Butler, Karen (22 March 2020). " 'Malory Towers' series to premiere on CBBC April 6". The Guardian . Retrieved 22 March 2020. The term draws to a close. In an emotional ending, Alicia takes June by the shoulders and asks her to carry on and hold the standard high. Startled, June agrees. Unprompted, Felicity makes the same promise to Darrell.

The key character in the series is Darrell. She is a go-getter and does not settle until she does her best. Academically she performs low when she is in the bad company of Alicia. Most of the incidents in the series are viewed from her perspective. Her best friend was Alicia through major part of the first book until she has clashes with her. Sally then becomes her new best friend. Mary-Lou is a quiet, shy girl, described as having "big, scared eyes." However, her courage and character develops as she moves through the school. She forms a threesome of friends with Darrell and Sally before finally finding a friend of her own, Daphne, who appears in the second form. Robin Stevens' Murder Most Unladylikeseries was mentioned a lot, including by @NorfolkELS, who also proposed Maisie Hitchinsby Holly Webb and Anthony Read and Tim Piggott-Smith's Baker Street Irregulars stories. Lizzie Mannering is serious and obsessed with her studies, rooted in a resolve to repay her uncle for her school fees.

Zeralda is an American girl who is into film stars and thinks she can act as well as her screen idol. Bill short for Wilhelmina, who is mad about horses and thinks of nothing else. And Mavis who has a lovely singing voice and is desperate to be an opera singer. Darrell's third term is full of laughter, fun and quite a few surprises. Zerelda Brass is an American girl who joins in Third Year at Malory Towers, who has ambitions to be an actress. The Second Form is more prominent in this book, with Darrell and most of the other Sixth Formers having little to do beyond reacting to Gwen's latest display of selfishness. New girl Suzanne, Mam'zelle Dupont's niece, is developed minimally as a character and serves mainly as a means for Blyton's recurring trope of a French character mispronouncing English words, reminiscent of the more successful Claudine in the earlier St. Clares series.
