# List of Danger Mouse (1981 TV series) episodes

The following is an episode list for the children's animated television series Danger Mouse. The show is about the title character of the same name (David Jason) and his sidekick Ernest Penfold (Terry Scott) defeating villains who attempt to cause havoc around the planet.
The show was made by Cosgrove Hall Films and first shown on ITV during its weekday lunchtime or afternoon children's programming. 161 episodes were made which were broadcast between 1981 and 1992. Later, VHS and DVD releases edited the 5-part stories together as single episodes, to total 89 episodes. The episode order is controversial because stories were often initially transmitted some years after the rest of the series to which they theoretically belonged, often forming part of a 'repeats series'. The US Region 1 DVD releases present the episodes in the UK broadcast order.

### Series 3 (1982)

The first three stories were originally each aired in five 5-minute segments over five consecutive days. The US DVD releases retain the original 5-min segment format. The fourth and fifth stories were single 11-minute segments and aired on Mondays; some sources (including iTunes UK and The Guinness Book of Classic British TV) list these episodes as belonging to the first series. This would appear to be supported by the fact that these final two episodes have the series 1 credit sequence with its original title card and the same series 1 animation. (The title card was changed to the more familiar logo from series 2 onwards.) According to the production codes, this is still technically series 2.
