-Laugh if you wish, Hacker.

-Ha-ha-ha-ha!

0:00:370:00:41

And a one, two, three, four...

0:00:410:00:46

Ooh! I'm bushed.

0:00:490:00:51

I'll say one thing, this keep-fit

0:00:510:00:53

does give you an appetite.

0:00:530:00:55

Ah, my all-time favourite start to the day. After exercise, of course.

0:00:550:01:02

-SHOUTS:

-THAT'S MINE!

0:01:020:01:04

-All right, sorry! Have you opened up today's paper?

-Yeah.

0:01:040:01:08

"Fierce flu attacks Pilbury."

0:01:080:01:11

-Well, there's only one way to avoid catching that.

-What's that?

0:01:110:01:16

We stay indoors until it's over,

0:01:160:01:18

we don't go outside for anyone or anything.

0:01:180:01:20

-Deal?

-Deal?

0:01:200:01:22

PHONE RINGS

0:01:220:01:23

-Hello, Max? It's Max. We're on our way.

-You said we shouldn't go out!

0:01:230:01:29

Argh...

0:01:290:01:31

BLOWS NOSE

0:01:340:01:37

-Hello, Max.

-Ah, Digby. I think I'm coming down with this flu bug.

0:01:370:01:43

Don't worry, I won't let it interfere

0:01:430:01:45

with my usual sunny disposition.

0:01:450:01:48

Now then, I've got an assignment for you.

0:01:480:01:52

BLOWS NOSE

0:01:520:01:53

-So, what is this special assignment, Max?

-I want you to deliver this.

0:02:050:02:08

-Deliver a paper?

-The usual man's got flu.

-No, I'm sorry, sir.

0:02:080:02:13

We won't do it.

0:02:130:02:15

-Ha!

-Oh, well.

0:02:150:02:17

I suppose I could deliver it to the Skinny Mallard myself.

0:02:170:02:22

Get something to eat, maybe. Might be good for my cold.

0:02:220:02:25

Wait, did you say Skinny Mallard?

0:02:260:02:29

-Lester Lukenal's restaurant.

-Who?

0:02:290:02:32

-Pilbury's top chef.

-That's the man.

-I'll go! Please let me go.

0:02:320:02:36

I've also fancied myself as a top-flight restaurant critic...

0:02:360:02:41

MAX CHORTLES

0:02:410:02:44

You do cheer my up sometimes, Digby. Not often...

0:02:440:02:48

-But listen, you can deliver the paper if you really want to...

-Yeah.

0:02:480:02:51

..on one condition.

0:02:510:02:53

You forget all this restaurant critic nonsense.

0:02:530:02:56

Yes, Max.

0:02:560:02:58

The Skinny Mallard restaurant.

0:03:030:03:07

We'll remember this in years to come, Hacker.

0:03:070:03:09

-This is where I started my new career as a food critic.

-But Max said...

0:03:090:03:13

Don't worry, Hacker. I've got it all worked out.

0:03:130:03:16

I'll sweet-talk Lester into letting me sample his food

0:03:160:03:20

and then I'll write a review, and when Max sees that -

0:03:200:03:23

-Digby Digworth, food critic!

-Tell me that again.

0:03:230:03:27

I'll food-talk Max into letting me sample his sweet.

0:03:270:03:30

Lester will right a review...

0:03:300:03:32

and when you see that... it's happy days.

0:03:320:03:36

What could go wrong?

0:03:360:03:38

Genius(!)

0:03:380:03:40

Ohhh.

0:03:400:03:42

You as well?

0:03:440:03:46

Flu?!

0:03:460:03:47

Ohh. No, of course I understand,

0:03:470:03:51

but at this rate, I won't have any staff working today.

0:03:510:03:54

And today of all days.

0:03:540:03:57

They're coming to judge... the Pudding of the Year competition.

0:03:570:04:01

Can anything else go wrong?

0:04:020:04:06

-Hello!

-Hiya!

0:04:060:04:10

Shop!

0:04:120:04:13

Ooh!

0:04:160:04:17

Hm-hm-hm!

0:04:180:04:20

Duck!

0:04:200:04:21

No, no.

0:04:210:04:23

HACKER LAUGHS Hacker!

0:04:230:04:25

-Hello! Anybody home?

-Just a minute.

0:04:290:04:35

-Coo-ee... Oh!

-Argh!

-Mr Lukenal!

0:04:380:04:42

What do you think you are doing?

0:04:420:04:44

Are you some sort of idiot or just plain stupid?

0:04:440:04:47

-Tough choice.

-Let me help you up.

0:04:470:04:51

Ohhhh!

0:04:510:04:52

Will you get out of my kitchen, please!

0:04:520:04:55

No, no. You don't understand. I'm here to...

0:04:550:04:58

I don't care who you are.

0:04:580:05:00

I am expecting a very important visit...

0:05:000:05:04

You're not here for the pudding?

0:05:050:05:09

I'm here for whatever's on the menu. Digby D Digworth is ready to tuck in!

0:05:090:05:13

I'm so sorry. I didn't realise.

0:05:130:05:17

It is my pleasure to welcome you to my kitchen.

0:05:180:05:23

-Ooh! I must say, it all looks very scientific in here.

-Ah!

0:05:230:05:28

Careful. Liquid nitrogen.

0:05:280:05:31

I can use that to freeze any of my ingredients to minus 210, you know.

0:05:310:05:36

Hmm.

0:05:360:05:38

Agh!

0:05:380:05:39

Oooh...

0:05:390:05:41

Yeah, that's certainly very... very cold.

0:05:410:05:44

And over here is my radiation exchange oven.

0:05:440:05:49

This can reach temperatures of over 400 degrees.

0:05:490:05:54

I'll take your word for that.

0:05:540:05:56

But...I sidetrack.

0:05:560:05:59

That is not why you have come here today, is it?

0:05:590:06:04

HE GROANS

0:06:040:06:06

Here it is.

0:06:060:06:09

My entry for the Pudding of the Year competition.

0:06:090:06:14

Prepare yourself for the Colossus of Pilbury!

0:06:140:06:19

DIGBY GASPS

0:06:190:06:21

It's a giant gingerbread man!

0:06:210:06:23

LESTER CHUCKLES

0:06:230:06:25

Just smell the sweetness of the spices...

0:06:250:06:28

HE SNIFFS

0:06:280:06:30

-Hmm...

-A subtle blend of the juiciest ginger

0:06:300:06:32

with some of my secret ingredients.

0:06:320:06:35

Hmm-mm!

0:06:350:06:38

This, Mr Digworth, is the most sumptuous epicural delight

0:06:380:06:43

-ever created!

-Hmm-mm-mm!

0:06:430:06:47

And I can't wait for you to taste it.

0:06:470:06:51

-Neither can I.

-But...

0:06:510:06:54

not yet.

0:06:540:06:55

-Ah!

-If you take a seat next door,

0:06:550:06:57

I shall prepare the Colossus in all his perfection.

0:06:570:07:03

PHONE RINGS

0:07:030:07:05

I do hope that is not another one of my staff ringing in sick.

0:07:050:07:09

Ohhh!

0:07:110:07:13

That is gorgeous!

0:07:130:07:17

What do you think of this, Hacker?

0:07:170:07:20

It's a big gingerbread man.

0:07:200:07:23

Ah, yes, but...

0:07:230:07:25

it's a subtle blend of...

0:07:250:07:30

things.

0:07:300:07:32

-Really(?)

-Hmm.

0:07:320:07:33

This is why I am destined to live my life as a food critic.

0:07:330:07:36

This pudding is perfection...

0:07:360:07:40

although I do think this eye is a little lopsided,

0:07:400:07:45

and I'm sure Lester wouldn't want that.

0:07:450:07:49

PLOP!

0:07:490:07:50

-Oh, no.

-It's not perfect now.

-I'm supposed to be making my name

0:07:520:07:57

as a restaurant reviewer, not a dessert destroyer.

0:07:570:07:59

What am I going to do?

0:07:590:08:01

-What am I going to do?!

-Fix the pudding.

0:08:010:08:04

That is totally stupid!

0:08:040:08:06

That's a good idea, actually. Yeah.

0:08:060:08:08

Yes, the Pudding of the Year competition,

0:08:080:08:11

and your judge will be arriving... when?

0:08:110:08:15

Are you quite sure about that?

0:08:150:08:17

Yes, that's VERY interesting.

0:08:190:08:25

Ahhh. That was a close call.

0:08:270:08:31

-<

-Mr Digworth!

0:08:310:08:33

Lester will never know.

0:08:330:08:34

SPLAT!

0:08:340:08:36

Oh, budgies!

0:08:360:08:38

-Ohhhh!

-Oh.

0:08:380:08:40

Mr...Digworth.

0:08:460:08:48

You are not a judge for the Pudding of the Year competition.

0:08:480:08:53

Would you mind telling me

0:08:530:08:56

what you are doing in MY kitchen?

0:08:560:09:00

-Yes. Well, firstly, to deliver this...

-Hiya!

0:09:000:09:03

Ya-a-agh!

0:09:030:09:04

What is that?

0:09:040:09:06

-It's a newspaper.

-Yeah.

-Not that,

0:09:060:09:09

the hairy monstrosity attached to it!

0:09:090:09:12

That is not a hairy monstrosity. That is my aide and assistant.

0:09:120:09:17

It's a health hazard.

0:09:170:09:20

Out! Out!

0:09:200:09:22

PHONE RINGS

0:09:220:09:23

I want both of you gone when I get back.

0:09:230:09:27

Ohh...

0:09:310:09:34

Maybe Lester won't notice the head's missing.

0:09:350:09:38

-Oh, yes, he will.

-Ohh.

0:09:380:09:40

-But even if he does, he wouldn't tell Max.

-Yes, he will.

0:09:410:09:44

-Max would understand, though?

-Oh, no, he won't.

0:09:440:09:47

Ohhh.

0:09:470:09:49

Don't tell me - you've got the flu as well(!)

0:09:500:09:54

No, no. That's quite all right.

0:09:540:09:56

I can run the whole place on my own(!)

0:09:560:10:00

-Um...

-You again?

0:10:000:10:03

-Yeah!

-Time for the police.

-No, I'll only be a minute.

0:10:030:10:08

I've come to make a small confession.

0:10:080:10:10

Yes, yes. You're not a judge, you're a...delivery man.

0:10:100:10:14

-Well, actually, I'm a reporter.

-A reporter, eh?

0:10:140:10:17

Really? A reporter?

0:10:190:10:22

-With the Pilbury Post.

-Mr Digworth, I suppose I was a little offhand

0:10:220:10:28

to you earlier, being stressed with my staff falling ill

0:10:280:10:33

and presenting the Colossus for the competition.

0:10:330:10:36

Ah! About the Colossus...

0:10:360:10:38

My finest achievement. The only one of its kind.

0:10:380:10:43

You should be around for the judging, hmm?

0:10:430:10:46

Ooh! Thank you. I have always been interested in food.

0:10:460:10:49

-HE GULPS

-You're a f-f-food critic?

0:10:490:10:55

Well, hopefully.

0:10:550:10:57

Mr Digworth, allow me to prepare the greatest meal

0:10:570:11:02

that you have ever tasted.

0:11:020:11:04

-Ohh.

-You won't write anything bad, will you?

0:11:040:11:09

No! But first, let me tell you about...

0:11:090:11:12

All on the house, of course.

0:11:120:11:14

Really? Lead the way!

0:11:140:11:16

BOTH CHUCKLE

0:11:160:11:20

Just take a seat. Not literally, of course!

0:11:220:11:26

BOTH LAUGH

0:11:260:11:29

Ah!

0:11:290:11:30

That one!

0:11:380:11:40

I'll get you a menu.

0:11:410:11:44

He-he. Psst!

0:11:450:11:47

-Hacker!

-What did he say?

0:11:470:11:49

Ah!

0:11:490:11:50

You didn't tell him, did you?

0:11:500:11:52

No. B-B-But only because I've got a better plan.

0:11:520:11:55

I'll stay here and have a light lunch and keep Lester distracted,

0:11:550:11:59

while you pop the head back on.

0:11:590:12:02

I've got an even better plan. I'll have lunch out here

0:12:020:12:05

and you can sort out the ginger fellow.

0:12:050:12:08

But, Hacker, I have to eat the food myself

0:12:080:12:11

if I'm going to write about it for Max!

0:12:110:12:14

My first review.

0:12:140:12:16

But when I'm famous we'll have slap-up meals all the time.

0:12:160:12:20

-Promise?

-Of course. Hurry up he'll be back soon

0:12:200:12:24

and remember the head's in a bag on the shelf.

0:12:240:12:27

I'll keep him out the kitchen till you're done. Go!

0:12:270:12:31

I do a bit of cooking myself, you know, Lester.

0:12:310:12:35

Really? Fascinating.

0:12:350:12:37

Not up to your standard but then I do have to work for a living.

0:12:370:12:41

The menu.

0:12:410:12:43

-ALARM BELL RINGS

-Ahh!

0:12:490:12:51

HE SIGHS

0:12:570:12:58

Well, I'm torn.

0:12:580:13:01

Let me help you decide.

0:13:010:13:03

It's a toss up between the soup and the prawns,

0:13:030:13:07

herrings, the pate and the omelette. Then there's lamb, chicken,

0:13:070:13:13

oh, the trout sounds nice. The pork... Oh, lobster,

0:13:130:13:18

then of course there's the noodles.

0:13:180:13:20

OK, I'll leave you to choose and I'll go and finish the Colossus.

0:13:200:13:25

-What, in the kitchen?

-Yes.

0:13:250:13:28

No wait, I've chosen.

0:13:280:13:30

And what would sir like?

0:13:310:13:34

Um, I would like the...

0:13:340:13:38

prawns...

0:13:380:13:41

and then the trout.

0:13:420:13:45

Excellent choice.

0:13:470:13:48

Where you going?

0:13:480:13:50

To the kitchen to get your trout.

0:13:500:13:55

I've gone off trout.

0:13:550:13:57

Ooh!

0:14:000:14:01

NERVOUSLY: Umm...

0:14:100:14:12

I would like the lobster. Where's that from?

0:14:120:14:18

The Scottish Isles.

0:14:180:14:20

Says here the lobster's fresh.

0:14:200:14:23

Is that fresher than the trout?

0:14:250:14:27

Mr Digwood!

0:14:270:14:30

Allow me to choose something for you.

0:14:310:14:35

No, wait!

0:14:360:14:37

Uh-oh!

0:14:380:14:40

Oh, Hacker...

0:14:410:14:44

Calm, Lester. Calm.

0:14:460:14:50

Phew! Now...

0:14:560:14:58

Ooh!

0:14:580:15:00

Chilled tomato and wild fennel soup.

0:15:000:15:03

Enjoy.

0:15:030:15:05

Smells delicious.

0:15:050:15:07

It's an epi...dural delight.

0:15:070:15:12

Indeed.

0:15:120:15:14

Now, if you'll excuse me, I really must go and attend to my Colossus.

0:15:140:15:19

No, wait!

0:15:190:15:20

Where does this dish come from?

0:15:220:15:24

It's a lovely dish.

0:15:240:15:26

It's from a shop in Pilbury.

0:15:260:15:29

Anything else?

0:15:290:15:30

No.

0:15:300:15:32

Yes!

0:15:320:15:35

Um...

0:15:350:15:36

GULP

0:15:420:15:43

HE PANTS

0:15:430:15:46

TOWER SHAKES

0:15:500:15:53

HE PANTS

0:15:590:16:02

Ooh.

0:16:070:16:08

-POTS AND PANS CLATTER

-What was that?

0:16:080:16:10

I didn't hear anything.

0:16:100:16:12

Ahhh!

0:16:120:16:15

It sounds like someone messing in my kitchen. Where is your dog?

0:16:170:16:23

He's house-trained he wouldn't be messing in your kitchen.

0:16:230:16:27

Don't worry, Hacker, I won't let you down!

0:16:270:16:30

He won't get his hands on you.

0:16:300:16:32

Although that does smell rather good...

0:16:350:16:39

And I do have a review to write.

0:16:390:16:42

So just a... Just a quick taste...

0:16:420:16:46

I know you're in here.

0:16:490:16:52

Come out with your paws up.

0:16:520:16:56

Right...

0:17:000:17:01

I'll get you, you...

0:17:100:17:11

That was really good.

0:17:170:17:21

Now, where was I?

Hacker!

0:17:250:17:27

LAUGHS MENACINGLY

0:17:280:17:30

PHONE RINGS

0:17:350:17:37

He-he-he! Phew!

0:17:400:17:42

Oh no, I've got myself stuck!

0:17:450:17:48

Hello?

0:17:490:17:51

Hello?

0:17:510:17:52

Hacker? Hacker, where are you?

0:17:530:17:56

Over 'ere.

0:17:560:17:57

Skinny Mallard restaurant?

0:17:570:17:59

-What are you doing there?

-I'm stuck!

0:17:590:18:02

Anyone there?

0:18:020:18:03

-Yes, I'm stuck.

-Yeah.

-You're stuck? Stuck where?

0:18:030:18:08

In traffic.

0:18:080:18:10

Don't you worry, I'll have you out here in a jiffy.

0:18:100:18:14

-One big tug should do it.

-Not the ears!

0:18:140:18:16

All right, I'm sorry.

0:18:160:18:18

It's a very bad connection.

0:18:200:18:22

THEY STRAIN

0:18:220:18:24

CRASH!

0:18:240:18:26

Hello?

0:18:260:18:27

Let's get that gingerbread man fixed so I can get back to my meal.

0:18:360:18:39

Here, you'll like this. Ready?

0:18:390:18:42

The soup was delicious.

0:18:440:18:46

A tangy sensation, of fruit and veg,

0:18:460:18:50

it was cooked really good. I like soup.

0:18:500:18:54

-Nice work, Hacker.

-Yeah, not bad.

0:18:570:19:00

What are you doing in my kitchen?

0:19:000:19:05

Um... I came to tell you how nice your soup was. Listen to this.

0:19:050:19:10

It was a tangy sensation, of fruit and veg...

0:19:100:19:14

-And your dog!

-He doesn't like veg, he's more of a meat guy.

-Yeah.

0:19:140:19:19

Out!

0:19:190:19:20

Well?!

0:19:220:19:23

Move it!

0:19:230:19:24

BELL RINGS

0:19:240:19:27

No, wait. If that's the judge she can't see you. Don't touch anything.

0:19:270:19:34

Anything!

0:19:340:19:35

BOTH: Ooooooh!

0:19:400:19:42

I'm still worried about this eye though. Just a little...

0:19:440:19:49

Oh, Digby!

0:19:500:19:51

-Oh! Double budgies!

-Oh, Hacker,

0:19:540:19:56

when Lester sees this I'll be banned from every restaurant in Pilbury.

0:19:560:20:02

If not the world!

0:20:020:20:05

No. We can do this.

0:20:050:20:10

There's still time. We can fix it, we're not beaten yet!

0:20:100:20:14

Yes we are.

0:20:140:20:16

Never say never, Hacker.

0:20:160:20:17

-I know you can do it.

-Me?

0:20:170:20:20

Yeah, you've got little paws, better for fiddly little work.

0:20:200:20:24

Oh, yeah!

0:20:240:20:27

Ah, Mrs Avery,

0:20:270:20:30

this is such an honour.

0:20:300:20:33

Please, follow me.

0:20:360:20:38

How's it going?

0:20:420:20:43

It's right foot's missing.

0:20:430:20:45

-Really?

-Yeah, I don't know where it could have gone.

0:20:480:20:51

-Must be on the floor somewhere.

-Yeah, it must be.

0:20:510:20:56

Take a seat.

0:20:570:20:58

I'll be back with you in a moment.

0:21:010:21:05

Hacker,

0:21:070:21:09

you're a star!

0:21:090:21:10

Well, it's the best I can do.

0:21:100:21:14

Stay in here, be quiet and I'll have a word with your editor later.

0:21:150:21:21

Come on!

0:21:290:21:30

I think we got away with that, Hacker. Do you think they'll notice?

0:21:340:21:39

Nah.

0:21:390:21:40

I give you, the Colossus of Pilbury.

0:21:400:21:44

Nooooo!

0:21:480:21:50

I think they noticed.

0:21:500:21:53

Yeah.

0:21:530:21:55

My baby!

0:21:550:21:57

My creation!

0:21:570:22:00

Don't upset yourself, Lester, it is only gingerbread.

0:22:000:22:05

Hey, smile!

0:22:070:22:08

Nice day for it.

0:22:080:22:10

Ahhh!

0:22:100:22:13

-Was it something I said?

-I don't suppose there's any chance

0:22:130:22:17

of my main course, is there? I still have a review to write!

0:22:170:22:21

Ahhhh!

0:22:230:22:25

Let's have a look. Another award-winning front page no doubt.

0:22:280:22:32

What a pudding?

0:22:330:22:35

"Pilbury's premier restaurant wrecked by local reporter.

0:22:350:22:39

"Lester Lukenal blames The Post!"

0:22:390:22:42

DIGBY DIGWOOD!

0:22:420:22:46

Digby, this way!
