*THE ADVENTURES OF PADDINGTON*
Season 01 Episode 14
[Paddington] Dear Aunt Lucy,
Episode Title: "Paddington and the Finger Trap" 1 of 2
I always thought a trap
was something you got stuck in.
But I've found out that it can also
be something that sets you free.
Let me start at the beginning.
[Glass breaking]
Oh! Sorry, Mr. Gruber.
[Hungarian accent]
No harm done, Paddington.
[Chuckles] I mean, it was
Neil Armstrong's space helmet,
but no one's hurt,
so, let's tidy up
these less breakable things next.
Hmm.
Oh! [Sniffs]
Whatever is this, Mr. Gruber?
Ooh! That is
a very special item indeed.
A Chinese finger trap.
It's a sort of puzzle that…
Well, let me show you.
- There.
- Oh!
- What now?
- Now you have to get it off.
Hmm.
[Grunting]
[Gasps]
Oh! However do you get it off?
It's actually rather simple
when you know the trick.
Oh! Amazing!
[Chuckles]
And what is the trick, Mr. Gruber?
Well, to tell you
would rather defeat the point.
Why don't you borrow it for a bit?
See if you can work it out.
I would like that very much.
Thank you, Mr. Gruber!
[|whimsical music]
[Mr. Curry] Me, me, me, me, me!
Me, me, me, me, me, me, me!
Unique New York. Unique New York.
Me, me, me… Aaah!
Oh!
- [Clicking]
- Huh?
Bear, what have you done?
It's a Chinese finger trap.
Then take it off at once.
Um. I'm afraid I can't do that.
As I was trying to explain,
it's a sort of puzzle...
Good grief, Bear! Do you mean to say
you have trapped my finger
in an apparatus you have no idea
how to remove?
Oh, I don't know.
Some of those words
were very complicated...
Today of all days!
Right. Let's get this off.
Mr. Gruber said
there's a trick to release it.
- So perhaps if we ask him…
- I don't have time for that!
Besides, I'm a very clever man,
so I'm sure I can work out
this trick, whatever it is.
Oh! Let's go and ask Mr. Gruber.
- [Mr. Curry] Hello?
- [Paddington] Mr. Gruber!
[Mr. Curry]
Hello? Oh, where on Earth is he?
[Paddington] Uh… "Closed for the day."
[Mr. Curry] What?
This is terrible!
Today is such an important day,
and I can't get through it
with just one hand.
Well, I suppose
there's only one thing we can do.
You're right.
We have to break into the shop,
grab that sword
and cut the finger trap off.
That's not what I meant.
And it's also illegal. And dangerous.
I meant, I'll have to be
your other hand for the day.
On audition day?
Audition day?
For the town play!
Every year, I try to get a part
and every year I fail!
This time,
it was supposed to be different.
And now…
Now I can't even prepare!
Oh!
I could help you prepare, Mr. Curry.
Fine. The sooner we get started,
the sooner I can fail,
suck up my disappointment
and start preparing for next year.
Oh! Come on!
- Walk faster.
- Yes, Mr. Curry.
Not that fast. Slow down!
Stitch!
[Painful grunt]
I'm sorry. After you.
- You go first.
- Oh, of course.
Oh!
Oh, just get inside.
- So, what's first?
- Oh!
An actor's body is his instrument,
and thus it must be cared for.
Just as a racing driver
fills his car with petrol,
my instrument
requires a full English.
With sausages,
bacon and all the trimmings.
Mrs. Bird makes those.
She uses a sharp knife,
hot oil and a heavy frying pan, and…
- [Thump]
- [Mr. Curry cries in pain]
[Gasps] Let's go for something simpler.
[Soft music]
- Cereal next.
- Perhaps I can help.
- No.
- Oh, I insist.
- Sorry.
- [sighs]
It was to be expected.
But some actually made it
into the bowl.
Now… milk.
- Ah.
- Careful.
Mr. Curry,
I can open a carton of milk.
Oh! That was actually pretty good.
[Toaster dings]
- Toast!
- No!
[loud crash]
Uh… How about a banana?
Oh!
[Squeaking]
Oh…
There. That wasn't too bad, was it?
Yeah. Not bad, I suppose.
Oh, that won't do.
Let me get that for you.
Hmm. Now, be very diligent.
I take great pride in my nostrils.
[Screaming] Bear!
- [Mr. Curry grunting]
- Almost there.
[Mr. Curry] Aah!
Ow!
There.
Oh, sorry, Mr. Curry. Did that hurt?
It was just a bit of an eye-waterer.
[Mr. Curry] Oh!
- I'm terribly sorry.
- [bell rings]
No. No time for that.
Come on, we're going to be late.
Come on, come on, come on, come on.
[Bell rings]
- [Paddington] Almost there.
- [Mr. Curry] Sorry about that.
I'm not as young as I was.
Looks like we made it just in time.
Ta-dah!
- [Miss Potts] Next!
- Oh!
Tough crowd.
Do we have, uh…
Mr. Curry?
Yes. Ahem. Hello.
- Centre stage, please, Mr. Curry.
- Um…
Is it OK to bring my,
um, lucky charm on with me?
Whatever you need.
Just stand still
and don't say anything.
So, you're back. Hamlet again, is it?
[Delighted] Oh!
Uh, no, actually,
I have spent the entire year
devising my own piece of performance.
A very serious monologue
I have called "Alone."
Oh! Please begin.
[Clears throat]
Alone.
I have spent my entire life alone!
[Chomping]
Ah!
[Swallows]
Oh, sorry, Mr. Curry.
[Sighs]
[Clears throat] Alone!
I have spent my entire life alone!
[Whispering] Get back here.
My sandwich!
Where are you going?
No, no, no, no, no! Come back!
[loud crash]
[Groans] Oh, no!
No! No, no, no, no, no!
Alone!
That was close.
[Wheels squeaking]
Oh, no! Aaah!
[Mr. Curry screams]
[Painful groans]
Alone!
[Mr. Curry] Bear! Get it off!
[Paddington] The painting or the trap?
[Mr. Curry]
Oh, why did I bother believing?
Stop! I've seen enough.
And it was hysterical.
How did you… and Paddington…
and the painting?
Mr. Curry, I can see why it took you
all year to plan it.
I have the perfect part for you both.
Will you be my clowns?
- Oh, Miss Potts, there's been a mistake...
- Shh!
I've waited years
for a part in this play
and I'll take anything I can get!
Thank you, Paddington!
- [Spring clicks open]
- Huh?
[Gasps] We did it!
That's strange.
Or is it?
Do you see, Paddington, the trick
to this trap is quite simple.
The harder you pull apart,
the tighter it becomes.
To release it, you have
to push it closer together.
Which seems like exactly
what you two have done today.
[Paddington] It was true, Aunt Lucy.
Mr. Curry and I
had got closer together.
And that's good,
because when people come together,
they can achieve much greater things.
Love from Paddington.
[Spring clicks shut]
[Chuckles]

Dear Aunt Lucy,
Episode Title: "Paddington Rides a Scooter" 2 of 2
I don't think you should give up
doing something you love
just because you're worried about
what other people might say.
It all started when we went
to the park with our scooters.
[Judy's voice] It was a time of volcanoes,
a time of mighty storms.
And a time in need of a hero.
A hero who could wear…
[loud lightening]
The lucky helmet!
The lucky helmet?
How wonderful!
I certainly feel lucky,
just for putting it on.
It's just a game, Paddington.
You know, pretend.
Oh, yes. Pretend. Of course.
But look!
Super Jonathan's here
to save the world
from the mega-robots!
A massive volcano has just erupted
and, look out, hot lava!
- [Jonathan] Ha, ha!
- [Judy] Woohoo!
Quick, Paddington!
Out of the way! Hot lava!
[Judy] Whoo!
I thought it was just pretend.
- [Judy] Hot lava!
- [Jonathan] Hot lava!
If you say so. Uh… Hot lava!
Hot lava!
[Both] Hot lava!
Hot lava. Hot lava. Hot lava.
[Chuckles] Nice helmet, Paddington.
[Gasps]
Thank you, Mateo. It's a lucky one.
Mateo! Do you want to play with us?
I'm Super Jonathan.
You can be… Mega Mateo!
That sounds awesome, Jonathan.
I used to play made-up games,
pretending to do tricks and stuff,
but that was when I was little.
Now, I'm all about doing real tricks
on the half-pipe.
[Gasps] You must be awfully brave
to go on the half-pipe.
Just the thought of it
makes me rather dizzy.
We don't go on the half-pipe.
We just make up stories
and act them out.
Judy's really good at it. Aren't you?
Um… I… I don't know.
Of course you are! Remember
the one about the robo-sharks?
Or… Oh!
The one about the space unicorn
that fires lasers from his horn!
- [Imitates laser sounds]
- OK, well, have fun.
Um… I think, today, I'll have a go
on the half-pipe with Mateo
and do some, um, real tricks.
OK. So, it's just me and you now,
Paddington.
We'll just have to make up
our own stories.
[Judy] Wow. It… it looks pretty high.
Oh, I've scooted down it
loads of times.
Oh! You go first, then.
OK. We've got to warm up first.
You can't just go straight into it.
Oh! Warm up. Let's do that.
- Right, then. Uh, Jonathan?
- Super Jonathan.
Super Jonathan, yes. Is…? Hmm.
[Gasps]
In a park and the sky is blue
and the sun is shining.
And…
Oh! It is lovely here, isn't it?
Make it more exciting.
Oh! Um…
You're surrounded by… hmm…
Trees!
Massive trees? Huge ones?
- Some of them are quite big, yes.
- Crashing down all around me!
- And… are they on fire?
- Certainly not.
Are they going to grab me, then,
with big branchy arms?
Unless I can get away at,
like, 500 miles an hour?
Vroom!
Yes. No. I think, uh… no.
- No.
- You're not doing it right.
You've got to use your imagination,
make up an exciting story.
I'm not sure I can, Jonathan.
Aunt Lucy says
that bears who make up stories
only make trouble for themselves.
OK, then. Let me have a go.
[Judy]
Uh… Are you feeling warmed up now?
Uh… Pretty warmed up, yeah.
So, um, are you ready
to drop into the half-pipe?
Sure. Unless you want to go first.
I don't mind. You can go first.
Show me how it's done.
- Uh, why don't we do it together?
- OK. It's not that scary.
OK, Paddington. So, let's pretend
that we've travel led back in time
to the time of the dinosaurs.
- Here comes one now!
- [gasps]
- Roar!
- Whoa!
Paddington!
Ooh!
Oh, my! That was lucky.
Give me that!
How ridiculous!
And no skateboarding on the pathways!
It's not a skateboard, Mr. Curry.
It's a scooter.
No scooting, then.
Not just scooting!
Also time travelling.
Paddington has gone back in time
to 200 million years ago!
[Gasps] The Triassic Period!
Oh, my favourite time subdivision.
Well before people came along
to get on my nerves.
Back when dinosaurs ruled the Earth!
Look out, Paddington!
There's a pterosaur coming after you!
[Gasps] Huh?
No, no, Bear! Look up! Up!
A pterosaur is a flying dinosaur!
Not strictly a dinosaur, Mr. Curry.
Actually, a flying reptile.
Look out, Paddington! A pterosaur!
Eh! Eh! Squawk!
It feels amazing to drop
into the half-pipe on your scooter
and ride it out.
It's the best.
Much better than pretend games.
Oh, yeah. It sounds amazing.
I can't wait to try it.
But, um, before I do,
I think one of the wheels
on my scooter is a bit wobbly.
Listen. Can you hear that?
Yeah. I think my wheels
might be a bit wobbly too.
- [Mr. Curry] Squawk!
- [Jonathan] Watch out, Paddington!
Out of my way, Bear! Ha, ha!
Roar!
Or we could just play
with Jonathan and Paddington.
- If you want.
- No, no.
Made-up games are for little kids.
Like you said,
we've got to scoot down
the half-pipe,
for real.
Paddington, time-travelling
professor of palaeontology
and thrill-seeking treasure hunter
moves quietly through the jungle.
- Roar!
- Aaah!
- Oh!
- Paddington!
- [Jonathan] Look out for the pond!
- The pond?
The pond!
[Playful music]
Huh?
That really was lucky.
[Jonathan] Mateo! Judy!
Hey, guys, have you come
to do some real scooting?
Well, it's all got
a little too real for me.
I preferred it when you were
making up stories, Judy.
Well, we're having
way more fun in the half-pipe.
Aren't we, Mateo?
It doesn't look like you're having fun.
You're just sitting there.
You're not even on your scooters.
We're just, um… hanging out.
You know, taking a break.
Taking a break from what?
Have you dropped into the half-pipe yet?
We're going to. Aren't we, Mateo?
I think you're too scared to do it.
OK, I admit it.
I haven't done it, but Mateo…
I haven't done it either.
It's really scary
when you get to the edge.
- Look.
- Oh, no.
I wouldn't like to try this,
even with my lucky helmet.
- [Jonathan] Whoa!
- [Paddington] Aah!
Oh! Oh, dear.
[lively music]
- Whoa!
- [Paddington] Oh!
Oh, my gosh! Amazing!
[Kids] Paddington!
[Paddington] Oh!
- That's amazing!
- Incredible.
- You aced it.
- You so did.
- Did you enjoy it?
- Uh, no. I did not.
I would rather not do it again. Ever.
If it wasn't for the helmet
of good luck,
I don't know what I'd have done.
I much preferred it
when it was make-believe.
To be honest, I did too.
I like it when we ride around
on our scooters and make up stories.
It's just Mateo said
it was for little kids
and I felt a bit silly.
I know. Sorry. I don't think
I'm ready for the half-pipe yet.
Can we all play your game instead?
[All] Yes!
[Judy's voice] And that's when Mateo…
Mega Mateo.
[Judy's voice] Sorry, Mega Mateo
teamed up with Paddington
to travel two million years
into the future!
Mind the lasers, Paddington!
It's OK! They bounce off
the helmet of good luck.
[Squawking]
Hurry! Pterosaur!
Squawk! Raah!
- [Jonathan] Yeah!
- [squawking]
- [laughter]
- [Mr. Curry] Wee-hee! Hoo-hoo!
[Judy] Watch out, Paddington!
He's gaining on you!
[laughter]
[Paddington] So, Aunt Lucy, in the end,
Judy realised that you should
never stop doing something you like
because you're worried about
what other people think.
And I'm happy to say I'm not
giving up any of the things I love.
Love from Paddington.
Oh!
Well, that is lucky!

*THE ADVENTURES OF PADDINGTON*
Season 01 Episode 14
[Paddington] Dear Aunt Lucy,
Episode Title: "Paddington and the Finger Trap" 1 of 2
I always thought a trap
was something you got stuck in.
But I've found out that it can also
be something that sets you free.
Let me start at the beginning.
[Glass breaking]
Oh! Sorry, Mr. Gruber.
[Hungarian accent]
No harm done, Paddington.
[Chuckles] I mean, it was
Neil Armstrong's space helmet,
but no one's hurt,
so, let's tidy up
these less breakable things next.
Hmm.
Oh! [Sniffs]
Whatever is this, Mr. Gruber?
Ooh! That is
a very special item indeed.
A Chinese finger trap.
It's a sort of puzzle that…
Well, let me show you.
- There.
- Oh!
- What now?
- Now you have to get it off.
Hmm.
[Grunting]
[Gasps]
Oh! However do you get it off?
It's actually rather simple
when you know the trick.
Oh! Amazing!
[Chuckles]
And what is the trick, Mr. Gruber?
Well, to tell you
would rather defeat the point.
Why don't you borrow it for a bit?
See if you can work it out.
I would like that very much.
Thank you, Mr. Gruber!
[|whimsical music]
[Mr. Curry] Me, me, me, me, me!
Me, me, me, me, me, me, me!
Unique New York. Unique New York.
Me, me, me… Aaah!
Oh!
- [Clicking]
- Huh?
Bear, what have you done?
It's a Chinese finger trap.
Then take it off at once.
Um. I'm afraid I can't do that.
As I was trying to explain,
it's a sort of puzzle...
Good grief, Bear! Do you mean to say
you have trapped my finger
in an apparatus you have no idea
how to remove?
Oh, I don't know.
Some of those words
were very complicated...
Today of all days!
Right. Let's get this off.
Mr. Gruber said
there's a trick to release it.
- So perhaps if we ask him…
- I don't have time for that!
Besides, I'm a very clever man,
so I'm sure I can work out
this trick, whatever it is.
Oh! Let's go and ask Mr. Gruber.
- [Mr. Curry] Hello?
- [Paddington] Mr. Gruber!
[Mr. Curry]
Hello? Oh, where on Earth is he?
[Paddington] Uh… "Closed for the day."
[Mr. Curry] What?
This is terrible!
Today is such an important day,
and I can't get through it
with just one hand.
Well, I suppose
there's only one thing we can do.
You're right.
We have to break into the shop,
grab that sword
and cut the finger trap off.
That's not what I meant.
And it's also illegal. And dangerous.
I meant, I'll have to be
your other hand for the day.
On audition day?
Audition day?
For the town play!
Every year, I try to get a part
and every year I fail!
This time,
it was supposed to be different.
And now…
Now I can't even prepare!
Oh!
I could help you prepare, Mr. Curry.
Fine. The sooner we get started,
the sooner I can fail,
suck up my disappointment
and start preparing for next year.
Oh! Come on!
- Walk faster.
- Yes, Mr. Curry.
Not that fast. Slow down!
Stitch!
[Painful grunt]
I'm sorry. After you.
- You go first.
- Oh, of course.
Oh!
Oh, just get inside.
- So, what's first?
- Oh!
An actor's body is his instrument,
and thus it must be cared for.
Just as a racing driver
fills his car with petrol,
my instrument
requires a full English.
With sausages,
bacon and all the trimmings.
Mrs. Bird makes those.
She uses a sharp knife,
hot oil and a heavy frying pan, and…
- [Thump]
- [Mr. Curry cries in pain]
[Gasps] Let's go for something simpler.
[Soft music]
- Cereal next.
- Perhaps I can help.
- No.
- Oh, I insist.
- Sorry.
- [sighs]
It was to be expected.
But some actually made it
into the bowl.
Now… milk.
- Ah.
- Careful.
Mr. Curry,
I can open a carton of milk.
Oh! That was actually pretty good.
[Toaster dings]
- Toast!
- No!
[loud crash]
Uh… How about a banana?
Oh!
[Squeaking]
Oh…
There. That wasn't too bad, was it?
Yeah. Not bad, I suppose.
Oh, that won't do.
Let me get that for you.
Hmm. Now, be very diligent.
I take great pride in my nostrils.
[Screaming] Bear!
- [Mr. Curry grunting]
- Almost there.
[Mr. Curry] Aah!
Ow!
There.
Oh, sorry, Mr. Curry. Did that hurt?
It was just a bit of an eye-waterer.
[Mr. Curry] Oh!
- I'm terribly sorry.
- [bell rings]
No. No time for that.
Come on, we're going to be late.
Come on, come on, come on, come on.
[Bell rings]
- [Paddington] Almost there.
- [Mr. Curry] Sorry about that.
I'm not as young as I was.
Looks like we made it just in time.
Ta-dah!
- [Miss Potts] Next!
- Oh!
Tough crowd.
Do we have, uh…
Mr. Curry?
Yes. Ahem. Hello.
- Centre stage, please, Mr. Curry.
- Um…
Is it OK to bring my,
um, lucky charm on with me?
Whatever you need.
Just stand still
and don't say anything.
So, you're back. Hamlet again, is it?
[Delighted] Oh!
Uh, no, actually,
I have spent the entire year
devising my own piece of performance.
A very serious monologue
I have called "Alone."
Oh! Please begin.
[Clears throat]
Alone.
I have spent my entire life alone!
[Chomping]
Ah!
[Swallows]
Oh, sorry, Mr. Curry.
[Sighs]
[Clears throat] Alone!
I have spent my entire life alone!
[Whispering] Get back here.
My sandwich!
Where are you going?
No, no, no, no, no! Come back!
[loud crash]
[Groans] Oh, no!
No! No, no, no, no, no!
Alone!
That was close.
[Wheels squeaking]
Oh, no! Aaah!
[Mr. Curry screams]
[Painful groans]
Alone!
[Mr. Curry] Bear! Get it off!
[Paddington] The painting or the trap?
[Mr. Curry]
Oh, why did I bother believing?
Stop! I've seen enough.
And it was hysterical.
How did you… and Paddington…
and the painting?
Mr. Curry, I can see why it took you
all year to plan it.
I have the perfect part for you both.
Will you be my clowns?
- Oh, Miss Potts, there's been a mistake...
- Shh!
I've waited years
for a part in this play
and I'll take anything I can get!
Thank you, Paddington!
- [Spring clicks open]
- Huh?
[Gasps] We did it!
That's strange.
Or is it?
Do you see, Paddington, the trick
to this trap is quite simple.
The harder you pull apart,
the tighter it becomes.
To release it, you have
to push it closer together.
Which seems like exactly
what you two have done today.
[Paddington] It was true, Aunt Lucy.
Mr. Curry and I
had got closer together.
And that's good,
because when people come together,
they can achieve much greater things.
Love from Paddington.
[Spring clicks shut]

Dear Aunt Lucy,
Episode Title: "Paddington Rides a Scooter" 2 of 2
I don't think you should give up
doing something you love
just because you're worried about
what other people might say.
It all started when we went
to the park with our scooters.
[Judy's voice] It was a time of volcanoes,
a time of mighty storms.
And a time in need of a hero.
A hero who could wear…
[loud lightening]
The lucky helmet!
The lucky helmet?
How wonderful!
I certainly feel lucky,
just for putting it on.
It's just a game, Paddington.
You know, pretend.
Oh, yes. Pretend. Of course.
But look!
Super Jonathan's here
to save the world
from the mega-robots!
A massive volcano has just erupted
and, look out, hot lava!
- [Jonathan] Ha, ha!
- [Judy] Woohoo!
Quick, Paddington!
Out of the way! Hot lava!
[Judy] Whoo!
I thought it was just pretend.
- [Judy] Hot lava!
- [Jonathan] Hot lava!
If you say so. Uh… Hot lava!
Hot lava!
[Both] Hot lava!
Hot lava. Hot lava. Hot lava.
[Chuckles] Nice helmet, Paddington.
[Gasps]
Thank you, Mateo. It's a lucky one.
Mateo! Do you want to play with us?
I'm Super Jonathan.
You can be… Mega Mateo!
That sounds awesome, Jonathan.
I used to play made-up games,
pretending to do tricks and stuff,
but that was when I was little.
Now, I'm all about doing real tricks
on the half-pipe.
[Gasps] You must be awfully brave
to go on the half-pipe.
Just the thought of it
makes me rather dizzy.
We don't go on the half-pipe.
We just make up stories
and act them out.
Judy's really good at it. Aren't you?
Um… I… I don't know.
Of course you are! Remember
the one about the robo-sharks?
Or… Oh!
The one about the space unicorn
that fires lasers from his horn!
- [Imitates laser sounds]
- OK, well, have fun.
Um… I think, today, I'll have a go
on the half-pipe with Mateo
and do some, um, real tricks.
OK. So, it's just me and you now,
Paddington.
We'll just have to make up
our own stories.
[Judy] Wow. It… it looks pretty high.
Oh, I've scooted down it
loads of times.
Oh! You go first, then.
OK. We've got to warm up first.
You can't just go straight into it.
Oh! Warm up. Let's do that.
- Right, then. Uh, Jonathan?
- Super Jonathan.
Super Jonathan, yes. Is…? Hmm.
[Gasps]
In a park and the sky is blue
and the sun is shining.
And…
Oh! It is lovely here, isn't it?
Make it more exciting.
Oh! Um…
You're surrounded by… hmm…
Trees!
Massive trees? Huge ones?
- Some of them are quite big, yes.
- Crashing down all around me!
- And… are they on fire?
- Certainly not.
Are they going to grab me, then,
with big branchy arms?
Unless I can get away at,
like, 500 miles an hour?
Vroom!
Yes. No. I think, uh… no.
- No.
- You're not doing it right.
You've got to use your imagination,
make up an exciting story.
I'm not sure I can, Jonathan.
Aunt Lucy says
that bears who make up stories
only make trouble for themselves.
OK, then. Let me have a go.
[Judy]
Uh… Are you feeling warmed up now?
Uh… Pretty warmed up, yeah.
So, um, are you ready
to drop into the half-pipe?
Sure. Unless you want to go first.
I don't mind. You can go first.
Show me how it's done.
- Uh, why don't we do it together?
- OK. It's not that scary.
OK, Paddington. So, let's pretend
that we've travel led back in time
to the time of the dinosaurs.
- Here comes one now!
- [gasps]
- Roar!
- Whoa!
Paddington!
Ooh!
Oh, my! That was lucky.
Give me that!
How ridiculous!
And no skateboarding on the pathways!
It's not a skateboard, Mr. Curry.
It's a scooter.
No scooting, then.
Not just scooting!
Also time travelling.
Paddington has gone back in time
to 200 million years ago!
[Gasps] The Triassic Period!
Oh, my favourite time subdivision.
Well before people came along
to get on my nerves.
Back when dinosaurs ruled the Earth!
Look out, Paddington!
There's a pterosaur coming after you!
[Gasps] Huh?
No, no, Bear! Look up! Up!
A pterosaur is a flying dinosaur!
Not strictly a dinosaur, Mr. Curry.
Actually, a flying reptile.
Look out, Paddington! A pterosaur!
Eh! Eh! Squawk!
It feels amazing to drop
into the half-pipe on your scooter
and ride it out.
It's the best.
Much better than pretend games.
Oh, yeah. It sounds amazing.
I can't wait to try it.
But, um, before I do,
I think one of the wheels
on my scooter is a bit wobbly.
Listen. Can you hear that?
Yeah. I think my wheels
might be a bit wobbly too.
- [Mr. Curry] Squawk!
- [Jonathan] Watch out, Paddington!
Out of my way, Bear! Ha, ha!
Roar!
Or we could just play
with Jonathan and Paddington.
- If you want.
- No, no.
Made-up games are for little kids.
Like you said,
we've got to scoot down
the half-pipe,
for real.
Paddington, time-travelling
professor of palaeontology
and thrill-seeking treasure hunter
moves quietly through the jungle.
- Roar!
- Aaah!
- Oh!
- Paddington!
- [Jonathan] Look out for the pond!
- The pond?
The pond!
[Playful music]
Huh?
That really was lucky.
[Jonathan] Mateo! Judy!
Hey, guys, have you come
to do some real scooting?
Well, it's all got
a little too real for me.
I preferred it when you were
making up stories, Judy.
Well, we're having
way more fun in the half-pipe.
Aren't we, Mateo?
It doesn't look like you're having fun.
You're just sitting there.
You're not even on your scooters.
We're just, um… hanging out.
You know, taking a break.
Taking a break from what?
Have you dropped into the half-pipe yet?
We're going to. Aren't we, Mateo?
I think you're too scared to do it.
OK, I admit it.
I haven't done it, but Mateo…
I haven't done it either.
It's really scary
when you get to the edge.
- Look.
- Oh, no.
I wouldn't like to try this,
even with my lucky helmet.
- [Jonathan] Whoa!
- [Paddington] Aah!
Oh! Oh, dear.
[lively music]
- Whoa!
- [Paddington] Oh!
Oh, my gosh! Amazing!
[Kids] Paddington!
[Paddington] Oh!
- That's amazing!
- Incredible.
- You aced it.
- You so did.
- Did you enjoy it?
- Uh, no. I did not.
I would rather not do it again. Ever.
If it wasn't for the helmet
of good luck,
I don't know what I'd have done.
I much preferred it
when it was make-believe.
To be honest, I did too.
I like it when we ride around
on our scooters and make up stories.
It's just Mateo said
it was for little kids
and I felt a bit silly.
I know. Sorry. I don't think
I'm ready for the half-pipe yet.
Can we all play your game instead?
[All] Yes!
[Judy's voice] And that's when Mateo…
Mega Mateo.
[Judy's voice] Sorry, Mega Mateo
teamed up with Paddington
to travel two million years
into the future!
Mind the lasers, Paddington!
It's OK! They bounce off
the helmet of good luck.
[Squawking]
Hurry! Pterosaur!
Squawk! Raah!
- [Jonathan] Yeah!
- [squawking]
- [laughter]
- [Mr. Curry] Wee-hee! Hoo-hoo!
[Judy] Watch out, Paddington!
He's gaining on you!
[laughter]
[Paddington] So, Aunt Lucy, in the end,
Judy realised that you should
never stop doing something you like
because you're worried about
what other people think.
And I'm happy to say I'm not
giving up any of the things I love.
Love from Paddington.
Oh!
Well, that is lucky!
