Irma Prunesquallor


Irma Prunesquallor; drawing by Mervyn Peake Irma Prunesquallor: Fiona Shaw

Doctor Prunesquallor's sister Irma.

"Vain as a child; thin as a stork's leg, and, in her black glasses, as blind as an owl in daylight. She misses her footing on the social ladder at least three times a week, only to start climbing again, wriggling her pelvis the while. She clasps her dead, white hands beneath her chin in the high hope of hiding the flatness of her chest."

Irma Prunesquallor is played by Fiona Shaw in the BBC series
