Jacob Ley apparently came up with John Dillermand, the eponymous character of his animated children s TV series, when making up bedtime stories to tell his own kids. Dillermand, which roughly translates as penis-man , is “a middle-aged man with a prehensile penis that can extend to the length of several metres,” says the IMDB blurb. That unusual trait, as you can imagine, opens the floodgates to plenty of antics and challenges; as one of the episode’s description reads: “It often gets him in trouble and it can get really embarrassing, but when he stands by the fact that he is different, he can save children, babies and cars and even hoist the flag – with the diller. In fact, he can save the whole world if only he were allowed to.”

Is a show about a man with a comically long penis appropriate for kids?
That’s the question being debated throughout Europe now, as it’s the premise of a new animated show on the Danish network DR.
John Dillermand, the titular protagonist of the claymation show, has a penis two or three times as long as his body.
Diller is Danish slang for “penis,” the Guardian points out, so his name literally translates to John Penis-Man.
“Imagine if you had the world’s longest penis!” reads the show’s description on DR’s website, where 13 episodes are available to stream. “John does. It often gets him in trouble, and it can get really embarrassing, but when he stands by the fact that he is different, he can save children, babies and cars and even hoist the flag with his penis. In fact, he can save the whole world if only he were allowed to.”
