frog king in Shrek the Third, in which Shrek and Fiona fill in for him and Lillian during his illness, which later turns out to be terminal (the story book The Legend of Shrek and other publications state that the transition from human to frog confused his age and accelerated the aging process). Shrek and Fiona both reject the idea of an ogre and ogress serving as king and a lady-in-waiting, given their inexperience and disastrous attempts to fill in for him. Harold tells Shrek on his deathbed about Fiona's cousin Arthur is next in line for the throne of Far Far Away. Harold dies shortly after telling Shrek and Fiona, and he is never seen nor heard from again. King Harold makes his cameo appearance in Shrek Forever After, in which he appears very briefly in a couple of flashbacks only. In the first, he and Lillian are about to make a deal with Rumpelstiltskin, but they break it off at the last moment, after a royal messenger enters and informs them that Fiona has been saved. In the alternate reality of the second flashback, Harold and Lillian disappear after signing over the kingdom to Rumpelstiltskin. At the end of the film, the original timeline is restored, leaving the current time a year or so after Harold's death (as seen in Shrek the Third). However, there is a large painting of him as a human in which the face moves, possibly indicating that his spirit inhabits the picture. Unlike the previous films, he is never seen in his frog form. Doris Doris (voiced by Larry King in the US version and Jonathan Ross in the UK version of Shrek 2) makes her first appearance in Shrek 2 and returns in Shrek the Third and very briefly in Shrek Forever After. She is based on one of Cinderella's two stepsisters. Unlike the other ugly sisters, she is an ally and best friend to Fiona. She is first seen as an unusually masculine female bartender at the Poison Apple. She is depicted as a tall, independent woman with purple-themed clothes who wears Elizabeth Taylor style makeup. Her character design is intended to invoke the appearance of a drag queen, which is supported with her masculine voice. Doris is first seen in Shrek 2, when King Harold secretly enters the Poison Apple Club, in which she is working as a bartender. She
