My Favourite Martians (US title My Favorite Martians) was a 1973 cartoon series from Filmation Associates. It was based on the original live-action series from the 1960s, but only lasted 16 episodes, September to December 1973. In this Uncle Martin (the Martian) has a nephew called Andromeda, whose human name is Andy. This character had appeared in one episode of the original series. I guess the thing that looks like a cerise Old English Sheepdog is also Martian ? His name is Okey. The voice of Uncle Martin was provided by Jonathan Harris - Dr Smith on Lost in Space. I do not think I have ever seen this show, and there is not a lot of information around on it. The Wikipedia entry for My Favorite Martian has a section on the animated show: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Favorite_Martian#Animated_series Your video tape is clearly a British release, given the British spelling of the title, and the BBFC classification.
