HENRY (Theo Stevenson) is a lazy boy with dreams of pop stardom, who runs rings around his Mum and Dad.
At school, Henry and his mates, known as The Purple Hand Gang, clash with Moody Margaret and pals.
A series of pranks in front of two school inspectors threatens the future of the school and its long-suffering headmistress Miss Oddbod.
So Henry faces the prospect of attending the local private school, where his rebellious behaviour will not be tolerated.
If only Henry and his chums could win the upcoming talent contest and draw attention to the school’s plight.
Sadly rarely has a film title been more fitting than Nick Moore’s misjudged caper based on the character created by award-winning author, Francesca Simon.
Horrendous Henry would be closer to the disappointing truth.
