About This Program ✦
Find the Fossil / Wild Snaps / Country Market Chaos / Great Reading Rescue / Perfect Pioneer Tea / Beaver Blackout is an episode‑style programme that strings together six distinct adventures set in Pontypandy. The show blends discovery, competition, community mishaps and a touch of danger. The episode kicks off when Peter uncovers what appears to be a dinosaur bone, only for his dog Nipper to snatch it and become stranded on a cliff ledge. Meanwhile, Malcolm’s Wildlife Photo Challenge pits four pairs – Mandy and Mike, Sarah and James, Hannah and Joe, and Norman and Jodie – against each other. Chaos erupts at Pontypandy’s inaugural Country Market as Sarah and James attempt to outsell Mandy and Norman, sending apples scattering everywhere. Later, when the brand‑new community library runs out of books, Mandy dispatches Norman and James on a hazardous mission to secure the grand opening. The Pioneer crew must brew a cup of tea to earn a badge and a new vest, but Peter and Mandy inadvertently spark a forest fire. Finally, a beaver‑induced power cut forces Norman to suggest keeping Dilys’s frozen supplies outdoors, a decision that quickly proves disastrous. Each vignette showcases the characters’ resourcefulness and the occasional mishap that follows their well‑intentioned plans.
Fireman Sam broadcasts on Cartoonito at 2:00am, Monday, 9 February 2026.
