Ellie is the Fire Team’s action girl. She is fast, athletic and the fittest member of the Pontypandy Fire Team. Ellie loves nothing more than a physical challenge. If Sam asks the team to shift a pile of hoses, Ellie will always be the one trying to do it the fastest. If the Fire Team are getting a bit flabby, Ellie will be the one trying to get them into shape, even Station Officer Steele would squeeze into a pair of old football shorts to have a fitness session with Ellie.
Ellie is the main leader of the Pontypandy Junior Fire Cadets. Sarah looks up to her, Mandy wants to be her and Norman has a bit of a crush on her. Penny can recognise traits in Ellie that she had when she was a young firefighter. The two of them get on really well and can often be heard exchanging tips about potholing or the best place to buy a good pair of crampons.
Ellie has a great bond with Arnold. They were both at the Firefighter Training Academy together and despite the fact they couldn’t be more opposite, they get on like a house on fire… something they are now both familiar with.
FUN FACTS
Ellie is the current Pontypandy Fitness Challenge champion, holds the record for the fastest climb up Pontypandy Mountain and, together with Penny, won this year’s three-legged Pontypandy Cross Country Cup.
