MR PORTER (retail brother site to Net A Porter) have created a scary-good flashback recreation of the British afternoon cartoon Mr. Benn. For the 'Mericans who perhaps never watched this chap from their granny's sitting room rug at age 6... he is a bank-manager-type suburbanite who would visit his local costume shop and rent various rigs (cowboy gear, spacesuit, chef's whites) and then have adventures. Anyhow, the MR PORTER version ostensibly created to introduce their shopping app but the whole done v well. Real deal Mr. Benn below, and parents, lots more on the tubes.
