0:01:21 > 0:01:25Christmas is supposed to be a happy time -

0:01:25 > 0:01:28a time for friends to be together!

0:01:28 > 0:01:30But for one little penguin,

0:01:30 > 0:01:33Christmas wasn't looking very happy at all!

0:01:41 > 0:01:43Waaah!

0:01:43 > 0:01:47Penny the little Penguin had hurt her wing

0:01:47 > 0:01:51and now she had to do something that made her feel sad.

0:01:56 > 0:01:57Oh!

0:02:01 > 0:02:05Penny was writing to the Koala Brothers to tell them

0:02:05 > 0:02:08she wouldn't be coming to the outback for Christmas!

0:02:18 > 0:02:22Christmas just wouldn't be the same without Frank and Buster!

0:02:27 > 0:02:29PENNY SQUEAKS

0:02:29 > 0:02:34It looked like Penny was going to spend Christmas all alone.

0:02:34 > 0:02:38Unless someone, somewhere could help!

0:03:00 > 0:03:04Christmas was always the busiest time of year

0:03:04 > 0:03:06for everyone in the outback.

0:03:11 > 0:03:14It was such an exciting time for everyone.

0:03:14 > 0:03:18This year was going to be the most special Christmas ever!

0:03:40 > 0:03:41Hi!

0:03:41 > 0:03:44- Oh!- Ha-ha!

0:03:55 > 0:03:56THEY CHEER

0:03:56 > 0:04:01Hello, everyone. We've got an important announcement, haven't we?

0:04:01 > 0:04:03That's right, Frank!

0:04:03 > 0:04:06Ahem... We'd like to invite you all to the Homestead

0:04:06 > 0:04:11- for a Christmas Day celebration! - ALL:- Goodie! Hooray!

0:04:11 > 0:04:14And don't forget, Penny the Penguin

0:04:14 > 0:04:16is coming all the way from the South Pole!

0:04:16 > 0:04:20I can't wait to see her!

0:04:20 > 0:04:22Frank, there's someone missing.

0:04:22 > 0:04:25You're right. Where's George?

0:04:25 > 0:04:28I think he's in his post office.

0:04:38 > 0:04:39Oh...

0:04:41 > 0:04:46- Morning, George.- Oh. Ha-ha. Morning, Frank. Morning, Buster.

0:04:46 > 0:04:49- We were wondering...- Oh!

0:04:52 > 0:04:54Position open!

0:04:59 > 0:05:03We haven't come to give you any letters, George.

0:05:03 > 0:05:05You haven't?

0:05:05 > 0:05:07No. We've come to...

0:05:12 > 0:05:15So, what can I do for you?

0:05:15 > 0:05:19We've come to invite you to Christmas Day at the Homestead.

0:05:19 > 0:05:23Ahh... Well, thanks, fellas. I'd love to come.

0:05:23 > 0:05:26Are you sure you'll get all this done in time, George?

0:05:26 > 0:05:30Sure. It's the same every Christmas.

0:05:30 > 0:05:34Amazing what you can do when you put your mind to it. Ah-hah!

0:05:34 > 0:05:36First delivery of the day!

0:05:36 > 0:05:38Thanks, George.

0:05:38 > 0:05:40Hmm, I wonder who it's from?

0:05:40 > 0:05:45It's from Penny! She'll be writing to tell us when she's gonna arrive!

0:05:45 > 0:05:48- Aaaaw!- Aaaaah!

0:05:48 > 0:05:50What does it say, Buster?

0:05:50 > 0:05:55"Dear Frank and Buster, thank you both for inviting me for Christmas.

0:05:55 > 0:05:59- "I've been looking forward to it for months!"- Aaaaaah!

0:05:59 > 0:06:00Aaaaah.

0:06:00 > 0:06:03"That's why it's so hard to tell you

0:06:03 > 0:06:08"that because I've hurt my wing, I won't be able...to come.

0:06:08 > 0:06:10"Love, Penny."

0:06:12 > 0:06:17- Oh!- Oh, dear. Oh, deary dear.

0:06:17 > 0:06:21Christmas is all about being together with those you love.

0:06:21 > 0:06:26But without Penny, this Christmas just wouldn't be complete.

0:06:26 > 0:06:27I'll, erm...

0:06:27 > 0:06:29I'll put the kettle on.

0:06:33 > 0:06:35Far away at the South Pole,

0:06:35 > 0:06:40Penny was trying her hardest to get into the Christmas spirit.

0:06:48 > 0:06:50Waaah!

0:06:53 > 0:06:56Waaaah!

0:07:05 > 0:07:11Hey, Buster! Our new Christmas decorations look fantastic! Buster?

0:07:11 > 0:07:14I've never seen Buster so down.

0:07:14 > 0:07:17He's downer than the downest thing.

0:07:17 > 0:07:19- Downer.- Right!

0:07:21 > 0:07:24Don't worry, Frank. I've had an idea!

0:07:26 > 0:07:29Erm... What are you doing, Buster?

0:07:29 > 0:07:34- Well, if Penny can't come to us, then we'll have to go and fetch her!- What?

0:07:34 > 0:07:39- Fetch Penny from the South Pole?! - Sure, Frank. It makes perfect sense.

0:07:39 > 0:07:44But, Buster, we don't know the way! And we've never flown that far.

0:07:44 > 0:07:47We don't even know if we'd have enough fuel.

0:07:47 > 0:07:49Besides, it'll take us too long.

0:07:49 > 0:07:51We're needed here to put up the decorations

0:07:51 > 0:07:53and prepare for Christmas Day.

0:07:53 > 0:07:56It won't be a proper Christmas without Penny.

0:07:56 > 0:08:00I'm going to miss her too, Buster.

0:08:00 > 0:08:01But we can't go.

0:08:01 > 0:08:05- It's just too far.- But...

0:08:05 > 0:08:08I was looking forward to Penny being with us for Christmas.

0:08:08 > 0:08:11I got the spare room ready and everything.

0:08:17 > 0:08:19FRANK SIGHS

0:08:32 > 0:08:35I wish you could be with us for Christmas, Penny.

0:08:35 > 0:08:37I really do!

0:08:44 > 0:08:45Waaah!

0:08:51 > 0:08:52Ah-hem...

0:08:54 > 0:08:58Well, Buster, big day tomorrow, eh?

0:08:58 > 0:09:00Christmas Eve - decorating the Homestead.

0:09:00 > 0:09:06Penny'd be on her way now, if she hadn't hurt her wing.

0:09:06 > 0:09:09Doesn't seem right us celebrating Christmas

0:09:09 > 0:09:16while she's in the South Pole on her own. Night-night, Frank.

0:09:16 > 0:09:18Night, Buster.

0:09:25 > 0:09:29Deep down, Frank knew Buster was right.

0:09:30 > 0:09:33But the South Pole?

0:09:33 > 0:09:36Could they possibly fly that far?

0:09:39 > 0:09:41Right!

0:09:49 > 0:09:52BUSTER SNORES

0:09:54 > 0:09:57Wakey, wakey, Buster!

0:09:57 > 0:10:01- Wh... What time is it, Frank? - Time you were up!

0:10:01 > 0:10:03We need an early start

0:10:03 > 0:10:06if we're to get to the South Pole and back.

0:10:06 > 0:10:08Did you say the South Pole?

0:10:08 > 0:10:12That's right. We're going to fetch Penny!

0:10:12 > 0:10:17Oh, Frank! Ha-ha-ha! Did you hear that, Penny?

0:10:17 > 0:10:21We're coming to get you at the South Pole! All the way from the Outback!

0:10:25 > 0:10:30Hurry up, Buster! We need to get to the South Pole and back quickly!

0:10:30 > 0:10:32We don't want to be late for Christmas!

0:10:32 > 0:10:36Look - this should keep me warm and toasty.

0:10:36 > 0:10:39That's right. It's cold enough to freeze your ears off

0:10:39 > 0:10:42at the South Pole, isn't it, Frank?

0:10:42 > 0:10:46Is it? Um, I mean, oh, yeah, I've heard it's a bit chilly.

0:10:46 > 0:10:48Hey, look!

0:10:48 > 0:10:50Ah! Ha-ha!

0:10:50 > 0:10:54- Morning, Sammy, Archie!- Morning! - We heard about your trip!

0:10:54 > 0:10:57- South Pole, eh?- Yep.

0:10:57 > 0:11:01It'll be worth it to bring Penny back for Christmas.

0:11:01 > 0:11:02Here you go, chaps!

0:11:02 > 0:11:07Erm, we won't have time to play tennis at the South Pole, Archie.

0:11:07 > 0:11:09Oh... Ha-ha!

0:11:09 > 0:11:14No, no, no. These are to put on your feet, so you can walk in the snow.

0:11:14 > 0:11:18I hear you can sink right up to your ears in the snow,

0:11:18 > 0:11:21maybe disappear altogether.

0:11:21 > 0:11:26- Ha-ha!- Here, I brought you a map of the South Pole for when you get lost.

0:11:26 > 0:11:28Ah, thanks.

0:11:28 > 0:11:31- All right, Frank?- Oh, hi, George.

0:11:31 > 0:11:33Yeah, I was just thinking...

0:11:33 > 0:11:37We've never been on a journey this far before.

0:11:37 > 0:11:39I hope it'll be all right.

0:11:39 > 0:11:42If there's one thing that's certain, Frank,

0:11:42 > 0:11:44it's that you're the fella for the job!

0:11:44 > 0:11:50- You're the best pilot I know.- Huh... I'm the only pilot you know, George!

0:11:50 > 0:11:53Yeah, I was just trying to make you feel better.

0:11:53 > 0:11:59But I do have a bit of advice, something a good friend once told me.

0:11:59 > 0:12:03Never be afraid to ask for help if you need it.

0:12:03 > 0:12:06Ah, thanks. I'll remember that.

0:12:06 > 0:12:10- Erm... Who gave you that advice, George?- You did, Frank! Ha-ha.

0:12:10 > 0:12:13- You did!- Oh! Ha-ha-ha!

0:12:16 > 0:12:18- Bye.- Bye.

0:12:18 > 0:12:22Now, while we're away, you and Ned are in charge, Mitzi.

0:12:22 > 0:12:25What? Of the whole Homestead?

0:12:25 > 0:12:30- That's right!- You'll have to work together.- We're counting on you.

0:12:30 > 0:12:33Well, you can rely on us, can't they, Ned?

0:12:33 > 0:12:35Erm... Yeah...

0:12:35 > 0:12:37Of course they can.

0:12:37 > 0:12:38Great!

0:12:40 > 0:12:42Right then. Stand by!

0:12:42 > 0:12:44Standing by!

0:12:48 > 0:12:51Chocks away, Buster!

0:12:51 > 0:12:53Chocks away, Frank!

0:12:53 > 0:12:56- Get the gate, Ned! - I'm getting the gate, Frank.

0:12:58 > 0:13:01- Buckle up, Buster!- Buckled up.

0:13:22 > 0:13:26So that morning, the Koala Brothers set off into the bright blue sky

0:13:26 > 0:13:29on the biggest adventure of their lives...

0:13:33 > 0:13:37..to bring their friend, Penny, back home for Christmas.

0:13:37 > 0:13:39OK, Buster, which way do we head?

0:13:39 > 0:13:41I'll check the map.

0:13:44 > 0:13:45Oh! Ah!

0:13:48 > 0:13:51Come on, Buster, which way to the South Pole?

0:13:51 > 0:13:54Um... Just go south for a bit.

0:13:55 > 0:13:58- Right.- That way, Frank!

0:13:58 > 0:14:01OK, this way?

0:14:01 > 0:14:03At least we've got nice weather for it.

0:14:05 > 0:14:07- Which way now?- Keep going Sou...

0:14:07 > 0:14:09No, the other south, Frank!

0:14:11 > 0:14:15Right, Ned. No sense in hanging around.

0:14:15 > 0:14:17We've got lots to do!

0:14:17 > 0:14:19That's right. We're in charge!

0:14:19 > 0:14:23Yeah, so I think we should each do what we're best at.

0:14:23 > 0:14:25Sounds a good idea to me.

0:14:25 > 0:14:31So I'll do all the organising and you can do the other stuff.

0:14:31 > 0:14:33Other stuff? Erm...

0:14:33 > 0:14:36Frank and Buster said we should work together.

0:14:36 > 0:14:40It doesn't take two of us to sweep the yard, Ned.

0:14:42 > 0:14:47But I'm in charge too. We're supposed to be a team.

0:14:53 > 0:14:57Hey, Frank, I can see the sea!

0:14:57 > 0:14:59It looks SO blue!

0:14:59 > 0:15:02It's getting colder, Buster.

0:15:02 > 0:15:03That's a good sign, Frank.

0:15:03 > 0:15:06- We must be going the right way. - Yeah.

0:15:06 > 0:15:10Could you pass me a drink? That'll warm me up.

0:15:12 > 0:15:18Thanks. I thought you were going to put a hot drink in the flask.

0:15:18 > 0:15:19That's what it's for!

0:15:19 > 0:15:24But it's lemonade, Frank, with lots of ice. Just how you like it.

0:15:25 > 0:15:28Hmm... It all looks the same down there.

0:15:28 > 0:15:33- What does it say on the map? - Right... Yes... The map.

0:15:33 > 0:15:37Erm, let's see now... Well...

0:15:37 > 0:15:39just keep going south for a bit.

0:15:39 > 0:15:42But which way is south?

0:15:42 > 0:15:47- More lemonade?- You have got the map, haven't you, Buster?

0:15:47 > 0:15:50Erm... No.

0:15:50 > 0:15:55Under the circumstances, Frank took the news about the map quite well.

0:15:55 > 0:15:56Sorry, Frank.

0:15:58 > 0:16:01As Frank and Buster approached the South Pole,

0:16:01 > 0:16:05their journey was getting more hazardous.

0:16:05 > 0:16:09I've never felt rain so cold and wet, Frank!

0:16:09 > 0:16:10Whoa!

0:16:26 > 0:16:29I still can't see land, Frank.

0:16:29 > 0:16:31- Erm, Buster?- What?

0:16:39 > 0:16:42A bit of warning would have been nice, Frank!

0:16:42 > 0:16:44Sorry, Buster.

0:16:45 > 0:16:48Meanwhile, back at the Homestead,

0:16:48 > 0:16:52Ned really wanted to find something important to do.

0:16:52 > 0:16:54Something he could be in charge of.

0:16:58 > 0:17:00Erm, Mitzi?

0:17:00 > 0:17:06Um... How about I be in charge of putting up the decorations?

0:17:06 > 0:17:08I haven't got you on my list for that.

0:17:08 > 0:17:11But Frank always lets me help with the decorations.

0:17:11 > 0:17:14And he said we were both in charge.

0:17:14 > 0:17:18Oh, all right, Ned. You can be in charge of the decorations.

0:17:18 > 0:17:19Oh, thanks, Mitzi!

0:17:19 > 0:17:23- After you've cleaned the windows.- Oh.

0:17:26 > 0:17:29We've got to find land soon, Buster!

0:17:29 > 0:17:33The plane's not used to this sort of weather and neither am I.

0:17:33 > 0:17:36Look, Frank. Straight ahead.

0:17:36 > 0:17:38BOTH: Aaaw!

0:17:42 > 0:17:44Yeah! You did it, Frank.

0:17:44 > 0:17:48We're at the South Pole! We're at the South Pole!

0:17:48 > 0:17:52I knew you could do it. Whoa! Where are we going?

0:17:52 > 0:17:57- Down, I think! Hang on! - Woahhhhhhhhhhhhh!

0:17:57 > 0:18:00Oh! Oh!

0:18:00 > 0:18:01Ah!

0:18:02 > 0:18:05Ow! Oh! Oh!

0:18:05 > 0:18:10- CRACKLING - Oh!

0:18:10 > 0:18:13BUSTER: Frank! Look out for that hill!

0:18:15 > 0:18:18- FRANK:- Brace yourself, Buster!

0:18:18 > 0:18:19Buster?

0:18:19 > 0:18:23Frank? Is that you?

0:18:23 > 0:18:26VOICES ECHO AND SHOUT

0:18:26 > 0:18:27Huh!

0:18:31 > 0:18:33RADIO CRACKLES

0:18:40 > 0:18:42Phwer!

0:18:42 > 0:18:45Frank? Frank?

0:18:45 > 0:18:48- Ooh! Buster?- Frank!

0:18:48 > 0:18:51- Buster! - BOTH: We're here!

0:18:51 > 0:18:54The South Pole!

0:18:54 > 0:19:00It goes on for miles and miles and miles.

0:19:07 > 0:19:10But it was them! Honestly!

0:19:10 > 0:19:13I heard them talking. Frank and Buster.

0:19:13 > 0:19:15Sounded like they needed help!

0:19:15 > 0:19:17In the cupboard, you say?

0:19:17 > 0:19:23- That's right, George.- Hmm... Maybe you just thought you heard them

0:19:23 > 0:19:27- because you're worried about them, Mr Ned.- Good point, Archie!- Hmm...

0:19:27 > 0:19:33- Suppose so.- Hi, Archie! Hi, George! Ready to put up the decorations then?

0:19:33 > 0:19:35We're raring to go!

0:19:35 > 0:19:38But you said I was in charge of the decorations, Mitzi!

0:19:38 > 0:19:43You are! Sammy delivered three boxes yesterday, remember?

0:19:43 > 0:19:46That's one box each.

0:19:46 > 0:19:48Oh, yeah.

0:19:50 > 0:19:54Oh, I say, look at this -

0:19:54 > 0:19:57an inflatable snowman!

0:19:57 > 0:19:59Let's have a little look see.

0:19:59 > 0:20:03The Christmas lights. I'm a bit of a dab hand at these!

0:20:03 > 0:20:07- <- Ooh, lanterns. Oh, this is nice, eh?

0:20:07 > 0:20:13Ah, what a lovely little tree, Mr Ned! Oh, well, better get started.

0:20:13 > 0:20:17- <- Good idea, Archie.- I think we'll have fun with the snowman.

0:20:19 > 0:20:21Ah!

0:20:21 > 0:20:24Oh! Ah! Oh! Oh!

0:20:24 > 0:20:27This really gets you into the festive spirit, Mr Ned.

0:20:27 > 0:20:33- Suppose so. Need any help, George? - No, that's OK, Ned.

0:20:33 > 0:20:37I've got it all in hand.

0:20:42 > 0:20:45Ned, when Sammy comes with the groceries,

0:20:45 > 0:20:50could you show him to the kitchen? Josie and Alice will be coming soon.

0:20:50 > 0:20:54- They're helping with the food. - Mitzi...so what are you doing?

0:20:54 > 0:20:56Organising, of course!

0:20:58 > 0:21:01Ah! Ah, these are nice.

0:21:03 > 0:21:06Looks like the radio got jammed, Buster.

0:21:06 > 0:21:09I'll have to fix it when we get back.

0:21:09 > 0:21:13Do you know, this place reminds me of the Outback...only whiter

0:21:13 > 0:21:18and chillier and quieter and colder and there's no trees and...

0:21:18 > 0:21:22I get the picture. No wonder Penny loves to come to the Homestead.

0:21:22 > 0:21:25- This place is deserted. - How will we find her?

0:21:25 > 0:21:28I think we'll have to continue on foot.

0:21:28 > 0:21:32Good job we've got these then. Hey, Frank, look at me!

0:21:32 > 0:21:36Archie was right - they're perfect for the snow!

0:21:36 > 0:21:40Erm, yeah, they look great, Buster.

0:21:40 > 0:21:42Are you coming down then, Frank?

0:21:42 > 0:21:44Yeah, sure!

0:21:46 > 0:21:49Um...

0:21:49 > 0:21:50Ooh!

0:21:50 > 0:21:51Oh!

0:21:51 > 0:21:55Ha-ha! Look at you, Frank!

0:21:55 > 0:21:57Yeah, erm...

0:21:57 > 0:22:00Oh, bit...tricky.

0:22:00 > 0:22:03Better get your snow shoes on, Frank.

0:22:03 > 0:22:07Good idea. Then we'd better try and find Penny.

0:22:07 > 0:22:10Wherever she might be.

0:22:15 > 0:22:18THEY PANT

0:22:18 > 0:22:20It's hard work, isn't it?

0:22:20 > 0:22:22# I'm walking in the South Pole

0:22:22 > 0:22:25# Dum-de-dum With my brother Frank...

0:22:25 > 0:22:27# And I've got tennis racquets on my feet... #

0:22:27 > 0:22:31- OK, Frank?- No...worries. Uh!

0:22:35 > 0:22:39- Come on, Frank.- Ah! I am trying.

0:22:42 > 0:22:44I wish we still had the map!

0:22:44 > 0:22:47I said I was sorry, Frank.

0:22:47 > 0:22:48I know, Buster. I know.

0:22:48 > 0:22:51Do you think it's much further?

0:22:51 > 0:22:55- No idea. Keep going.- I think you're getting better at it, Frank!

0:22:57 > 0:23:02- Well, Buster, we're lost! - We've got to keep going, Frank!

0:23:02 > 0:23:04We've got to find Penny!

0:23:04 > 0:23:05Huh!

0:23:09 > 0:23:11- PENGUIN SCREECHES - Ah!

0:23:12 > 0:23:13Hmm...

0:23:18 > 0:23:19Ah!

0:23:21 > 0:23:23Buster, I think we're being watched!

0:23:23 > 0:23:25Are you sure, Frank?

0:23:25 > 0:23:28All I can see is snow!

0:23:28 > 0:23:30Yeah, I'm sure.

0:23:30 > 0:23:32I think you're seeing things.

0:23:34 > 0:23:39- Whaaa! - PENGUIN SQUEAKS

0:23:41 > 0:23:46- PENGUIN SQUAWKS - Erm...what's he doing, Buster?

0:23:46 > 0:23:51I don't think he's seen a koala before, Frank! Never mind two.

0:23:51 > 0:23:53Right, then. A-hem.

0:23:53 > 0:23:55Hello there.

0:23:55 > 0:24:01We have come from far, far away - Australia!

0:24:01 > 0:24:03PENGUIN CHEEPS

0:24:03 > 0:24:08Hey, Frank, ask him if he knows where Penny lives!

0:24:08 > 0:24:13Yes, well, erm... We've come to find our friend,

0:24:13 > 0:24:19- Penny the Penguin, do you know her? - PENGUIN CHEEPS

0:24:21 > 0:24:27Erm, she's got a hurt wing and she walks like this!

0:24:30 > 0:24:35PENGUIN LAUGHS Maybe I should just show him a photo.

0:24:35 > 0:24:39Good idea. You mean you've got a photograph of Penny?

0:24:39 > 0:24:42- Why didn't you say so? - You didn't ask.

0:24:44 > 0:24:46PENGUIN SQUEAKS

0:24:46 > 0:24:49Hey, Frank. I think he knows where she is!

0:24:50 > 0:24:52Yes.

0:24:55 > 0:24:58So for the first time since they landed in the South Pole,

0:24:58 > 0:25:01they thought they were getting somewhere.

0:25:01 > 0:25:05- All thanks to their new friend. - Right behind you, Frank.

0:25:08 > 0:25:10I wish Frank and Buster were here.

0:25:10 > 0:25:15They always let me help out. I'm sure I heard them in the cupboard.

0:25:15 > 0:25:18They DID sound like they were in trouble!

0:25:18 > 0:25:20Coming along nicely, George.

0:25:20 > 0:25:25Why, thank you. All we've got to do is connect them together,

0:25:25 > 0:25:28so they'll come on with the flick of a switch.

0:25:28 > 0:25:32Frank and Buster will be in for a treat when they get back.

0:25:32 > 0:25:37A-hem. Especially when they see my inflatable snowman!

0:25:37 > 0:25:41- Wow! - And if you twist this bulb... Ha-ha!

0:25:41 > 0:25:46..his nose flashes on and off! Ha-ha-ha!

0:25:46 > 0:25:49Whoop! Ha-ha! Oh, it keeps popping off!

0:25:49 > 0:25:55- It'll look a lot better in the dark. - Come on, Josie. Let's get started!

0:25:55 > 0:25:59- I'm right behind you, Alice. - Ha! There we go.

0:25:59 > 0:26:04I've got everything I need, I think.

0:26:04 > 0:26:05G'day.

0:26:05 > 0:26:08NED SIGHS

0:26:10 > 0:26:14- RADIO CRACKLES - Frank? Buster?

0:26:14 > 0:26:15Can you hear me?

0:26:15 > 0:26:17It's me, Ned.

0:26:17 > 0:26:20I hope you're safe and everything.

0:26:20 > 0:26:23Well, it all seems to be going well here.

0:26:23 > 0:26:27Mitzi's been great at organizing and everyone's helping out.

0:26:27 > 0:26:30I've, erm, swept the yard and stuff.

0:26:30 > 0:26:33Not actually been in charge, but...

0:26:33 > 0:26:38Heh, oh, well. You be careful, eh? Get back safely.

0:26:38 > 0:26:41- RADIO WHISTLES - Ooh!

0:26:56 > 0:27:01So that's how I heard Frank and Buster! It's some kind of radio!

0:27:07 > 0:27:10Wow, look at this, Frank.

0:27:10 > 0:27:12Yeah.

0:27:14 > 0:27:18ECHOING: Hello-o-o-o!

0:27:35 > 0:27:38Frank! I think this is it!

0:27:38 > 0:27:41Penny's snow hut!

0:27:41 > 0:27:45Well, there's only one way to find out, Buster!

0:27:53 > 0:27:55Go on, then!

0:27:55 > 0:27:57Right!

0:28:02 > 0:28:05Uh! Hello, Penny.

0:28:05 > 0:28:09Oh, Penny. We couldn't spend Christmas without you!

0:28:09 > 0:28:12We're taking you back to the Homestead!

0:28:13 > 0:28:14Hello, Penny.

0:28:16 > 0:28:18PENNY SQUEAKS

0:28:21 > 0:28:23Ow! Watch your head, Frank.

0:28:27 > 0:28:29PENGUINS CACKLE

0:28:33 > 0:28:36It wasn't long before Frank and Buster

0:28:36 > 0:28:40were warming up with mugs of hot chocolate! Yummy!

0:28:40 > 0:28:44I must say, Penny, your house is really warming me up!

0:28:44 > 0:28:49Yeah, it's really cosy! We forgot to ask, how's your wing, Penny?

0:28:49 > 0:28:53- Waaah!- Oh, you poor thing.

0:28:53 > 0:28:56I can't wait for you to see the Homestead.

0:28:56 > 0:28:59All the decorations and everything.

0:28:59 > 0:29:02We've got all your favourite food from Sammy's Store.

0:29:02 > 0:29:06And everyone will be there - Mitzi, Ned, everyone.

0:29:06 > 0:29:11It's going to be really good! I'm so pleased we found you Penny.

0:29:11 > 0:29:14We wouldn't have had a great time without you.

0:29:14 > 0:29:18We'd better be going. We need to be back before it gets dark!

0:29:18 > 0:29:22Aw, but we've just got here, Frank. Can't we stay longer?

0:29:22 > 0:29:25I'm sorry, Buster, we just don't have the time.

0:29:27 > 0:29:30Well, better get packing, Penny,

0:29:30 > 0:29:32we've got a long journey ahead of us.

0:29:33 > 0:29:37Back at the Homestead, things were really taking shape.

0:29:37 > 0:29:40Left a bit.

0:29:40 > 0:29:43Now right!

0:29:43 > 0:29:46Look what I've found, Mitzi. It's how I heard Frank and Bu...

0:29:46 > 0:29:50Show me later, Ned! I'm busy! Right, Archie! Right!

0:29:52 > 0:29:56- Oh.- Oh, never mind, just pop it back in.

0:29:56 > 0:30:00< Now straighten it up a bit. That's it. A bit more.

0:30:00 > 0:30:02- <- Like that?

0:30:02 > 0:30:05Right, Frank, which way is the plane?

0:30:05 > 0:30:08Oh, right. Erm, now let me see.

0:30:08 > 0:30:11We came from over there and turned left...

0:30:11 > 0:30:14no, no, right near a white hill...

0:30:14 > 0:30:18Erm...I haven't got a clue, Buster.

0:30:21 > 0:30:24Aah! But I know who might!

0:30:24 > 0:30:26Hey! Hey! Over here.

0:30:33 > 0:30:40Hello, little penguin, can you show us the way back to our plane?

0:30:41 > 0:30:45Erm, PLANE... Brrrrrrr...

0:30:46 > 0:30:49Brrrrrr...

0:30:49 > 0:30:50PENGUIN SHOUTS

0:30:50 > 0:30:52Hey, we're on our way!

0:30:54 > 0:30:56Hey, look, Frank. Ha-ha!

0:30:56 > 0:30:59You're going to ski to the plane!

0:30:59 > 0:31:01Erm...I...I am?!

0:31:05 > 0:31:07Whoa-a-a-a!

0:31:07 > 0:31:13- A-a-aah!- Whey-hey! It's easier than it looks, eh, Frank?

0:31:13 > 0:31:15A-a-aah!

0:31:15 > 0:31:18A-a-ah! A-a-a-ah!

0:31:19 > 0:31:20Frank!

0:31:20 > 0:31:27Buste-e-e-e-r-r-r!

0:31:27 > 0:31:29THUD!

0:31:31 > 0:31:33Frank! Say something.

0:31:35 > 0:31:36A-hem... Fine.

0:31:36 > 0:31:41- I'm fine!- That was some jump, Frank!

0:31:41 > 0:31:47Well, erm, as you said, Buster, it's easier than it looks.

0:31:47 > 0:31:50Ha-ha-he!

0:31:57 > 0:32:00So despite Frank's problems with the skis,

0:32:00 > 0:32:05they eventually found their plane, thanks to the little penguin.

0:32:05 > 0:32:09But they still needed to dig it out of the snow!

0:32:09 > 0:32:13It's a shame you forget the shovel, Frank.

0:32:13 > 0:32:15Yes, it's a shame WE did, Buster!

0:32:18 > 0:32:20Hmm...this could be tricky.

0:32:24 > 0:32:27Are you all right?

0:32:27 > 0:32:32I think you've just found the answer.

0:32:32 > 0:32:37- We can use the skis! - PENGUIN CHIRPS

0:32:40 > 0:32:43Frank, you're a genius!

0:32:43 > 0:32:44Thanks, Buster.

0:32:51 > 0:32:55Back at the homestead, Ned really wished he had Frank with him

0:32:55 > 0:32:57to show him how to use the radio.

0:32:57 > 0:32:59Headphones?

0:32:59 > 0:33:00Right.

0:33:02 > 0:33:08Um, next...press...the button.

0:33:09 > 0:33:12- RADIO WHISTLES - Ooh! Ow!

0:33:12 > 0:33:13Ow!

0:33:18 > 0:33:21Huh, must be the other button.

0:33:21 > 0:33:24< Where are they? They should be here by now!

0:33:27 > 0:33:30It won't be long before it gets dark!

0:33:30 > 0:33:33HORN TOOTS Ah! Sammy!

0:33:33 > 0:33:36Oh, no, we've got a problem.

0:33:36 > 0:33:39- Look what I found.- A map?

0:33:39 > 0:33:42It's the one I gave Frank and Buster!

0:33:42 > 0:33:46They must have dropped it! How are they going to find their way home?

0:33:46 > 0:33:48Um, I don't know.

0:33:50 > 0:33:52At last the plane was free

0:33:52 > 0:33:56and Frank and Buster could take Penny back to the Homestead.

0:33:56 > 0:34:00- All right, Frank? - The light's fading fast, Buster.

0:34:00 > 0:34:02I'm worried we won't get back before dark.

0:34:02 > 0:34:08Hmm, we'd better say our goodbyes, then. Well, thanks for all the help!

0:34:08 > 0:34:09Thanks little fella.

0:34:09 > 0:34:11Well, come on, Buster, Penny.

0:34:11 > 0:34:13We'd really better be going.

0:34:13 > 0:34:16- Erm, Frank?- Hmm? Oh.

0:34:16 > 0:34:21- PENGUIN SQUEAKS - Erm... Um...

0:34:21 > 0:34:29Bye, little fella. Aw, come here! We'll come back and see you soon.

0:34:29 > 0:34:33- That's a promise!- Hey, Frank? Say cheese!- Cheese!

0:34:36 > 0:34:37There you go, Penny!

0:34:45 > 0:34:49All right, Frank?

0:34:49 > 0:34:52Yeah. Right.

0:34:54 > 0:34:58- To the Homestead, Buster! - To the Homestead, Frank!

0:35:07 > 0:35:11So as the three intrepid adventurers set off,

0:35:11 > 0:35:15the final part of their amazing journey was about to unfold.

0:35:20 > 0:35:23BUSTER AND PENNY CHOMP

0:35:24 > 0:35:26Hey, these are really nice!

0:35:26 > 0:35:29- Want one, Frank?- All I want is a map!

0:35:33 > 0:35:37Ooh, ha-ha! Stop it. Ha-ha-ha-ha! It tickles!

0:35:37 > 0:35:40Hey, Frank! Penny's got a map!

0:35:40 > 0:35:45What? That's great! Erm, can you hand it over?

0:35:45 > 0:35:47This should get us back on track.

0:35:47 > 0:35:49Wuh!

0:35:51 > 0:35:54- RADIO: Aah! Aah! Aah! - Huh!

0:35:55 > 0:35:57A-a-a-a-h!

0:35:58 > 0:36:02- Oh-h-h-h!- Argh!

0:36:02 > 0:36:03ALL: Oh!

0:36:05 > 0:36:08Buster! Penny! It's OK!

0:36:11 > 0:36:14OK, let's try again. Hand me the map, Buster.

0:36:17 > 0:36:21- RADIO:- How can you lose two maps in one day, Buster?

0:36:21 > 0:36:25'Sorry, Frank! But I was scared!'

0:36:25 > 0:36:27Phew! They're OK!

0:36:27 > 0:36:30This is Ned at Homestead Control.

0:36:30 > 0:36:35- Can you hear me Frank and Buster? Over!- Why is he saying "over"?

0:36:35 > 0:36:39- It's what you say on the radio.- Oh!

0:36:40 > 0:36:43Er, did you just hear, Ned?

0:36:43 > 0:36:46'This is Ned. Can you hear me? Over!'

0:36:46 > 0:36:49Ned must have found the old radio!

0:36:49 > 0:36:53- Ned! It's me, Frank. - CHEERS FROM RADIO

0:36:53 > 0:36:57We're on our way home. Going to have to perform a night landing. Over!

0:36:57 > 0:37:00A night landing? Are you sure, Frank?

0:37:00 > 0:37:05I'm sure, Ned! I'm going to ask you to do something really important!

0:37:05 > 0:37:07What's that, Frank?

0:37:07 > 0:37:12Somehow, you're going to have to guide us in. Over!

0:37:12 > 0:37:15- Oh! Oh!- Ned, are you still there? Ned?

0:37:15 > 0:37:19- We've lost him, Frank! - Sorry, Frank. I'm here.

0:37:20 > 0:37:25We really need you to do this, Ned. We really need your help!

0:37:25 > 0:37:28You're in charge!

0:37:28 > 0:37:34- ECHOES:- You're in charge! You're in charge! You're in charge!

0:37:34 > 0:37:36I won't let you down, Frank.

0:37:36 > 0:37:38Over!

0:37:38 > 0:37:42All right. We're all going to have to help Frank land!

0:37:42 > 0:37:46Could you all please stand in the yard and listen out for the plane?

0:37:46 > 0:37:49Right-ho, Mr Ned!

0:37:53 > 0:37:56'So, where are you, Frank? Over.'

0:37:56 > 0:37:58Can't see a thing.

0:37:58 > 0:37:59It's too dark.

0:37:59 > 0:38:02We're going to take a closer look, Ned.

0:38:04 > 0:38:07Can't see anything yet, Frank!

0:38:09 > 0:38:10Whoooa!

0:38:13 > 0:38:17Hey, Frank. These are gum leaves.

0:38:17 > 0:38:19We must be in Australia! Ha-hee!

0:38:19 > 0:38:24- Great. Did you hear that, Ned? - 'Loud and clear, Frank!'

0:38:30 > 0:38:33- Still not back, yet? - They're on their way,

0:38:33 > 0:38:40- but they're going to have to find the Homestead in the dark!- Oh, dear!

0:38:40 > 0:38:44Frank, everyone's in position. They're listening out for you!

0:38:44 > 0:38:46'Great, Ned.

0:38:46 > 0:38:48'We'll fly as low as we can. Ned?

0:38:48 > 0:38:50'Ned?

0:38:50 > 0:38:52'Look out, Frank!

0:38:52 > 0:38:56'Watch! Aa-a-ah!'

0:38:57 > 0:38:59Frank?

0:38:59 > 0:39:01Buster? Can you hear me? Over.

0:39:01 > 0:39:04Can you hear me?!

0:39:06 > 0:39:12- I've lost contact! Can anyone hear the plane?- ALL: No.

0:39:15 > 0:39:17Oh, please come home.

0:39:36 > 0:39:40Oh! Listen, can you hear something?

0:39:40 > 0:39:43It's them! I know it's them!

0:39:43 > 0:39:46'Ned! Where are you? Are you there?

0:39:46 > 0:39:48'Over!'

0:39:48 > 0:39:50ALL: Hurray!

0:39:51 > 0:39:53Frank!

0:39:53 > 0:39:57We thought we'd lost you! You're flying right overhead.

0:39:57 > 0:40:00Well, we can't see a thing, Ned.

0:40:00 > 0:40:02It's as black as ink down there.

0:40:02 > 0:40:05What are we going to do, Ned?

0:40:05 > 0:40:08If only we could shine a big bright light up at them.

0:40:08 > 0:40:14A light? Archie! George! Are the Christmas decorations all ready?

0:40:14 > 0:40:17Is that all you can think about at a time like this, Ned?
