0:00:35 > 0:00:39Everyone knows that George, as much as we all love him,
0:00:39 > 0:00:43is probably the slowest person in the Outback.
0:00:45 > 0:00:49And everyone knows that Archie is probably the fastest.
0:00:49 > 0:00:51Morning, George!
0:00:51 > 0:00:54Just on my morning run.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57Ha-ha! Hoping to beat my record today -
0:00:57 > 0:01:02- just five minutes into town and I'm done.- Five minutes into town?
0:01:02 > 0:01:05That's gonna take me at least half an hour.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08There's no hurry, is there? Ha-ha!
0:01:08 > 0:01:11- See you in town!- Bye.
0:01:12 > 0:01:15Archie was certainly a very fast runner -
0:01:15 > 0:01:19- he could always get to places faster than George could.- Aw...
0:01:19 > 0:01:21Or could he?
0:01:21 > 0:01:23Later in town,
0:01:23 > 0:01:27Mitzi was trying to organise something for everyone to do.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30I know! How about a picnic?
0:01:30 > 0:01:32We just had a picnic, Mitzi.
0:01:32 > 0:01:35Phew! Morning, all.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37ALL: Morning, George.
0:01:37 > 0:01:40- It's quite a gathering here.- Yeah.
0:01:40 > 0:01:43We're trying to think of something exciting to do - something fun.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46We want to organise a big event.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49Here, George - you look like you're thirsty.
0:01:49 > 0:01:53Thanks, Archie. You got here a lot quicker than me.
0:01:53 > 0:01:58Never mind, old chap - it's not as if we were having a race or anything.
0:01:58 > 0:02:00Hey, that's it!
0:02:00 > 0:02:03What about a race? ALL GASP
0:02:03 > 0:02:06Yeah, a race between Archie and George.
0:02:06 > 0:02:10- It'll be brilliant! - We can organise a racecourse.
0:02:10 > 0:02:12And food as well - like a picnic.
0:02:12 > 0:02:15Now, hold on, Mitzi. Hold on.
0:02:15 > 0:02:17As much as I love George,
0:02:17 > 0:02:20it wouldn't be much of a race. Why not?
0:02:20 > 0:02:23Everyone knows I'm the fastest runner here.
0:02:23 > 0:02:26I'm sure to win, eh Frank?
0:02:26 > 0:02:29It's best not to be too confident.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32Maybe Archie's right, Frank.
0:02:32 > 0:02:36I'm not sure I'd be too good in a race. I'm pretty slow.
0:02:36 > 0:02:40- Being fast isn't everything in a race.- Come on, George.
0:02:40 > 0:02:44Please! Let's have a race. It'd be fun.
0:02:44 > 0:02:46- Yeah.- Go on, George.- Well...
0:02:46 > 0:02:50if you think it'd be fun for everyone, then...
0:02:50 > 0:02:52I-I-I-I'll give it a go.
0:02:52 > 0:02:54Beauty!
0:02:54 > 0:02:56Great, George.
0:02:56 > 0:03:00- What about you, Archie? - Well, I still think George
0:03:00 > 0:03:04doesn't stand a chance of winning, but count me in.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07Right, then - let's get started.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13Come on, Ned - we've got lots to do.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15Coming, Mitzi.
0:03:15 > 0:03:19- What are you two up to?- Getting everything ready for the race.
0:03:19 > 0:03:23- Ugh...- We've got streamers for the finish line...
0:03:23 > 0:03:25Stuff to make noises when they run past...
0:03:25 > 0:03:28..and a camera and bino-clears.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30- Hi, George!- Hello, all.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33All ready for the race, George?
0:03:33 > 0:03:35Well...um...doing my best, Mitzi.
0:03:35 > 0:03:37See you later, then.
0:03:37 > 0:03:41Come on, Ned - we've got to get ready!
0:03:41 > 0:03:42NED GRUNTS
0:03:42 > 0:03:44- How are things, George?- Well...
0:03:44 > 0:03:48all right, Frank, but I'm a bit worried, see?
0:03:48 > 0:03:51- What's wrong, George?- Well, I know it's not important,
0:03:51 > 0:03:56but I don't want to look silly. I know I'm too slow to win the race.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58Being fast isn't everything, George.
0:03:58 > 0:04:02- You know when you deliver the post? - Yeah.- You just keep on going,
0:04:02 > 0:04:06- and you always get to where you want to go in the end, don't you?- Yeah,
0:04:06 > 0:04:10- I...- Then all you got to do is just keep on going.
0:04:10 > 0:04:14That's right, George - slow and steady wins the race.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16Ri-i-i-ight.
0:04:16 > 0:04:22Just keep on going, slow and steady. Thanks, Frank. Thanks, Buster.
0:04:22 > 0:04:26- That's all right, George. - BOTH: We're here to help.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31Before long, the day of the race arrived.
0:04:31 > 0:04:36It was just the sort of big eventthat Mitzi had been hoping for.
0:04:36 > 0:04:39Ah...you do any preparation for the race, George?
0:04:39 > 0:04:41Yeah, I did, actually.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44I put me lucky socks on. Look.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47Wow!
0:04:47 > 0:04:50- What's in the bag? - Just me supplies -
0:04:50 > 0:04:54- some bananas, water...- Ho-ho! There won't be much time to eat, George.
0:04:54 > 0:04:57The race will be over in no time!
0:04:57 > 0:04:59Right, everybody - pay attention.
0:04:59 > 0:05:03Archie and George will be running from town, here,
0:05:03 > 0:05:07in a big circle past the water hole and back into town, here.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10- Good luck, Archie.- Thanks, old chap.
0:05:10 > 0:05:13Good luck to you too and don't feel too bad.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16- We can't all be fast and win the race.- Remember, George -
0:05:16 > 0:05:21- just keep on going.- Right. Keep on going...
0:05:21 > 0:05:24- Ready, Ned?- Ready, Frank.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26OK, get ready...
0:05:26 > 0:05:27Set...
0:05:27 > 0:05:29Blow the bugle, Ned.
0:05:29 > 0:05:32PARP! Yay!
0:05:32 > 0:05:36- Come on, George.- Come on.
0:05:36 > 0:05:38- Go on.- Go on.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44Wow, these bino-clears are really good!
0:05:44 > 0:05:46George still looks really close.
0:05:46 > 0:05:50- That's cos he is, Mitzi.- Oh.
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Go, George!
0:05:53 > 0:05:58Now, there's no doubt that Archie was a very fast runner.
0:05:58 > 0:06:00And he was also very confident.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04But George was determined not to stop
0:06:04 > 0:06:07and to keep on going till the end.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10Some way ahead, Alice had set up a refreshment stall
0:06:10 > 0:06:14ready for when Archie and George came by.
0:06:14 > 0:06:17Archie, of course, was first.
0:06:17 > 0:06:20Archie! Yoo-hoo!
0:06:20 > 0:06:22- Hello, there!- Water, Archie?
0:06:22 > 0:06:26- To keep you going? - Oh, no thanks, Alice.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28Ooh, I say!
0:06:28 > 0:06:32That wouldn't be some of your homemade cake, by any chance?
0:06:32 > 0:06:34Oh, yes it is, Archie.
0:06:34 > 0:06:38- You don't want to eat that while you're running, do you?- Oh!
0:06:38 > 0:06:40One piece shouldn't hurt, Alice!
0:06:40 > 0:06:42But you've got a race to win.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45Well...there's no sign of George anywhere.
0:06:45 > 0:06:49The race is practically in the bag. So...
0:06:49 > 0:06:53- There you go.- Oh, no that's far too big, Alice.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55Well...yes, all right, then.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59One slice of cake turned into three
0:06:59 > 0:07:01and Archie was feeling a bit full.
0:07:01 > 0:07:05Look, it's George!
0:07:05 > 0:07:07George!
0:07:07 > 0:07:10- Yoo-hoo!- I better be off, Alice.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12Thanks for the...hic! Excuse me.
0:07:12 > 0:07:15Oh, dear. Hic!
0:07:16 > 0:07:20Hi, George, would you like a drink or some cake?
0:07:20 > 0:07:22Thanks, but no thanks.
0:07:24 > 0:07:26Oh...uh...
0:07:26 > 0:07:31Oh, I say, I think that last bit of cake may have been a mistake.
0:07:31 > 0:07:33Hic! Ooh. No sign of George, though.
0:07:33 > 0:07:38Maybe I could just have a little nap... Hic! ..under the tree.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46Oh. It's Archie.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48Maybe I should wake him up.
0:07:48 > 0:07:52No, I hate being woken up when I'm having a good nap.
0:07:52 > 0:07:58What if I just sneak past quietly...and keep on going?
0:07:58 > 0:08:00Hey, look!
0:08:00 > 0:08:03Oh, I don't believe it!
0:08:03 > 0:08:05It's George!
0:08:05 > 0:08:08HE SNORES
0:08:08 > 0:08:10Too kind...
0:08:10 > 0:08:13It was nothing...
0:08:13 > 0:08:15Archie, what are you doing here?
0:08:15 > 0:08:17Eh? What?! Oh! Ah!
0:08:17 > 0:08:20Alice, what? What are you doing here?
0:08:20 > 0:08:24- I'm going back to see the end of the race but...- Agh! The race!
0:08:24 > 0:08:28Oh, no! I've got to go, Alice. I've got to go. Oh, dear! Hic!
0:08:29 > 0:08:32He's taking forever!
0:08:34 > 0:08:37Wait a minute - there's Archie.
0:08:37 > 0:08:40I can still do it! I can still do it!
0:08:40 > 0:08:42Agh!
0:08:42 > 0:08:43Ooh!
0:08:45 > 0:08:47Just...keep on going.
0:08:47 > 0:08:51That's what they said - don't stop. Keep on going.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58- Keep going... - ALL CHEER
0:08:58 > 0:09:00Good on you, George!
0:09:00 > 0:09:03I did it! I won the race!
0:09:06 > 0:09:10Hic! Oh, I say - well done, old chap. Well done.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13Thanks, Archie. I just...
0:09:13 > 0:09:15I just don't know how I did it.
0:09:15 > 0:09:20I know how you did it, George - you just kept on going until you won.
0:09:20 > 0:09:23Three cheers for Archie and George. Hip, hip...
0:09:23 > 0:09:25HOORAY!
0:09:25 > 0:09:28- Hip, hip...- HOORAY! - So, thanks to the Koala brothers,
0:09:28 > 0:09:31George learnt that if you just keep on going and never give up,
0:09:31 > 0:09:33you can do almost anything.
