DangerMouse is a British animated television series which was produced by Cosgrove Hall. It features the eponymous DangerMouse, a British secret agent who happens to be a mouse. The show is a loose parody of British spy fiction, particularly James Bond and the Danger Man :down: series starring Patrick McGoohan. The eponymous hero wears a rakish eyepatch and his chest is prominently emblazoned with the initials "DM". This causes problems for those translating the series into other languages, where a literal translation of the words "Danger" and "Mouse" do not share those initials; the Scots Gaelic version, for example, calls the series (and the lead) "Donnie Murdo" (two given names unconnected either with mice or danger). The Slovenian translation omitted the DM initials entirely, however, dubbing Danger Mouse Hrabri mišek ("brave mouse"). DangerMouse was the first British cartoon to break into the American TV market, being shown on Nickelodeon in the 1980s, where it garnered a tremendous fan following that still exists. Since it went off air it has been periodically repeated and been released on DVD. Rumours are circulating about a revival, possibly using CGI. In Australia, it first aired on ABC TV, then in 1996 it was on Network Ten. It was also the first British cartoon to break into Cheez TV, being shown on the weekdays. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/0/0c/Countduckula.jpg I know a bloke who is obsessed with this and also The Prisoner http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/1/18/DangerManDVD.jpg http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/c/c8/Danger-Mouse.jpg
