 DangerMouseDangerMouse is a British animated television series which was produced by Cosgrove Hall Films for Thames Television. It features the eponymous Danger Mouse, a British mouse who works as a secret agent. The show is a loose parody of British spy fiction, particularly James Bond and the Danger Man series starring Patrick McGoohan. Some influence clearly also came from the Sherlock Holmes novels of Sir Arthur Conan-Doyle, as seen in references such as the location of his post box-home (Baker Street) and his attitude to his bumbling, Watson-like assistant Penfold. The show originally ran in the United Kingdom from 1981 to 1992. In the English-language version, the titular hero was voiced by David Jason. |
