Hamsters still Hungry!

Hungry Hamsters, the new CGI cartoon series featuring the voice of Harry Hill, is moving closer, but still a time away, based on the latest production blog:

It’s been at least two years in the making and still we cannot see the dynamic action-packed adventures of this top-secret organization.

To watch the HH dodge the flying bullets as they attempt to settle a love-feud between the infamous guerillla street entertainers, Fabio and Julio Fellini, two downtown New York Occicats.

Then there’s the rescue mission of the astoundingly rare invisible Chameleon. The HH sink to new levels of incompetence as they lose the only known male and female (or is it just impossible to see how many there are?) find them, lose them again, trip over them, lose them again.

And nobody will forget MACLEAN’s freezing cold antics in the snowy Bavarian Alps when the HH try to rescue TATLER’s cousin and a foul-mouthed Macaw (Anodorhynchus bastardo) from a trigger-happy German Count.

Now they are on their latest and most dangerous adventure yet, which is why they cannot finish their programmes for us. They are in middle Europe trying to stop a mad GM scientist from manufacturing some hideous cross-breeds and devastating the environment. Goodness knows, they have enough trouble saving their own skins let alone the planet. Anyway, don’t forget to come back here soon for the very latest instalment.

HHF will keep you updated on developments, but you can also check out the official Hungry Hamsters website for more details.
