Penny X Elvis

Romance (season 9-)

**Elvis X Penny** is a romantic ship between Elvis Cridlington and Penny Morris. It is one of the most popular ships in **Fireman Sam**. In the original series, the Penny X Elvis shipping was a romantic relationship. However from series 5-8, it appeared that they had gone back to just friends. Nonetheless, this didn’t stop fans from noticing hints that the two could possibly still be together (especially after series 9, episode 16...!). (forgive my biased self, series 5 has a LOT of moments...)

## Special Moments

### Season 3

* In "**Dilys' Forgetful Day**" Elvis seems shy when he introduces himself to Penny, he also can't seem to stop looking at her. When Penny leaves the fire station, Elvis taps on the window and waves at her, and she says, "bye bye, Elvis." As she drives away in Venus, Elvis looks to the sky and clutches his heart. It is very obvious that he has a crush on her in this episode.

* In "**Halloween**" Elvis seemed very worried for Penny after thinking she had been hurt by the electric tower falling and he even sheds a tear.
* In "**Brass Band**" While the crew are rehearsing, Elvis looks at Penny, Penny then looks at him shyly then gives him a big smile.
* In "**Bentley the Robot**" after hearing that Penny was trapped by the fire, Elvis worries about her and nervously mumbles "oh, Penny!" Once she is rescued by Bentley, the first thing Elvis says is "But what about Penny?"

### Season 5

* In "**Danger Falling Sheep**" While Steele is assembling them for instructions, Elvis can be seen looking at Penny for a brief moment, and she looks back.

However, Penny seems not to believe this and giggles at his response. Despite Elvis saying that he doesn't like toffee apples, he can be seen about to eat one in the next scene before Sarah and James surprise him in their alien costumes.

While putting out the haystack later in the episode Elvis supports Penny by putting his hands on her shoulders whilst she's putting out the fire.
* In "**High Jinx**" When Elvis and Penny are searching for the pontoon, Elvis gets distracted with finding other things and Penny gets annoyed and tells him to stop messing around.

## Trivia

* It is one of the most popular shippings in Fireman Sam.
* It is, so far, the only shipping that is canon (in series 3 & 4).
* It is possible that these two still have feelings for each other, they truly care for one another and Elvis never fails to make Penny laugh.

## Other pairings with Elvis

**Ellie** (Elvis X Ellie)

A ship that has slowly started to become popular among fans. This shipping could possibly have some competition against Penny X Elvis especially as these two have been seen hanging together quite a lot in recent episodes. They appear to have a good relationship.

**Arnold** (Elvis X Arnold)

Although it seemed like Arnold wasn’t fond of Elvis when they first met, these two have become very good friends and get along well as a team.

## Other pairings with Penny

**Sam** (Sam X Penny)

This is definitely the biggest competitor against Penny X Elvis. It's extremely popular, they have a good relationship and have had many moments with each other.

**Ben** (Penny X Ben)

Another very popular Penny shipping. These two appear to have a good relationship, in series 9, Penny took a shine to Ben when she first saw him which immediately birthed the shipping.
