Primary
The film is a lighthearted spy parody for children, focusing on comedic adventure and the universal conflict of good versus evil without engaging with specific political ideologies or societal critiques.
This movie features an entirely animal cast, primarily chimpanzees, in a comedic spy parody. Its unique casting choice and lighthearted narrative do not engage with or address human diversity, equity, or inclusion themes, nor does it critique traditional identities.
Secondary
Lancelot Link, Secret Chimp, a children's spy parody from the late 1960s/early 1970s, does not feature any discernible LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The content is entirely devoid of such portrayals, resulting in a net impact of N/A.
The show is a comedic spy parody featuring chimpanzee characters. While the female character Mata Hairi is an active participant in missions, the show's lighthearted and slapstick nature does not include scenes where she physically defeats male opponents through skill, strength, or martial arts in close-quarters combat.
Lancelot Link, Secret Chimp is an original production featuring characters created specifically for the show. There is no prior source material or historical record from which characters were adapted with a different gender.
The show features chimpanzee characters, not human characters. The concept of a 'race swap' as defined, which applies to human racial categories, is not applicable to animal characters.
