Mr. Benn The Mechanic

I've been a fan of Mr. Benn probably longer than I've been a fan of robots.
I grew up watching his adventures on TV and was intrigued by the possibility that there actually were shops out there where you could buy adventures as readily as a costume.
Imagine my joy then at coming across a Pippin Annual today at a Vintage Fair in Stockport. Not only does it have 4 great Mr. Benn stories from the magical mind of David McKee but also one sees Mr. Benn take on the role of a Mechanic, and he has to fix a robot.
Mr. Benn and Robots in the same story.
Here's the page in all its glory.
Enjoy.
I did my own Mr. Benn cartoon a few years ago, if you're interested you can see it over on Strange Times.
