In Friday’s episode Pat’s special delivery is more of a mission. Amy the vet rings to have Pat collect a “special delivery” when behind the scenes they really want to arrange a special horse riding session with Pumpkin for Ben as he works hard. Pat shows up in PAT1 to collect the Pumpkin in the horse trailer and as he gets to the mail sorting centre, magically the registration changes back to PAT4! At any rate, mission accomplished for the special riding lesson and Pat’s first special delivery wherein he didn’t need to collect it from the mail centre first!

PAT1=PAT4?

Today I was catching up on some missed episodes of Postman Pat and noticed something out of the ordinary. Thursday October 9th’s episode (where he delivers some ducks) he rolls up in the end in his normal vehicle, only it is registered as PAT4. Looks like he might have more vehicles than we originally imagined. PAT1 must be his personal vehicle to go to and fro with in his own time – sort of like his company car and he uses PAT2 (the big van), PAT3 (the helicopter), PAT4 (the “new” small delivery van), and PAT5 (the motorbike) to deliver the goods.
Must be nice to have the capability to select from such an entourage of vehicles.
Today was pretty good in Postman Pat land, in that he woke up and took Julian to school in PAT1. Got to the office and realised he had to deliver a box that kept floating a bit (not sure what might be in it), so put it in PAT2. Went to the mechanic and found it was a balloon set and subsequently lost it, oops! Well, with the help of the town mechanic and the local PC, realised he needed PAT3, the super duper helicpoter and eventually saved the day as normal! Good goin Pat! Only problem is that he didn’t need to use the motorcycle…Oh well, maybe next time.
Everyone’s little buddy Postman Pat and Jess his black and white cat has had a bit of a time warp recently. In his most recent episode, aired today (catch it on BBC’s iPlayer), he gets some cool new gear. The Royal Mail is in the money as Pat gets the 21st century upgrade:
PAT2 – A new larger van to help accompany PAT1
PAT3 – A helicopter to help deliver cows that get stuck on cliffs (see the episode above)
A new mobile phone!
Pat, you’re ready for the 21st century mate, and you and your cat Jess rock! Only thing you need now is to replace Jess with a dog!
