Title Character

To those outside the United Kingdom, a confusing aspect of the show is the name of the main character.

It is therefore not the name of the main character, but a label applied to her. The titular character's proper name is Penelope Arbuckle.

    Now that the steam engine rules the world, a title is an absurdity, still I am all dressed up in this title. It will crush me if I do not support it. The title attracts attention to myself.
    Stendhal [Marie Henri Beyle] (1783–1842)
