That sounds really good, El.
Elvis?
Why are you playing
plang, plang, plangy, plang?
I wasn’t playing
plang, plang, plangy, plang.
I was playing plang, plang, plangy, ching!
Well I never heard a ching.
Did you hear a ching, Sam?
Er. I’m not sure.
Well I’m surprised you could
hear anything over your
dubba, dubba, boof, boof!
Dubba, dubba, boof, boof?
I have never played dubba,
dubba, boof, boof in my life!
You have! You did just then!
Didn’t he, Sam?
Ahh, I, err.
And as for your blam,
blam, blibbidy, blam.
My blam, blam, blibbidy,
blam is my best beat!
And it’s WAY better than
your doodley, doodley
diddley, dee!
Umm, err, Elvis, Mike. Listen.
You two have got a show tonight.
No, we haven’t!
I’m not playing in a band
with someone who doesn’t
like my doodley, doodley, diddley, dee!
And I’m not playing with
someone who doesn’t like my
blam, blam, blibbidy, blam!
But, Mike. But Elvis. You can’t.
We can!
From this day forward, The Elvis
and Mike Two are no more.
I’m breaking up the band!
No, you’re not.
Oh, thank goodness.
I am!
Elvis, maybe you should talk
to Mike about this whole
band thing.
I’ve made up my mind Sam.
Mike will just have to
carry on without me.
But he can’t!
Without you the band will just
be Mike playing the drums!
That’s not my problem!
And anyway, I’ve got a
new hobby now - juggling!
I’m going to do it at the show tonight!
I’ve bought this book.
It shows you exactly how to do it!
Oh err, err, look.
Now, then Cridlington, where’s my cup of-?
Ooof! Tea?
I’m sure you can make
things up with Elvis, dad.
Yes, come on, Mike.
Sorry Helen, it’s time I
moved on and started working
on a new sound.
Right, who’s up first?
My name’s James Jones
and I’m from Pontypandy.
OK James, take it away.
(PLAYS RECORDER)
Elvis wouldn’t have done it like that.
Sorry, James. Next!
♪ I steamed a bream and made a pie ♪
Oh, Elvis would never
have done it like that. Next!
(loud rock)
♪ I am Norman Price! ♪
Next!
Elvis wouldn’t have done it like that...
Dilys: Norman! Pick that up!
Ah, sorry, Maaaaam.
Oh. Next!
Next!
Next!
Elvis wouldn’t have done it like that?
Everything’s looking good, Joe!
Ooh, I hope so, Sam.
Ah, look, Elvis.
There’s Mike.
Why don’t you go and talk to
him about getting the band
back together?
He can come and talk to me if he wants.
Look, Dad.
There’s Elvis.
Why don’t you go and talk to
him about getting the band
back together?
He can come and talk to me if he wants.
Surely you’d enjoy playing
in the band with Mike
more than juggling fruit, Elvis?
Ooo, I’m way beyond fruit now, Sam.
I’m on to chapter nine - vegetables.
I bet Elvis is really upset
that you tried to replace him.
He looks happy enough to me.
Come on, Mike, he’s only human.
That’s the problem!
Elvis is only human.
What I need is a machine!
A guitar machine.
I’m pretty sure they don’t exist, Dad.
Then we’re going to go and invent one.
Come on, Joe.
Oh, what?
OK, Sam.
Watch this!
Oof!
Oof! Oof! Cridlington!
Elvis. I’m not sure juggling
vegetables tonight
is a very good idea.
You’re right, Sam.
Good.
I’m glad you’ve seen sense.
Because here’s what
I’m going to do instead.
Tonight, Firefighter
Cridlington is going to be
juggling on stage with flaming torches.
So it’s time for Operation
Certain Inferno.
Fireman Sam - you’ll be
leading the line here.
Yes, sir.
Firefighter Phillips - I
want you up here on Jupiter,
and Firefighter McKinley -
you’ll be covering from here.
Are we ready?
Fireman Sam, standing by, sir.
Firefighter Phillips, standing by.
Firefighter McKinley, standing by.
Firefighter Morris, standing by.
Wallaby One, standing by.
Well, this is relaxing.
Right. On with the show.
Er. H-Hello Pontypandy!
(APPLAUSE)
Well done, Elvis!
Er, yes, well done, Cridlington.
Always knew you could do it, yes.
Right, all clear everyone.
Back to the station.
Well I just hope that
Mike does as well as me.
Hello, Pontypandy!
I’d like to introduce you to
the new member of my band.
The Strum Master Two Thousand!
(FAST STRUMMING)
♪ There’s a place I know
where people say hello ♪
Your new band member’s not
exactly Elvis, is he, Dad?
He will be!
Turn it all the way up, Joe!
(STRUMMING FASTER)
Oh, dear. Oh, dear. Oh, dear.
Oh no!
Elvis really wouldn’t do it like that!
Dad! You need to stop!
Someone needs to call Fireman Sam!
(BEEPING)
Mike Flood’s guitar machine
has gone out of control
and set the stage on fire.
(ALARM)
Mike Flood’s guitar machine
has gone out of control
and set the stage on fire.
Elvis - you and Ellie go in Jupiter.
Penny - you and Arnold take Venus.
I’ll take Mercury.
(SIRENS)
Ellie! Arnold! You get everyone to safety.
Elvis, make sure the power’s off!
Penny, you help me tackle the blaze!
All: Roger that, Sam!
Power’s off, Sam!
I don’t think the
Strum-Master Two Thousand
will make it to his solo!
Move back everyone!
Yes, you all need to be at
least five point five meters
further back for maximum safety!
All out, Sam!
Yeah! Yay!
Woo hoo!
I’m so sorry my guitar
machine caused a fire, Sam.
Luckily no one was hurt, Mike.
Now, have you two got
something you want to say
to each other?
Both: Let’s get the band back together!
Both: Yay!
Juggling was great but I missed
your dubba, dubba, boof, boof!
And I missed your
plang, plang, plangy, plang.
Wait a minute I never played
plang, plang, plangy, plang.
And I never played
dubba, dubba, boof, boof.
I always played plangy,
plangy, plangy, CHING!
Well, I never heard a ching!
And as for your blam,
blam, blibbidy, blam...
I played blam, blam, blibbidy, BLAM!
