Cast
Making a show about children which spanned more than a decade meant many changes in actors were required, as the child actors became too old for their parts. Overall, three sets of children (the Twists, the Gribbles and Fiona) were cast. Additionally, all of the major adult roles were recast at least once: overall, there were two Tonys, two Nells, three Fays, two Mr Gribbles, and three Matron Gribbles across the series' run.
Before gaining fame in the series Ocean Girl, Marzena Godecki made a cameo appearance in season 2 as the character credited as "Beautiful Girl".
