[000:01:25;736] [bird cuckoos]
[000:01:30;390] [narrator] This could be
[000:01:30;390] the room of any small boy,
[000:01:32;975] but it just happens
[000:01:32;975] to belong to a boy
[000:01:32;975] named Christopher Robin.
[000:01:37;380] Like most small boys,
[000:01:38;881] Christopher Robin has
[000:01:38;881] toy animals to play with.
[000:01:42;419] And they live together
[000:01:42;419] in a wonderful world
[000:01:42;419] of make-believe.
[000:01:48;225] But his best friend is a bear
[000:01:48;225] called Winnie the Pooh,
[000:01:52;261] or Pooh for short.
[000:01:54;314] Now, Pooh had some
[000:01:54;314] very unusual adventures,
[000:01:57;484] and they all happened
[000:01:57;484] right here
[000:01:59;886] in the Hundred Acre Wood.

[000:03:10;640] [narrator] Now,
[000:03:10;640] the Hundred Acre Wood
[000:03:10;640] boasted many natural wonders,
[000:03:14;945] but none was more beautiful
[000:03:16;713] than a tiny stream
[000:03:16;713] running through the forest.
[000:03:23;503] This particular stream had
[000:03:23;503] a very long way to travel.
[000:03:29;476] And by the time it reached
[000:03:29;476] the edge of the forest
[000:03:31;995] it had grown up,
[000:03:31;995] so it was almost a river.
[000:03:35;549] "Being grown-up,"
[000:03:35;549] it said to itself,
[000:03:38;084] "there is no hurry,
[000:03:38;084] we shall get there some day."
[000:03:50;631] Now, crossing the river
[000:03:50;631] at its most peaceful spot
[000:03:53;733] was an old wooden bridge.
[000:03:56;336] It was a familiar spot
[000:03:56;336] to Winnie the Pooh,
[000:03:59;106] for he would
[000:03:59;106] often wander there,
[000:04:01;241] doing nothing in particular
[000:04:01;241] and thinking nothing
[000:04:01;241] in particular.
[000:04:05;762] But on the most recent
[000:04:05;762] of these excursions,
[000:04:08;515] something took his mind
[000:04:08;515] off of nothing.
[000:04:13;520] Hmm. This is
[000:04:13;520] a very good fir cone,
[000:04:16;856] and something
[000:04:16;856] ought to rhyme to it.
[000:04:19;559] Think, think, think.
[000:04:22;846] Now, fir cones
[000:04:22;846] belong in trees.
[000:04:25;698] Up high,
[000:04:25;698] with the buzzing bees.
[000:04:28;134] But this one I found
[000:04:30;236] down on the ground,
[000:04:32;505] freed by a gentle breeze...
[000:04:34;457] [stammers] Ooh!
[000:04:46;619] Oh, bother.
[000:04:48;705] [sighs] I suppose I shall
[000:04:48;705] have to find another one.
[000:04:52;075] [narrator]
[000:04:52;075] Pooh had every intention of
[000:04:52;075] getting another fir cone,
[000:04:56;296] but the river was slipping away
[000:04:56;296] so peacefully beneath him
[000:04:59;683] that he began
[000:04:59;683] to slip away with it.
[000:05:03;686] That's funny. I dropped it
[000:05:03;686] on the other side
[000:05:07;556] and it came out
[000:05:07;556] on this side.
[000:05:10;276] Hmm.
[000:05:11;578] I wonder if
[000:05:11;578] it would do it again.
[000:05:26;292] I wonder which
[000:05:26;292] will come out first.
[000:05:29;796] [narrator] Well,
[000:05:29;796] the big one came out first,
[000:05:32;632] and the little one
[000:05:32;632] came out last, which is
[000:05:32;632] what Pooh wanted.
[000:05:36;353] - I did?
[000:05:36;353] - [narrator] Yes, Pooh.
[000:05:38;121] And that was the beginning
[000:05:38;121] of a game called Pooh-sticks.
[000:05:41;708] Which I invented.
[000:05:45;361] [narrator] Now one day
[000:05:45;361] Pooh and Piglet, Rabbit and Roo
[000:05:48;364] were all playing
[000:05:48;364] Pooh-sticks together.
[000:05:51;001] But why call it
[000:05:51;001] "Pooh-sticks?"
[000:05:54;037] I thought I started
[000:05:54;037] with fir cones.
[000:05:56;906] [narrator] You did, Pooh.
[000:05:56;906] But sticks were easier to mark.
[000:06:01;745] Oh, yes.
[000:06:01;745] Now I remember.
[000:06:04;347] [narrator clears throat]
[000:06:06;683] Now one day, Pooh and Piglet,
[000:06:06;683] Rabbit and Roo
[000:06:09;485] were all playing
[000:06:09;485] Pooh-sticks together.
[000:06:11;805] All right, now
[000:06:11;805] the first stick to pass
[000:06:14;190] all the way
[000:06:14;190] under the bridge wins.
[000:06:17;260] Now, on your marks,
[000:06:18;861] get set...
[000:06:21;414] Roo! [clucks tongue]
[000:06:23;183] We must all
[000:06:23;183] start together.
[000:06:25;218] Oh, dear.
[000:06:25;218] Now, where was I?
[000:06:25;218] Oh, yes.
[000:06:28;020] On your marks,
[000:06:29;356] get set...
[000:06:32;191] Go!
[000:06:38;048] I can see mine!
[000:06:38;048] I win, I win!
[000:06:44;904] [buzzing]
[000:06:46;606] Can you see yours, Pooh?
[000:06:48;241] No. I expect
[000:06:48;241] my stick's stuck.
[000:06:52;212] [sighs] They always take
[000:06:52;212] longer than you think.
[000:06:55;231] Oh, I can see yours,
[000:06:55;231] Piglet!
[000:06:57;133] Mine's the sort
[000:06:57;133] of g-g-grayish one.
[000:07:00;236] Yes, that's what I can see.
[000:07:00;236] It's coming over to my side.
[000:07:04;240] Come on, stick!
[000:07:04;240] Stick, stick!
[000:07:07;260] [Piglet] Are you sure
[000:07:07;260] it's mine?
[000:07:08;962] It's a big gray one.
[000:07:08;962] Here it comes!
[000:07:11;330] - A very big gray!
[000:07:11;330] - N-n-no, it isn't.
[000:07:14;350] It's... it's...
[000:07:15;969] [all] Eeyore!
[000:07:21;841] Don't pay
[000:07:21;841] any attention to me.
[000:07:24;878] Nobody ever does.
[000:07:26;196] Eeyore, what are you
[000:07:26;196] doing down there?
[000:07:30;416] Give you three guesses.
[000:07:31;935] - Fishing?
[000:07:31;935] - Wrong.
[000:07:33;986] - Going for a sail?
[000:07:33;986] - Wrong again.
[000:07:37;190] Oh...
[000:07:37;190] waiting for somebody
[000:07:39;425] to help you
[000:07:39;425] out of the river?
[000:07:41;995] [Eeyore] That's right.
[000:07:41;995] Give Rabbit the time
[000:07:41;995] and he'll get the answer.
[000:07:46;682] He's going
[000:07:46;682] round and round.
[000:07:48;668] If I decide to practice
[000:07:48;668] a slight movement
[000:07:51;971] from right to left...
[000:07:55;775] ...or left to right,
[000:07:55;775] it's nobody's business
[000:07:55;775] but my own.
[000:08:01;381] Eeyore! What can we...
[000:08:03;316] I mean,
[000:08:03;316] how sh-sh-should we...
[000:08:05;552] ...uh, you think if we...
[000:08:08;571] Guess one of those
[000:08:08;571] would be... just the thing.
[000:08:12;893] Thank you, Piglet.
[000:08:14;410] I've got an idea.
[000:08:16;279] But I don't suppose
[000:08:16;279] it's a very good one.
[000:08:19;131] I don't...
[000:08:20;800] ...suppose it is.
[000:08:22;869] Go on, Pooh.
[000:08:22;869] Let's have it.
[000:08:25;304] Well, if we all
[000:08:25;304] threw stones and things
[000:08:28;875] into the river
[000:08:28;875] on one side of Eeyore,
[000:08:31;578] the stones
[000:08:31;578] would make waves.
[000:08:33;880] And the waves would wash him
[000:08:33;880] to the other side.
[000:08:36;732] Oh, yeah.
[000:08:36;732] That's a very good idea.
[000:08:39;619] I'm glad
[000:08:39;619] we thought of it, Pooh.
[000:08:41;420] [stammers] Pooh?
[000:08:48;394] Ooh, Piglet, give Pooh
[000:08:48;394] a little more room.
[000:08:50;930] Get back a bit there, Roo.
[000:08:53;433] I think a little
[000:08:53;433] to the left, Pooh.
[000:08:55;301] [stammers] Oh, no.
[000:08:55;301] To the right, yes.
[000:08:58;321] Eeyore, could you stop
[000:08:58;321] turning round for a moment?
[000:09:02;458] Because it muddles me rather.
[000:09:04;210] I like turning,
[000:09:04;210] especially round.
[000:09:07;847] Pooh, when I say "now,"
[000:09:07;847] you can drop it.
[000:09:11;618] Eeyore, when I say "now"
[000:09:14;253] Pooh will drop the stone.
[000:09:16;822] - Are you ready?
[000:09:16;822] - Ready.
[000:09:18;808] Good. One, uh,
[000:09:18;808] let's see... two...
[000:09:22;912] ...now.
[000:09:29;919] Oh, dear.
[000:09:31;671] Perhaps it wasn't such
[000:09:31;671] a very good idea, after all.
[000:09:35;742] There he is!
[000:09:46;502] Oh, Eeyore.
[000:09:46;502] You're all wet!
[000:09:52;258] That happens
[000:09:53;726] when you've been in a river
[000:09:53;726] a long time, Piglet.
[000:09:57;564] How did you fall in, Eeyore?
[000:10:00;266] - I was bounced.
[000:10:00;266] - Did somebody push you?
[000:10:03;569] Somebody bounced me.
[000:10:05;755] I was thinking
[000:10:05;755] by the side of the river,
[000:10:09;175] minding my own business,
[000:10:11;678] when I received
[000:10:11;678] a loud bounce.
[000:10:14;146] But who did it?
[000:10:16;632] I expect it was Tigger.
[000:10:19;218] Eeyore, was it...
[000:10:22;539] - Tigger?
[000:10:22;539] - [laughing]
[000:10:24;423] - Hello, Rabbit!
[000:10:24;423] - Tigger, what happened
[000:10:24;423] just now?
[000:10:27;994] - Just when?
[000:10:27;994] - [Rabbit] When you
[000:10:27;994] bounced Eeyore
[000:10:31;447] into the river.
[000:10:32;682] - Well, I didn't bounce him.
[000:10:32;682] - He bounced me.
[000:10:35;801] Well, I didn't really,
[000:10:35;801] uh... [stammering]
[000:10:38;088] I just had a cough
[000:10:38;088] and I happened to be
[000:10:38;088] behind Eeyore,
[000:10:41;174] And I said, I said,
[000:10:43;326] [coughs dramatically]
[000:10:45;311] [chuckling]
[000:10:47;313] It's all right, Piglet.
[000:10:49;198] - That's what I call bouncing.
[000:10:49;198] - I didn't bounce, I coughed!
[000:10:53;569] Bouncing or coughing,
[000:10:53;569] it's all the same.
[000:10:57;140] Oh, no, it's not!
[000:10:58;641] - Try bouncing me, Tigger.
[000:10:58;641] - All I did was cough!
[000:11:02;194] - [Eeyore] Bounced.
[000:11:02;194] - [Tigger] Coughed!
[000:11:04;247] - Bounced.
[000:11:04;247] - Coughed!
[000:11:05;881] [narrator] Excuse me.
[000:11:05;881] Perhaps I can help.
[000:11:08;985] - Who said that?
[000:11:08;985] - It's the narrator.
[000:11:12;305] [narrator]
[000:11:12;305] In order to find out
[000:11:12;305] what really happened,
[000:11:15;124] we'll return to the spot
[000:11:15;124] where Eeyore was thinking
[000:11:15;124] by the side of the river,
[000:11:19;495] up at the top of page 245.
[000:11:22;114] - [Roo] There's Eeyore!
[000:11:22;114] - [Rabbit] Shh!
[000:11:29;672] So he did bounce him!
[000:11:33;292] Oh, well,
[000:11:33;292] it was just a joke.
[000:11:37;980] Ooh, some people
[000:11:37;980] have no sense of humor.
[000:11:43;686] Tigger's so thoughtless
[000:11:43;686] with his bouncing.
[000:11:46;939] Why should Tigger
[000:11:46;939] think of me?
[000:11:49;959] Nobody else does.
[000:11:53;229] Why do you say that,
[000:11:53;229] Eeyore?
[000:12:03;122] [narrator] Without question,
[000:12:03;122] something was troubling Eeyore.
[000:12:06;876] And while his friends puzzled
[000:12:06;876] over his unusual behavior,
[000:12:10;313] Eeyore followed the stream
[000:12:10;313] back to his gloomy spot...
[000:12:15;568] ...which became even
[000:12:15;568] gloomier than usual.
[000:12:23;659] Pathetic.
[000:12:30;099] Just as I thought,
[000:12:30;099] no better from this side.
[000:12:34;470] Nobody minds,
[000:12:34;470] nobody cares.
[000:12:38;624] - Pathetic.
[000:12:38;624] - Eeyore, what's the matter?
[000:12:43;979] What makes you think
[000:12:43;979] anything's the matter?
[000:12:46;882] You seem so sad.
[000:12:48;550] [Eeyore]
[000:12:48;550] Why should I be sad?
[000:12:54;190] It's my birthday,
[000:12:54;190] the happiest day of the year.
[000:12:57;726] - Your birthday?
[000:12:57;726] - Of course.
[000:13:00;546] Can't you see
[000:13:00;546] all the presents?
[000:13:03;850] No.
[000:13:05;401] [Eeyore]
[000:13:05;401] Can't you see the cake?
[000:13:07;220] The candles,
[000:13:07;220] the pink sugar?
[000:13:09;889] - No!
[000:13:09;889] - Neither can I.
[000:13:11;907] Oh. Well,
[000:13:11;907] many happy returns
[000:13:11;907] of the day, Eeyore.
[000:13:16;563] Thank you, Pooh,
[000:13:18;381] but we can't all...
[000:13:20;483] ...and some of us don't.
[000:13:22;017] Can't all what?
[000:13:23;819] No gaiety,
[000:13:23;819] no song and dance,
[000:13:27;990] no Here We Go Round
[000:13:27;990] the Mulberry Bush.
[000:13:31;728] But don't worry
[000:13:31;728] about me, Pooh.
[000:13:34;581] Go and enjoy yourself.
[000:13:37;417] I'll stay here
[000:13:37;417] and be miserable,
[000:13:40;903] with no presents,
[000:13:40;903] no cake...
[000:13:44;340] - ...no candles.
[000:13:44;340] - Eeyore, wait right here.
[000:13:48;761] [narrator] Pooh hurried home
[000:13:48;761] as fast as he could,
[000:13:51;614] when who should
[000:13:51;614] he find but...
[000:13:53;549] - Piglet.
[000:13:53;549] - Hello, Pooh.
[000:13:55;585] - What are you trying to do?
[000:13:55;585] - I'm trying to...
[000:13:59;155] [groans, panting]
[000:14:01;491] That is, I was trying to
[000:14:01;491] reach the kn-kn-knocker.
[000:14:05;661] - Let me do it for you.
[000:14:05;661] - [Piglet] But, Pooh!
[000:14:08;931] I found out what's
[000:14:08;931] troubling poor Eeyore.
[000:14:11;851] It's his birthday
[000:14:11;851] and nobody has taken
[000:14:11;851] any notice of it.
[000:14:16;638] And he's very gloomy
[000:14:16;638] and...
[000:14:19;342] Well, whoever lives here
[000:14:21;944] certainly takes a long time
[000:14:21;944] answering his door.
[000:14:24;646] B-b-but, Pooh,
[000:14:24;646] isn't this your house?
[000:14:29;986] Oh! So it is.
[000:14:32;254] Well, let's go in.
[000:14:35;291] Hmm. I must get poor Eeyore
[000:14:35;291] a present of some sort.
[000:14:42;714] Ah! Honey.
[000:14:44;884] That should do
[000:14:44;884] very well.
[000:14:46;869] Oh, what are you going
[000:14:46;869] to give, Piglet?
[000:14:49;639] Couldn't I give it, too?
[000:14:49;639] From b-b-both of us?
[000:14:57;413] No, Piglet.
[000:14:57;413] That would not be
[000:14:57;413] a very good plan.
[000:15:04;336] Perhaps I could give
[000:15:04;336] Eeyore a balloon.
[000:15:06;655] That, Piglet,
[000:15:06;655] is a very good idea.
[000:15:09;675] Nobody could be un-cheered
[000:15:09;675] by a balloon.
[000:15:12;194] I have one at home!
[000:15:12;194] I'll go and get it
[000:15:12;194] r-r-right now!
[000:15:16;832] [narrator] So off Piglet
[000:15:16;832] trotted in one direction...
[000:15:20;736] ...and in the other
[000:15:20;736] direction went Pooh
[000:15:20;736] with his jar of honey.
[000:15:24;173] However,
[000:15:24;173] Pooh hadn't gone very far
[000:15:27;042] when a very funny feeling
[000:15:27;042] began to creep over him.
[000:15:31;247] It began
[000:15:31;247] at the tip of his nose...
[000:15:34;183] ...and trickled
[000:15:34;183] all the way down
[000:15:37;119] to the soles of his feet,
[000:15:38;737] as if someone inside him
[000:15:38;737] was saying...
[000:15:41;790] Now then, Pooh,
[000:15:41;790] time for a little something.
[000:15:45;678] [narrator] So Pooh
[000:15:45;678] had a little something.
[000:15:48;598] And then,
[000:15:48;598] he had a little more.
[000:15:51;500] And a little more.
[000:15:53;869] Until he had taken
[000:15:53;869] his last lick from
[000:15:53;869] the inside of the jar.
[000:15:58;390] [smacking]
[000:15:58;390] Now, let me see.
[000:16:01;343] Where was I going?
[000:16:03;546] Oh, yes. Eeyore.
[000:16:05;697] I was going to...
[000:16:08;984] Oh, bother.
[000:16:10;719] I must give
[000:16:10;719] Eeyore something.
[000:16:16;408] I think I shall go see
[000:16:19;061] my good friend Owl.
[000:16:22;865] [hoots] That should do it.
[000:16:22;865] The perfect spot.
[000:16:27;452] [knocking at door]
[000:16:31;607] [knocking at door]
[000:16:34;811] Yes, yes, coming.
[000:16:36;695] Pooh.
[000:16:36;695] To what do I owe this...
[000:16:39;749] Many happy returns
[000:16:39;749] of Eeyore's birthday, Owl.
[000:16:43;819] Oh, is that what it was?
[000:16:45;871] Well, come in, Pooh,
[000:16:45;871] come in.
[000:16:48;957] You know, that reminds me
[000:16:48;957] of the birthday of
[000:16:48;957] my great uncle Robert,
[000:16:53;796] a portrait of whom you see
[000:16:53;796] upon the wall on your right.
[000:16:58;884] He had just reached
[000:16:58;884] the ripe old age of 103,
[000:17:02;771] who, though, of course,
[000:17:02;771] he would only admit to 97.
[000:17:06;526] And we all felt
[000:17:06;526] a celebration was in order.
[000:17:09;095] So, while Uncle Robert
[000:17:09;095] was returning in the late
[000:17:09;095] fall noon from a...
[000:17:13;366] [Pooh] What are you
[000:17:13;366] giving him, Owl?
[000:17:15;167] [stammers]
[000:17:15;167] Uh, giving who, Pooh?
[000:17:18;403] - Eeyore.
[000:17:18;403] - Oh, Eeyore.
[000:17:20;989] [laughs] Yes, I, uh...
[000:17:23;893] What are you
[000:17:23;893] giving him, Pooh?
[000:17:26;145] I'm giving him
[000:17:26;145] this useful pot
[000:17:29;131] to keep things in,
[000:17:29;131] and I wanted to ask you...
[000:17:32;084] A useful pot?
[000:17:34;470] Hmm.
[000:17:36;639] Evidently...
[000:17:38;840] ...someone has been
[000:17:38;840] keeping honey in it.
[000:17:42;411] - [thudding]
[000:17:42;411] - You can keep
[000:17:42;411] anything in it.
[000:17:44;747] It's very useful
[000:17:44;747] like that.
[000:17:46;999] - And I wanted to ask you...
[000:17:46;999] - [hoots]
[000:17:49;618] You want to write
[000:17:49;618] "Happy Birthday" on it?
[000:17:52;187] That was what
[000:17:52;187] I wanted to ask you.
[000:17:54;990] - My spelling is wobbly.
[000:17:54;990] - Hmm. Very well, then.
[000:17:59;028] [clears throat]
[000:17:59;028] If you please?
[000:18:07;753] [quill squeaking]
[000:18:11;306] It's easier if people
[000:18:11;306] don't look while I'm writing.
[000:18:14;810] [squeaking continues]
[000:18:16;328] There. All finished.
[000:18:18;848] What do you think of it?
[000:18:20;399] I kept it simple.
[000:18:22;951] "Just saying
[000:18:22;951] happy birthday."
[000:18:26;054] - It seems like a lot of words.
[000:18:26;054] - Yes, well, um...
[000:18:30;276] Actually, of course,
[000:18:30;276] I, uh...
[000:18:32;828] I wrote
[000:18:32;828] "A very happy birthday,
[000:18:35;264] with love, from Pooh."
[000:18:38;400] Naturally, it takes
[000:18:38;400] a good deal of words
[000:18:41;120] to say a long thing
[000:18:41;120] like that.
[000:18:43;338] Oh, I see.
[000:18:43;338] Well, thank you, Owl.
[000:18:46;709] Eeyore will be
[000:18:46;709] most pleased.
[000:18:49;161] [Owl] Oh, I do hope so.
[000:18:51;847] Ooh, this is so exciting.
[000:18:55;918] I'm flying directly over
[000:18:55;918] to Christopher Robin's
[000:18:59;088] to tell him the news.
[000:19:13;052] [Owl] Many happy returns
[000:19:13;052] of Eeyore's birthday, Piglet.
[000:19:17;473] Whoo! And many happy
[000:19:17;473] returns to you, too, Owl.
[000:19:30;636] [groaning]
[000:19:38;294] Oh, dear! [stammers]
[000:19:38;294] Oh, dearie, dear, dear.
[000:19:42;164] What shall I...
[000:19:42;164] How shall I...?
[000:19:45;468] Well,
[000:19:46;752] perhaps Eeyore doesn't like
[000:19:46;752] balloons so very much.
[000:20:17;265] Good afternoon, Eeyore.
[000:20:19;418] Good afternoon, Piglet,
[000:20:21;187] if it is a good afternoon,
[000:20:23;155] which I doubt.
[000:20:24;907] Many happy returns
[000:20:24;907] of the d-d-day.
[000:20:28;110] - Meaning my birthday?
[000:20:28;110] - Yes, Eeyore.
[000:20:30;562] And I... I've
[000:20:30;562] brought you a present.
[000:20:34;983] Pardon me, Piglet,
[000:20:34;983] my hearing must be going.
[000:20:39;187] I thought you said
[000:20:39;187] you'd brought me a present.
[000:20:41;857] I did.
[000:20:43;309] I've bought you a...
[000:20:44;860] [stammers] ...balloon.
[000:20:49;364] - Balloon? Did you say balloon?
[000:20:49;364] - Yes, but I'm afraid...
[000:20:53;535] Ooh, I'm very sorry,
[000:20:53;535] but when I was running,
[000:20:56;656] [stammers] that is,
[000:20:56;656] to bring it, I...
[000:20:59;474] ...fell down
[000:20:59;474] and, and, uh...
[000:21:04;013] My balloon?
[000:21:06;666] My birthday balloon?
[000:21:08;900] Red. My favorite color.
[000:21:13;088] - How big was it?
[000:21:13;088] - About as big as me.
[000:21:18;511] My favorite size.
[000:21:22;130] [Pooh] Many happy returns
[000:21:22;130] of the day, Eeyore.
[000:21:25;067] I've brought you
[000:21:25;067] a little present.
[000:21:28;120] It's a useful pot.
[000:21:30;055] And it's got
[000:21:30;055] "A very happy birthday,
[000:21:32;625] with love, from Pooh"
[000:21:32;625] written on it.
[000:21:35;261] And... it's for
[000:21:35;261] putting things in.
[000:21:42;368] Like a balloon?
[000:21:44;002] Oh, no, Eeyore.
[000:21:45;571] Balloons are much too big
[000:21:45;571] to go into a...
[000:21:50;276] So it does.
[000:21:54;079] Eeyore, I'm very glad
[000:21:54;079] that I thought of
[000:21:56;598] giving you a useful pot
[000:21:56;598] to put things in.
[000:22:00;018] And I'm very glad
[000:22:00;018] I thought of
[000:22:00;018] giving you something
[000:22:02;521] to put in
[000:22:02;521] a useful p-p-pot.
[000:22:10;095] Many happy returns,
[000:22:10;095] Eeyore.
[000:22:14;500] [all] Hooray!
[000:22:16;151] Ooh! Bravo! Bravo!
[000:22:19;421] Good show.
[000:22:21;874] This reminds me of
[000:22:21;874] the party we once gave
[000:22:21;874] my great uncle Robert.
[000:22:26;912] He had just reached
[000:22:26;912] the ripe old age of 103,
[000:22:29;982] though, of course,
[000:22:29;982] he would only admit to 97.
[000:22:33;552] So we had to instruct
[000:22:33;552] the guests to pretend
[000:22:33;552] that he had...
[000:22:37;172] - [Tigger] Helloo!
[000:22:37;172] - Oh, no.
[000:22:39;258] Oh, no. Oh, no. Not...
[000:22:42;795] ...Tigger.
[000:22:44;046] Hello,
[000:22:44;046] we're having a party.
[000:22:45;814] A party? [laughs]
[000:22:47;983] Oh, boy, a party!
[000:22:47;983] Tiggers love parties!
[000:22:52;170] Ooh! And cake!
[000:22:53;488] [mumbling]
[000:22:57;293] You've got a lot of nerve
[000:22:57;293] showing up here,
[000:23:00;713] after what you did
[000:23:00;713] to Eeyore.
[000:23:05;217] Humph. Well, I think
[000:23:05;217] Tigger should leave.
[000:23:11;206] Aww, let him stay.
[000:23:14;877] What do you think,
[000:23:14;877] Christopher Robin?
[000:23:17;446] I think...
[000:23:19;298] I think we all ought to...
[000:23:21;634] ...play Pooh-sticks.
[000:23:23;102] Pooh-sticks? Oh, boy!
[000:23:23;102] That's what Tiggers do best.
[000:23:28;824] [narrator] They gathered
[000:23:28;824] on the old wooden bridge
[000:23:31;560] and played the game
[000:23:31;560] for many contented hours.
[000:23:35;330] And Eeyore, who had
[000:23:35;330] never played it before,
[000:23:38;033] won more times
[000:23:38;033] than anyone else.
[000:23:41;153] But poor Tigger
[000:23:41;153] won none at all.
[000:23:44;523] [growls] Tiggers
[000:23:44;523] don't like Pooh-sticks.
[000:23:47;809] - Let's play again!
[000:23:47;809] - [Kanga] We must
[000:23:47;809] go home now, dear.
[000:23:50;912] - It's past your bedtime.
[000:23:50;912] - [Roo] Gee, do we have to?
[000:23:54;950] - I'm not tired.
[000:23:54;950] - Come along.
[000:23:57;603] [yawning] I think, uh,
[000:23:57;603] we should all be going.
[000:24:01;456] Yes, quite right.
[000:24:03;008] Congratulations, Eeyore.
[000:24:03;008] It's been a delightful party.
[000:24:08;146] Thank you, Owl.
[000:24:16;288] Tigger,
[000:24:16;288] I'd be happy to tell you
[000:24:19;157] my secret for winning
[000:24:19;157] at Pooh-sticks.
[000:24:21;594] - You would?
[000:24:21;594] - [Eeyore] It's very easy.
[000:24:24;763] You just have to let
[000:24:24;763] your stick drop in
[000:24:24;763] a twitchy sort of way.
[000:24:29;384] Yeah, I forgot to twitch,
[000:24:29;384] that was my problem.
[000:24:32;204] [chuckling]
[000:24:33;439] - [crash]
[000:24:33;439] - [Eeyore] Bounced again.
[000:24:40;579] Tigger's all right,
[000:24:40;579] really.
[000:24:42;981] Of course he is.
[000:24:44;866] [Pooh]
[000:24:44;866] Everybody is, really.
[000:24:47;419] That's what I think.
[000:24:49;471] But, I don't suppose
[000:24:49;471] I'm right.
[000:24:52;190] Of course you are,
[000:24:52;190] silly old bear.
