[theme music]

[instrumental music]

Ah! Thank goodness, it's almost the weekend.

Only one more day to go.

Hard day at the office, dear?

[music continues]

Ah, it's good to be home after a day in the city jungle.

(Paddington) 'Ahem! Did someone

mention the jungle?'

I know all about jungles, Mr. Brown.

(David) 'Ha ha ha!

No, Paddington.'

'Uncle Henry means a working jungle.'

'That's a different kind.'

I've never heard of a working jungle.

Does it have killer insects?

- No! - Oh!

Perhaps it's known for its searing heat?

Well, it can get quite warm, I mean..

Tempers flare, the crush of deadlines, searing heat, oh, no.

Then it must a jungle where one encounters the hostile forces

of nature, like the great explorers in this book

I borrowed from Mr. Gruber.

No, thank goodness!

But I do encounter hostile superiors now and again.

No killer insects or searing heat and no hostile forces.

It sounds more like Hyde Park, than Darkest Peru.

I don't know what my Aunt Lucy would think of it.

(Mrs. Bird) 'Dinner's nearly

ready everyone.'

Your Aunt Lucy would say that even explorers must eat.

Yes! That's exactly what she would say.

I must go help Mrs. Bird.

Fancy not having any searing heat.

Thank you, for letting me help, Mrs. Bird.

Thank you, Paddington.

But just be sure and shell the peas

before you set to boiling them.

You can be sure I will, Mrs. Bird.

When you're involved, I can't be sure of anything.

crackle crackle crackle

I believe that we could all use

a bit of relaxation this weekend.

So, how about a Saturday excursion?

(Judy) 'What a grand idea!'

- Yes, please. - Smashing.

Are we going to the zoo?

To Regents Park?

Wouldn't it be more fun if it was a...surprise?

What on earth's the matter with these peas?

They, they're like bullets!

Paddington was in charge of them.

How much water did you use?

Water? Oh, no!

Anyway, you know what always happens on excursion's, dear.

Yes, they have a habit of turning out

quite unexpectedly due to a certain bear.

Is an excursion anything like an expedition?

Oh, when it comes to this family, Paddington

life is one long expedition.

Could I be in charge of planning it, Mr. Brown?

I promise it won't be like the peas.

But Paddington, how can you plan an expedition

when you don't even know where we're going?

It's when you don't know where you're going

that you need to make the best plans.

(both) Huh?

Saturday is the day after tomorrow

and there's so much to do.

Ah! Perhaps Mr. Brown is taking us to the Sahara Desert.

Or mountain climbing or..

[snoring]

(Mrs. Bird) 'Now, where could my special

saucepan have got to.'

(Jonathan) 'Has anyone seen

my Wellington boots?'

(Judy) 'Mine are missing as well.'

(David) 'And I can't find

my baseball bat.'

(Henry) My gold clubs are always

kept in the cupboard.

Where can they be?

I don't know, dear, has anyone seen my shower cap?

I can't find it anywhere.

Mm-hmm!

Would that be the same shower cap that's attached

to a set of golf clubs wearing over-sized Wellington boots

and strolling past the garden window?

Paddington, whatever are you doing?

Why, preparing for an expedition of course.

By packing my shower cap?

It's in case we have an emergency, Mrs. Brown.

Actually, Paddington, we won't be needing any of these things.

I had something much simpler in mind.

Now think simple where bears are concerned.

Perhaps, if I knew where we were going.

Then it wouldn't be a surprise anymore, would it?

No! Quite right!

Ah! It isn't easy making plans

when you don't know where you're going.

tap tap tap

Yeow! Drat this roof! Ouch! Ow!

Are you alright, Mr. Curry?

Is that you, bear?

Spying on me again, eh?

Oh, I, no, Mr. Curry.

I was just planning tomorrow's

expedition with the Browns.

Ah! but it's not going very well so far.

Ah, perhaps you know something about expeditions, Mr. Curry?

Me? Preposterous bear!

Besides I'm much too busy with this roof to bother about.

Ah.. Hmm!

Yes.

What you need, bear, is a better view.

- A better view? - Yes, indeed!

And it just so happens that my

roof has the best view around.

- It does? - Guaranteed!

Come on up, if you like.

Oh, yes! Please!

Here, you can lend a paw with these slates

while you're up here. To help you think.

Oh, thank you very much, Mr. Curry.

I have to go out and do some shopping.

I shall expect to see it all done by the time I get back.

And be careful of those slates.

They break very easily and I don't have any spares.

Oh, that's alright, Mr. Curry. Bears are good in laying slates.

thud

And don't spend too much time admiring the view.

There's bad weather on the way.

Oh, I wasn't admiring the view Mr. Curry, I was looking at you.

- I mean.. - Puh! How dare you, bear!

tap tap tap

thud

(Mr. Curry) 'Remember, bear,

the more slates'

'that you hammer down'

'the clearer your view point will be.'

In that case, Mr. Curry, I shall soon have

the answer to my problem.

And I shall have my roof repaired free of charge.

Hmm, if our trip is to Morocco, we must visit the Kasbah..

Or on the other hand I'll expect to have

very good marmalade sandwiches in France.

tap tap

[hammering]

Oh, dear, I'm out of tiles

and I still haven't looked at the view.

[birds chirping]

[instrumental music]

[Paddington humming]

Ah, these shall do nicely.

thud

Oh, no! I knew something like this would happen.

[hammering]

Paddington, why are up on Mr. Curry's roof?

Hello, Jonathan, I was hoping to get a better view

so that I can work out our expedition problem.

Haven't you solved it yet?

Well, no. All I can see is tiles.

If you want to plan an expedition

you should go to Royal Geographical Society.

They'll give you all the help you need.

The Royal Geographical Society!

I shall go there first thing tomorrow.

Before Mr. Curry gets up.

Come on, everyone, it's a beautiful day

and we're going to the river.

- Bravo, daddy! - Great!

I can't wait to go swimming.

Where Paddington?

Hurry up, Paddington we're ready to go!

Perhaps he's still asleep.

Paddington? He's been and gone hours ago.

Where did he go, Mrs. Bird?

He didn't say.

But he was down early.

(Mrs. Bird) 'And he went

without his breakfast.'

(all) Went without his breakfast?

And he had a thoughtful gleam in his eye

that I didn't much like the look of.

But where could he have gone?

He knows that today is excursion day.

I think I know where he might be.

You see, I mentioned the Royal Geographical Society

to him yesterday.

No matter. We'll stop and pick

him on the way to the river.

He can't have got into trouble yet.

(Mrs. Bird) With Paddington anything

is possible.

(Paddington) 'The Royal Geographical Society.

This must be it.'

[instrumental music]

[clears throat] Excuse me, is this where

you come

if you want to plan an expedition?

We've got expeditions from Albania to Zimbabwe.

- Have you got an appointment? - Yes, thank you.

Mr. Brown's appointed me leader of his expedition.

You're welcome, eh..

Ah, ah, ah, here now, trying to slip one pass me, eh?

Unauthorized persons aren't allowed in.

I am not an unauthorized person.

I'm an authorized bear.

screech

It's outside with you.

thud

Stop that bear!

(Paddington) This must be the Sahara

desert expedition.

I know you're in here.

[instrumental music]

I could have sworn I saw him come in here.

Thank you for the use of your hump.

Halt!

[music continues]

Hm! Bear, are you in here?

[growling]

Ah!

screech

Uh-huh! Where did he go?

That bear must have double back on me.

Huh!

(male #1) Uh, just the fellow

I've been looking for.

Come along, you're late already.

- Late? - For the expedition of course.

How do you do? I'm the director of expeditions.

Huh, weak grip.

How do you do? I'm--

Of course, you are. Got eyes, haven't I?

thud

I beg your pardon.

Hurry on, now.

But I came here to get--

(male #1) 'Your requisition form.

And here it is.'

Better, hurry, if you want to

pick up your expedition equipment

from the sporting goods store before it closes.

Enjoy the expedition!

Don't forget to send a postcard!

(Bob) 'Um, sir, have you

seen a small bear.'

Hello, Bob, I've just sent off the leader

of the Jamaican rafting expedition.

But, sir, these gentlemen are

from the Jamaican rafting expedition.

We've come for our requisition form, don't you know?

But I just gave it to you.

It's that bear again. After him!

[instrumental music]

screech

vroom

[whistling]

screech

Follow that bear, man.

I thought that chap had a weak grip for a leader.

(Mary) Excuse me, but

have seen a bear?

Yeah, follow the Jamaicans, they're following the bear.

He's taken their supply requisition.

I'm going for tea.

(Mary) 'Thank you, very much.'

Excuse me, I've come for my supplies.

I'm sorry, but you'll have to come back later.

I'm expecting an important client

from the Royal Geographical Society.

I've just come from there.

You're with the Jamaican expedition?

Why didn't you say so? Right this way, sir.

Actually I'm with the Brown's expedition.

This is our special expedition section.

Mm-hmm!

And this your top of the line

luxury dinghy.

Presently, it's hooked onto the rafting simulator.

I've never been in one of these.

Since you're obviously a professional

perhaps you'd like to try it out.

Oh, yes, please.

[squeaking]

It's like being on the Canoe Lake at Bright Sea.

This model includes several extras as standard equipment.

Fishing line and hooks.

A sail, automatic distress signal.

Help! Help!

Then there's your extra handkerchief's

and as a special bonus

seasickness tablets.

Not just a dinghy..

...it's a way of life!

- So.. - I'd like some now, please.

Now to show you the best feature.

The entire craft fits into the small duffle bag.

When you want to re-inflate it you just pull the little chord.

Amazing, oh, how much does it cost?

[laughs] It's free for you, sir.

Courtesy of the Royal Geographical Society.

Free? Oh, that is good value.

Well, good luck!

How exiting of Mr. Brown to arrange a rafting expedition.

screech

vroom

vroom

vroom

[instrumental music]

- Pull over, man. - Paddington, it's us!

With this rain it looks as if our

day at the river is washed out.

If you ask me, the river's coming to us

instead of us going to the river.

Oh, I hope Paddington isn't too disappointed.

He does like his outings.

I just hope that we can catch Paddington

and straighten out this business

with those Jamaican gentlemen.

Ah-choo!

Oh, dear, I seemed to have

forgotten my handkerchief.

Ah, please allow me. I have all the optional extras.

fff

Oh, my goodness gracious!

What's this?

An inflatable raft on the bus.

Strictly against the rules.

This is highly..

...irregular.

[screeching]

I can't bear to watch.

What's happening?

Oh no! I forgot to ask where the steering wheel is.

beep beep beep

At least I found

the distress signal.

And I'm definitely very distressed!

Attention, ship in distress.

Location is...Piccadilly Circus?

Dispatch rescue helicopter immediately.

Hoist the main sail. Aye-aye, Captain Paddington.

- 'He's getting away, man.' - 'We're losing him.'

(Paddington) 'No!'

(Mary) I've never seen such rain.

It's not fit for a dog to be out, let alone a bear.

I don't see Paddington anywhere.

Look! There he is!

screech

[instrumental music]

Oh! Liverwurst?

I told the missus to give me somewhat different.

But Liverwurst?

Ah, stopped at last.

Oh, please let me down!

gulp

A bear? In a raft?

Oh, I'm sticking to roast beef in the future.

- Paddington, dead ahead. - Our expedition raft!

(Mrs. Bird) 'Well, at least it

can't get any worse.'

(male #2) 'Ship in distress.

We're here to save you!'

(Mrs. Bird) 'I take it back.'

'It can get worse.'

(male #2) 'Remain calm, bear.

We'll save you!'

I, I'm perfectly calm.

I'm just admiring the view.

It's an even better one than Mr. Curry's.

'Where to?'

Number 32, Windsor Gardens, please!

Oh, no!

Oh!

That bear has demolished my roof!

Bear, where are you, bear?

I know you're in there somewhere!

crash

I..

Hello, everyone! I'm back!

Oh, thank goodness, you're safe.

That was the craziest thing I've ever seen.

I got a good mind to run you in.

Unlawful use of expedition equipment.

Disturbing the peace.

Impersonating a Jamaican!

Add dismantling my roof to the charges, officer.

That bear is a menace to society.

You're amazing, this bear, he got the natural talent.

Thank you for testing out our equipment, man.

You must join our two year rafting expedition.

Two years?

Paddington enjoys an outing, but that's ridiculous!

Thank you for your kind offer

but I've finally worked out my own expedition plan.

'And you're all invited.'

- 'Thank you, Paddington.' - 'Kind of you.'

(Paddington) 'Ah, staying at home

with good friends'

and lots of cocoa and marmalade sandwiches

that's my idea of a perfect expedition.
