I'm Peppa Pig.

This is my little brother, George.

This is Mummy Pig.

And this is Daddy Pig.

Peppa Pig.

Peppa and her family are going for a drive.

I love our car.

Ho-ho, and our car loves us, too.
Don't you?

Stop!

It's Mr Bull and his friends.

Digger, digger.

George likes diggers.

Hello, Mr Bull. What's up?

We are digging up the roads.

Will it take long?

It will take as long as it takes.

Lads, let's smash up this old pipe.

Mr Bull is good at smashing things.

Wow!

Day break!

Oh, dear. Now we have to wait even longer.

Why don't you join us, Mummy Pig?
Plenty of tea to go around.

That sounds lovely.
Thank you, Mr Bull.

That's a nice teapot, Mr Bull.

Yes, Peppa.
It's made of delicate china.

Mr Bull likes delicate china.

You have to be very very careful with china.

Why?

Because china can break very easily.

That's why I always...

Oh!

Oh, dear, Mr Bull has smashed
the teapot to pieces.

Oh, no!

I put it down too hard.
I don't I know my own strength?

Maybe we can fix it, boss. I've got cement.

I've got a rivet gun.

It is not gonna work, lads.

I know! Miss Rabit has a china shop.
She could mend it.

Good idea. Mummy Pig.
We'll go right now.

Can I come too?

We'll all go!

Mr Bull is going to the china shop.

This is Miss Rabit's china shop.

There we are.

Hello, can I help you?

Moo!

Ah! A bull in a china shop.

Hello, Miss Rabbit.
I have broken my china teapot.

Oh, dear.

Can you fix it?

Let's have a look. Mmm.
That's very broken.

I smashed it to bits.

Yes. But I think I can fix it.

Oh, goodie. Can we help?

Of course, Peppa.

Oh. These two pieces fit together.

Fixing the teapot is a bit like
doing a jigsaw puzzle.

Well done, Peppa.
I'll glue those bits together.

George has also found two pieces that fit.

Well done, George.

Nearly finished. That's the lid.

There's just this funny-shaped bit left.
Where just that go?

That's the teapot's handle, Miss Rabbit.

Oh, so it is.
I don't know much about china teapots.

It's as good as new.

Be careful not to smash it again.

Ho-ho! I'm very good at smashing things.

Oh! Whew!

Well done, Peppa.

Thank you for mending
my teapot, Miss Rabbit.

No trouble, Mr Bull. Whew!

Look, boss, a pothole.

There is a small hole in the road.

And it's right outside Miss Rabbit's shop.

What do you think, lads?

Can we have a hole outside
Miss Rabbit's shop?

No.

You fixed my teapot.
I'll fix your road.

Uh, it's not my road.

Mr Bull, how are you
going to mend the hole?

We'll dig up the road.

Mr Bull is digging up the road.

Mr Bull likes digging up the road.
Everybody likes digging up the road.
