00:00
Today, Rupert helps with the moving in, in Rupert and the New Neighbors.
00:17
There's a little bear, like you've ever seen before, who's a lot of fun.
00:23
Children everywhere, go to love him more and more, he's the number one.
00:30
There's a million stories to be told, of the things that he's done.
00:36
And he's gonna share them all with you, so come along.
00:44
Rupert, Rupert the Bell, everyone sing his name.
00:50
Rupert, Rupert the Bell, everyone come and join.
00:56
It's Mrs. Bear's day for cleaning out the sitting room.
01:08
You are busy, Mummy, says Rupert.
01:11
I expect the lady who's moving in up the lane today will have to polish too.
01:16
Is it today, Rupert?
01:18
My goodness, it only seems like yesterday that the Twitchit family lived there.
01:23
Yes, I miss Sammy.
01:26
I must see whether I can help the new people, says Mrs. Bear.
01:31
But, Mummy, you've got far too much to do.
01:34
I'll go and see if I can help.
01:36
Would you, dear?
01:37
Oh, thank you.
01:39
Your daddy's coming home to lunch today, and I haven't made the pie yet.
01:45
Gosh, I didn't know that there are two empty cottages.
01:49
And they're both sold.
01:51
Good-o, that means another new family in the lane.
01:54
Rupert!
01:57
Rupert!
01:58
Calls Margot.
02:00
Rupert!
02:01
Calls Bill.
02:03
Hello, you two, answers Rupert.
02:05
He waits for them both to join him.
02:08
Why are you standing outside here, Rupert?
02:11
Asks Bill.
02:13
Nobody lives here, adds Margot, before Rupert can answer.
02:17
There'll soon be a family living here.
02:19
I'm waiting for them to arrive.
02:22
Why, Rupert?
02:24
Because I thought I might be able to help them move in.
02:26
But they haven't arrived yet.
02:28
Look, what's that?
02:30
Asks Bill.
02:32
It looks like a removal van backing round the corner.
02:37
We're here, mate.
02:38
Get the back down and start unloading, says a man's voice in the distance.
02:43
Shall we ask whether we can help?
02:45
Asks Rupert.
02:47
Oh, yes, Rupert, I like that.
02:50
I think I'll be a moving man when I get older,
02:53
says Bill very seriously.
02:55
You can't be a moving man, Bill.
02:58
You can be a removal man, laughs Rupert.
03:02
All right, then.
03:03
How about asking them if we can carry anything into the cottage?
03:07
Rupert goes up to one of the men.
03:10
Hello.
03:10
My chums and I would like to help you with the moving, he offers.
03:15
Sorry, but you're not allowed to lift the furniture up.
03:17
Why is that?
03:20
Inquires Rupert.
03:21
It's to safeguard the men.
03:23
You see, if anything gets broken, we're responsible.
03:27
My company would have to either replace the goods or pay for them.
03:31
You run along and play, smiles the man kindly.
03:34
Oh, I see, remarks Rupert.
03:37
Er, by the way, can you tell me where the owners are, please?
03:41
They're on their way here.
03:43
I've been informed that they'll arrive this afternoon.
03:46
I must get on.
03:48
There's nothing for us to do here.
03:50
Let's come back later, suggests Margot.
03:53
All right, let's go then.
03:55
Rupert and the two chums arrive at the river bank, when suddenly they hear a call.
04:04
Help!
04:06
Help!
04:08
Did you hear that?
04:10
Yes, says Margot, a little bit scared.
04:14
Where are you going?
04:16
Rupert walks on ahead.
04:18
I think it came from the end of the bank.
04:21
Listen carefully in case they call again.
04:24
Rupert is interrupted.
04:26
Help!
04:28
Help!
04:31
Oh, please, somebody, come and help me, cries a boy, hanging on to a bush.
04:37
Gosh, there's a boy down there, and he's trapped, exclaims Rupert anxiously.
04:43
What are you going to do, Rupert?
04:45
Asks Bill, looking down at the boy.
04:48
Hold on, whatever you do, Rupert calls down to him.
04:52
Try not to move too much.
04:53
I can't hold on much longer.
04:57
The earth is getting soft, and it's moving round the bush roots.
05:01
Hurry, please.
05:04
There's only one thing for me to do.
05:06
That's to lean over the side.
05:07
And Bill, you and Margot, hold on to my legs.
05:11
Oh, Rupert, I don't like it.
05:14
Bill is anxious.
05:16
Come on, get hold of my legs, and don't let go, urges Rupert.
05:20
Can you let me down a little bit more, Bill?
05:26
No, Rupert, that's all there is of you, shouts Bill.
05:30
I don't seem to be able to reach him, shouts Rupert.
05:33
Don't move, he says to the boy.
05:36
I'll think of something.
05:38
I'm going back up the bank and won't be long.
05:41
Pull me up, please, Bill.
05:42
Oh, puffs Rupert.
05:48
If only we had some rope.
05:50
But we haven't, Rupert.
05:53
Whatever are we going to do?
05:56
Oh, look.
05:57
Here comes Pong Ping.
05:59
I wonder what he wants.
06:01
Oh, France.
06:03
Why are you all looking so unhappy?
06:05
We're trying to rescue a boy down that river bank,
06:09
says Rupert, pointing towards the boy.
06:11
Can I be of any assistance?
06:13
Asks Pong Ping.
06:15
Have you got a piece of rope by any chance?
06:18
I haven't rocked.
06:20
I'll lay a piece of string in my pocket.
06:22
Oh, dear.
06:23
That won't be much good, says Rupert sadly.
06:26
In my other pocket, I've got my magic wand.
06:32
Rupert turns to watch Pong Ping.
06:35
Upon the ground, he throws the string.
06:38
Now watch.
06:39
And this will work, I hope.
06:40
See the string turn into a rope.
06:44
Hurry up, calls the boy.
06:47
I won't be long now.
06:50
Rupert puts his feet up against the bank to guide himself.
06:53
Let some rope out.
06:55
Tell us when you're with the boy, calls Bill.
06:58
All right.
06:59
Let a little bit more rope out.
07:02
I'm nearly there.
07:03
There's not much rope left, Rupert, shouts Bill.
07:08
Don't be frightened, encourages Rupert.
07:10
Get on my back and don't struggle.
07:13
And for goodness sake, don't let go of me once you leave that bush.
07:18
Hold on tight, Bill.
07:19
We mustn't let them go, says Pong Ping.
07:22
Bill, stop to pull us up, calls Rupert to his chums.
07:29
Rupert and the boy begin to move towards the top of the bank.
07:32
Oh, oh, oh, gasps Bill.
07:36
Here they come.
07:41
We've made it, sighs Rupert thankfully.
07:44
Thank goodness you're safe, says Margot, smiling.
07:49
How ever did you get down there, asks Rupert.
07:52
I was kicking a ball along the edge, went to save it and, well, you know the rest.
07:58
I landed halfway down the bank.
08:01
Thanks very much for all your trouble.
08:03
My name's John.
08:05
My name's Rupert.
08:06
And he introduces his chums to the boy and returns the rope to Pong Ping.
08:10
Even a piece of string comes in handy sometimes.
08:16
I must hurry back home now.
08:18
George, my pet dragon, is waiting for his tea.
08:21
Cheerio, everyone.
08:23
Where do you live, John?
08:25
I'm not sure of the number of the cottage, because we're moving in today.
08:29
We can take him to his cottage.
08:32
Just as the men are about to leave, the chums arrive at the cottage.
08:37
We're off now, John.
08:38
Tell your mother that everything is inside.
08:41
Here comes my mother.
08:43
When John's mother comes on the scene, she asks her son where he has been.
08:48
He says, but for this rescue team, I would have fallen in the stream.
08:53
Well, I'm glad to see you safe.
08:56
I must go inside and put up the curtains, says John's mother, going towards one of the cottages.
09:02
But, but, but that's the wrong cottage.
09:10
The furniture's all next door, stammers Rupert.
09:17
John's mother turns in surprise.
09:19
Oh, there must be some mistake, she says.
09:22
This is our cottage.
09:24
What can I do?
09:26
The men have gone now.
09:28
We'll help you move the furniture, offers Rupert.
09:31
Come on, Bill.
09:32
You want to be a removal man?
09:34
Well, here's your chance.
09:36
Oh, good, Rupert, replies Bill happily.
09:39
All the chums and John go to move things to the house next door.
09:45
Carpets, beds, chairs and a table.
09:48
Each carries as much as he is able.
09:50
There's only one thing left for us to do now.
09:54
What's that, Rupert?
09:56
Asks Bill.
09:57
All come to my cottage to tea.
09:59
Hooray!
10:00
Hooray!
10:01
Hooray!
10:03
Mrs. Bear has plenty of cakes for all.
10:07
John and his mother are pleased that they have such friendly neighbours.
10:10
Well, Mummy, you said that you wanted to help the new people who were moving in.
10:15
And now you are.
10:20
Rupert, Rupert de Bel, everyone's telling his name.
10:39
Rupert, Rupert de Bel, everyone's coming and joined in all of his name.
10:48
Rupert.
10:50
Rupert, Rupert de Bel, everyone's coming and joined in all of his name.
11:03
Rupert.
