Hurry up!

Hi, everybody! Oh, it's

I have everything. I

think I have everything.

Yes, yes, yes. I have everything.

- Your smokestack is crooked.

- Oh, it is? ls this better?

- A little more to the left.

I'm not interrupting you, am I?

- Oh, no, not at all.

- It's wonderful to meet you, Simon!

I'm sure it is. And you are?

Oh, no.

Yo, yo, yo. Check it. MC Ajay

And the train's on

Leaving the station, it is on time

Wave the flag and drop the go sign

Departing 'caster

Station, 0-6-Double-0...

All right! All right! Thats enough.

Stop it!

Stop!

Sorry.

Are you winding me up? Was that for real?

rainwerks? It's more like rain Wrecks.

mm.

Judges?

Er, I rather thought the trains were nice.

Choo-choo!

- Oh, yes, I thought it was rather sweet.

- Invaluable insight.

Obviously this act has jumped the track.

Simon says, "Next."

OK, thank you, Simon. Thank you!

DJ Ajay Fresh, out! Peace.

Why is there always a sheep act?

Alas, poor Yorick!

What's all this then?

Oh! I thought I was having a nightmare.

Oh, wait, I still am.

Horrible! Next.

Next.

Bunnies are cuddly, the

large and the small,

but I like the chocolate

ones best of them all.

Next.

- "Call me Ishmael."

Next.

Nearly there.

Well, this is going about

as well as I expected.

Next.

- Next.

- Im all right.

Hello? Next, please.

Live television show going on here.

- Thats you, Dad.

- Next.

Yeah, well, erm...

I was thinking...

- Next.

- This isn't the best time...

Don't worry. You'll be brilliant!

- He doesn't seem to be in a very good mood.

- Next!

Just think of it as singing in the shower,

only in front of a lot of people.

With clothes on.

So, you're a...

Let me guess, a postman?

Uh... Erm... How did you know that?

Wild guess. Name?

Uh... Oh. Pat?

Postman Pat?

Oh! Look at that, Edwin.

One of our team is on the telly.

Isnt that lovely?

A robot would never embarrass

the company like this.

Well, Postman Pat, what will you be

dazzling us with this evening?

Well... I thought... I thought I'd sing

my wife Sara's favourite song.

Ooh, Im all a-tingle.

Uh... So should I just start then?

Well, that is why you got all dressed up.

Oh! Ooh!

Oh, my! Sorry, sorry.

Sorry, I just had a bit of a... Sorry...

No, I missed my...

I wasn't supposed to... Hang on a minute.

Can I just start again, please?

Please, take your time.

I'm sure it will be worth the wait.

Dad's muffed it, hasn't he, Mum?

Late one night I awoke from a dream

I kept to myself until now

And I saw your face

Somehow it seems

I lost you somewhere in the crowd

Where will I go?

What would I do?

Who would I be if I didn't have you?

In your eyes

See what the world can be

In your smile

The simple things sing to me

Without you I'm lost

Like a man at sea

And with you is where

I am meant to be

I wake every morning

Rising to shine

Oh, take on the day

With your hand in mine

I'm not alone but it seems

I'm dreaming of home

as I'm living the dream

In your eyes

I see what the world can be

In your smile

The simple things sing to me

Without you I'm lost

Like a man at sea

And with you is where

I am meant to be

Or I could try something else

if you didn't like that one.

All right!

Oh, yeah! That was good.

Ow! What'd you do that for?

- Don't clap for your enemy.

- But he's good.

mm. Im gonna have to keep an eye

on this Postman Pat.

Oh, my goodness. My goodness me!

They certainly seem to

like him, don't they?

Yes. Yes, they do.

I am absolutely gobsmacked!

It makes sense you're a postman, Pat,

because you know how to deliver.

You're through to the finals in London.

Congratulations, Postman Pat.

You did it, Dad! You did it!

I'm so proud, love.

"A local postman

surprised the world yesterday

"with his letter-perfect performance on

the popular talent show You're The One.

- "He deserves a real pat on the back."

- Thats kind of them.

But we're not in Italy yet.

- What was that about Italy, dear?

- Oh, erm...

I... I'll get that.

Hello?

Oh, hello, Mr Carbunkle.

It's Mr Carbunkle.

Oh, you saw that, sir?

Well, it was just a bit of a laugh.

Mmm. The company headquarters?

Immediately? Ill be right there, sir.

They want me down at Head Office.

Something about having seen me

on the show last night.

I hope they don't want

me to quit the contest.

Well, you certainly don't have to

carry on with the show, love.

- You're already a winner to me.

- Oh, thank you, Sara.

But Im sure I can explain

it all to Mr rown.

I was just trying to win a trip to Italy

for my wife.

I hope I didn't do anything wrong.

Wrong? No, certainly not, my boy!

We couldn't be happier.

How would you like to be

the Special Delivery Service's

official spokesman?

We'd like to build

a publicity campaign all around you.

Endorsements, public appearances,

merchandising.

We want to make Postman Pat synonymous

with the SDS across the whole of Britain.

It was Mr Browns idea.

It... Lt was? Oh, er...

Well, as I always say,

there's no "I" in team.

But why would anyone want these things?

I'm just an ordinary postman.

Listen to him, Edwin. Hes so modest.

He has a lot to be modest about.

- Yes. Pardon?

- Look at this, Pat.

We've even got a telly programme

in development. With puppets!

Who'd watch something like that?

Marketing has come up with

your new theme song. Have a listen.

Postman Pat! Postman Pat!

Postman Pat and his black and white cat

Catchy, isn't it?

Early in the morning...

Oh! Well, it's interesting.

I suppose.

We've already scheduled you

for extra rehearsals,

arranged plenty of personal appearances

and booked you on all the major chat shows.

Mr Carbunkle, I don't think I'll

have the time. My job, you see...

ls already covered.

The Patbot 3000.

This mechanical marvel will be

taking over your postal duties.

Temporarily, of course.

You're teasing.

Nobody will really think that's me.

Hello, Pat.

You can count on me.

The special delivery always gets through.

Mission accomplished.

Oh. Perhaps they will.

Of course, you mustn't breathe

a word of this to anyone.

The consequences would be unfortunate.

Yes. Mustn't dilute your

brand, as they say.

Postman Pat...

Excuse me, sir, but doesn't this

all seem a bit dishonest?

Pat, think of your friends

at the Sorting Office. Think of Bill.

- en.

- Whatever.

We want to do everything we can to make

sure that office stays open, don't we?

Well, I suppose it would be all right

for a little while.

Wonderful! Wonderful, lads!

Thats the team spirit!

Excellent, Clifton. Now

here's what we'll do

Meet me tomorrow morning

at the Sorting Office. Come alone.

Just give me a moment, Jess.

Ill be right back.

mm?

- Mr Carbunkle? Are you here, Mr Carbunkle?

- Clifton.

You're late.

Oh! Yes, Im sorry. I was helping my son
