Plot
Charlotte Wilson, a tomboy who is always called Charlie, moves to a new town and stumbles upon an open air audition for a new television series. Because of her boyish looks, she is mistaken for a boy and gets a male part in the show, and continues pretending to be a boy in order not to lose the role. Inevitably she is discovered, but she has become too popular to be fired. So the director writes her true gender into the show as a twin sister.

Thank you, Ramon and Lorrsadmin, for information about this story. I have found the reprint in Dutch Tina was #18 (thank you, Last Dodo). Does anyone have Charlotte’s surname?
Her last name is Wilson. The Bunty version of “OH, BOY!” is in black and white.
Thank you, Ronnie.
This may be unimportant, but the title was OH, BOY! instead of Oh, Boy!. The title is in all capital letters. I checked and it was that way in all issues.
Some titles were all in caps, such as “Witch!”, and others were lowercase all the way through.
