-Bye, Pat.

-Bye, love. Come on, Jess.

-Meow!

-Morning, Pat.

-Morning, Arthur. You're up bright and early.

I certainly am.

Ted's having a clear-out at his workshop.

He's giving everything away.

Goodness! I wonder why.

Who knows, Pat? All I know is I'm off there now,

-before everyone else shows up.

-Ha-ha! Early bird gets the worm, eh?

That it does, Pat, that it does. Bye.

BUZZ! Ooh!

Hello, special delivery service. Pat Clifton speaking.

Morning, Pat. I've got a very special one for you today.

-How soon can you get here?

-We're on our way.

-We've got a special delivery, Jess.

-Meow!

What's it going to be today?

Meow.

Meow!

Hello?

-Hi, Pat.

-So, what's this very special job, Ben?

It's a big one, Pat.

And you've got to pick it up in Cornwall from Ned Glen,

Ted Glen's cousin.

Ted's got a cousin called Ned? I never knew that.

-Meow!

-Yes, he's got a workshop full of inventions

-and machines down there.

-Sounds like a cousin of Ted's all right.

He's giving Ted a big old steam engine.

That's your special delivery.

Must be why Ted's clearing out his workshop - to make room.

It's too big for the helicopter, so you'll need the SDS plane.

-Right you are.

-Oh, and I've asked Alf to lend us his quad bike.

You might need it to move the engine.

-Good thinking, Ben. Come on, Jess. We'd better get going.

-Meow!

-Setting course for Cornwall, Jess.

-Meow!

-Hello, Ted.

-Morning, Arthur.

You're the first one here.

Well, Ted, you know what they say -

early bird catches the, erm...

most useful item.

Aye, well, it's all got to go.

-I need to make room for cousin Ned's engine.

-Hmm...

Interesting.

Fine old bit of machinery.

That's been in our family since way back, you know?

I'm going to use it to power the workshop.

What, this little thing?

No, no, no. The steam engine.

That ruler's all yours if you want it, Arthur.

Oh, right. Thanks, Ted.

-Nearly there, Jess. Prepare for landing.

-Meow!

So, this is Cornwall.

Meow!

Right.

-Ah. Ned's workshop, this way.

-Meow!

Er, no.

-This way!

-Meow!

Hold on, Jess. It's a bit...

-Whoa! Bumpy!

-Meeoow!

So, here's the workshop, but where's the...?

Ahoy there. You must be Pat.

Do you fancy a glass of lemon fizz?

-Er, well, I...

-'Course you do!

It comes in a flying glass.

The Jolly Hover Cup, I call it. Ha-ha-ha.

Whoa!

Or would you like to try my...

..binocular hat?

See whatever you want whenever you want.

Ned Glen's the name. You know Ted Glen, I dare say.

Ha-har! Well, I'm his cousin.

I know. You look just like him.

Do I? Well, I never.

Well, come on, then. Time for you to meet Old Betty.

-Old Betty?

-She is yonder in the workshop.

Great! I'll open the doors.

Doors? Where we're going, we don't need to open doors.

Ooh!

Meow!

Ah, Betty. I learned my inventing ways tinkering with her.

Many a Glen she's taught to twirl a...

-CRASH!

-..spanner.

She does look...lovely.

Cousin Ted will give her a good home. I'll miss the old girl.

-Oh...

-HE SNIFFS

Oh, there, there.

HE BLOWS HIS NOSE

Oh, thank you.

Er...you're welcome.

Hello, Chris.

Come all the way from the lighthouse, have you?

Yes. Wouldn't miss this for the world, Ted.

Squawk!

What have you got there, Macawber?

He does love shiny things.

That is the Ted Glen teaspoon disco.

Have a listen.

DISCO MUSIC PLAYS

I remember putting that beauty together.

Every funky tune spoon.

-Well, we'll have fun rocking out to that, won't we, Macawber?

-Squawk!

You'll give that rubber ball rocket launcher

-a good home too, Mrs Goggins.

-Oh...yes.

-Oh!

-Arrff-arrff!

-Squawk!

-Arrff!

Squawk!

Arf?

Squawk-squawk!

Arrff-arrff!

Oh, ohh. Oh!

I hope we'll be all right across that bumpy field.

Don't worry, Pat. She'll be fine.

She's lasted 100 years.

Now then, Ajay.

This extendable egg collector

will speed up my egg collecting no end.

Give over.

Anyone can see it's a mechanical cone picker.

Perfect for my roadblocks.

It's an egg collector!

It's a cone picker!

It's an egg collector!

Cone picker!

-Egg collector!

-Cone picker!

It's a... Ted, what is it?

Oh, I invented it so long ago I don't rightly know.

But... Ooh, I do remember what this one is.

The Ted Glen egg-warming water bottle.

Egg-warming?

Oh, aye. It's just the right shape, you see,

for putting under a chicken's bottom.

Helps them lay eggs quicker.

-Perfect. Thanks.

-Wh-wh-whoa!

Yes, thanks, Ted.

You're welcome.

Hey. There's not much left.

Bye.

Oh, dear.

CRASH! DING!

CRASH! DING!

-Uh-oh, Jess. I don't like the sound of that.

-Meow!

Oh, no!

BUZZ!

-Hello?

-Hi, Pat.

-Everything going smoothly?

-Er, not too bad, Ben. Must go. Bye.

-Old Betty could do with losing a bit of weight.

-Meow.

Wow!

All right there?

Saw you getting into trouble with my binocular hat.

-Meow?

-Goodness! Ned, are those...?

Jet pants? 'Course they are.

Come on. They'll help us get Betty back on the trailer.

Oh, arr...

She's an hefty bit of ironwork, if I say so myself.

Phew! Thanks, Ned.

You're welcome, Pat.

Least I could do to send Old Betty to her new home.

Come on, Jess. Let's get this special delivery back on track.

-Goodbye to you now, my dear.

-HE SNIFFS

Well, well, well, every last bit gone.

You've got a nice, clear workshop too.

You must be chuffed to bits.

Aye...

I suppose so.

Ah! Here you are, Ted.

Old Betty, all the way from your cousin Ned.

Oh, thanks, Pat.

You can put her in there.

Oh...

There's plenty of room.

Wow! I've never seen your workshop so empty.

You must be ever so pleased.

Aye, but...

Oh, it's not the same if there's nowt to fix.

I don't know what I'm going to do with myself.

Hey, maybe Old Betty will cheer you up.

Aye. Maybe.

Let's see if she'll power my workshop.

Oh, no!

-Meow...

-I'm so sorry, Ted.

It was a bit of a bumpy ride from cousin Ned's.

-So I see.

-I don't think she'll be able to power the workshop.

No, Pat, she won't.

Not for weeks.

Months. Maybe a year.

-Oh, no!

-Not without some serious work.

Ho-ho! Champion!

-Eh?

-Oh, thanks, Pat.

You've given me just what I needed -

something to tinker with again.

Er...you're welcome.

Ho-ho-ho. Look at all these lovely nuts and bolts.

Oh, and them ball bearings are absolutely fantastic.
