The Irelanders' Adventures of Fireman Sam: The Great Fire of Pontypandy/Transcript

This is the script for The Irelanders' Adventures of Fireman Sam: The Great Fire of Pontypandy.

[We begin with a view of the Pontypandy Lighthouse in a storm. Inside, Charlie Jones is tinkering with the light. It sparks, making Charlie jump. He presses a red button but the light won't come on]

Charlie Jones: Oh, why won't you switch on, silly light!

[The light lights up a bit then fizzes out. Charlie hears a cracking sound, sees the Window cracking and gasps. The window shatters and the wind blows in, blowing the door open. Charlie sees this and tries to shut it]

Charlie Jones: No! [strains] Come on!

[Charlie tried to get the door shut but the wind was blowing so hard that the door gets pushed right open and Charlie falls, managing to grab the bars. He then reaches into his pocket and pulls out his phone]

Charlie Jones: Call Sam! Call Fireman Sam!

[The opening begins. Later, Jupiter can be seen driving on the road to the lighthouse, it's sirens blaring. Charlie hears Jupiter coming and turns his head. Jupiter keeps going then arrives at the base of the lighthouse, where it stops. Sam and Elvis get out]

Fireman Sam: Great fires of London! Hang in there, Charlie! [to Elvis] The wind's too strong to use the ladder or the Helicopter.

Elvis Cridlington: So how will we get your brother down?

Fireman Sam: Keep the light on him, Elvis! [to Charlie] I'm coming, Charlie!

[Sam runs to the top of the lighthouse]

Charlie Jones: Hurry! Can't hold on!

[Charlie starts to slip but Sam grabs him at the last moment]

Fireman Sam: Gotcha!

[Sam pulls Charlie to safety as Elvis watches]

Charlie Jones: Come on, Sam!

[Sam finally manages to pull Charlie up]

Fireman Sam: That was a close call. You really should clip yourself in for safety in future, Charlie.
