What happens

The Beano Videostars is a direct-to-video animated film based on The Beano, originally released on VHS on 17 October 1994 and also broadcast as a television special on ITV. The video is a sequel to The Beano Video, and features an expanded cast of characters, including Dennis the Menace and Gnasher, Minnie the Minx, the Bash Street Kids, Billy Whizz, the Three Bears, and Ivy the Terrible. It was produced and directed by Terry Ward at Flicks Films Ltd, with voices provided by Susan Sheridan, Kate Robbins, Enn Reitel, Gary Martin and Jonathan Kydd, along with newcomers Alex Patterson, Mark Pickard, Jill Shilling and Nicola Stapleton. Both videos drew high enough ratings and video sales to kick off the 1996-98 TV series Dennis and Gnasher. The video won an award for Best Special in 1995 and a British Animation Award for Children's Choice Special in 1996, and was re-released on DVD 10 years later in 2004. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
