Paddington Bear Specials

Disaster strikes the Brown household when Paddington is told he must attend school. This dramatic news leads to a series of adventures with unexpected consequences. Having accidentally mislaid a tin of worms while serving the school dinner, he is banished to the head master's study, where he falls asleep and dreams he is taking part in the school concert to be held that afternoon. After a virtuoso performance, first as a violinist, then as a strongman and finally in a Paddington version of the Can-Can, he wakes to the news that all is forgiven. Not only has the can of worms been found intact, but he is presented with a certificate to say he doesn't need to attend school after all - ever again.

The incorrigible Paddington, inspired by the magic of the Silver Screen and a sudden rainstorm, follows the famous footsteps of Gene Kelly - and in his own way - dances in the rain, with hilarious consequences.

Mr. Brown's birthday is drawing near and Paddington is worried because he can't afford to buy him a present. His efforts to raise some money lead him into a series of misadventures, first as a waiter at a society dinner, then as the dancing partner of the hostess, Mrs. Smith-Cholmley, in a televised dance competition at the local charity ball. Much to everyone's astonishment, he and his partner sweep the floor and win the cash prize. Paddington's troubles are over and he is able to grant Mr Brown his most unusual birthday wish.
