The Peculiar Adventures of Hector (2007)

LARSOA has teamed up with Texaco for the launch of ‘Hector’, a road safety character brought to life with the help of triple Oscar winners, Aardman Animations. ‘The Peculiar Adventures of Hector’ DVD has been offered free to customers when they make a fuel purchase at any of Texaco’s (the UK’s largest branded network of independently-owned service stations) 1,100 retail sites from the start of November.


The five animations, along with ‘bloopers’ and ‘the making of Hector’ are available as free downloads at www.hectorshome.com with games and interactive activities. In the site, children can also explore and engage in fun activities based around the themes of road safety.
This cartoon enters the imaginative world of Hector as he embarks across a range of road safety lessons with the help of a colourful cast of animal friends. Offering creative titles such as Hector and the Hairy, Scary Tarantula’s Tentacle, which tells children the importance of using a seatbelt, the films are designed to educate children through entertainment.
