0:01:35 > 0:01:38Ah, thank you. I needed that.
0:01:38 > 0:01:42Thirsty work being a postman on a day like this.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45Now, these are for the Station Cafe
0:01:45 > 0:01:48and there's Dr Gilbertson's magazine to deliver.
0:01:48 > 0:01:53- Right you are, Mrs Goggins.- Are you going to the picnic this afternoon?
0:01:53 > 0:01:58At Ted Glen's? I hope so - if I get this lot delivered in time.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01- Good luck, Pat.- Cheerio.
0:02:03 > 0:02:05Off we go, Jess.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08Miaow!
0:02:14 > 0:02:18- Here's the post, Nisha. - Thank you, Pat,
0:02:18 > 0:02:24- Have you much more to deliver?- Yes. Poor Jess - it's too hot for him.
0:02:24 > 0:02:27Mmm. They look good.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30Pat, they're for the picnic at Ted Glen's.
0:02:30 > 0:02:35Come on, then, Jess. The sooner we get these letters delivered,
0:02:35 > 0:02:40the sooner we'll be able to find a shady spot and relax at the picnic.
0:02:42 > 0:02:47- I think you're on your own today, Pat.- Ah, well, cheerio.
0:02:49 > 0:02:54< Pat! Before you go, could you take this over to Ted Glen?
0:02:54 > 0:02:59- He phoned this morning for sugar. - What does he want all that for?
0:02:59 > 0:03:03He's built an ice-cream making machine.
0:03:03 > 0:03:07- He's promised all the children ice cream this afternoon.- Ice cream?
0:03:07 > 0:03:12That sounds good. No problem. Ted's house is next on my round.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17TED WHISTLES
0:03:25 > 0:03:27That's it.
0:03:27 > 0:03:32Now, then, let's put some mixture in and give it a test run.
0:03:42 > 0:03:45Now, then, where's the lead?
0:03:45 > 0:03:49- What's he doing? - It's an ice-cream maker.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52He's going to make us ice cream.
0:03:52 > 0:03:55I love ice cream. What's your favourite flavour?
0:03:55 > 0:04:01- Chocolate.- I like blackcurrant. Do you think it's ready yet?
0:04:02 > 0:04:07This should work. Just plug it in and switch...
0:04:07 > 0:04:09Oh!
0:04:12 > 0:04:15Are you all right, Mr Glen?
0:04:15 > 0:04:17Aye, lad.
0:04:17 > 0:04:22Nowt to worry about. Be up and running in no time.
0:04:23 > 0:04:27Looks like we'll have to wait for the ice cream.
0:04:27 > 0:04:31- Let's see what other things we can find to put in it.- Good idea.
0:04:32 > 0:04:37Hm. Electric's gone. NOW what am I going to use to power it?
0:04:44 > 0:04:47- Pat.- Ah. Oh.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50Just the bloke I was hoping to see.
0:04:50 > 0:04:54Hello, Ted. Here's your sugar. How's the ice cream going?
0:04:54 > 0:04:59I've had a spot of bother with the electric. I reckon you can help.
0:04:59 > 0:05:04- Of course. What do you want me to do?- My power supply's broken.
0:05:04 > 0:05:08I thought we could use your van to power the ice-cream maker.
0:05:08 > 0:05:13Well, I don't know. I've got to finish my deliveries.
0:05:13 > 0:05:17- It won't take long. - Oh, all right, then.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20Here you are.
0:05:20 > 0:05:25- Thanks, Mrs Thompson, these'll make great ice cream.- Who has ice cream?
0:05:25 > 0:05:31Ted Glen's made an ice-cream maker. We're collecting things for it.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34I know what's good in ice cream - cherries!
0:05:34 > 0:05:37Reverend Timms has a cherry tree.
0:05:37 > 0:05:41- Let's ask him if we can have some. - Good idea.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44- Bye, Mrs Thompson.- Bye, Mum.
0:05:55 > 0:05:59- That should do it. - I'll go and start the van.
0:05:59 > 0:06:01Give me a shout when you're ready.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10- Ready, Ted?- Ready!
0:06:10 > 0:06:13ENGINE STARTS
0:06:14 > 0:06:16The lid! Hang on, Pat!
0:06:19 > 0:06:21Stop the van a minute.
0:06:21 > 0:06:25What was that? Shall I give it a bit more power?
0:06:28 > 0:06:30Pat! Turn it off!
0:06:36 > 0:06:41Oi! What's the idea? Where did that come from?
0:06:44 > 0:06:49- Sorry, Ted. I couldn't hear you with the engine on.- Too much power, Pat.
0:06:49 > 0:06:56The ice cream's gone everywhere! I don't know, it's... Oh, 'eck!
0:06:56 > 0:06:59Using a dangerous machine close to a public highway,
0:06:59 > 0:07:03obstructing an officer during his work,
0:07:03 > 0:07:07throwing missiles at an officer of the law -
0:07:07 > 0:07:10it's a very serious...
0:07:10 > 0:07:13Mm. Strawberry.
0:07:13 > 0:07:18Um, very serious. This, er, won't do. Er, won't do at all.
0:07:18 > 0:07:22Mm! Tasty!
0:07:22 > 0:07:24Strawberry ice cream, PC Selby.
0:07:24 > 0:07:27Ted's made an ice-cream machine.
0:07:27 > 0:07:30Pat's helping me to get it running.
0:07:30 > 0:07:34- I can see that.- His van was a bit too powerful for the job.
0:07:34 > 0:07:39- I can see that as well. - We'll have to try something else.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43I know! PC Selby's bicycle.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46You can't use that! That's an official vehicle!
0:07:46 > 0:07:50You wouldn't want the children to go without ice cream!
0:07:50 > 0:07:55They're all looking forward to it. It's the picnic in a few hours.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57Hmm.
0:08:00 > 0:08:05Here you are, my dear. Cherry ice cream, eh? Marvellous idea.
0:08:05 > 0:08:09Thank you, Reverend Timms. See you later.
0:08:10 > 0:08:14Whole nuts are delicious in ice cream and highly nutritious too.
0:08:14 > 0:08:18That's great. Thanks, Dr Gilbertson.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20Mr Pringle gave me some toffees!
0:08:20 > 0:08:26- Let's try the cafe.- Do you think the ice-cream machine's ready yet?
0:08:26 > 0:08:28Blimey. Oh.
0:08:29 > 0:08:32This is hard work.
0:08:34 > 0:08:37Why don't one of you two have a go?
0:08:37 > 0:08:41It's not getting cold at all. We need more power.
0:08:41 > 0:08:44It'll never be done at this rate.
0:08:44 > 0:08:48And it's perfect ice-cream weather.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51Just look at that sun.
0:08:51 > 0:08:57The sun! That's it! Ted, have you still got those solar panels?
0:08:57 > 0:09:01- They're out the back.- Solar panels make electricity from the sun.
0:09:01 > 0:09:05We could use them to power the ice cream maker.
0:09:05 > 0:09:09Good idea, Pat. I wish I'D thought of that.
0:09:09 > 0:09:12Phew! So do I.
0:09:12 > 0:09:17- What have you found, Mira? - Bananas and chocolate.
0:09:17 > 0:09:23- Brilliant! Everyone can have a different flavour.- What about Jess?
0:09:23 > 0:09:28- Maybe we could get Ted to make some ice cream for him as well.- Miaow.
0:09:28 > 0:09:32I wonder what flavour he'd like. Maybe banana.
0:09:32 > 0:09:38- Don't be silly! Cats don't like bananas.- How about jelly?- Miaow.
0:09:38 > 0:09:42I know what he WOULD like. Come on.
0:09:42 > 0:09:44Miaow.
0:09:46 > 0:09:50- That should do it. - Let's go and test it out.
0:09:50 > 0:09:53What do you want them for?
0:09:53 > 0:09:58It's, er, a surprise. Thanks, Mrs Goggins.
0:10:00 > 0:10:03That's the last of the strawberries.
0:10:03 > 0:10:09- Let's hope it works.- How long does it take?- About half an hour, I think.
0:10:09 > 0:10:13That gives me just enough time to finish my deliveries.
0:10:13 > 0:10:17- I'll give you a hand. - What about the machine?
0:10:17 > 0:10:19Maybe PC Selby could be in charge.
0:10:19 > 0:10:23It's cooler in here than outside on your bike.
0:10:23 > 0:10:27Um, I suppose I could keep an official eye on it,
0:10:27 > 0:10:31make sure no-one steals the ice cream.
0:10:40 > 0:10:44Everything in order. Maybe just a little rest.
0:10:44 > 0:10:4740 winks.
0:10:50 > 0:10:52HE SNORES LOUDLY
0:11:20 > 0:11:23- Bye, Mrs Goggins. - Cheerio, Mrs Goggins.
0:11:24 > 0:11:27Finished. How are we doing for time?
0:11:27 > 0:11:32Grand. Ice cream should be ready when we get back.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53Oh, dear!
0:11:56 > 0:11:58Oh, no!
0:11:58 > 0:12:01My ice cream!
0:12:01 > 0:12:05And next time it'll be a parking ticket...
0:12:05 > 0:12:07Oh, no!
0:12:10 > 0:12:15- Never mind. We can clear this up and start again.- Best get a move on.
0:12:15 > 0:12:18It's not long till the picnic starts.
0:12:20 > 0:12:25- We've got heaps of stuff.- Yeah we've got something for everyone.
0:12:25 > 0:12:27Miaow.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32That should definitely work this time.
0:12:32 > 0:12:37Now, then, cream...sugar...
0:12:40 > 0:12:43- Oh, no!- What's wrong, Ted?
0:12:43 > 0:12:48- No more strawberries! What are we going to do?- Don't worry, Mr Glen.
0:12:48 > 0:12:51We've got loads of ingredients.
0:12:51 > 0:12:55- Like bananas. - And cherries.- And walnuts.
0:12:55 > 0:13:00By gum, I reckon you kids have just about saved the day.
0:13:00 > 0:13:04Right, which flavour first?
0:13:04 > 0:13:08- (I like toffee myself. - It's cherries I really like.
0:13:08 > 0:13:12(What about toffee, then? Let's do banana and toffee.)
0:13:12 > 0:13:15Er, banana and toffee first, please.
0:13:15 > 0:13:18- Right you are.- What's in here?
0:13:18 > 0:13:22No, Dad, that one's a surprise,
0:13:22 > 0:13:25for someone very special.
0:13:36 > 0:13:40Cherry flavour. Delicious!
0:13:40 > 0:13:45- Walnut and chocolate. Would you like to try some, Pat?- No, thanks.
0:13:45 > 0:13:48I'm waiting for the special surprise flavour.
0:13:48 > 0:13:52Here you are, young man.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54Thanks.
0:13:54 > 0:13:56- It's ready!- Ah.
0:13:56 > 0:13:59- THIS is the one- I- wanted to taste.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02- But, Dad... - The special surprise one.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10Euch! Yuk!
0:14:11 > 0:14:14It's not meant for people, Dad.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17It's a special ice cream...
0:14:17 > 0:14:20- for Jess.- Miaow!
0:14:20 > 0:14:23Sardine flavour!
