Danger Mouse


The Cast

In late 1981, a small animation company in Manchester, England created a spy spoof cartoon about the adventures of a white mouse and his timid assistant. Within a few years that same show was airing world wide. It's one of those odd shows that you either love or have never heard of. Since its airing in 1981 (1984 for the US) it has achieved an almost cult status with fans. Which cartoon might this be? What else but Danger Mouse.

Danger Mouse follows the adventures of a one eyed, white mouse, the sort of James Bond of the rodent world. With his cowardly yet faithful assistant Penfold, Danger Mouse would save the world from a variety of evils, the foremost being a large toad named Baron Silas Greenback. While a spy cartoon, Danger Mouse and Penfold saved the world not so much by using strength or intellect, but with humor. But then, when faced with evil plans that involve exploding cans of custard, giant chickens, and bad luck gems, a touch of humor is a must.

Come into the files and meet some of the characters. Just be careful of Penfold. He frightens easily...

The Main Cast:

Danger Mouse Danger Mouse (Vocals - David Jason)
Despite being a mouse in a human sized world, DM is considered the to be the 'World's Greatest Secret Agent'. While a proper English gentileman..er..mouse, DM has quite a sense of humor. Something that is necessary with an assistant like Penfold.


Penfold Ernest O. Penfold (Vocals - Terry Scott)
A small, nervous hamster, Penfold is DM's faithful and extremely cowardly assistant. He's usually the first to spot trouble and the first to run from it. He seems to have a joke for just about every situation.


Colonel K Colonel K. (Vocals - Edward Kelsey)
The somewhat absent minded head of the Agency. The Colonel never seems to be able to recall the whole phrase "over and out". He usually forgets why he called the team as well.
Greenback Baron Silas Greenback (Vocals - Edward Kelsey)
This toad is Danger Mouse's archenemy. A genius in his own right, he's always just one step behind DM. He's constantly trying to take over the world by the most unusual of means, some of which have been giant chickens and explosive cans of custard. Not to be invited to parties.


Nero Nero (Vocals - David Jason)
Greenback's fluffy pet caterpillar. Talks by making a series of chirps. Don't let his cute looks fool you, Nero's a devious little thing.


Stiletto Stiletto (Vocals - Brian Trueman)
Greenback's none to bright hench-crow. He's not exactly the brightest crayon in the box yet is loyal to the Baron.

A Few of the Others:

Crumbhorn Dr. Eugene Crumbhorn (Vocals - Jimmy Hibbert)
Dr. Eugene Crumbhorn arrived late in the series as another megalomaniac villain. Like Greenback, his plans were a bit unusual. Unlike the toad, Crumbhorn's plans were a lot more devious, more dangerous for DM and Penfold, and came closer to succeeding. He once transformed himself into a young girl named Sweetie-Pie due to some transformation pills.


Narrator Isenbod (Vocals - David Jason)
Isenbod is the talkative, often annoyed narrator of the show. He has a tendency to interrupt the story to give his opinions on the plot, demand a raise, or be reprimanded by the show's director. The characters are all aware of Isenbod and often argue with him.
