Postman Pat – Totally Doctor Who – Blue Peter – 15 May 2006

First today, it’s back to Greendale for Postman Pat – Spring Dance. Julian shows Pat his “Bollywood Dance”. That’s cultural appropriation, that is. Although they’re doing it for school.

Sara is looking forward to the dance, but Pat is unsure, as he seems not to be a good dancer.

Even Mrs Goggins is dancing.

At the dance, the children do their Bollywood Special.

To Sara’s surprise, Pat turns u at the dance in a sparkly suit, and dances with her.

Media Centre Description: Children’s stop-frame animation. Postman Pat and his cat Jess deliver the post to residents of Greendale, including Mrs Goggins the post-mistress, Reverend Timms, PC Arthur Selby and Dr Sylvia Gilbertson. Everyone is practising different dances for the Spring Dance. Ted teaches Pat how to dance. Pat surprises Sara by whisking her onto the dance floor.
