Related: About this forumDenmark launches children's TV show about man with giant penis
John Dillermand has an extraordinary penis. So extraordinary, in fact, that it can perform rescue operations, etch murals, hoist a flag and even steal ice-cream from children.
The Danish equivalent of the BBC, DR, has a new animated series aimed at four- to eight-year-olds about John Dillermand, the man with the worlds longest penis who overcomes hardships and challenges with his record-breaking genitals.
Unsurprisingly, the series has provoked debate about what good childrens television should and should not contain.
Since premiering on Saturday, opponents have condemned the idea of a man who cannot control his penis. Is this really the message we want to send to children while we are in the middle of a huge #MeToo wave? wrote the Danish author Anne Lise Marstrand-Jørgensen.

It is indeed reminiscent of another Viz classic - "Buster Gonad and his Unfeasibly Large Testicles"

the Brits were scraping the bottom of the barrel with comics like "Johnny Fartpants" or shows like "Mrs. Brown's Boys."
