Haddock and Sakharine, who is revealed to be the descendant of Red Rackham, replay their ancestors' swashbuckling sword fight, using dockside cranes, swords, and even bottles of whisky. Tintin chases him back to Europe and arranges a police reception for him on the dockside. After a chase down to the harbour, pursued by Tintin and Haddock, Sakharine finally escapes with all three scrolls. Sakharine's plan is to stage a concert involving famous diva Bianca Castafiore (Kim Stengel), the "Milanese nightingale", whose penetrating singing voice will be able to shatter the glass case, allowing Sakharine's trained hawk to fly down and steal the third scroll.

In Canada,the series originally aired on Global,Family Channel and on Radio-Canada in Quebec,with reruns subsequently aired on YTV,Teletoon and its French counterpart,CBC and Teletoon Retro and its French counterpart.The third model ship is in Bagghar, in the possession of the wealthy Omar Ben Salaad (Gad Elmaleh), but it is encased in a bullet-proof glass display case. However,he keeps the bottle in the refrigerator (instead of hiding it in an astronomy book like he did in the book),making it less obvious for young viewers that it is alcohol. Haddock is also seen drinking in "The Calculus Affair" and in "Explorers on the Moon",setting up the scene where he leaves the rocket in a drunken state. In "Tintin and the Picaros",Haddock is the only person taking wine with dinner,foreshadowing the use of Calculus' tablets to cure the drunken Picaros.

In "Tintin in Tibet",Haddock is seen taking a sip from a whiskey flask in order to set up a scene in which Snowy is tempted to lap up some spilled whiskey and subsequently falls over a cliff. "The Crab with the Golden Claws" is the only adventure where Haddock's drunken state is not downplayed. Specifically,Haddock is often seen drinking but not as heavily as in the books. Therefore,international versions of the series had some alterations. However,in many countries where the producers hoped to sell the series,alcoholism was a sensitive issue. While the original books did not promote alcohol,they featured it heavily with much humor based around it and the results of drinking. Haddock's penchant for whiskey posed a problem for audience sensitivities.

On these occasions Tintin had already interacted with these characters in the TV series,as stories were shown in a sequence different from the books. Twice in the series,Tintin is portrayed as knowing various characters already (Thomson and Thompson and Allan in "Cigars of the Pharaoh" and Piotr Skut in "The Red Sea Sharks"),when it was the first time they had met in the book version. Tintin's role was slightly downplayed and he scolded his dog Snowy less often than he did in the books. Some examples of these changes included toning down the high amount of violence,death and the use of firearms in many adventures. Nevertheless,this series was far more faithful to the books than the earlier Hergé's Adventures of Tintin,which was made from 1959 to 1963. It was the first television adaptation of Hergé's books since the Belgian animation company Belvision was responsible for Hergé's Adventures of Tintin twenty years earlier. Philippe Goddin,an expert on Hergé and Tintin,acted as a consultant to the producers.Ĭertain aspects of the stories posed difficulties for the producers,who had to adapt features of the books for a younger audience. The television series was directed by French director Stephen Bernasconi,with Peter Hudecki as the Canadian unit director. Thirty-nine half-hour episodes were produced over the course of its three seasons. The Adventures of Tintin is a 1991-1992 animated TV show co-produced by France and Canada,based on The Adventures of Tintin by Belgian comic artist Georges Prosper Remi,more commonly known by his pen name Hergé.
