Toonhound - The Adventures of Captain Pugwash (1998)

    An all-new version of John Ryan's classic nautical creation. Steering the ship this
    time has been the firm production hand of Britt Allcroft, of "Teletubbies" mega-
    success. The new shows have been generated on computers at John Cary Studios
    in London, using Animo software - a far cry from the hand-manipulated "caption"
    cut-outs used to make the original shows.

    That said, the look and feel of the series has remained faithful to those original
    captions, the producers merely having fleshed out the depth and movement of the
    characters and the locations they appear in. James Saxon has taken on the voice
    of the Captain now, and it's jolly tricky separating him from Peter Hawkins. The
    memorable "diddly-diddly" theme tune is also present and correct (well really, did
    you actually think this might be dropped?).

    Producer John Cary is an ever-busy chap. He has been working in the animation
    industry for over thirty years, animating, editing, producing and consulting on
    numerous productions, committees and panels....
