00:00Today, Rupert nearly gets a new neighbour, in Rupert and the House That Never Was.
00:16There's a little bear that 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 of the things that he's done, and he's going to share them all with you, so come along.
00:44Rupert, Rupert the Bell, everyone sing his name.
00:50Rupert, Rupert the Bell, everyone come and join.
00:56It's been lovely weather in Nutwood, and Rupert Bear is doing his homework in the garden.
01:10But he's easily distracted by a passer-by.
01:15Hello Drizzle, what are you doing in Nutwood?
01:18I hope we're not going to have a change in the weather.
01:22Drizzle works for the Wizard of the Wind, who controls the weather from his castle in the Might-Have-Been Mountains.
01:28No, I've finished work for the day, and I'm just having a look round, private-like.
01:35Rupert is curious.
01:37What do you mean, having a look round, private-like?
01:41Well, er...
01:42Oh, well, Rupert, I'm looking for a nice little place to live, a house.
01:47Not too big, and somewhere here in Nutwood.
01:49I like Nutwood.
01:50It's a nice place, very pleasant.
01:52Drizzle, you don't mean to say you've had another row with the Wizard.
01:57No, no, no, nothing like that.
01:59It's just that I'm tired of living at the castle.
02:01You see, living there means that the Wizard can call me out at any time he likes.
02:05Because I'm there, aren't I?
02:07Yes, I see what you mean.
02:09You want to finish about tea time each day.
02:12Right, and then I want to go home, finished for the day.
02:16Have you seen any nice houses to let in Nutwood, Rupert?
02:18No, there aren't any houses to let in Nutwood.
02:22I heard Daddy say there's a waiting list.
02:25Yes, I thought so.
02:27Well, you've got your pencil, Andy, Rupert.
02:30Draw me a nice house on this piece of paper.
02:32Not too big, but a nice comfortable bedroom upstairs.
02:35I enjoy a good night's sleep.
02:37And Drizzle produces a piece of paper, which he hands to Rupert,
02:41who thinks it's good fun.
02:43Oh, yes, this is better than doing homework.
02:45Look, look, tiles on the roof.
02:50Now the bedroom window.
02:52And another.
02:53Oh, bother, I've broken my pencil.
02:56I won't be a minute.
02:58Rupert goes indoors to sharpen his pencil.
03:00And he's surprised when he returns to find that Drizzle has gone.
03:08Drizzle?
03:09Drizzle?
03:11Where are you?
03:13That's funny.
03:14I wonder where he's gone.
03:16I haven't finished the drawing yet.
03:18I'll have to look down the lane.
03:21Hi, Rupert.
03:22What are you doing?
03:24I've finished my homework.
03:25Shall we go to the common and play?
03:28Hello, Bill.
03:29Did you see Drizzle come down this way?
03:32No.
03:33Why should I?
03:35Rupert tells Bill about Drizzle and his search for a house.
03:39Hello, hello.
03:40What's the inventor up to now?
03:42That's a long pole he's carrying.
03:44Stop.
03:46Oh, oh, right.
03:47Constable Rowler.
03:49What have I done now?
03:50I haven't been speeding.
03:52I've paid my road tax and I've got a television license.
03:56I think.
03:57What's wrong?
03:59Now, sir, I'm glad you haven't been speeding and paid your tax
04:02and that you think you've got a TV license.
04:04Nevertheless, that pole, sir, it sticks out too far at the back, sir.
04:09Proper as it is, sir.
04:11No, Constable, I haven't thought of that.
04:14Yes, of course, it is dangerous, isn't it?
04:17But now what can I do?
04:19I want this pole at my workshop for an aerial.
04:23Well, sir, all is not lost.
04:25As it happens, the law does provide for such cases.
04:28All you have to do is tie a flag or similar piece of material to the end
04:32so that people can see it.
04:34Nay, Presto, you're a law-abiding citizen again.
04:38Oh, Constable, you're so clever.
04:40You ought to be made a sergeant.
04:42Oh, I wouldn't say that, sir.
04:44Now, I wonder if we can find a piece of rag lying about somewhere.
04:49At just that moment, a slight gust of wind blows the piece of paper
04:53on which Rupert was drawing right down to the gate.
04:57Well, I never look.
04:58A piece of paper will do just as well.
05:00Oh, really, really?
05:02Oh, well, I never.
05:03Now, what can we fix it on with?
05:06I am finished yet, sir.
05:08Ever since I was a Boy Scout, I've carried a piece of string and a safety pin.
05:12Now we can use them both.
05:14First time in 40 years.
05:16Oh, thank you so much, Sergeant.
05:20Soon the inventor's on his way, and the Constable proudly returns to the station.
05:24I'm obeying the law, I'm obeying the law.
05:29Look, I've got a piece of paper tied on the end.
05:32That's the law.
05:33Hey, that piece of paper, it's...
05:37Look, Rupert, what's that house doing in the field opposite your gate?
05:41I've never seen it there before.
05:43I've never seen it there before.
05:44Well, when did they build it?
05:45I've never noticed it before, either.
05:49Let's take a look.
05:50When they get closer, Rupert sees that there's something strange about the building.
05:57Yes.
05:59Tiles on the roof, and only one window.
06:01But this is the house I drew for Drizzle, and I didn't finish it.
06:06That's why it only has one window.
06:08I didn't draw the others.
06:10Look, Rupert, Drizzle's moved in already.
06:13See at the window.
06:15I wonder what he's getting so excited about.
06:19Perhaps he's locked himself in.
06:21Yes, and now he'll be late for work in the morning.
06:24The wizard won't like that.
06:27Perhaps he really is locked in.
06:29Oh, Bill, I see what it is.
06:31Because there's no door.
06:33I didn't draw a door, so there is no door.
06:36He can't get out because I didn't draw a door.
06:40Well, you'd better draw one now, Rupert.
06:43Yes, come on.
06:44The drawing's in the garden where I left it.
06:47Rupert and Bill hurry back to the garden,
06:50only to find that the drawing has gone from the table.
06:53It must be here somewhere.
06:55In a bush or somewhere.
06:57It can't just disappear.
06:59Well, it has, Rupert.
07:00It's not here.
07:03I'm obeying the law.
07:05Look, I've got a piece of paper tied on the end.
07:07That's the law.
07:09It's tied to the inventor's pole.
07:11I remember now.
07:12Come on, into the chariot.
07:14Where are we going, Rupert?
07:16Wee, up we go.
07:21Bill is enjoying this little caper,
07:23but Rupert must get the piece of paper.
07:26Onto that house he has to draw a few more lines to make a door.
07:31That he knows without a doubt.
07:33Until he does, Drizzle can't get out.
07:36There he is.
07:37Down there.
07:38Get ready to grab that piece of paper, Bill.
07:47Okay, a bit closer.
07:50Right, got it.
07:53Hey, come back, Rupert Bear.
07:54That's my warning flag.
07:57I'm breaking the law now.
07:59The inventor is most annoyed,
08:01and he takes out his handkerchief
08:03and waves it to attract Rupert's attention.
08:06Rupert Bear, come back.
08:07Come back.
08:08I don't want to be a criminal.
08:11Oh, my handkerchief.
08:13Oh, silly me.
08:15I should have used that in the first place
08:17instead of borrowing a piece of paper.
08:19I'll just tie it on the pole.
08:23Here's my pencil, Bill.
08:24Draw a door.
08:26Then when we get there, Drizzle should be out.
08:28Okay, Rupert.
08:29Bill draws the door onto the house
08:31while Rupert flies them back.
08:34But Drizzle isn't out.
08:36Drizzle can't get out.
08:38The door is too small.
08:40Cool.
08:41This is the best you can do, Rupert.
08:43How do you expect me to get through this?
08:44It's like the door to a rabbit touch.
08:46Come on, think big.
08:56All right.
08:57Just a minute.
08:58Stand back.
09:03And Rupert draws a door fit for a palace.
09:11That's more like it.
09:13I didn't like that one little bit, Rupert Bear.
09:16I changed my mind about living in Nutwood.
09:19Oh, I'm sorry, Drizzle.
09:20I didn't mean to put you off living here.
09:23No, my mind is made up.
09:25I've got a lovely little place back there in the castle
09:28and I can't think what made me want to leave.
09:31I'm most ungrateful.
09:32What about the house?
09:35Yes, we can't just leave it there
09:37if you're not going to live in it.
09:38No, you're right.
09:40Give us that bit of paper.
09:43Drizzle takes the piece of paper
09:45and rubs it with his hand.
09:49Then takes off his hat
09:50and throws it down on the ground.
09:53Grow, hat, grow.
09:59Good boy.
09:59I'm going home.
10:07What a pity that the house across the way has gone.
10:10I was so looking forward to having some neighbours.
10:14Yes, it must have been the house that never was.
10:17Rupert, Rupert the Bell
10:35Everyone's telling his name
10:38Rupert, Rupert the Bell
10:42Everyone come and join
10:44In all of his games
10:48Rupert, Rupert the Bell
10:52Everyone come and join
10:55In all of his games
11:00Rupert
11:06Rupert, Rupert the Bell
11:08Rupert of the Bell
