Scooby-Doo! and the Loch Ness Monster

'Scooby-Doo! And The Loch Ness Monster' is the seventh of a series of direct-to-video animated films based upon the Scooby-Doo Saturday morning cartoons. It was released on June 24, 2004, and was produced by Warner Bros. Animation (although Warner Bros. had fully absorbed Hanna-Barbera Cartoons by this time, Hanna-Barbera was still credited as the copyright holder and the movie ended with an H-B logo).

Premise
The team visit Scotland to see Daphne's cousin, Shannon, but their holiday turns into a major mystery when the mythlogical Loch Ness Monster appears and wreaks havoc at Blake Castle. Not only will this affect the lives of the locals but it will destroy the traditional Games that are held at Blake Castle every year. It's up to the gang to solve the mystery and answer that has baffled mankind for years: "Is the Loch Ness Monster real?"

Locations

 * Scotland
 * Blake Castle

Notes/trivia

 * In one of the Perils of Penelope Pitstop cartoons, the title character was menaced by said monster, and in that episode it was 'DEFINITELY' carnivorous, and the gang 'AND' Shannon ALL want the laird of the castle to go have a 'really close encounter' with 'THAT'?? EEWWWW....
 * The Scooby films are now no-longer produced in the retro feel that the previous two films were, and the gang is now voiced by the cast of What's New, Scooby-Doo?.
 * This is also the first to feature the Mystery Inc. gang in the same clothes they wore in What's New, Scooby-Doo?.
 * This is the first feature length Scooby-Doo movie to be set in Scotland, but it is not the first time the gang have been to Scotland, nor is it the first time that the gang have encountered the Loch Ness Monster.
 * It is revealed in this movie that Daphne has Scottish relatives.
 * This movie features the only appearance of Daphne's cousin, Shannon who looks exactly like Daphne only with short hair, grundge clothing and a Scottish accent.
 * Del Chillman returns in Chill Out, Scooby-Doo!.
 * The main monster strongly resembles The Giant Behemoth.
 * Daphne is danger-prone because it runs in the family, a running gag in the old episodes for Daphne to be danger-prone.
 * Fred made up nicknames of: Velma=Mama Bird and Fred=Baby Bird, he did other names like Alpha, Bravo, Charlie and Delta which are possibly for either Shaggy, Scooby and Del.
 * Scholastic Inc. released a novelization of the story in conjunction with the film. The novel was written by American fantasy and science fiction author Suzanne Weyn.
