Operation Song For Christmas is go!

Go, go!

- Mr Poppy?

- Come on, jump aboard.

- What's this?

- We've got to go,

otherwise Mrs Bevan'll turn up

and we won't get away.

- I told you, we are not going to Wales.

- Get on the bus!

No, no! Back in the school.

Get back in the school right now.

You need to calm down, Mr Peterson.

It's not just you you're affecting,

it's the baby.

- I...

- Come on!

Mr Poppy...

Agh!

Right, come on. Back inside, come on.

Back inside the school.

Mr Peterson, this is for your own good.

Bundle!

Mr Poppy!

Scream if you want to go faster!

Mr Poppy, stop this bus!

Warming up, warming up, warming up

Warming up, warming up,

warming up, warming up

We're warming up our voices

OK, everyone, let's go and win

A Song For Christmas!

Jingle Bells

On the bus, on the bus, on the bus.

.. open sleigh

Sleigh, hey!

Come in.

Oh, morning, Ryan. Morning, Keith.

Thank you very much.

So... What is this?

- Full attendance.

- Full... Excellent.

Thank you very much, Alistair,

- and...

- William.

- Keith.

- Mason.

William and Mason.

Thank you. Shut the door.

Now...

- OK, you can release him now.

- Thank you.

Sit down.

Right, Mr Poppy, stop the bus.

- No!

- Stop the bus right now.

- Why?

- OK, I'm calling the school.

I'm not going to turn the bus...

- Bob.

- No, no, no.

Give me that back. Give me that back!

That's my phone!

That... My...

- That is not good.

- Just calm down, Mr Peterson.

Listen, have you any idea

how serious this is?

Look at it. Look at this.

Do you want to go to Song For Christmas?

Yeah!

My wife is at home, pregnant,

with a baby that could arrive any second

and I have no phone, no way of getting

in touch. Please turn this bus around.

Just tell her in the morning

you had a sleepover.

Why would I have a sleepover?

Mr Maddens used to have sleepovers

at mine.

I'm a grown man.

Grown men don't have sleepovers.

Yes, they do. And midnight feasts.

Oh. yeah!

Mr Poppy, my brother

is entering this competition.

- You've got a brother?

- Yeah.

Now, my brother is a world-class

classical composer and conductor.

You really want to break little Pixie's

heart? She's just lost her grandma.

This Song For Christmas

means everything to her.

How is this going to help?

Because it'll just turn all her frowns

upside down.

Here we go,

here we go, here we go, here we go

Here we go, here we go,

here we go, here we go

Here we go,

here we go, here we go, here we go

Off to sunny Wales

- Now, everyone,

I think we're going to be coming close

through a little village called Llawen.

And if you'll just come in you'll see...

Isn't that St Bernadette's, sir?

Wow.

Did you see that cool bus, sir?

Turn away, turn away.

We've got the best bus.

We've got the best bus in show business.

How much... How much would it cost me

to get you to untie me?

20?

50?

60. That's my final offer.

Quick, untie me.

Get me out of this chair.

All right, I'll get you out

but I need some money.

- I haven't got any.

- He told me he's got 60.

- Well, get it off him.

- Lucy.

- Search him.

- No, no.

- Frisk him.

- Lucy.

- Look in his back pocket.

- This is theft.

Mr Poppy!

Mrs Bevan.

Come in, Miss Rye.

- Just a quick word.

- Yes.

Most of Mr Peterson's class

appear not to have turned up for lunch.

Everything's all right in there.

Ah, naughty boy.

What are you doing standing out here,

Malcolm?

He doesn't want anyone in today.

Mr Peterson doesn't want anyone in.

Step... Just step aside.

- He doesn't...

- Thank you, Malcolm.

Mason, stop it.

Ah, Mr Peterson, where are you?

Mr Poppy. Where's Mr Pet...

Oh!

Ah! Oh!

Where's Mr Peterson?

They went to Song For Christmas.

What Song For Christmas?

I need a wee, Mr Shakespeare.

Me too!

We'll find a place to stop

and have a wee-wee.

Mr Shakespeare,

I really need a poo.

Well, hold it in,

hold it in. Don't do it on the bus.

It's just down there.

Anywhere by the hedge there. That's it.

Good. Good, good.

No, anywhere. It doesn't matter.

Do it in the road.

That's it, are you all right?

That's it, keep going.

Just come this way.

See that?

Just turn it round.

Turn it right round.

All the way, all the way.

That's it, that's it, that's it.

That's it, that's it, that's it.

Come on.

Come on, come on, come on!

That's it.

Come on, in you come.

On the bus, on the bus, on the bus.

On the bus, on the bus,

on the bus, on the bus.

On the bus, on the bus.

Turning right, turning right...

Turning right,

turning right, turning right

Aren't we going the wrong way,

Mr Shakespeare?

Wait! Mr Shakespeare!

Look, I can see a sign for the castle.

There's a little girl.

Who is that?

Hold on.

I'm going to go and find out what she...

- Who are you?

- Elena.

Where's Mr Shakespeare

and the rest of Oakmoor?

He's gone to Song For Christmas.

What, and they left you here?

He just went off without me.

- How do I know you're telling the truth?

- I always tell the truth.

- Do you think I'm ugly?

- Yes.

That's not very nice.

I was telling the truth.

All right, let me just consult my team and

then I'll be back to you with an answer.

Wait a few minutes, please, caller.

- Right, shall we let her on the bus?

- Yeah.

If she tricks us, though,

we're going to freeze her out, yes?

No...

It's your lucky day,

little Miss Shakespeare.

On you jump-

Everybody ready?

We're off!

The Man With The Bag

Next stop, the castle.

Woo-hoo!

What was that?

- Who's doing that?

- Mr Poppy, I think there might be a baby.

- What?

- There's a baby in the back.

Wow!

It's a little baby...

Aw, you're beautiful.

He's got chubby cheeks.

Hey!

Hello, little baby.

- Whose baby is this?

- Not mine.

Not mine.

I don't even have a baby.

I can't believe you've done this.

I didn't do it.

- This is really serious.

- It's got nothing to do with me.

Mr Peterson, it's a sign.

- Yes!

- It's a sign we're in a lot of trouble.

Oh, look, there's a letter.

What does it say?

"Heard you needed a baby

for Song For Christmas.

I hope I'm all right for you. "

You're more than all right.

This baby's gorgeous.

Oh, this is the best Christmas ever.

You're right, Mr Peterson.

it is the best Christmas ever.

I was being sarcastic.

You're going to help us

win Song For Christmas.

Yes, you are.

Sure you know where you're going,

Mr Poppy?

I haven't seen a sign for miles.

I know the way. It's fine.

You just need to trust me.

- Mr Poppy.

- It's this way.

- Mr Poppy.

- It's this way!

Mr Poppy, look!

Sleigh Ride

- Woo-hoo!

- What's happening?

We're swimming!

- What do you mean?

- It's a duck bus.

How cool is this?

Hey, kids,

can anyone see any sharks?

I get seasick.

Hey, everybody, look for the castle.

What's up now?

The thing's stopped working.

The needle on the thing.

- What does that mean?

- It's stopped. The needle's going down.

It's not going.

We're out of fuel?

Well, if I just give it
