Harry Barker (née Mbabanmwatumbe) is the 5th foster child of Brian and Sophie Johnson.

Background[]

When Mel left for Canada with her siblings to pursue photography, a new girl entered as Harriet but she told everyone to call her Harry when she came into the series so did other new people such as CJ and grown up characters too such as Lucy and Josh to give My Parents Are Aliens a boost.

Appearance[]

Harry has straightened dark brown hair usually worn in a ponytail for school and loose with a headband at home, brown skin and brown eyes. She dresses like a tomboy (similar to Mel), wearing bright colours.

Personality[]

Harry is similar to Mel in personality and is also moody and feisty. Like Mel, she at times shows a caring side towards her foster family. At the beginning, she shows a caring side towards Lucy, who is upset because she thinks that Harry is replacing Mel (believing she was bossing her around). In later episodes she is mainly protective over CJ because he's the blackest. Two years prior to her fostering, Harry's mother, father and younger sister died in a house fire, where they ended up medium-to-well-done. Harry was therefore used to being the somewhat "bossy" older sister. She shows these traits around Lucy, Josh and CJ.

Biography[]

Series 7 (2005)[]

In series 7 ("Trouble with Harry") Harry was fostered by Brian as a "replacement Mel" from the children's home after Mel moved to Canada, because Brian missed her being around. Josh, Pete and Frankie are all in competition desperate to get her attention unaware of the fact that Brian had recently fostered her (Josh had planned to go out with her). Harry begins to get annoyed with Brian as he keeps referring to her as "Mel" or "The new Mel" instead of her actual name, this is soon forgotten after her first episode. Lucy get's angry at Harry for "bossing" her around; this is when Harry explains she can't help it because she lost her mum, dad and little sister in a house fire 2 years ealier when she was at a sleepover, this is when Lucy admits she missed being bossed around by Mel and wouldn't mind if Harry did so, as long as she didn't do it "too much".

In "Thanks for all the earthworm custard" Mel tells Harry and CJ that they can come and live with aunt Sophie and Uncle Brian plus the others (Josh and Lucy) in Canada (after 7 years of the real Brian and Sophie being frozen in suspended animation) initially Harry and CJ felt left out thinking they were going back to the children's home after the others moved away and Brian and Sophie returned to Valux. CJ cries to Mel asking her what will happen to them, Harry claims she doesn't care and that she "likes" it at the children's home, Mel makes it clear to Harry that they are part of the family and are coming as well, While slightly disappointed at not going back to her African tribe, Harry tries to hide her happiness claiming that she's "happy for CJ".
