Calling all loyal members of the Purple Hand Gang, are you ready to rock?! Horrid Henry’s back in style on the Vue big screen, with a fantastically brilliant special compilation of favourite episodes, brand new music videos and all round horrid fun. So pack up your air guitar and come and join Henry and his friends, family (and enemies) for the best and most horrid entertainment ever, tee hee!!
Featuring the best and most horrid of stories, HORRID HENRY AND THE BIG SCREEN sees Henry setting off on a vile vacation (will he ever get rid of old bogey brain next door?), becoming King Henry the Horrible and liking it too much, getting a new titanic TV, becoming a grown up (but not for long) and, can you believe it, trying to go to school! Noooooo! Plus brand new videos and songs; My Song, Born To Be Rude, Wanna Be Me and Too Cool For School. How horrid is that?!!
