The pint-sized Secret Agent Danger Mouse and his wisecracking sidekick Penfold are thrown into mission after mission by the absent-minded Colonel K., where they either battle the dangerous Baron Greenback and his right-arm man Stiletto, or face the maniacal Doctor Augustus P. Crumhorn III, or some other out-worldly threat! D.M. as I fondly refer to him has an arsenal of hi-tech gadgets and an super-fast vehicle that can fly as well as drive over land.
The script for the series was excellent, the action and comedy mixing superbly. Penfold and D.M's one-liners are legendary. We always have those at the end of the cartoon after he completes his mission and talks to Colonel K. about it.
Verdict: Very good for children and general family viewing. I here the complete collection is available to buy on DVD. So what are you waiting for?
