00:00Miaou! Miaou!
00:24Henry's cat had just seen an exciting film.
00:28It was all about a man called Tarzan, who lived up a tree in the lost world.
00:33All the animals recognised his famous jungle cry.
00:40Tarzan's job was to look after the jungle.
00:43He had to keep it clean, picking up the leaves,
00:47mending the trees,
00:51bathing the animals,
00:54and swishing off the lights at night.
00:56And for all this, he got free bananas and coconuts,
00:59four weeks holiday a year, and Wednesday afternoons off to practice the banjo.
01:10Henry's cat thought to himself,
01:12Oh, what an exciting life! I'd like a job like that.
01:16And he imagined himself swinging through the jungle and saving animals from danger.
01:22Dawn broke in the jungle.
01:26Henry's cat was already up and checking his diary for who he had to save today.
01:30At 9 o'clock, he had to rescue an elephant swallowed by a snake.
01:34At 10.30, there was a hippopotamus falling out of a tree after trying to pick coconuts.
01:43Then, after lunch, there was a lost polar bear,
01:46a giraffe with a sore throat,
01:48and a sick parrot.
01:50After tea, he had to swim 20 miles through alligator-infested waters
01:54to report a jungle fire.
01:56Around about 6.30, he had to run across a burning desert,
01:59chased by a giant scorpion,
02:01cross a crumbling rope bridge,
02:03dive 30,000 feet into a four-inch deep lake full of piranha fish,
02:08then leap a stream of molten lather
02:11so that he could pick up his laundry from the dry cleaners.
02:14Fortunately, tomorrow was his day off.
02:18At least, he thought it was going to be his day off,
02:21but in Darkest Civilization, an evil mind was at work.
02:29It was the notorious Rumbarbar, hunter and explorer.
02:33He was studying a map of the Lost World.
02:36Rumor had it that prehistoric creature
02:39was studying a map of the Lost World.
02:42Rumor had it that prehistoric creature
02:45still roamed and played innocently there.
02:58One of these creatures was none other than the legendary King Kongo,
03:03who stood 90 feet in his socks and was the fiercest animal alive.
03:10Not only that, he was a tap dancer, a juggler, a very funny comic,
03:15an amazing magician, a dab hand at Scrabble,
03:18and the finest tenor voice this side of the equator.
03:31Yes, well, you see, the scheming Rumbarbar's plan
03:35was to make himself rich by capturing King Kongo
03:38and taking him back to Civilization,
03:40where he would be the star turn in his restaurant,
03:43the Dinosaur's Diner.
03:46There, the floor show would feature famous acts from all over the world.
03:51Straight from a tour of Mount Everest,
03:54the Abominable Snowman, who juggled snowballs.
03:58Sahara Sue, the Sand Dancing Camel.
04:09The third act would be fearless Frank Fletcher and his farmyard friends.
04:16But the top of the bill was reserved for King Kongo from the Lost World.
04:28The greatest floor show on Earth would lure customers in for giant omelettes
04:33made from dinosaur's eggs.
04:35But getting giant eggs is no yolk, as they say,
04:39which is why Rumbarbar was going to the Lost World,
04:42so that he could catch some of the dinosaurs that lay the eggs.
04:45It was a daring plan to say the least.
04:48Pumping up a rubber inflatable liner...
04:58Rumbarbar set sail immediately for the jungle.
05:01Arriving at the North Pole, Rumbarbar transferred to a rubber inflatable balloon,
05:06which took him to a mountaintop in East Patagonia,
05:09where his rubber inflatable toboggan took him down to the desert,
05:12where he caught an inflatable train to his destination.
05:16Checking his position, he estimated he was three days walk from where he wanted to be,
05:21but it was only four hours walk if he went by number nine bus,
05:24which he quickly pumped up.
05:27At last, Rumbarbar reached the entrance to the Lost World.
05:31It took all his strength to knock on the door.
05:38He quickly hid when he heard footsteps approaching.
05:45It was the mighty King Kongo himself, collecting the milk.
05:49Slipping inside unnoticed, the evil sheep hid in the undergrowth
05:53and started to put his deadly plan into action.
05:56Pumping up some tins of dinosaurs' delicious din-dins,
06:00which he knew full well no dinosaur could resist,
06:03he poured out the contents of the cans and then mixed in a magic potion.
06:10So that when the dinosaurs ate the din-dins,
06:13they would quickly disappear from the world.
06:16So that when the dinosaurs ate the din-dins,
06:18they would quickly fall asleep and he could capture them.
06:22But as the crafty Rumbarbar slunk away,
06:25he didn't notice the man-eating plants nearby.
06:29When they smelt the dinosaurs' din-dins,
06:32they immediately ate it all up and promptly fell asleep.
06:39When Rumbarbar came back to inspect the dishes,
06:42he thought the dinosaurs had taken the bait
06:44and had just gone off to sleep somewhere.
06:46So he set up the next part of his evil plan.
06:49It was a giant rubber inflatable banana,
06:52which he filled with black ink.
06:55He put it where King Kongo would find it.
06:57Then, when he picked it up to eat it,
06:59the ink would squirt in his eyes
07:01and he wouldn't be able to see where it was going.
07:04He would then fall over a large inflatable rubber log,
07:08which had deliberately been put nearby,
07:10and knock himself out.
07:12Then, whilst King Kongo was unconscious,
07:15Rumbarbar would put his thumbprint on a five-year contract
07:19as a restaurant entertainer.
07:22Only a mad, twisted genius could come up with such a plan.
07:26And only a hero like Henry's cat could stop him.
07:33Meanwhile, back in the jungle,
07:35some hungry dinosaurs arrived and saw the empty din-dins bowls.
07:39The daddy dinosaur said,
07:41Yeah, who's been eating my din-dins?
07:46And the mummy dinosaur said,
07:48Oh, who's been eating my din-dins?
07:52And the baby dinosaur said,
07:54Ha, ha, ha, ha, I've been eating my din-dins
07:58and eaten it all up! Ha, ha, ha, ha!
08:01And she stamped her foot angrily.
08:04And as she weighed ten tons,
08:06this shook the jungle and woke up Henry's cat on his day off.
08:10He immediately swung into dynamic action.
08:18Bimbo the elephant realised something was afoot
08:21and trumpeted to alert all the animals.
08:27Henry's cat, of course, spoke jungle language fluently and said,
08:31Ow, bim, bobble, wibble, nibble, nubby, moo, moo.
08:35Which means there's something going on somewhere.
08:38Have you chaps seen anything?
08:40The lion said he thought he'd heard someone
08:42play a rubber inflatable piano during the night.
08:45A zebra said she had seen some strange cloven footprints
08:48near King Kongo's bungalow.
08:50And a parrot said he'd seen someone pumping up a banana.
08:53To Henry's cat, it all seemed terribly suspicious.
08:56So, in single file,
08:58they all followed the strange footprints through the jungle.
09:01Henry's cat stopped.
09:06There, hidden in the undergrowth,
09:08was a rubber inflatable 87-storey-high skyscraper,
09:12heavily disguised as the Empire State Building.
09:16This confirmed Henry's cat's suspicions
09:19that something was very definitely going on.
09:22Meanwhile, from his treetop hideout,
09:25Rumbaba surveyed the jungle for signs of the mighty King Kongo.
09:30Suddenly, there he was,
09:32the uncrowned king of the lost world,
09:35marching majestically through the undergrowth.
09:43King Kongo stopped.
09:45He had seen the giant banana,
09:47just as Rumbaba had planned.
09:49He grabbed it eagerly, blissfully unaware
09:52that it was a cunning trick.
09:54The ink-filled banana fulfilled its purpose.
09:58Not seeing where he was going,
10:00King Kongo tripped on the rubber-inflated log.
10:04A crafty Rumbaba quickly put a five-year contract
10:07under King Kongo's thumb,
10:09but he was not quick enough.
10:11Giving his famous jungle call,
10:16Henry's cat swooped down from the trees.
10:19Rumbaba was struck widget with fear
10:23and Henry's cat was struck by a coconut tree
10:27as he slightly misjudged his distance.
10:30Rumbaba saw his chance
10:32and pumped up a rubber-inflatable aeroplane.
10:35Henry's cat was close behind him,
10:37but not close enough.
10:39Had the evil Rumbaba escaped justice yet again?
10:44He certainly thought so,
10:46and just to taunt Henry's cat,
10:48toed his comments in the sky.
10:52But as he circled his rubber skyscraper
10:55to make another taunt,
10:56he failed to see King Kongo.
10:58Now very much awake and climbing up the other side,
11:02King Kongo made a grab at the plane.
11:05Crazed with fury and frustration,
11:08Rumbaba decided to have one last go
11:11at catching the uncrowned king of the lost world.
11:14He quickly pumped up a rubber-inflatable stink bomb.
11:18This would make King Kongo hold his nose
11:21and let go of the skyscraper.
11:23He aimed his sights at the giant ape and zoomed in.
11:30But just as he was about to drop the bomb,
11:32King Kongo pulled out the giant banana full of ink.
11:36A single well-aimed shot covered Rumbaba's windscreen.
11:40The stink bomb went off in the aeroplane's cabin.
11:45What a performance!
11:47The smell was so awful,
11:49Rumbaba was forced to hold his nose
11:51and couldn't steer the plane.
11:53It went out of control
11:59and crashed into the jungle.
12:01Luckily for Rumbaba,
12:03he just managed to pump up a parachute and jump out.
12:07Unfortunately, he landed upside down in a swamp.
12:12The alligators were using him as a punch bag.
12:18Henry's cat rescued Rumbaba
12:20and put him in a cage for his own safety.
12:23Henry's cat felt so pleased with his day's work,
12:26he invited all the jungle animals to a picnic.
12:29Well, King Kongo entertained everybody with his...
12:34The man-eating flowers were given special clean capes
12:37and rhubarb trifles for helping out.
12:40And the dinosaur family ate so many jelly baby sandwiches,
12:44they gave themselves tummy ache for a week.
12:47Henry's cat thought for a bit
12:49between munching on marzipan mushrooms and said,
12:52Oh, well, Rumbaba, I'm going to die.
12:57Henry's cat thought for a bit
12:59between munching on marzipan mushrooms and said,
13:02Oh, well, Rumbaba tried to make a monkey out of King Kongo,
13:07but he slipped up on his own giant banana.
13:11And with that, another day passed peacefully in the lost world.
