2001
Overview
[Brian Cosgrove] I'd drawn Mickey Mouse since I was five years old, but never thought there was much chance to make cartoons in this country, so I trained as a graphic designer and [Mark Hall] as an illustrator. We were at art school in Manchester together until Brian left to do National Service. We really got to know each other when we worked at Granada Television doing title sequences. I produced a pilot film, which became two series of the Magic Ball , with Eric Thompson, Emma's father, writing the scripts. Mark designed the backgrounds, which won awards. He'd work through the night if necessary. Animators often work in pairs to bounce ideas off each other. Brian had a very vivid dreamlife. Chorlton and the Wheelies came from a dream he had about a happiness dragon chasing heads on wheels. Penfold in Dangermouse looked exactly like Brian's brother. I'd pick up gags from my son and his friends, and test things out on the kids.
