BBC One

Mortimer Also is a mouse - 'Family name, yer know. Grand-father called Mortimer; father, Mortimer Too; yours truly-Mortimer Also.' He lives in a hole in Henry Lester's cottage. Henry is a first-class umpire at Lord's Cricket Ground. He's suffering from bad eye-sight and almost hands in his notice, when Mortimer steps in with his plan. Only things don't quite work out as expected.
