Advantages: Classic kids tv, episodes not too long, it's the Mr Men! Whats not to like?? Disadvantages: Only 13 episodes on a DVD means its not that long
...I really shouldn't be buying Mr Men DVD's but alas, I am. I used to love the series as a kid so was extremely chuffed when I saw it was out on DVD!
I bought the DVD off Amazon for 9.99, it was also available as old/used which was slightly cheaper.
The DVD contains 13 episodes, each a story centering around one character. It's the complete first series and the episodes featured are Mr Happy, Mr Silly, Mr Jelly, Mr Snow, Mr Bounce, Mr Forgetful, ... ...favourite!), Mr Messy, Mr Greedy and Mr Sneeze.
For nostalgia seeking folks like me:
>All your old faves like Mr Happy, Mr Small etc all together once more!
>Have a right laugh at the narration from Mr Dad's Army, "now thats not a goose is it lad......thats a sheep (in dodgy 'farmer' accent)"
>And since it's on DVD, the picture quality is so much better than it probably was when we first saw it!
For all the kiddies:
>Each episode is just long ...
