-I'm paddington bear!

- London's been hit

By another one
of ms. Bird's cold snaps.

Which means it's
time for making snowmen.

Hmm. This one reminds
me of someone...

I know! Mr. Curry.

-Bear!!
-Ah!

It even sounds like him.
-Come over here, bear!

-Oh, it is you, mr. Curry.

-I've caught a nasty
cold in my "dose".

-A cold in your "dose"?

-Not my "dose", my "dnose"!

-Ah, you mean your nose.

-And if that isn't enough,
my system is frozen.

-Your system's frozen,
mr. Curry! Oh dear!

I'd better get mrs. Bird to
send for doctor macandrew.

-I don't want a doctor, bear!

I want mr. James, the plumber!

It's my water pipes that
are frozen solid...

Not my insides.
-Oh.

-Here! Give him my
front door key

And tell him it's an emergency.

He can let himself in.

And tell him not to
make too much noise.

I shall probably
be in bed asleep.

And no hanging
about on the way.

If you're quick I may
even give you ten pence.

-If I had all the ten pences mr. Curry's promised me

Over the years, I'd be rich.

-Curry! I know him
and his little jobs.

He still hasn't paid me for
the last one I did and that
was six months ago!

-It's nice to know
I'm not the only one.

-Tell him from me that before I
do anymore little jobs for him,

I want to see the
colour of his money.

-Oh... I expect he would
show it to you, mr. James,
only he may be asleep.

That wouldn't surprise me.

-He's got a cold you see, and...
-Well... Okay!

I'll lend mr. Curry
these: a blow-lamp

And a do-it-yourself
book on plumbing.

-It's very kind of you,
mr. James, but...

-Tell him I'm all booked up,
so it's take it or leave it.

-Knowing mr. Curry, I think he would rather I'd left it.

On the other hand...

I knew he wouldn't be best
pleased if he woke up

And found his pipes
were still frozen.

"The plumber's mate
by bert stilson.

Everything the amateur
plumber needs to know."

[Pounding]

-It sounds as if mr. Curry
is having trouble
with his plumbing.

-I wouldn't want to
be the unlucky person

Who has to fix those old pipes.

-Mr. James!

Can't you hit those
pipes quietly?

Quiet!!

-Ahem. [Mr. James' voice]:
everything's coming along
fine, mr. Curry.

"One of the best methods
of thawing a frozen pipe

Is pouring boiling water
over rags wrapped around it."

If the pipes are frozen,

Where am I supposed to
get the water to boil?

What's that funny smell?

-Mr. James... What's
that funny smell?
-Ah!

-[Mr. James' voice]: er...
Things are just heating up

In here, mr. Curry.

Hum...

It's funny that mr. Stilson does
his plumbing in warm weather

When pipes would never freeze.

"Heating the pipe is another
effective method."

Fancy leaving it until the last
chapter to tell people that.

Hooray!

-What's going on in there?

[Mr. James, voice]: I think
the water's starting to flow.

"Once the pipes are
thawed, check for leaks."

Checked.

"Tape wrapped tightly
around a small leak

Will serve as a
temporary repair."

-Mr. James?

How's the job coming
along then, eh?

Nearly finished? I'm dying
for a nice hot bath.

[Mr. James' voice]: everything's
just fine, mr. Curry.

-Well I hope you're not
charging me by the hour.

-Nearly finished, mr. Curry.
-Good!

-"Likely trouble
spots are..." Hmm...

This must be where
the water is frozen.

-Ah, the water's
running at last!

Bear?!

Bear! Where's mr. James?

Where's all this water
coming from, bear?

Bear!!!

-Paddington, it's mr.
Curry to see you.

-Ah...

-I just wanted to
thank you, bear.

Here's your ten pence
and a box of cream buns

As a bonus for a job well done.

-Well done?

-Yes! Thanks to you bear,
all the pipes in my bathroom

Are going to be repaired
professionally.

My insurance is paying for it

Because the pipes broke...
During the night.

-You're lucky, mr. Curry, that
you didn't have a clause in
your insurance policy

Saying you weren't covered
for freezing pipes.

-Yes... But in this case it had
nothing to do with a clause.

It was pawsthat did it.
Ha! Ha! Ha!

-Oh?!
-And if I ever need

Another "act of bear",
I'll know where to come.

-Act of bear?!

Well, I never... Ah! Ah! Ah!

- Ahhh!
Don't eat that!

I was just reading about the
recent sighting of the yeti.

The yeti's been sighted!

What is the yeti, mr. Gruber?

-The yeti, which is also called
the abominable snowman,

Is a mythical creature,
mr. Brown.

People claim it lives in
the mountains of tibet.

-Is that why we're going there?

To find the yeti and include
it in your book, the world
and its wonders?

-We're certainly going to
include the story of the yeti,

But I don't hold out
much hope of finding it.

Like big foot and
the loch ness monster,

We are not certain
the yeti even exists.

Tibet however is a land
of infinite fascination.

The himalayas, mr. Brown.

That peak is the world's highest
mountain, mount everest.

Sir edmund hillary was the
first person to climb it.

-Did he see the
yeti, mr.gruber?

-I don't believe so, mr. Brown.

But, here's a photograph
that another explorer took...

Judge for yourself.

-Welcome, mr. Brown.

And welcome to you too
sir. My name is ngapo.

-Pleased to meet you.

-The yeti is half
man, half bear.

His kind have lived
in the mountains for
thousands of years.

Although people fear him,

It is said the yeti has helped

Lost travelers find their way.

-Have you seen the yeti?

-Seeing him is not important.

We believe he exists.

I would be happy to lead
you into the mountains.

With luck, perhaps we
shall see for ourselves.

-Oh!
-We will make an early
start in the morning.

-To see the yeti,

You must keep your eyes

And ears open,
but most important,

Your heart.

-Why don't you try that theory
you read about, mr. Brown,

Of how the yeti footprints
may have been made by a bear?

-How did it work
again, mr. Gruber?

-If you place your hind paw

Partly over the imprint
of your forepaw

You will create a footprint

Positioned in the opposite
direction,

And that ressembles
the yeti footprint.

-I don't think much of the
footprint theory, it must
be hard if you're a yeti

To tell whether you
are coming or going.

-Quite right, mr. Brown.

-We should hurry while
the weather is good.

In the himalayas the weather
can change at he drop of a hat.

-Oh, I'm sorry I dropped
my hat, mr. Gruber.

I didn't mean to make
the weather change.

-I believe that's simply a
figure of speech, mr. Brown.

Where's mr. Brown?

-I'll find the young bear.
You wait here for me.

-Mr. Gruber! Ngapo!

Ah, mr. Gruber!

Mr. Gruber!

-Mr. Brown! Over here!

-Mr. Gruber...

Now both are lost.
I must find them.

-Even though mr. Gruber
was dressed warmly,

It sounded as though
he was getting a cold.

Luckily, mrs. Bird had given me some throat lozenges for the trip.

Here you are, mr. Gruber.

Have some lozenges
for your soar throat.

Mrs. Bird swears by them.

Don't worry, they taste
strong but they do work.

-Mr. Gruber! Mr. Brown!

-We can use this cave as shelter

And ride out the storm.

How clever of you to
lead us here, mr. Brown.

-But I was following you.

[Mr. Grubert caughs.]

Here, mr. Gruber,
have another lozenge.

-Another? But I
haven't had any yet.

-I gave you one when
I was following you.

-I'm afraid high altitudes
can make people lightheaded

And confused, mr. Brown.

-My head feels the same weight
as it did this morning.

-We'd better rest.

We'll have to try and find
ngapo in the morning.

I do hope he's alright.
[Growling]

-You must be hungry, mr. Gruber.

Here. Though I don't think
I've got any bread.

Why, mr. Gruber, you
were really hungry.

Luckily, I have my
emergency sandwich.

[Loud snoring]

It's a good job we're not
staying in a hotel, mr. Gruber.

Your snoring would keep
the other guests awake.

-It's a good job we're not
staying in a hotel, mr. Brown.

Your snoring would keep
the other guests awake.

-Your cold must have
been bothering you

During the night, mr. Gruber.
You were snoring very loudly.

-I'm afraid youmust have been
the one snoring, mr. Brown.

I never snore.

-I think perhaps you may
be the one suffering from
lightheadedness, mr. Gruber.

I never snore either.

-What I'm suffering
from at the moment

Is a light stomach.
I'm very hungry.

-I know. You ate a whole jar
of marmalade during the night.

-I what?

-Mr. Brown? Mr. Gruber?

-Ngapo, thank goodness
you are all right!

How ever did you find us?

-Why I followed mr. Brown's
fake yeti footprints.

-Now that's very clever,
mr. Brown.

Getting up early to make fresh
prints for ngapo to find.

-I didn't make any fresh prints.

-But if youdidn't,

Then... The yeti!

-I know we experienced some
strange goings on last night,

But there must be some
other explanation.

-I don't suppose we shall
ever know for certain.

But it would be nice to
think it was the yeti

Who led us to the cave,
mr. Gruber.

[Growling]
[all]: ah!

And if it was, I hope mrs.
Bird's lozenges help him

Get over that nasty cold.

- You know, aunt lucy,
I wanted very much to be

A guest onlucky for some.

It's a television quiz show.

And with mr. Gruber's help, I finally got my chance.

-Don't misslucky
for some, coming next.

-Hurry up, paddington, your
favourite program is starting.

Lucky for someis right.

I'm missing football
on the other channel.

-And now, it'slucky for
some with your host,

The one and only,

Ronnie playfair!

-Thank you, thank you!

And welcome to lucky for some!

The quizz show that's
lucky for some!

Especially the jackpot winner!

-Do we have to watch this?

-It is paddington's
favourite program,

And he insisted that
we watch it tonight.

-Then where is he?

-So, let's meet our
first contestant,

All the way from
windsor gardens,

Mr. Paddington brown!

Are you sure you're
the right mr. Brown?

-Yes, mr. Playfair. This
is your letter inviting
me to be a contestant.

I live at , windsor gardens,

But I'm originally
from darkest peru.

-Well, we won't expect
you to "peruve" that,

But we will expect
the "bear" facts tonight.

Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!

Anyway, perhaps you would
like to step forward
and send a message

To anyone out
there who knows you...
-Ha! Ha! Maybe this program

Isn't such a load of
rubbish after all.
-If you ask me,

Television will never
be the same again.

-Hello all at number .

I hope I won't be late,
mrs. Bird.

Mr. Gruber promised to bring me straight home and...

-Hey! Watch it!

-You must be more careful
with your marks.

-My marks? But I had a bath
this morning specially.

[The audience laughs.]
Hum?

-No, no, not dirt marks,
I mean the ones you are
suppose to stand on

For the camera position.

-But you asked me
to step forward.

-I said step forward,
not go for a walk!

[Laughter]

Anyway, it's time to play
the game so come this way!

Perhaps he'll need
a box to stand on.

That's better.
Now, for the rules.

You have seconds to answer
each of the questions.

You must answer them correctly
to stay in the game,

Keep your winnings, and go on
to try for the jackpot!

Now, which category
do you choose?

History, geography, mathematics
or general knowledge.

-Hum... Mathematics, please.

Bears are good at sums.

-Mathematics. Okay,

Mathematics it is!

I must warn you,

This may be a trick question...
-Hmm...

-"How many buns make five?"

-Two and a half!

-I'm afraid that's incorrect.
I did warn you

It was a trick question.
[Audience]: ah...

-Fancy getting the
first one wrong!

-That's not like him at all.

He must have something
up his sleeve.

-What you should have answered was "it depends on whether

You are buying or selling."

-But I wasn't doing either. I
share my buns with mr. Gruber,

So we have two and a half each.

-He's right. Young
mr. Brown and I

Share our elevenses
every morning.

[Audience]: give him the money!
-Give him the money!

[Audience]: give him the money!

[The children]: give
him the money!

Give him the money!
-Very well then.

Here's your five pounds.
-Thank you mr. Playfair.

But do you think I could have a bun to be going on with?

Answering questions
makes you very hungry.

-Oh!

Now, do you want to go on?

The questions get harder.
Just one wrong answer,

And you lose all the money
you've already won!

-I'd like to go on please.

-Okay, this is a
two-part question.

If you cut an eight foot
length of wood in half,

Then half again, and then
those pieces in half,

How many pieces would you have?

-Eight.

-Correct! Now, how long

Will each of the pieces be?

-Eight feet.

-Oh what a pity.

The answer of course
is one foot. I thought

That was pretty obvious.
-Not to a bear, it isn't.

I cut mine the other way.

-The other way?
There is no other way!

-If you like,
I'll prove my point.

[Audience]: prove your point!

Prove your point!

[All]: prove your point!
Prove your point!

-This is absurd!!

-You see, if you have paws,
it's much safer to cut
it down the middle.

-There's no need to count it.
It's all there.

Now, do you wish to answer
the final question

Which is worth pounds?

-Oh, yes please, mr. Playfair.

-For pounds...

If it takes men minutes
to fill a -gallon bath

Full of water using one tap,

How long will it take one
man to fill the same bath

Using both taps.

-Why, no time at all!

-I'm afraid you are wrong,
mr. Brown.

The answer is "exactly
half the time."

-Oh I'm afraid you're
wrong, mr. Playfair.

-Nonsense!
[Audience]: prove your point!

Prove your point!

-Very well. Prove your point.

-Would you read the
question again please?

-If it takes men minutes
to fill a -gallon bath
using one tap,

How long will it take one
man to fill the same bath

Using both taps?
-As I said,

No time at all, because
you didn't say

The bath was emptied after it
was filled the first time!
-Ah!

-All right. You win the jackpot!

-The jackpot?! You said
I'd win pounds!

-The jackpot is pounds!

[The children]: jackpot!
Jackpot!

Paddington's won the jackpot!

-Just one more question:

What will you do with
all this money?

-I think I'll keep a little bit as a souvenir,

And use some to buy
christmas presents.

Then I'll give the rest
to the home for retired
bears in lima, peru.

I hope that you and the other bears can put the money to good use, aunt lucy.

I've now found a much
better program to watch.

It's calledprove your point.

And I hope I can
do well on that too.

-Ha! Ha! Ha! Don't we all,
paddington.

Don't we all.
