[theme music]

(Paddington) 'Mr. Gruber?'

Mr. Gruber? Are you here?

It's me, Paddington.

I've brought buns and cocoa for our elevenses.

Mr. Gruber?

Mr. Gruber, have you forgotten?

Mr. Gruber?

[dramatic music]

Huh?

Oh, Mr. Brown. How nice to see you.

'Come inside. I've got a surprise for you.'

I'm very glad you chanced to come back here, Mr. Brown.

I've been so busy I completely forgot our elevenses.

You see, under here is perhaps a one-of-a-kind item.

Oh!

Mr. Brown?

'Uh, Mr. Brown, where are you?'

[laughs] 'There's nothing to fear,

Mr. Brown.'

'I promise you.'

- What is it, Mr. Gruber? - Something quite wonderful.

It's wonderful, Mr. Gruber.

- What is it? - It's a horseless carriage.

A very early steam-driven car.

I found it by accident.

'I doubt there's another one like it'

'in the whole of England.'

'Quite valuable, actually.'

Right now, it does look like a hunk of old junk

but I hope to get it cleaned up.

Uh, that is, if you can..

[chuckles] ...spare the time to help me.

Oh, yes, please, Mr. Gruber. I have the time right now.

But you haven't finished your bun and cocoa.

- Finished. - Oh, so you have.

Well, shall we begin?

'You know, Mr. Brown, there will be a festival'

'on the Portobello road soon.'

That's nice.

'There will be a fair and a parade'

'down the center of the street.'

Uh, I was hoping to have the car ready to enter in the parade.

Perhaps we'll even win a prize.

You're full of surprises today, Mr. Gruber.

(Paddington) And Mr. Gruber asked me

to help him restore the car.

And he says we may even win a prize at the festival.

Well, that's all very nice

but you can tell us at the dinner table.

You're already late. Now you just get upstairs

and get all that oil and muck off.

Mind you, use soap and water, not my clean towels.

Mr. Gruber says there will be just enough room in the backseat

for Judy, David and Jonathan i-if we finish in time.

- Oh, great. - It sure'd be wonderful.

Well, if you go at it like your dinner

you're not likely to ever finish.

- Ready, Mr. Brown? - Ready, Mr. Gruber.

[grunting]

Very good, Mr. Brown. It's coming nicely.

[grunting]

That's quite high enough, Mr. Brown.

'Now we must move it to the side.'

rattle rattle

[dramatic music]

(Paddington) 'Sure.'

Uh, Mr. Brown?

Don't worry, Mr. Gruber. E-everything is under control.

Mr. Brown, are you alright?

Nothing to worry about...yet.

[dramatic music]

(Paddington) Now you can worry, Mr. Gruber.

Let go now, Mr. Brown.

crash

Perfect landing, Mr. Brown.

Aunt Doosie would be proud to see me now.

[Mr. Gruber chuckles] 'I hope you don't mind'

if I handle the operation this time, Mr. Brown.

Oh, no, Mr. Gruber. I shouldn't have all the

fun.

We did it, Mr. Brown. And just in time.

The festival is tomorrow. This calls for a celebration.

How about some nice, hot cocoa and buns?

I can't think of a better way

to celebrate, Mr. Gruber.

To a job well done.

To a job that couldn't have been done without your help.

(Paddington) 'We finished.'

There you are. Straight upstairs and get washed for dinner.

But we finished, Mrs. Bird.

And Mr. Gruber thinks we might win the grand prize

at the festival tomorrow.

You're not likely to win anything

covered with grime like this.

This is Mr. Brown's special bubble mixture.

You only need a capful.

If one capful does all this

imagine what several capfuls will do.

Well..

'...your fur looks as smooth as silky cream.'

If Mr. Gruber's car is only half as shiny

you're sure to win first prize.

[instrumental music]

screech

- Gorgeous. - Thank you.

But it couldn't have been done without young Mr. Brown's help.

It's beautiful, Mr. Gruber.

Careful, Jonathan.

Finger smudges could cause Mr. Gruber

to lose the grand prize.

Paddington will be most upset.

Come along. Let's take a look at the fair.

Yes, I must see the floral show.

Oh, and I must have a look at the baking and preserves.

- Always something new to learn. - 'Come along, Paddington.'

Why don't you, Mr. Brown?

Well, there are a few things I'd like to look into.

You should go.

You're only young once, you know.

I've got to straighten out one of the wheels

but I'm quite able to do it on my own.

[indistinct chattering]

"Madame Helenka. Knows all, tells all."

I wonder if she can tell me whether or not

Mr. Gruber's car will win the grand prize.

(female #1) 'Paddington?'

'Paddington Brown?'

'In here, Paddington.'

'That's right. Come to Madame Helenka.'

'Sit down, Paddington.'

'Madame Helenka will tell all.'

How do you know my name?

Madame Helenka knows everything

and tells everything for a small price.

What can Madame Helenka tell this bear?

[Arabian music]

Hmm, yes, yes.

The spirits are speaking to me.

[gasps] Who is this I see in my glass?

[Paddington gasps] 'Aunt Lucy?'

What are you doing here? You're supposed to be in

Peru.

I am in Peru, but I've come to see you.

Is everything alright in the home for retired

bears?

It is wonderful here, but I'm only interested in you.

Are you well?

Oh, yes, Aunt Lucy. I'm very well.

The Browns and Mrs. Bird take great care of me.

Oh, the spirits are weakening.

I must go, Paddington.

Oh, don't go yet, Aunt Lucy.

I must..

[rumbling]

Oh!

thud

Aunt Lucy?

[sighs] Aunt Lucy.

She must be incredible.

I'll let you know. I'm next.

[rumbling]

crash

Oh, no.

[fire crackling]

This has to be the greatest show on Earth for 50 pence.

Come back here, bear. You haven't paid me my 50 pence.

Uh...that is, come again.

Anytime.

Uh, who's next?

Come, come, don't be shy.

Madame Helenka knows all and tells all.

'Adofo, get this tent back up!'

(Paddington) 'It was really nice

talking to Aunt Lucy again'

'although I don't remember her having a Hungarian accent.'

I'm just sorry I forgot to ask Madame Helenka

whether or not Mr. Gruber's car would win the grand prize.

She seemed to know everything too.

I think it's time for a bun.

(Paddington) Uh, uh, pardon me.

Excuse me.

Uh, uh, pardon.

May I have a..

Month's free buns.

Ah, well, you'll have to be winning the caber toss for that.

Where can I find a caber?

Bears are very good at tossing things.

They are? Well, you better look on the board.

Thank you very much.

(male #1) 'Let's have a go at the wheel.'

I wonder if the fortune teller's any good.

[indistinct chatter]

Excuse me. Uh, uh, pardon.

I'm terribly sorry. Excuse me, ma'am.

Can you, please, tell me where the caber toss is?

Ma'am, I'm not.

Oh, I'm terribly sorry.

I was just wondering if I could toss your caber.

I hope you can what you're takin' on.

Mrs. Bird often lets me toss her pancakes.

Pancakes?

Oh, well, be it on your head as long as it's not on mine.

'Come this way.'

I have a young Peruvian bear

who'd like to try his paw at tossing the caber.

He says he's tossed pancakes.

Well, if your mind's set, lad

'put your paws together'

'bend your knees and close your eyes'

'and, ugh, here you go.'

'She's all yours, lad. Take her steady.'

[bird chirping]

[grunting]

[crowd cheering]

You've got it. You've got it.

[grunts] I don't think I want it anymore.

Thank you very much.

[all clamoring]

Watch out.

[groaning]

And now for something really difficult.

[all gasping]

[groaning]

[crowd applauding]

[groans]

[upbeat music]

[crowd cheering]

[all gasping]

[crowd cheering]

[crowd applauding]

He's comin' back.

What am I supposed to do with it?

Toss it.

Where?

Not here, laddie.

Where then?

Over here, Mr. Brown.

Oh, Mr. Gruber.

(Mr. Gruber) 'Over here, Mr. Brown.

Over here.'

[crash]

That was a boney good toss of the caber, laddie.

(Mr. Gruber) 'I'm afraid

this is all my fault.'

Mr. Gruber, your car.

If I hadn't called you when I did

this never would have happened.

But it missed your car, Mr. Gruber.

Aye, laddie, but it's flattened this wheel.

Had it not, you were certain to win first prize.

I'm sorry, laddie.

This wouldn't have happened if I hadn't tried to win

a month's supply of free buns.

All is not lost, Mr. Brown.

The pole only hit the wheel.

The rest of the car is still in excellent condition.

Can you still enter it in the parade?

Oh, I'm afraid our chances of entering

the grand parade are over.

What if you ran it on three wheels?

Hmm, it's been done before.

'But I'm afraid that even the combined weights'

'of Judy, Jonathan and David won't be enough'

'for my counter balance.'

'Besides, the parade's only moments away.'

[dramatic music]

- 'A challenger.' - 'This ought to be good.'

[indistinct chatter]

E-excuse me, Mr. Galore.

ding

thud

If you want my advice, you go in there, fight him

and give him one-four while you have the chance.

[all cheering]

Oh, what?

[all cheering]

[grunts]

Here now, fight fair.

[crowd booing]

Oh, you're doing great, mate.

I wouldn't have stayed in the ring with that brute

for the sake of a little money.

And I'd like to live to spend it.

By my reckoning, you're up quite a tiny--

Keep it up. Don't let us down.

ding

Fun and games is over, bear.

Time to get serious.

If it's all the same to you, Mr. Galore

I haven't been having much fun so far.

[laughs] Gotcha.

[grunting]

(Paddington) 'What are you doing,

Mr. Galore?'

This is what you call a bear hug.

(Mrs. Bird) 'Stop these goings-on at once.'

Hey now, can't you see I'm busy?

Your turn will come soon enough.

My turn, is it, Mr. Muscles Galore?

So you beat up women as well as defenseless bears?

No, he, he's hardly defenseless, mum.

He's had me running about for almost ten minutes.

It's really not Mr. Galore's fault, Mrs. Bird.

And it wasn't his muscles I was after.

It was his tons.

There really isn't time to explain, Mr. Galore

but if you'll come sit in the back of Mr. Gruber's car

you can have all my winnings.

For ten pounds? Lead me to it.

[crowd cheering]

Thank you, Mr. Galore.

Thank you, Paddington.

This is the easiest ten pounds

I ever made.

Congratulations, Mr. Gruber. Well done.

All the congratulations belong to young Mr. Brown here.

Yes. Congratulations, Paddington.

One of the chaps said you set a new record.

(Jonathan) 'Ten minutes in the ring

with two-ton.'

(Mary) 'Well, speaking for myself,

and I'm sure for Mrs. Bird'

I feel very secure walking home in such safe paws.

Yes. Come, everyone.

Goodbye, Mr. Gruber.

So, Paddington, will you be preparing

for a rematch with two-ton?

No. I think I shall have a hot bath, Mr. Brown.

I'm afraid I'm a bit dusty.

Well, wonders never cease.

I think there's a lot to be said for having shiny fur.

I may need the rest of your bubble mixture to put it right.
