Get me the government.
00:24
Mr Rusty's phone rang.
00:26
Is that the government?
00:27
Look, I've got very important news.
00:31
I've struck it.
00:33
Rich.
00:35
Mr Rusty got rather confused.
00:38
Which government did you want?
00:40
He asked, uneasily.
00:43
How many governments have we got?
00:45
Shrieked Dougal.
00:47
I've struck oil and I want them to know.
00:51
I see, yes.
00:52
You've struck oil and you want them to know.
00:55
I wonder who that is.
00:57
Now, have you got that, government?
01:00
Yes.
01:00
Yes, thank you, said Mr Rusty.
01:03
Now, I wonder what all that was about.
01:06
And when Florence arrived, he told her all about it.
01:11
Dougal says he struck oil, which is very lucky, because I want some for me lamp.
01:19
Would you take it and get some for me, please?
01:22
Florence said she would be delighted.
01:24
And when Zebedee arrived, she told him about Dougal striking oil and how she was taking Mr Rusty's lamp to be filled.
01:34
Sounds very interesting, said Zebedee.
01:37
Shall we go?
01:38
Yes, yes, just here, I think, yes.
01:48
Just put a marker up.
01:50
Make sure no fool comes along and plants anything.
01:53
Hello, old digger, said Brian.
01:57
I trust you are not staying long, said Dougal.
02:01
I have government officials calling soon and I don't want them tripping over snails.
02:06
I won't get in the way.
02:09
You're always in the way.
02:11
And this is a private oil field.
02:15
Oil field?
02:17
You heard, said Dougal.
02:19
You haven't got cloth ears.
02:20
I say, this is very exciting, said Brian.
02:25
I'll be rich.
02:27
Rich.
02:28
What do you mean, you'll be rich, shrieked Dougal.
02:33
Oh dear, we pioneers have an awful lot to put up with.
02:37
I'll be a typhoon, said Brian.
02:40
What's happening, said Ermentrude.
02:44
It's an oil field, said Brian.
02:46
We're all going to be filthy rich, especially me.
02:49
I shall be a snailionaire and I shall retire from public life.
02:53
I shall buy a yacht and a lot of toffees and have me shell painted.
02:57
Goodness, exclaimed Ermentrude.
03:00
And she got very excited at the thought of being rich.
03:03
Mmm!
03:06
Dougal, meanwhile, was preparing his pipeline.
03:10
Any moment now, he thought,
03:11
someone's going to mention pollution.
03:15
Er, Dougal, called Florence.
03:18
Now, don't tell me about pollution, said Dougal.
03:21
I know all about pollution and I'm against it.
03:24
More or less.
03:25
I don't know what you're talking about, said Florence.
03:28
I just need some oil.
03:31
Are you from the government, said Dougal.
03:34
I'm expecting a deputation.
03:37
No, I'm from Mr. Rusty, said Florence.
03:39
Well, doesn't the government know, said Dougal, faintly.
03:44
Do you mean to say I've built all this for nothing?
03:47
Oh, oh, oh.
03:49
Ermentrude and Brian got a bit worried.
03:52
Where's the oil, said Ermentrude.
03:54
I'll have a look, said Brian.
03:56
Ermentrude and Brian got a bit worried about the oil, said Dougal was quite overcome by it all.
04:05
Ermentrude and Brian got a bit worried about the oil, said Dougal was quite overcome by it all.
04:18
Oh, thank you very much, he said.
04:21
That's made me feel a little bit better.
04:25
Hey, where's all the oil then?
04:28
You'll have to find it yourself, said Dougal.
04:31
I've been let down by the government.
04:33
I'm exhausted.
04:36
I'm a husk.
04:36
I'm a husk.
04:54
I'm a husk.
05:05
I'm a husk.
05:09
I'm a husk.
