King Rollo is a childrens character created by David McKee in 1979 who featured in a series of books, TV animations narrated by Ray Brooks and a comic strip in the magazines Buttons. This nostalgic DVD featuring all thirteen original episodes of the animation produced in 1980 by McKee's own King Rollo films. The central character of the stories was Rollo himself, a childlike King who was often in need of advice and assistance from his friends. Among these were The Magician (a father figure) Cook (a mother figure, who was arguably the real ruler of the Kingdom); his neighbours, Queen Gwen and King Frank; and perhaps most importantly, King Rollo's cat Hamlet who was generally portrayed as wiser than King Rollo himself.
