## Description

Five episodes involving Greendale's favourite postman. In 'Pat's Windy Day', a tree is blocking the road and Pat has lost his hat. 'Pat's Tractor Express' sees Pat climbing aboard a tractor to deliver a registered letter, while in 'The Sheep in the Clover Field', Pat finds his hands full when he has to dodge some bulls and round up some sheep. 'Postman Pat and the Magpie Hen' finds Pat having a quiet picnic after a busy morning's work, and in 'Pat's Thirsty Day', a burst pump results in a thirsty postie. Handyman Ted Glenn to the rescue!

Review: More to the plot than just weather - I bought this on video and DVD to appease my autistic son who had seen many trailers advertising it "out now on video and DVD".... well anything for a quiet life. I have to disagree with a previous review which complained that the plots were 'paper thin', there is actually quite a lot of plot compared to the old postman pats which, charming though they were, mainly focused on a different weather hazzard for each episode (its a bit windy, a tree's blown down etc). There are 2 good stories on this video/DVD and my son absolutely loves it -recommended for kids or fans of postman Pat of all ages
Review: An Ideal Childs Gift - My son, although only 19 months, is a huge fan (much like myself) of the old Postman Pat animations of the '80s so you can imagine his delight when he opened his presents on Christmas to find out he had a video with two all-new episodes of the classic show. I was wary at purchasing this at first, apprehensive that updating Postman Pat would lead to it losing the simplicity that made the Tv show such a favourite with young children. Happily though, all the original elements of Postman pat remain; the catchy theme tune; the lovely design of the village; the overriding sense of friendliness are all here in these new shows. There have been some changes, however. For example, the animation has been greatly improved. The movement of the characters is much 'smoother' and the detail of the sets is more in-depth than before. As for storylines, there is a lot greater emphasis on Pat's homelife. For instance, there is loads of attention focused on Julian (Pat's son) and his friends. The plots of the two new episodes still retain that cosy, happy warm feeling and the modernisation that does occur is actually welcome (for example, the introduction of an Asian family to Greendale). Also, I'm glad to say, Jess is up to his old tricks. Postman Pat is one of those rare shows for pre-schoolers that does not immediately bore adults thanks to it's wonderful animation, familiar characters and plot-lines ideal for a wet afternoon in front of the TV with the kids.

### ⭐ Unfortunately this tape was damaged when it arrived
*by M***N on 19 August 2020*

Unfortunately the tape was damaged at the beginning of the vhs tape and it tangled in the vhs player and had to be removed by the local repair man in the Electrical Supply Store. He discarded the tape and repaired the machine.
