Georgina Terry (born 1990) is a British actress best known for her role as the title role in the 2003 ITV production of Pollyanna, which is based upon the novel by Eleanor H. Porter. She was twelve years old when she won the role of Pollyanna, after succeeding through five auditions and despite having little professional acting experience.
Pollyanna (2003 ITV Production)
Terry starred alongside Amanda Burton in the television film of Pollyanna. This version of the film is very faithful to the book, with one or two minor differences that do not affect the accuracy of the plot. It uses the original characterizations and storylines, but takes place in the English countryside rather than Vermont (only the scenery and accents show this, and the town is still called Beldingsville). Like the book, it ends with Aunt Polly and Dr. Chilton married and Pollyanna walking, but the scene is the actual wedding with Pollyanna back for a visit rather than a letter as in the book.
