PAT CHUCKLES JESS PURRS

Morning, Dorothy. Hi, Bill.

I've got some mail for you.

Oh, thanks, Pat. Can you just pop it down there?

Oh. What are you looking for?

Cedric, our racing pigeon.

He hasn't come back from his race yet.

We're really worried about him.

Oh, yes. Alf's beside himself.

Cedric's his favourite pigeon.

Oh, I see.

PHONE RINGS

Oh.

Hello?

Yes. Yes?

Yes! Oh, I say!

Bye, then, love.

That was Alf.

He's just had a call to say Cedric's been found safe and well.

Oh, brilliant!

That is good news.

Yes! A nice man called Sean in Northern Ireland's found him.

Northern Ireland? How are we going to get him back?

Oh. I don't know.

PHONE RINGS Oh, excuse me.

Hello? Special Delivery Service, Pat Clifton speaking.

Pat, I've got an unusual one for you today.

-How soon can you get here?

-We're on our way.

We've got a special delivery, Jess.

What's it going to be today?

Meow.

Bye, you two. Good luck with Cedric.

Thanks, Pat.

Bye, Pat.

# SDS! #

Meow.

-Hello, Ben.

-Oh, Pat, you're here.

Your special delivery today is a racing pigeon.

-Meow?

-Is that Cedric, by any chance?

Yes. But you'll never guess where you've got to pick him up.

From a man called Sean in Northern Ireland?

Huh? How did you know that?

-We have our ways, don't we, Jess?

-Meow.

Right, if we're off to Northern Ireland, better take the helicopter.

-Come on.

-Meow.

ALL: Whoa!

Oh, Pat, thank goodness we've caught you!

We've had a call from Sean.

He said Cedric's flown onto his roof and he won't come down.

And once Cedric makes up his mind, he won't budge for anyone.

No-one, except us.

And Dad can't make it. He's stuck at the dairy.

So can we come with you, Pat?

Sounds like we won't have a special delivery unless you do.

Wicked!

I think we're going to need the SDS plane, Ben.

She's all ready to go, Pat.

Well wicked!

-Oh, I say!

-Cheese on peas!

-Setting course for Ireland, Jess.

-Meow.

Hey, Mum, I can see our house from here!

HE HUMS

-Hello.

-Argh!

Oh, Alf.

-Hello?

-I thought you were at the dairy.

Aye, I was. But I'm here now.

Yes. Um... So what can I do for you?

I know Pat's taken Dorothy and our Bill to get Cedric,

but I can't just sit at home waiting for them.

I'm too worried.

Can I wait here till they get back?

Well, I'm a bit busy and...

You see, I've had Cedric since he were an ickle egg.

Yes. Oh... Of course you can stay.

Thanks, me old mucker!

Oh!

Hello there! Top of the morning to you.

Sean McGuinness is the name. Local park ranger's the game.

-I look after all the wildlife round here.

-Hi, Sean. I'm Pat.

Meow.

That's Jess and this is Dorothy and Bill.

-BOTH:

-Hello.

Ah, so the little fellow belongs to you.

He does, Sean, yes.

Well, there he is - lovely lad.

But he isn't for coming down, so he isn't.

-CEDRIC:

-Coo!

Don't worry, Mr Mc...Mr McCa...

Mr...

Sean. Mum will get our Cedric down, just you watch.

Cedric!

-Coo!

-Come to Mummy, Ceddy-Weddy.

Coochie-coo.

Coo!

Hooray!

Nice one, Mum.

-That's my little lad.

-Coo.

Let's get you home to your daddy.

-PHONE RINGS

-Coo!

-Cedric!

-Come back!

Er, hello?

Pat, it's Ben.

Sorry to bother you so soon, but Alf's here and...

Is Cedric all right, Pat? Has Dorothy got him?

Er, no, the phone startled him and now he's flown off again.

Oh, by heck! I'm sorry.

Don't worry, Alf. We'll get him back. Bye for now!

I think Cedric might have flown down to the cliffs.

Lots of birds like to roost down there.

Come on now, time for some bird-watching.

Is that him?

Oh, it is.

-Squawk.

-Coo-coo.

-BILL:

-I think he's made friends with that little bird.

Ah, now, that's a puffin.

Wow!

Cedric!

Cedric!

I don't think he can hear you.

We'll have to go down and get him.

Get him? How?

Oh, wait, I think I've got an idea.

I remember when Cedric was just a tiny little chick-chick.

Uh-huh.

He's got a nesting bowl in the house, you know.

I've just ordered him a lovely new one.

-Oh!

-Oopsie.

Don't worry, Cedric will come back safe and sound,

but right now I have to get on with work.

Oh, I... Sorry, Ben.

This place could do with a bit of a tidy.

I will give you a hand.

Take my mind off our Cedric.

Well, er...

I'll soon have this place tidier than my pigsty.

Pigsty?!

-Squawk!

-Coo!

So, do all postmen have climbing gear where you come from, Pat?

Well, yes, the Special Delivery Service always has to be prepared.

So which one of you two gets to go down?

Cedric seems to know the sound of your voice, Dorothy.

Why don't you go?

Me?

Oh.

I'm afraid I'm not that keen on heights.

It's all right, Dorothy. Cedric's my special delivery.

I should get him.

Oh, Pat, are you sure?

No problem. I've done a bit of climbing in my time.

Not quite from this height, though.

Let's see. Ivor Street.

Kenny Gardens.

Better move these.

Don't want someone tripping over them.

And this one's for...

Huh?

Steady does it.

-CEDRIC:

-Coo-coo!

Stop!

Hello, Cedric. Is this your new friend?

Coo. Coo!

Come on, Cedric.

He's nearly got him.

Squawk!

Coo!

Oh.

Oh, dear. Cedric!

Cedric! Come on, boy.

Coo.

It's no use.

Cedric's in one of his moods.

He won't come to anyone except us when he's like that.

Coo!

There's only one thing for it.

I'LL have to go down.

But, Mum, you don't like heights.

-I know.

-Don't worry. I think I can help.

Now, where's this one for?

That's a big 'un.

Reckon Ben will want that one shifting outside.

Up we go!

Huh? Whoa! Oh!

Oh! Ohh!

Help!

Oh! Help, help! Alf!

Alf! Help!

Ben, you shouldn't be on the conveyor belt.

I know. Help!

-Coo!

-Squawk!

Coming down, Pat.

Oh, I say!

Hello!

Oh, hello, Pat.

Coo!

Come to Mummy, Cedric.

Coochie-coochie-coo.

-Coo.

-Squawk.

Coo.

Coo.

Oh, welcome back, Cedric.

Hooray! We've got him.

Sorry, Ben. Didn't see you up there.

And look, I've messed up all your sorting.

It's OK, Alf.

No, come on, we'll have this lot sorted in no time.

Bloom Gardens.

Bloom Gardens, check.

Parker Drive.

Parker Drive, check.

-Burns Lane.

-Burns Lane, check.

Coochie-coo.

Coo!

Thanks for your help, Sean.

Oh, yes, we couldn't have done it without you.

Yeah, thanks, Sean.

Sure, it was no problem. Lovely to meet you all.

Come back any time now, you know?

Oh, no, thanks!

I'm staying on the ground from now on.

Well, once we're home, that is.

Last one, Thompson Ground.

Thompson Ground, check.

Oh, that's for you, Alf.

For me?

Oh, it's Cedric's new nesting bowl!

I just need a Cedric to go in it.

Coo-ee!

Oh, Cedric!

Coo!

Oh, Cedric, you're back!

Oh, and you and Bill an' all, love. Well done!

Coo!

Our family's back together.

Thanks, love, and thank you, too, Pat.

No problem, Alf.
