To celebrate the release of Count Duckula: The Complete Collection on DVD available now, we have the Blu-Ray Boxset to give away to 2 lucky winners!
Count Duckula accompanied by his long-suffering man-servant Igor and his clumsy house-keeper Nanny, uses his teleporting castle to seek his fame and fortune across the world!
Airing between 1988 and 1993 Count Duckula is a spin-off of the Cosgrove Hall classic Danger Mouse (in turn another Cosgrove Hall animation Victor and Hugo was a spin-off of Count Duckula based on villains Gaston and Pierre). Both Danger Mouse and Count Duckula are voiced by David Jason.
Count Duckula was a recurring villain in the Danger Mouse series having once teamed up with Danger Mouse’s arch-enemy Silas Greenback. In the Count Duckula series Duckula is no longer villainous and is now a vegetarian due to his resurrection ritual being conducted with tomato ketchup instead of blood. And he even occasionally wears Danger Mouse branded pyjamas.
Nickelodeon commissioned Count Duckula after Danger Mouse had become a major hit for the channel. A Nickelodeon executive saw a drawing of Duckula from his appearance on Danger Mouse and wanted him to be the star of the new show.
The five main cast members consisting of David Jason, Jack May, Brian Trueman, Jimmy Hibbert and Barry Clayton played most of the guest characters, with many additional female characters being played by Ruby Wax.
