Henry V shows some love on the Battlefield. He is easily identifiable by the big red "K" which floats above him in battle. Also, his head is the same as his arse and he has no legs.

Henry V (Welsh: Hen-ree Vee) (9 August 1386 – disappeared 31 August 1422) was the King of England from 1413 until 1422, when he mysteriously disappeared while planting a potatoes in his back garden. It is a widely held theory that he was abducted by aliens; several sources including the Melton Chronicle ("Reporting All Your Pork-Pie Related News Since 1257") have suggested that King Henry has been seen hanging around in Kempten, Germany. If this is proved true, King Henry would be the current monarch of the United Kingdom, the second time this has happened in history.

Early life[edit]

Henry V was a member of the House of Plantagenet, an exclusive club open only to those with certain types of in-breeding (cousins only). He was born to Henry IV.5 and Lady Margaret "Horesey" Porpoisine in 1386 in a manger in Illingsworth, which is in Scotland. His father had an illustrious career in monarchy, while his mother was a Public Relations officer for a multinational wheat wholesale company.

When Henry was 16, he received his first guitar. He quickly progressed, learning country and rock styles, which gave him his much-vaunted hatred towards Europop. It was while hearing La Verité du Public on Radio I that he was reported to have gone into a rage and killed all the French people in his hometown of Illingsworth, which consisted of a small family living in a thatched bungalow, and three rabbits.

Military career[edit]

Having subscribed to every issue of Bows and Ammo since he was gifted the subscription by his father, Henry IV.5, for his seventeenth birthday, he quickly was made an officer in the British Army. There his tactical genius and his ability to shout loudly earned him much respect and power.

In 1415, Henry led his first invasion of France. Common Knowledge states that the French Army never fights, but always runs away, and he sprung onto that knowledge with cunning, winning the Battle of Agincourt just by turning up. During this battle Henry took prisoners for ransom but when his official calculator checked their actual worth according to the currency exchange rates between the Groat (England) and Ewww! (France), Henry had them killed. Only a very few were retained but the French refused to pay the ransoms so those poor sods all died in the Tower of London.

Later achievements[edit]

~ Elvis Presley on Henry V

Retiring from permanent military service in 1421, Henry took up his musical writing again, vowing never to let another Europop song make it into Radio I's Top XL countdown. He wrote several famous songs, including what would later become covered by Pop Idol winners He'ars'ay. Henry V was known mostly for his sonatas and his world-famous chili.

In 1421, Henry was viciously attacked by Elvis Presley's dogs while walking with his daughter (Henry's daughter, not Elvis's) and remained in hospital for two weeks with fourth degree burns to his right calf. After complications in surgery, the calf died, and its mother, a cow, mourned for four days. The doctors noticed a curious implant in Henry V's neck, which they noticed was "mayde of ye metallick subftance of fome sort".

In 1422, Henry went on Junior Masterchef where he was awarded prizes for his Turnip Stew. It was while starting a crop of potatoes that he mysteriously disappeared from his back garden. Only two faintly charred footprints remained in the grass, and his wife, Catherine of Arrogant, broke down and went insane.
