Product Description

STARRING ARDAL O'HANLON - CONTAINS EPISODES: BABY TALK: Keeping George's alter ego secret from Janet's parents is becoming almost impossible since the new addition to the family. With a visit expected any minute, George is busy teaching the baby superhero antics. Will the truth finally come out? ZERO TOLERANCE: Life at the health centre takes an unexpected turn when a gun wielding lunatic rushes in demanding access to the drugs cabinet. However, it is George rather than Thermoman who is left to save the day. PET RESCUE: George gets the chance to overcome his fear of dogs when he is forced to look after the in-laws family pet. THE OLDER MAN: It's George's 327th birthday and although a spring chicken in Planet Uron terms, life is rapidly taking its toll on his earthly body. PUTTING ON THE WRITS: When Mrs Raven is accidentally pushed over the edge of a multi-storey building it is left to Thermoman to save her from certain death. SHOCK, HORROR!: With baby Ollie ill, the regular visits of a worried Thermoman draws the unwanted attention of a local journalist. After news breaks of Janet's affair with Thermoman, it looks like his true identity is about to be revealed. LITTLE GREEN MAN: When Janet thinks that George is taking her for granted, she is not sure what action to take. Discovering her in a compromising position with the handyman does not work. Will marriage guidance be their only hope? MINE'S A DOUBLE: With George off on a superhero course, Janet is left holding the baby. Life takes a sinister turn, however, when a George clone sent to keep her company decides to impersonate Thermoman and cause some trouble of his own. A LITTLE LEARNING: After being banned from the in-laws' 40th wedding anniversary, George is forced to take some drastic action. A DAY TO REMEMBER: After George accidentally erases his memory, Janet is ecstatic as he turns into a model husband. But domestic bliss is not set to last.

The sequence where George drops off the slightly injured George W. Bush at a hospital when George is summoned to take care of a natural disaster remains one of my favorite Dubya jokes. The hospital decides this man claiming to be president of the U.S. must be a looney. TV reporter queries how they felt when they learned he actually was President. Nurse shrugs: "Well, anyone who'd veto the Kyoto Agreement MUST be a looney..."
Also, the sequence about how the British love horses so much they would never eat them, and George, stranger to earth, points out that even so, they chop them up and feed them to their dogs. Ouch!
The insertion of a stranger into a culture we know too well, allowing such fresh views, is a common feature of great satire. Add total silliness in the finest UK manner and some wonderful performers, and My Hero guarantees a many hours of fun.
