The Queen of Matchingham
Another fat pig owned by Sir Gregory Parsloe-Parsloe, the Queen is successor to the Pride of Matchingham, brought in from Kent around the time of Pigs Have Wings. The Queen is a worthy rival to Empress of Blandings, a pig of massive girth and eating power. She is the subject of several kidnappings, stashings and relocations, including a spell in Jerry Vail's kitchen, and finally has her chances of victory in the Shropshire Agricultural Show scuppered thanks to the blunderings of Binstead and several gallons of Slimmo.

“They’re here, though; not a creature failed,
No blossom stayed away
In gentle deference to me,
The Queen of Calvary.
Each one salutes me as he goes,”
