It would appear painfully obvious to all but the most inept that Mr Slow would make a terrible race car driver!

In response, Roger drew a small orange man with extraordinarily long arms that could reach anywhere and tickle anyone. From a curved hem to the ultra-lightweight fabric, your new Mr Slow Men’s Running T-Shirt is as ready as you are. Not only is this design made with up to six recycled plastic bottles, but it retains all of the features you’d expect from a premium running t-shirt.

It is the same with movies – I can't stop watching a movie until I get to the end, no matter how boring it happens to be. The books were an instant hit and Roger went on to create many more Mr Men and Little Miss characters which have been delighting children and adults for generations. The rest of the story follows him trying to find a job that doesn't clash with his leisurely nature. The pre-loved books are carefully cleaned and maintained offering a wide variety of general and specialist titles from children's to adults. Robust construction, with flat lock stitching and sublimation print for unrivalled comfort and quality.

It, too, was made into a television series in 1983, which was narrated by John Alderton, who, with Pauline Collins, voiced the Men and Misses, respectively. Not one of the better ones: it's pretty tedious reading it slowly as demanded by the story when all you want to do is observe parental obligations and get the little ratbag tucked into bed asap.
