The Perishers: The Complete Series [DVD]

Join Wellington, Marlon, Maisie, and Baby Grumpling - along with their loyal canine companions, BH and Boot - as they navigate the wonders and challenges of childhood. Together, they embark on exciting adventures in their neighbourhood, experiencing life's ups and downs with humour and heart. The Perishers first appeared in British culture as a daily comic strip in The Daily Mirror in 1959, written by Maurice Dodd and illustrated by Dennis Collins. In 1979, the beloved strip was brought to the small screen by FilmFair, the animation company behind British classics such as The Wombles and Paddington. The animated series featured Boot the dog, voiced by the fabulous Leonard Rossiter, whose performance perfectly set the tone for the show. Only 20 episodes were ever produced, originally broadcast on the BBC. Now, for the first time, they have been meticulously restored from the original 35mm film elements and are presented from high definition masters for you to enjoy once again.
