Hey, look at the time!

-I'm gonna be late for work.

-Julian will be late for...

-Come on, Dad! I'll be late for school.

-OK, Julian, don't worry,

I'm on my way.

SHE LAUGHS See you both later.

-Bye!

-Bye, love!

Miaow!

Hold it.

-What's the trouble, Arthur?

-There's no trouble, that's the trouble.

-What do you mean?

-I've got nothing to do.

No-one really needs my help any more.

That's why I've asked for a new job with the Pencaster police.

-What?!

-Miaow!

-Oh! You mean you're leaving?

I'm expecting a call from Pencaster to say everything's going ahead.

Miaow!

Anyway, can't stand and chat. I'm sure you're busy.

Come on, now, move along, move along.

I can't imagine Greendale without PC Selby.

What about Lucy?

If her dad goes, she'll leave too.

What if we give him a big party? Then he'd see how much we need him.

That's a good idea, Julian.

I'll tell everyone on my rounds

and ask them to meet at the Green this afternoon for a PC Selby party.

Might as well go back to the car.

Maybe someone will have an emergency to report.

Sir, me and my dad met PC Selby this morning

and he's leaving Greendale to work in Pencaster.

ALL: Oh, no!

Lucy, is this true?

I wasn't supposed to say anything.

Don't worry, my dad's having a party for your dad

on the Green after school.

So we can tell him how much we want him to stay.

Mr Pringle, can we write a song to sing for PC Selby?

Why, I think that's a great idea, Julian.

-Great!

-Good idea!

-Brilliant.

-SPRINGS SQUEAKING

-Oh!

You all right, Ted?

Eh? Oh, sorry, Pat. Just mending Dr Gilbertson's car.

-Morning, Pat!

-Hello, Ajay.

I'm glad you're both here. I need to talk to you about PC Selby.

-Eh?

-Eh?

-I think he's leaving Greendale.

-Miaow!

BOTH: Oh!

HE YAWNS No emergency calls, no nothing.

It'll be different in Pencaster. Robbers to chase, crimes to solve.

HE YAWNS AND SNORES

A party for PC Selby? That's a grand idea, Pat.

We could do with his help on Dr Gilbertson's car.

Why don't you give him a call, Ted? He's not busy.

Aye, I will. At least WE need him, eh, Pat?

THEY LAUGH

Right then, children, we'll listen to the songs

and decide which one's best for PC Selby.

Katy, Sarah...

This is a song for PC Selby.

# What we really really want What we really really want

# What we really really want What we really really want

# What we really really want... Policeman! Yeah! #

-CLAP! CLAP!

-That was...

well, that was very interesting.

Now then, who's next?

HE SNORES

ALARM RINGS

Oh! Eh? What's that? Hello?

'Calling, PC Selby. Calling PC Selby.

'Assistance required at Ted Glen's water mill. Over.'

Yes, of course. I'll be right over.

SIREN WAILS, TYRES SCREECH

Meee-h-h-h!

Oh, dear, we can't let PC Selby leave.

I'll get me sheep up to the top field

then come into Greendale and help with the party.

Thanks, Alf. See you later.

Bye, Pat.

A party is a lovely idea, Pat.

-We'll make some food and take it over to the Green.

-Thanks, love.

Thanks, Nisha. Bye!

# Naw, naw, naw, naw! In your police car

# Naw, naw, naw, naw! In your police car

# Naw, naw, naw, naw! You got a police car

# Naw, naw, naw, naw! Police car, yeah! #

Check it!

-Miaow!

-A party?

Good idea, Pat. See you there.

See you later, Reverend.

Move, move!

Thank goodness you came along. I can't get my sheep into this field.

Don't worry, Alf. I'll give you a hand.

Oi!

Come back here, you silly sheep.

Baa-aaa!

Ouf!

# Naw, naw, naw, naw! Naw, naw, naw, naw!

# Naw, naw, naw, naw!

# Naw, naw, naw, naw! #

Sorry, sir, we haven't really got any words yet.

Never mind, boys. It was a good effort.

Has anyone else got a song to sing?

Well, Jess, now everyone knows about PC Selby's party,

-I hope we can convince him to stay in Greendale.

-Miaow!

-Thanks, Arthur. I don't know what I'd have done without you.

-Well,

all in a day's work, Alf.

Now then, if you'll excuse me. Bye.

# You're always on your way

# Stay with us We really need you here

# What would Greendale be without you near? #

ALL: Hurrah!

I think we've found our song. Don't you, everyone?

-ALL: Yeah!

-Great!

Right, Pumpkin, that's you groomed for the day.

Ouch!

Ow!

Ohh! Ouch!

Oh, dear!

I think I'd better call Dr Gilbertson.

Hello?

Oh, hello, Amy.

What?

I'll be there as soon as I...

Oh, dear! I've just remembered, I haven't got my car today.

I know.

I'll call PC Selby. This IS an emergency.

'Calling PC Selby. Calling PC Selby.

'Dr Gilbertson requires emergency help. Over.'

PC Selby here.

I'm on my way.

-Coo-ee!

-Hello, love.

What time is PC Selby getting here?

Oh, no! I was so busy telling everyone else about the party

that I forgot to tell him.

Oh, Pat!

Don't worry, he'll be at Ted's... I hope!

SIREN WAILS

Thank you so much, Arthur. I don't know what we'd do without you.

Well, all in a day's work, Sylvia.

There, nothing broken. You should be back to normal in a few days.

Thanks, Doctor. And thank you, PC Selby.

-What would we have done without you?

-Um...

A-hem...er...

-Fancy forgetting to invite PC Selby to his own party, Jess.

-Miaow!

Was that him?

Miaow!

-Come on.

-Miaow!

# What would Greendale be without you near? #

-It just needs something at the end to finish it off.

-I know!

-Sarah, can you still do that funny deep voice?

-What, this?

DEEP VOICE: Please don't go.

Come on, everyone. We'd better get to the Green or we'll be late.

Thanks again, Arthur.

I hope Ted mends my car soon.

Ted?!

I promised to help him mend your car this morning. I completely forgot.

Oh!

SIREN WAILS

-Oh, no! Not again, Jess!

-Miaow!

Where's he off to now?

Miaow!

-Arthur.

-Hello, Pat.

Sorry I'm late, Ted. I've been busy today. How can I be of service?

She just needs a clean and we're finished.

-Right you are. Come on, Pat.

-What?

Oh, OK.

Miaow!

Right, let's start her up.

Miaow!

Miaow!

CLUNK!

ENGINE RATTLES Oh, no!

Perhaps this needs a bit of detective work.

Hello, what's this?

-Oh!

-A bird's nest?

That's the last place we'd have looked. Thank goodness you were here.

Well...

Yes, well...

Actually, Arthur, I need your help at the Green.

The Green? Right you are, Pat. Let's go.

What's all this, then?

ALL: Surprise!

What's going on?

Well, Arthur, we just want you to know how much you mean to us

and how much we all need you.

Well, I, er...I suppose there have been a lot of people to help today.

Oh!

But I'm waiting for a call about my new job in Pencaster.

Oh, no!

Why don't you sing PC Selby your song, children?

One, two, three...

# Please don't go We need you every day

# If there's trouble You're always on your way

# Stay with us We really need to hear

# What would Greendale be without you near?

-DEEP VOICE:

-# Oh, please don't go. #

Hurrah! BLOWS NOSE

Well, Arthur, will you stay and be our policeman?

PHONE RINGS

Hello?

This is PC Selby.

Oh!

That's good news. I'm very happy to have been offered the job.

Oh, no!

Ohh!

But...I won't be able to take the job at Pencaster police station.

I'm needed too much here in Greendale. Goodbye.

Aaah!

Thanks, Dad!

No, thank YOU, Lucy.

And thank you too, Pat.

It's good to be needed.

But it's even more important to have friends.

ALL: Hurrah! Yeah!
