4110. Mr. Jelly a.k.a. Mister Nervous

Mr. Jelly is the fifteenth book in the Mr. Men series. Mr. Jelly is afraid of everything, such as the snapping of a twig. He often hides under the covers. One day, he finds a tramp sleeping in the woods, whom he is afraid of, until the vagabond teaches him to count to ten whenever he feels nervous. This makes Mr. Jelly a calm fellow and he rarely hides under the covers now. In the 2008 TV series The Mr. Men Show, Mr. Jelly (now renamed Mr. Nervous in both the US and UK broadcasts) has been given an egg-shaped body, purple skin, glasses, a sea green nose (also appears light blue), and black-and-white sneakers, and is depicted as a stereotypical nerd. His catchphrases: "Oh, no no no no no no!" and "This is the end!" In the episode "Food", he says radishes give him uncontrollable flatuence in the US but terrible tummyaches in the UK, he doesn't like beets, and that he likes sprouts as long as they have been firmly washed. Mr. Nervous often goes on wacky adventures when really he's doing something as wacky as he's imagining, (i.e. He imagines he's in a rocket ship, out of gas and about crash when it turns out he's just on a carousel). He lives in a lighthouse with a large searchlight and many locks on the door. In the US and UK Versions, he is voiced by Danny Katiana and Tim Whitnall. Mr. Jelly appears under the titles Monsieur Peureux (French), Monsieur Nerveux (French on the 2008 show), Don Miedica (Spanish), Unser Herr Angsthase (German), Ο Κύριος Φοβητσιάρης (Greek), 겁쟁이씨 (Korean), 緊張先生 (Taiwan), Meneer Doodsbenauwd (Dutch), Senhor Tremilique (Portuguese) and Senhor Nervoso (Portuguese on the 2008 show).
