Whilst he's out shopping, our intrepid bear gets caught in quite a storm that blows him all the way along the high street to the door of the Podium cinema! "Singing' in the Rain" is on, and he's intrigued but sadly he's seven years too young to watch the film and is sent packing by the officious commissionaire. Accidentally, he discovers the fire exit and guess where he ends up? He doesn't linger, well he does - just long enough to learn his own version of the famous Gene Kelly number... Who knew he could tap-dance, and he's really quite nimble with his brolly too! When he gets home, he explains to "Mr. Brown" that there are no picture houses in darkest Peru, so they all decide a trip to see "Reginald Clove" playing the organ is in order! Enthusiastically, "Paddington" decides he's going to make his special toffee to take with them - maybe not the best of ideas. Just try getting it out of the bucket! Needless to say their visit doesn't quite go to plan either - especially when he strays into the projection room. This is great fun, the stop-motion animation is really engaging and I challenge you not to smile while you watch.
