00:00Today, Rupert's Game of Cricket leads him to help Constable Growler in Rupert and the Air Smugglers.

00:16There's a little bear like you've never seen before, who's a lot of fun.

00:23Children everywhere, go to love him more and more, he's the number one.

00:30There's a million stories to be told, all the things that he's done.

00:36And he's gonna share them all with you, so come along.

00:44Rupert, Rupert the Bell, everyone sing his name.

00:51Rupert, Rupert the Bell, everyone come and join.

00:56Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, in all of his name.

01:00There now, those windows look a bit cleaner, don't they, Rupert, says Mr. Bear.

01:13He steps back to admire his handiwork.

01:16Rupert puts down his cloth.

01:18Yes, Daddy, I think Mummy will be pleased.

01:21Let's put these things away, and then we'll all go to the village, and I'll buy you that cricket ball I promised you, Mr. Bear tells Rupert.

01:30Whizzo!

01:30Now, Rupert, don't lose that ball, will you, says Mr. Bear.

01:38Oh, no, Daddy, I'll take great care of it.

01:41Hello, Constable.

01:43Good morning, Mrs. Bear.

01:44You haven't seen any aeroplanes around your part of Nutwood lately, have you, asks Constable Growler.

01:50He tells them that he's had a message from headquarters about a band of air smugglers operating in the area.

01:57That sounds exciting, sir, says Rupert, interested.

02:01I'll look out for them.

02:02That was a good one, Rupert, says Bill.

02:09Oh, yes, it's gone.

02:11Edward stops, because he's seen a small plane up in the sky.

02:17Come on, let's go and find the ball, says Rupert.

02:20We might see the man on the parachute, too.

02:22He landed in the same direction.

02:25They all hurry to the other side of the trees.

02:32It must be around here somewhere, says Rupert, searching hard.

02:37I think it was over this way, says Podgy, looking behind a bush.

02:43Let's look over by these rocks, Rupert, suggests Bill.

02:47I wonder where the man on the parachute went to.

02:51He can't have gone very far away.

02:54What's this, Rupert?

02:57Why, that's the parachute, Bill.

02:59It looks different on the ground, doesn't it?

03:03He must be here somewhere.

03:06Rupert and Bill search among the rocks.

03:09Edward is looking in a bush when...

03:12Help! Help! Help! Help!

03:18Keep still, Podgy, and I'll pull you out.

03:23Oh! Oh! Oh!

03:25Oh! That's better. It was very dark in there, says Podgy, thankfully.

03:33What are you holding, Podgy?

03:36Well, this is Rupert's ball. I found it.

03:39But this piece of rope was in the hole, too.

03:42They both look at the rope and see that it leads back into the rabbit hole.

03:47That's strange. I wonder what it's doing.

03:52Let's pull it and see.

03:56Podgy and Edward pull.

04:00Rupert and Bill are still searching,

04:02when suddenly,

04:04one of the rocks moves up on a hinge.

04:08Bill, look!

04:09The man must have gone down here, Rupert says.

04:13Come on, Bill.

04:14We must see if we can find him.

04:22Oh! Oh!

04:25Oh, I don't think there's any end to this rope, Edward.

04:28I can't...

04:30Well, any more...

04:33No.

04:33We'd better let it go and see where Rupert and Bill are,

04:36because we've found the ball, says Edward.

04:40As they let go of the rope,

04:42the rock starts to close up again.

04:46But Rupert and Bill are still down there.

04:53Rupert, we're shut in, exclaims Bill.

04:56And it looks much too heavy to move.

05:00Let's try, suggests Rupert.

05:03They push and push, but nothing happens.

05:06Oh, no, it's no use, Bill.

05:11Rupert looks around.

05:13Look!

05:15There's a tunnel leading from the bottom of the steps.

05:18And it's not dark.

05:19Someone's left the luck down there.

05:21Come on, let's see where it goes to.

05:23Oh, I don't like it much.

05:32Where it leads, they do not know,

05:35nor what they'll see.

05:36But on they go.

05:37As they're round a corner,

05:42the tunnel opens out into a large cavern.

05:45There's another lamp burning,

05:47and it shows them all sorts of things.

05:50Boxes full of jewels, watches, cameras,

05:53and some packing cases,

05:55which somebody has been busy making.

05:58Look, there's some stairs up there, Rupert.

06:03Bill's anxious to get out.

06:05Yes, we must get back to Constable Growler

06:08and tell him about this.

06:09I think these must be the air smugglers.

06:12Oh, let's hurry, says Bill.

06:16Shh!

06:16I can hear footsteps above us.

06:20They look up

06:21and see that the stairs finish under a trap door,

06:25which is shut.

06:27Oh, it's too high.

06:29We'll never reach it,

06:31exclaims Bill miserably.

06:34We could if we put one of these boxes under it,

06:36says Rupert.

06:37Come on, help me carry it.

06:40Ah, now one end each,

06:42and we'll get it up these stairs,

06:44says Rupert.

06:46Right, here we go.

06:51And they move it to the top.

06:56Shh, quietly.

06:59Phew.

07:01Bill found that exhausting.

07:03Now, I'll climb up first,

07:05then I can help you out.

07:09Rupert can easily reach now.

07:12He pushes up the trap

07:13and sees a man reading a newspaper.

07:23Bill!

07:24The air smuggler is up here.

07:26We'll have to try and get out of the trap

07:27and make a dash for the door.

07:30Carefully, Rupert pushes up the trap

07:33and manages to crawl out.

07:41Oh, it's only the newspaper.

07:52Gotcha!

07:53He pounces on poor Bill.

07:55Bill, but Rupert has gone.

07:58He's run from the door.

08:00We've done it, Bill!

08:01Oh!

08:02He turns round and sees that Bill isn't with him.

08:06Bill!

08:07He calls softly.

08:08He runs back to the window and peeps in.

08:11There he sees poor Bill in the hands of the smuggler.

08:14What should he do?

08:15He looks towards the door

08:17and sees that there's a key on the outside.

08:20He creeps up

08:21and quietly shuts the door

08:23and then turns the key in the lock.

08:27Ah!

08:28Now to find Constable Growler.

08:31Hold on a minute.

08:32A plane, you say?

08:34But, sir,

08:34a man has got Bill

08:35and I've locked them in a hut.

08:38Come on, then.

08:38You can tell me the rest on the way,

08:40says the constable as they hurry along.

08:43Rupert stops suddenly.

08:45Oh!

08:46He might try to get out through the tunnel.

08:48I think we'd better go there first.

08:51Well, if you say so,

08:52says Constable Growler.

08:54But it's not all clear to me yet.

08:56He follows Rupert quickly.

08:59I wonder what's happened to Rupert and Bill,

09:02says Pudgy worriedly.

09:03I don't know.

09:05This is a funny rock.

09:07It keeps making thumping noises and shaking,

09:10says Edward.

09:10Yes, agrees Pudgy.

09:15Ah!

09:16Here's Rupert anyway.

09:18But he's got Constable Growler with him instead of Bill.

09:23Hello, Rupert.

09:24Where have you been?

09:25inquires Pudgy.

09:27We found your ball ages ago.

09:29Never mind that now,

09:31says Rupert.

09:32We've caught an air smuggler

09:33and that sounds like him trying to get out.

09:36What do you mean?

09:38inquires Pudgy.

09:39Well,

09:40that rock

09:41is the secret entrance to a tunnel

09:43and the smuggler

09:45is trying to escape from it.

09:46But with you two sitting on top,

09:48he's having a bit of difficulty.

09:52Edward and Pudgy jump off the rock,

09:55which opens up

09:55to reveal

09:56Bill, the smuggler

09:57and Bill.

10:01Right.

10:02You're under arrest, my man.

10:04And another air smuggler

10:06was caught

10:06as he landed his plane

10:07near Nutwood.

10:10Oh, good.

10:11They must have caught

10:12the other one, too.

10:14Sounds like you've had

10:15a nice game

10:15of cricket, dear.

10:16Rupert, Rupert the Bell,

10:35everyone's singing his name.

10:40Rupert, Rupert the Bell,

10:42everyone's come and joined

10:46in all of his names.

10:49Rupert, Rupert the Bell,

10:53everyone's come and joined

10:56in all of his names.

11:03Rupert.

11:12Rupert, Rupert, Rupert.

11:29Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert.
