Henrik's was a chain of department stores that had been operating since the 1920s.
By 2005, its owner was Rudi Henrik. (PROSE: Rose [+]Loading...["Rose (novelisation)"])
Name
While the chain was generally known as just Henrik's, (TV: Rose [+]Loading...["Rose (TV story)"], The Runaway Bride [+]Loading...["The Runaway Bride (TV story)"], AUDIO: New Girl [+]Loading...["New Girl (audio story)"], etc.) this appeared to be a shortened version of the longer name Henrik's Department Store. (PROSE: Meet Rose [+]Loading...["Meet Rose (short story)"], The Time Traveller's Almanac [+]Loading...{"chaptname":"Everything Changes","page":"63","chaptnum":"3","1":"The Time Traveller's Almanac (reference book)"}, GAME: The Lonely Assassins [+]Loading...["The Lonely Assassins (video game)"])
Although the chain was seemingly established as Henrik & Son by the time the Central London branch opened in 1928, (PROSE: The Time Traveller's Almanac [+]Loading...["The Time Traveller's Almanac (reference book)"]) posters for the chain in 1925 Soho used the name "Henrik's". (TV: The Giggle [+]Loading...{"timestamp":"00:18:53","1":"The Giggle (TV story)"})
On the chain's website by the 2020s, the company was referred to as Henrik's plc. (GAME: The Lonely Assassins [+]Loading...["The Lonely Assassins (video game)"])
History
- For a detailed history of the London branch, see Henrik's, Central London
In 1925, posters for Henrik's were placed around Soho. The Fourteenth Doctor and Donna Noble passed one such poster after they arrived in Albion Chambers in The Doctor's TARDIS. (TV: The Giggle [+]Loading...{"timestamp":"00:18:53","1":"The Giggle (TV story)"})
The Central London branch was opened in 1928 and located within walking distance of Trafalgar Square. (PROSE: The Time Traveller's Almanac [+]Loading...["The Time Traveller's Almanac (reference book)"]) Six year old Polly Wright and her mother visited Henrik's in 1948. (AUDIO: Lost and Found [+]Loading...["Lost and Found (audio story)"])
Squeak modelled clothes for Henrik's for "a brief stint", before landing a bit part in a soap. (PROSE: At Childhood's End [+]Loading...["At Childhood's End (novel)"])
Prior to 1993, Mandy Litherland worked at Henrik's for one summer. (AUDIO: Auld Lang Syne [+]Loading...["Auld Lang Syne (audio story)"])
While the specifics varied between accounts, Rose Tyler began working at Henrik's in London by the early 2000s. (PROSE: Meet Rose [+]Loading...["Meet Rose (short story)"], Rose [+]Loading...["Rose (novelisation)"]) Not long after, Autons infiltrated its basement; on the night of 4 March 2005, the Ninth Doctor blew the building up to remove the Nestene Consciousness's relay device in the roof. (TV: Rose [+]Loading...["Rose (TV story)"]) Elton Pope had seemingly shopped at the London branch of Henrik's before it was destroyed. (TV: Love & Monsters [+]Loading...["Love & Monsters (TV story)"]) The London branch of Henrik's had either rebuilt or relocated later that year. (AUDIO: New Girl [+]Loading...["New Girl (audio story)"])
In 2007, the chain embarked upon a wide-ranging advertising campaign, with promotional material visible in the street and on the sides of taxis. (TV: The Runaway Bride [+]Loading...["The Runaway Bride (TV story)"]) This advertising was still on view after Sarah Jane encountered the Gorgon around the later 2000s.[nb 1] (TV: Eye of the Gorgon [+]Loading...["Eye of the Gorgon (TV story)"])
In 2013, Henrik's had a store in the Hyperville complex. (PROSE: Autonomy [+]Loading...["Autonomy (novel)"])
In 2017, Gwen Cooper bought a jacket in a sale. (AUDIO: Orr [+]Loading...["Orr (audio story)"])
"Henricks" was a store in the Frenko Bazaar. (COMIC: Bazaar Adventures [+]Loading...["Bazaar Adventures (comic story)",""])
Larry Nightingale ordered a number of items from the Henrik's website on 13 February 2021 for Dazza's birthday party. These items included standard latex balloons, a standard beer keg of Red River's 5.0% Lager, a vintage disco mirror ball, a rose gold birthday banner and an assorted box of silly string. Later, when a human found Larry's phone, they accessed Larry's emails including those from Henrik's about his order as well as the Henrik's website to look at more details about said order.

Footnotes
- ↑ No on screen date is given for the first two series of The Sarah Jane Adventures, outside of The Day of the Clown from the second series being set shortly after 9 October in an undisclosed year. While Donna Noble's present from the fourth series of Doctor Who is set around the same time as the first series of The Sarah Jane Adventures, and The Temptation of Sarah Jane Smith from the second series of The Sarah Jane Adventures is explicitly described as being set a year after Whatever Happened to Sarah Jane? from the first series, Doctor Who's fourth series is not consistently dated, with TV: The Fires of Pompeii, TV: The Waters of Mars, and AUDIO: SOS setting the present of the 13 regular episodes in 2008 (heavily implied by TV: The Star Beast and TV: The Giggle as well), and PROSE: Beautiful Chaos setting them in about April to June 2009.
