Hoo, hoo, hoo, ha, ha! As soon as I so much as glance at this show I'm in hysterics - IT IS SO FUNNY!!! Horrid Henry (aged about 12) has got the most hilarious and horrid voice that's, if I'm to tell a lie, so, so soothing and done by a WOMAN (Lizzie Waterworth). The things he gets up to are unbelievable and so bad they're fabulous. I know he's nasty to his little brother Perfect Peter (aged about 7) and sometimes attacks him but, to be fair to the star, he completely brings it on himself provoking his big brother and being boastful. I don't know why Horrid Henry and Moody Margaret don't see eye to eye! They're so much alike and I think when it suits them they're work quite well together - a gruesome twosome! Despite all his dirty-work to cover up his actions everything always goes wrong for Horrid Henry; The Birthday episode sees him having a party for the BIRDS and no Lazor-Zap, just when he "Gets Rich Quick" by stealing his mother's perfume and his father's tennis racket and selling Peter he ends up buying all of them back and loses the money, when he plays hookie he ends up nursing his sick mother and Peter and keeping the house clean instead of playing computer games. I suppose that's his comeuppance for being horrid! I love it when at the end of an episode his horrid plans fail and he screams "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" - it's so funny!
