today the sun is shining brightly so it

spotted wooden company

it is very hot inside the factory and

everyone is working slowly because of

the heat

[Music]

bertha is making plastic bears that have

to be blown up like a balloon

and she's hot too

these plastic bears are so hot they are

sticking to the bag

ted these bears are coming out very hot

turn the air hose on them and cool them

down

that's better blow some air over me now

and me oh lovely

phew it's too hot to work ted

send tom to open the door wider and let

some air in

good idea tom go and open the door wider

that silly tom has gone and closed the

door go and show him how it works roy

let me show you you see tom you push

this button to open the door

and that button to close the door

open shut

[Music]

oh dear i forgot to tell him to stop

that dad stole him the door's acting

like a fan

oh that's a nice breeze

much cooler that's right tom

keep doing that

[Music]

i think tom has closed the door on

somebody

you better go and see what's happened

[Music]

roy

[Music]

oh it's you panjit and may i

ask who it is that is fleeing the kitty

goat with the door

sorry pandit we were using the door as a

fan

and you came along at the wrong time

goodness we

that is some big damage i will have to

mend that before i can move any more

boxes

come on tom we'll leave the door open

[Music]

anyone like a nice cup of tea

it's too hot for tea mrs tuck

nobody seems to want a cup of tea this

morning

i'd rather have something cold to drink

i'd rather have an ice cream

that's a very good idea i'll go and buy

some

this bear is too big for the bag

this bear is too big for the box

the bears are getting bigger and bigger

ted

that's funny i better adjust the

controls

come on what's wrong

[Music]

wow that's a really

big one i can't understand what's

happening

roy go get mr sprott

what's gone wrong here why isn't bertha

working

the bears invited a too big mr duncan

they won't go in the bag they won't go

in the box

you see it's almost as big as you are

my word that is a big bet

and they're getting bigger all the time

and they stand up

by themselves no it's me mr sprott

i'm holding it up ah yes i see

sorry well keep holding it up while i

measure it

and then uh wide by uh

tall thank you mr duncan you can put it

down now

i can't understand what's happening

i think that that bear is four times

bigger than it ought to be

and i know that but what can i do about

it

uh well now let me see

oh man it is hot in here and let's have

a look at the control board

ah now what can we do here uh what can

we do here

[Music]

um

yeah well there we are

the problem

my word that is the hugest bear i've

ever seen

what's got wrong mr sprout well now

what is happening is this these bears

are being made out of plastic

and when plastic gets hot it's stretchy

today because of the weather

bathroom is so hot that each bear she

makes is being stretched bigger and

bigger

this is why we have this enormous bet

what should we do with it mr sprout

yeah well now let me see if it's all

right and uh

no holes in it we could send it along to

shopkeeper who's selling our balloon

bears

he could blow it up and stand it outside

your shop as an advertisement

yes that's a very good idea mr sprott

thank you mr duncan shall i blow it up

to make sure there are no holes in it

yes do it'll be most interesting to see

how big it is

catch it roy

hold on to it roy my word that is a big

one

ladder to get it down
