MR MEN

“Mr Quiet has always spoken few words, but Mr Chatterbox has decided to take him to kiss the Blarney Stone in Ireland in the hope he’ll learn to chat more! Join Mr Men and Little Miss as they visit the Titanic Experience, climb the Giant’s Causeway, go fishing in Galway and enjoy the Kilkenny Arts Festival on their way to Blarney Castle. But will Mr Quiet be granted the gift of the gab when he kisses the famous Blarney Stone?”

That’s the sales blurb synopsis of Mr Men as it undertakes a peculiar adventure here. Alas, no room for drag shows in The George or céilí dancing over homeless people as Adam Hargreaves continues the much loved and lucrative legacy of his father Roger.
