00:00This is 29 Acacia Road, and this is Eric, the schoolboy who leads an amazing double life.
00:08For when Eric eats a banana, an amazing transformation occurs.
00:16Eric is Banana Man, ever alert for the call to action.
00:31Chief O'Reilly here, Eric. Now listen, General Blight and Dr. Gloom have just been sighted at the funfair,
00:36but I can't spare one single solitary man to go and see what those villains are up to,
00:40because my entire force is down with the football world.
00:43Is there a riot, Chiefy?
00:44No, we're playing football.
00:47Don't worry, I'll look into it, but my cousin Samantha is staying with us. I'll have to take her along.
00:53Meanwhile, at the funfair, the regular staff were unable to sell candy floss or collect tickets,
00:58as they were tied up by General Blight and Dr. Gloom.
01:02There, that'll hold them.
01:04Now then, Doctor, the object of my latest plan is to utterly destroy the Acacia Road police station and Banana Man.
01:13There is my engine of destruction.
01:17Oh, great bouncing bananas!
01:20A helter-skelter?
01:22You know, General, it looks almost like a rocket.
01:25It is a rocket. A rocket so deadly, even I hesitate to use it.
01:31But not for long. You see, that innocent-looking helter-skelter is filled with porridge.
01:38Thick, lumpy porridge.
01:42Imagine, Acacia Road, the police station, all buried in thick, lumpy porridge.
01:49You're not serious.
01:50Indeed I am, and my preparations are almost complete.
01:54That test-your-strength machine is our ignition system.
01:58It's set for outer space, but as soon as the coast is clear,
02:02I'll change it to the Acacia Road police station and we'll start the countdown.
02:09Meanwhile, you make sure no one interferes with my plan.
02:14Oh, Eric, I'm so excited.
02:16Which ride should we start with?
02:18I don't know, the ghost train.
02:21Tickets, get your tickets here for the ghost train.
02:24You do scare easily. He's only the ticket collector.
02:38Oh, no!
02:41Oh, no, the zombie.
02:44I'll save you, I'll save you.
02:46Do not be alarmed, my young friends.
02:48I am a sleeping car attendant.
02:54A sleeping car attendant on a ghost train?
02:57And you knew your name, Eric?
02:59Of course, I should have recognized that voice.
03:03That tickled.
03:05I shall be gone for a few minutes, but don't worry, you'll be safe.
03:10I must eat a banana.
03:12A banana at a time like this?
03:18I shall just leave others where they are, at their position, and they won't stand a ghost of yours.
03:24Oh, no, you don't.
03:26Dr. Gloom, it's time you made a splendid exit.
03:35What seems to be the problem, men?
03:37I woke up.
03:38He usually tests the machine to make sure it's working, see?
03:42Oh, it's not working.
03:43Oh, God, dear, dear, dear, give that man a cuddle toy and send him out.
03:46Now, listen, why don't you have a go, eh?
03:49Mind if I have a go?
03:51We shall sort him out later.
04:03And so the giant rocket, with its deadly cargo of lumpy porridge,
04:07zoomed off into space,
04:09destined to wander amongst distant galaxies,
04:12never to return to Earth.
04:15Well, maybe, huh?
04:16Curses!
04:18Another scheme gone wrong!
04:21More porridge, but...
04:25There you are, Eric. I thought you were lost.
04:28Oh, no, Sam, I was...
04:32Now who scares him, Zoe?
