Danger Mouse is a reboot animated television series developed by Brian Cosgrove. It first premiered on 28 September 2015. A reboot of the 1981 television series of the same name,[1] the series centres around Danger Mouse (Alexander Armstrong), the self-proclaimed "World's Greatest Secret Agent", who fights against injustice with his cowardly and clumsy yet loyal sidekick Ernest Penfold (Kevin Eldon). They are employed by the absent-minded but slightly firm Colonel K (Stephen Fry) and usually assisted by the inventions of short-tempered genius Professor Squawkencluck (Shauna Macdonald). With these assets, the duo are able to defeat their adversaries, such as arch-enemy Baron Silas von Greenback (Ed Gaughan).
In April 2016, the series was renewed for a second season. As of April 2019, two series of Danger Mouse have been produced totalling 99 episodes.
