The Mystery Cartoon Character Game, ongoing.

Sorry, Pete. I still don't have it. Hopefully, someone out there will figure it out.

I do hope so! It's so embarrassing when no-one guesses correctly!

Yes Sir-E..this is really a hard one. Hard as a Stone.
I bet you'd have to be some sort of wizard to figure
this one out. I guess someone will figure it out by
knight-fall

Thanks straydog for the hints. Just the kick I need. The answer is Sir Ector from The Sword in the Stone.

He adopted Arthur (Wart)
He has high hopes for his biological son.
Is clue 3 referring to Wart?
He's a redhead
He's strict
He uses the demerit system.
At the end, Arthur is crowned king.

Plaudits to straydawg for pointing the ball at the goal, and c0ngratulations, and the point, to saltyboot for heading it in!

Clue 3 refers to Merlin - Sir Ector does not approve of wizards or education, and considers Merlin - or 'Marvin' as he consistently calls him - an interfering old goat. But he fears Merlin's magic, and is not prepared to oppose him.

Clue 5 is a quote - Sir Ector is justifying his regimented routine: "You've got to keep a tight schedule to run a big place like this. Need strict rules, especially for small boys!"

8) Arthur is proud to be made Kay's squire, much to Merlin's disgust!

Over to you, saltyboot...

Thanks peterhale! Now for mine.

In this short, I see a girl I like but I'm not her type.
She seems to prefer white mice, so I cover myself with powder.
Now she digs me and we got married.

This one has me stumped, too. Can't say I saw the short.

Dang, this could almost be Jerry Mouse from the later MGM Tom and Jerry cartoon "Mouse For Sale," but Jerry wasn't powdered to become a white mouse, nor did he marry the lady of the house. Purchased, yes; married, no. One of the few cartoons where Tom Cat comes out on top. Interesting dance step: every sixth step is stomp-on-the-mouse.

The only other time Jerry Mouse turned white was "The Missing Mouse," where shoe white helped him impersonate an experimental lab mouse reported to be highly explosive. That ... didn't end well.

I wanted to post the next clues earlier but had a very busy day. So hear they are.

I got pushed into a cage trap by the in-law.
I couldn't get myself free.
My wife was taken away by her family and they left me their.

I still don't have a single clue. This is a toughie.

Well, I can easily narrow out any Tom and Jerry shorts or Looney Tunes. However, I too have no idea.

OK, here's the last three.

This cartoon has only music.
This is a Chinese short.
It says that I get married in the title.

Just found it. It's the mouse from "The Mouse Gets Married."

Correct emeraldisle!

My clues explains the plot. I will add that the cartoon was produced by Shanghai Animation Film Studio in 1983.

Thanks, Saltyboot. Just saw it on YouTube, and it's a real tearjerker.

Now here are clues I've wanted to post for quite a while:

1. We're one duo mentioned in song by another duo.

2. We enjoy a midnight stroll on the beach.

3. We're selfish when it comes to shellfish.

This sounds like The Walrus and the Carpenter.

Salty, you nailed it again. It certainly is the Walrus and the Carpenter from Alice In Wonderland.

1. They're mentioned in a song sung by Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee.

2. They stroll the beach at midnight.

3. When they meet the oysters, they gorge on them.

So it's your turn again. Great job.

Thanks! Here's mine.

In this short, I'm an exterminator.
I've been hired by the protagonist, but none of my ideas worked.
I always carry a plunger.

Can't think of anyone who matches the clues.

This is Sureshot from "The Pest That Came to Dinner."
