Let’s face it, who could forget it if you are of a certain age? Danger Mouse was a kids cartoon great of the 1980s and early 90s running for a total of 90 episodes.
Between himself and his trusty sidekick Penfold they took on the evil villains of the world. They were in every episode repeatedly asked by the head of the Secret Service, Colonel K, to save the world.
They lived and worked underneath Scotland Yard on Baker Street in London of course. They were based inside a typical British red pillar box. Their nemesis and arch-enemies were both Baron Silas Greenback and his worldwide criminal organisation. They always try to achieve world domination by unconventional means such as stealing all the famous buildings, or creating an army giant robots, amongst many other similar plots.
