Prissy Polly (real name Polly Peregrine née Penelope) is Henry and Peter's oldest cousin. She marries Pimply Paul in the episode "Horrid Henry's Wedding", and together, they have one daughter, whose name is Vomiting Vera.
Tamsin Heatley voices her.
Description[]
Polly has medium-length blonde hair, pale skin and rosy cheeks. She wears a pink shirt, light blue bell-bottom jeans held up by a yellow buckle blue belt, a red necklace and pink high heels.
Personality[]
Polly is an emotional, sensitive, spoiled, ditzy, nagging woman who wants everything to be her way all the time and throws it off. She usually appears smiling, giggling hysterically, and isn’t very bright. She acts like a child, though this may be because she is a young adult. Despite her selfish and spoiled ways, she doesn’t mean to be the way she is and is sweet-natured, if not the closest thing to an relentless happy-go-lucky optimist.
In the animated series, she appears to be much more spoiled and childish and a bit meaner than in the books and also has fits of anger, usually around Henry. Polly and Henry both despise each other because of it. Strangely, even when she’s outraged, she appears to be smiling and giggling. When things don't go her way, she would even cry about it.
In Series 1, she treats Henry badly along with Paul, but from Series 2 onwards she treats him a lot better, possibly because she has matured and maybe on cognitive behavioural therapy.
Trivia[]
- In "Horrid Henry Cooks a Meal", it's revealed that Polly is a vegetarian. She rejects Peter's crackers because they're shaped like animals.
- In "Horrid Henry's Wedding", it's revealed that her surname is Penelope, implying that is the rest of Horrid Henry's family surname. She presumably took Paul’s surname, Peregrine, after they married.
- She met Rude Ralph in "Horrid Henry Alone at Home" and found out that he and Henry are friends.
- In "Horrid Henry Delivers The Milk", it's revealed that she hates wasps.
- "Horrid Henry and the Christening Crisis" and "Horrid Henry's Wedding" are the two episodes where she appears crying.
