[Music]

everybody say hello

[Music]

[Music]

a company

um you missed a bit in the corner there

that's it oh hello there hey something

very exciting is happening today isn't

it

what sweet what is it what

you're excited yes i know you're excited

now just settle down to settle down come

on off you go

where were we oh yes yes the fact is

that we're all going away for the

weekend a whole lot of us we're going to

visit uncle dennis and auntie beryl down

south in dorking

what sweet what what

yes i know you're excited you've told us

now just settle down go on just settle

down off you go he's been like that for

two days mind you it is very exciting

isn't it because for the entire weekend

sochi and co

will be closed

he's excited

there that's just about it don't want to

take too much we're only there for the

weekend uh listen it's no good you two

standing there gorping at me like that

i'm not gonna do your packing for you if

you want something to go in the case

then your jolly will have to do it

yourselves

don't tell me sweep you're excited

you're excited yes yes we all know that

sleep but i recommend that you put

excitement to one side for a moment

concentrate on packing

well just a cotton picking minute there

i hope you're not thinking that you're

going to put that lot into this suitcase

are you

on top of all my pretty dresses

well you've got another thing coming you

can julie will get your own suitcases

and pack them elsewhere

he's excited

do you know something

i'm excited

i'm not as excited to sweep of course

but i am excited i think it's packing

that does it because when you're packing

the suitcase that means that you're

actually going

you know i really enjoy packing

suitcases i know some people don't but i

really do because i do it all very very

neatly fold the clothes very very

carefully and use lots and lots of

tissue paper and the result

a beautifully packed suitcase

voila

oh

[Music]

so whilst i'm upstairs dealing with my

suitcase is downstairs dealing

with his

sweeps there as well and sweep is still

very excited

see what i mean he's excited

well sue told that he had to get

his own case which is what he's done and

being a magical bear it seems that he's

got a magical suitcase just watch and

you'll see what i mean

[Music]

um

[Music]

[Music]

hmm

[Music]

[Music]

a job well done it doesn't seem possible

that he could get all that stuff into

that one case does it yes you'd think

the case would burst open and everything

would just come spilling out

and you'd be right

scampi meanwhile is packing his suitcase

instead of packing a selection of

clothes for the weekend he's decided to

pack a selection of white mice

the thing is

the mice don't seem as keen on the idea

of a weekend away as the rest of us

do they

[Music]

ah here's sweep doing his packing sweep

is still very excited

[Music]

sweet carefully puts his clothes in his

suitcase

well done sweet that's a very neat job

[Music]

what is it

oh he's forgotten his bow

he can't go away for a weekend without

his favorite bone

oh oh sweep um

that case isn't going to close now

that bone is too big

something will have to be left behind

[Music]

that's my boy

three two

one

it's time for the off i thought this

moment would never arrive but it has

anyway i have closed the shop i've

locked it up put the clothes sign in the

window and now i've got this milk bottle

with little messages for the milkman no

milk for the weekend and so it's a case

of

bye bye business searing after the

weekend by the high and so how are we

all feeling

yes i bet you are anyway have you all

got everything because once we leave we

are not returning so have you all got

your suitcases yeah we have matthew but

where's yours

oh

you typically need that as if i'm

getting my suitcase

do you know something i'd forget my head

if it was loose

one suitcase got the suitcase here we go

right

and now that we have all got our

suitcases let's leave shall we

don't don't tell me you're excited yes

no

why are you moving around like that

what's the matter

you want to go to the toilet

right well come on come on down get down

get down come on come along come on heal

heal heal

god don't don't be long sweet okay we're

trying to set off all right

it's always one isn't there ah what have

you checked that the gas is turned off

gas good thought come on case

better check the gas we haven't got any

gas we're all electric

so we're all electric

anyway we simply must set off now

because if we don't get going we

shouldn't get there at all so no no no

no no bots no ifs we are leaving we're

leaving now suitcases go go go go go

come on we've got a long way to go and

scampi would you just shut the gate on

the way out please thank you

[Music]

uh

[Music]

hey

[Music]

thank you

[Music]

oh dear that pennies just dropped

sweep has just realized what's happened

they've gone off and left him

sweep is

home alone

it's no good the door's definitely

locked

he could be here all weekend

sweep wonders what will happen when they

discover he's missing

in his mind's eye he pictures them being

very upset

the poor little dog how could we do such

a thing

[Music]

or possibly they won't discover he's

missing

is there a is there something missing

city

nothing you can think of

it's curious but i'm sure there's some

things missing but i can't quite put my

finger on it

or possibly they left him here

on purpose

[Music]

nice move matthew you know i never could

stand the good eye he's horrible

cheers this is ridiculous

think sweep

i've seen films where people have been

left home alone

it won't be long before someone comes to

my rescue

but until someone does come to rescue

him sweep decides to have a little snack

and since i'm not there to keep an eye

on him he can eat whatever he likes

and he likes

jelly babies

crisps

sausages

chocolate beans

and

cream buns

suddenly

sweep has a dreadful thought

what would i say

if i were there with him uh uh uh

naughty naughty sweep you shouldn't be

eating all those things you'll make

yourself poorly and if you do don't come

running to me because i'll just say i

told you so

matthew i hate to spoil your boring

parent impression but sweet doesn't need

to hear this well yes he does too it's

for his own good i mean if he eats all

of that there'll be tears before bedtime

right captain cliche i didn't mean it

like that what i mean is that since

we're both figments of sweeps

imagination if he doesn't like what he's

hearing he can stop it if he stops

thinking about us then we'll simply go

away

[Music]

yes really

[Music]

two hours have passed

it's got dark and it seems that sweepers

survived tea and now he's playing with

sooty's water pistols

he wonders if would allow him to

use his water p*stol if he were here

no

just as i thought

city would not wanted to play with the

water p*stol

sweep wonders what scampi would feel if

he were here would he think it was okay

for sweep to play with the water

p*stol oh

apparently he would think it was okay

surprise surprise

just for the fun of it

sweep wonders what would happen if

scampi had soot his water p*stol and

didn't

nice sh**ting scampi

sweep wonders where all the water went

you know

it's fascinating the things you can do

with your imagination

gosh

what's that think sweep

well it could always be a burglar

couldn't it sweep

[Music]

[Applause]

scary don't knock any more dustbins over

of course be terrified he probably

thinks there's a burglar here

so have you got the shot key quickly

no i haven't got it you put it in your

pocket matthew i saw you did i oh i

can't find it now sue i do hope that

sweet's all right don't worry i'd be

absolutely fine sue he's probably made

himself a bit of tea and had a bath and

watched a bit of telly he's probably

tucked up in bed by now which is where

i'd like to be but look i can't find

this key

if i get the ladder will you climb up it

yes okay it's a deal i'll get a ladder

i'll get another it's only over here

right here oh

god

we're gonna

we got all the way to birmingham before

we realized that we hadn't got him it's

probably when i went inside to check the

gas

where are you

don't creep up on people like that

ladder you'll come alright okay

keep going

my bedroom window is open about six

inches it should be easy to get in

well i'm right about one thing

sweep does think he's being burgled but

he's seen films where things like this

happen and he knows exactly what to do

whoa whoa what's up

oh there you are thank you

are you all right thank goodness the

rubbish broke his fall okay how are we

going to get in

don't do that you'll disturb the

neighbors you know what they're like we

need we need something to uh throw up at

the window to attract sweeps attention

we could

little building bricks good boy scandi

get out the dustbin quickly leave this

to me leave it to me

you know once sweep gets something into

his head it's awfully difficult to shift

it

and sweep has got it into his head but

there's a burglar out there throwing

things at the window

so he decides to dampen the burglar

spirit

look

look at the stage of me

just look at me i'm soaking wet look

never

[Music]

here i'll deal with it just remembered

spare key i'll leave it for security

purposes just inside here

well i was right i knew there was a key

hanging behind a letterbox

what i didn't know

was a sweep was there

with a large pot of blue paint

can you feel the key matthew

no i can't see but

my hand feels strangely wet yes well

it's probably the water running down

your arm yes you're right so yes you're

right there's a oh hang on hang on

look at this

i finally located the bit of string

[Music]

come on let's get inside shall we

yeah

[Music]

well sweeps feeling pretty pleased with

himself

single-handedly he seems to have fought

off a dangerous burglar

he wonders what i would say to him

oh you are a clever boy sweep i'm so

proud of you who's a clever clever boy

that paint was brilliant

it's not as good as the net
