It has been forty years since Adam Hargreaves asked his father, "What does a tickle look like?" That question inspired Roger Hargreaves to invent Mr. Tickle and all his friends in Mr. Men Land, and those quirky characters have sold millions of copies worldwide since.
The Mr Men is a 70’s Children’s TV cartoon which was based on the Children's books written by Roger Hargreaves. In 1974 the first Mr Men series was broadcast by the BBC and consisted of 13 episodes. It was narrated by Arthur Lowe of Dad's Army fame. The animation was simple (and was reused for certain scenes), but that doesn't distract from the stories or the way they were told, which sucked you into the story. Not only that, the music was really great, ask anyone to hum the tune, I'm sure most people can.
One of the things I liked was the intro for each episode, which starred one of the Mr Men and their name. Some of them are really funny, the Mr Jelly intro is hilarious. A second series was made which consisted of a further 15 episodes. After this, no more Mr Men programmes were made until 1996 (but, as they say, that's another story). During this time Roger Hargreaves still created Mr Men books/stories and even expanded the Mr Men Universe to include Little Misses. He died in 1988 aged 53.
