00:00Today, Rupert looks after George, the little dragon, which is more difficult than he expects,
00:13in Rupert and the Hiccuping Dragon.
00:17There's a little bear, like you've never seen before, who's a lot of fun.
00:23Children everywhere, so to love him more and more, he's the number one.
00:31There's a million stories to be told, of the things that he's done.
00:38And he's gonna share them all with you, so come along.
00:45Rupert, Rupert the Bell, everyone sing his name.
00:50Rupert, Rupert the Bell, everyone come and join, in all of his game.
01:06It's a lovely morning, and Rupert is busy helping Mr. Bear in the garden.
01:12All right, says Mr. Bear, I think the wheelbarrow's full enough now.
01:16Rupert trundles it carefully down the garden path, when...
01:22Squeaks George, the little dragon.
01:25Oh, I am sorry, says Rupert, rubbing the little dragon's paw.
01:30I didn't see you there.
01:32Hello, Pong Ping, he adds as the little peep hurries into the garden after George.
01:37Hello, Rupert, could you do me a great favor?
01:42Why, yes, if I can.
01:44Well, would you look after George for me, just for a little while, he adds.
01:49But I have to go into town.
01:52Now, please, please keep him outside, says Mrs. Bear nervously.
01:56George behaves beautifully at first, and follows Rupert and the wheelbarrow up and down the path,
02:04until he spots Mr. Bear's pipe.
02:09Oh, that's funny, says Mr. Bear.
02:12Where's my pipe gone?
02:14I'm sure I put it there.
02:16Rupert swings round.
02:18Alas, too late.
02:21Oh, dear, George has eaten it.
02:24But, Mr. Bear is not pleased at all, and neither is George, for he now has hiccups.
02:36The more he hiccups, the more he puffs.
02:43Oh, do take him away, he's scorching my snapdragons, cries Mr. Bear.
02:49So Rupert takes him indoors.
02:51But,
02:51Oh, Rupert, not in here, he's scorching the carpet, says Mrs. Bear, coughing.
03:00Quick, bring him into the kitchen, and give him a glass of water.
03:04Which doesn't help at all.
03:10Try holding your breath, suggests Rupert, while I count to twenty.
03:15One, two, three, four, five.
03:22Hello, Rupert, calls Pudgy cheerfully at the door.
03:26Hello, says Rupert, forgetting to count.
03:29Are you coming out to play on the common?
03:31Pudgy asks.
03:32Bill and Edward want to play secret service.
03:36George is still holding his breath.
03:37Let's play, um, oh, you poor little dragon.
03:44For George has now turned bright purple.
03:47Oh, you can breathe now.
03:50George lets go with a deep sigh.
03:52My mummy always gives me a spoonful of sugar.
04:04Try that, suggests Pudgy.
04:07All right.
04:08Rupert holds out the spoon.
04:11There, says Pudgy proudly.
04:13You see?
04:13Pudgy is disappointed.
04:20I expect dragons are different to people.
04:25Why, that's it.
04:26We'll take him to see his mother.
04:28Come on.
04:31She lives with the Emperor of Games.
04:34Heep, heep, heep, says the little dragon,
04:39pointing his nose over the side.
04:42So Rupert follows George's nose.
04:44On and on the chariot goes.
04:47Over Nutwood, and further still,
04:49over valley and over hill,
04:52following the nose of the little rascal
04:54towards the Games' Emperor's castle.
04:58Heep, heep, heep, heep.
05:02At length, they reach the Emperor's castle gates.
05:06Why, Rupert, the Emperor will be pleased to see you,
05:09cries the sentry,
05:10flinging open the gates for the astonished little bear.
05:13That's funny, he says as they land.
05:16But the Emperor seems to be expecting us.
05:19The little dragon rushes into the castle,
05:22with Rupert and Pudgy close behind.
05:24This is a giant chess board,
05:26Rupert explains to Pudgy,
05:28and the Emperor plays chess with real people.
05:31Look, there's the White Queen.
05:33Good morning, Your Majesty.
05:35Oh, Rupert, cries the White Queen.
05:39The Emperor will be pleased to see you.
05:42He has been unable to play chess for days, she adds.
05:45He's been so worried.
05:47So I've been knitting a scarf.
05:49Do you like it?
05:50Oh, yes, it's lovely, he says politely.
05:54It's yours, then.
05:55Oh, well, thank you, says Rupert,
05:59as she puts it round his neck.
06:01It's very, very long,
06:02and Rupert finds it rather difficult to walk.
06:08Oh, sorry, says Pudgy, standing on it by mistake.
06:13Who's that, Rupert? he whispers,
06:16pointing to a man sitting with his feet in a bowl of water.
06:19That's the Black King, Rupert explains.
06:22His feet hurt because he's always standing.
06:26Follow me, orders the White Queen.
06:32The Emperor is sitting sadly at the entrance to a cave,
06:36nursing a dragon's head in his lap.
06:40Rupert!
06:41But, but how did you know?
06:44Mother Dragon is ill, explains the Emperor.
06:47Her fire has gone out,
06:49and we have been unable to light it for her,
06:52and I thought you might be able to help.
06:54You have a way with dragons.
06:57Me?
06:58Rupert is surprised.
07:00Poor George is most upset,
07:02and hiccups more than ever,
07:04rushing round his mother, blowing out smoke.
07:07He blows out so much smoke,
07:09that sun goes up his mother's nose,
07:11and...
07:11She sneezes so loudly and so suddenly
07:17that both Rupert and George leap up into the air,
07:20startled out of their wits,
07:22and George stops hiccoughing.
07:25The dragon's fire is alight, cries the Emperor.
07:30Oh, thank you, Rupert.
07:32You have cured my favourite dragon.
07:35Oh, but it wasn't really me,
07:36predests Rupert.
07:37It was George.
07:38Oh, but you brought George,
07:41explains the Emperor delightedly.
07:44Rupert looks round.
07:46Where's Podgy?
07:48I expect he's helping the White Queen.
07:51She is preparing a small snack
07:53to refresh you after your long journey.
07:55I haven't seen Podgy
07:57since you both went towards the dragon's cave,
07:59says the White Queen.
08:02Excuse me, Your Majesty.
08:03Have you seen my friend Podgy?
08:05Rupert asks the Black King.
08:07No.
08:08Oh, my poor feet.
08:10Bless you.
08:12Both Rupert and the Black King
08:14cry simultaneously.
08:16Oh, I thought it was you.
08:18No, says Rupert.
08:20I thought it was you.
08:22Ah, tishu.
08:23Oh, it's coming from the Black Castle.
08:26Rupert runs towards it
08:27and opens the door.
08:32Podgy!
08:36That's where the Emperor
08:37keeps the Black Pepper
08:38for his dragons,
08:40explains the Black King,
08:41handing Podgy
08:42a large black handkerchief.
08:44Oh, does he keep the White Pepper
08:47in the White Castle, then?
08:48asks Rupert.
08:50Yes, that's right.
08:51But, Podgy,
08:53what are you doing in there?
08:56Where's the big dragon?
08:59She's outside, of course,
09:02chuckles Rupert.
09:03Come and have something to eat,
09:05calls the Emperor.
09:06Rupert and Podgy
09:07hurry over to the table.
09:08In view of your excellent work here, Rupert,
09:11he continues.
09:12And as George
09:14ate your illustrious father's pipe,
09:16I would be honoured
09:17if you would accept
09:18this humble gift.
09:20And the Emperor
09:21holds out
09:22a beautifully carved pipe.
09:26Rupert's pleased.
09:27It's just what Daddy needs.
09:32I'll go and get George.
09:35The little dragon
09:36is sitting beside his mother,
09:38who is purring contentedly
09:40like a giant kettle.
09:41Come on, George,
09:43says Rupert.
09:45Goodbye, Mother Dragon.
09:46As Rupert's chariot
09:58lands in his garden,
10:00Kong Ping
10:01hurries up the garden path.
10:03We've been to see
10:04George's mother,
10:05Rupert explains.
10:06And the Emperor
10:07gave me this for you, Daddy,
10:08he continues.
10:10Mr Bear is pleased.
10:12What a lovely pipe.
10:14It's just what I need.
10:16Rupert, Rupert the Bell,
10:36everyone's in his name.
10:40Rupert, Rupert the Bell,
10:43everyone's come and join
10:46in all of his games.
10:51Rupert, Rupert the Bell,
