.

Eventually Ian dropped out of his weekly class, only to be cast as a schoolboy in a 1969 film version of "David Cooper-field." He enjoyed the experience. When Disney scouts in London. began interviewing youngsters for "Bedknobs and Broomsticks," Ian joined the line. "He was astounded, to say the lest, but secretly excited at being chosen to play Charlie," his mother says. Ian found Hollywood, where he went for the role, different from London.

"THE BUILDINGS were nice but very thin. The walls, I think, were made of paper," he remarks. "The food was posh. You got all sorts of fruit, and they served salad before a meal.
