1 | Being a Creator/CBeebies show, Postman Pat has seen some fairly funny moments including; |
2 | |
3 | !!From the original series: |
4 | * A hen stealing Pat's sandwich in "Postman Pat and the Magpie Hen". |
5 | * Jess tripping up Pat in "Postman Pat's Difficult Day". Pat's hat even lands on Jess's head; for this, Pat nicknames him Postman Jess. |
6 | * Pat hitting Alf Thompson with a snowball in "Postman Pat Goes Sledging". |
7 | * Pat has an accident in the post office after putting on Mrs Goggins' spare glasses in "Postman Pat in a Muddle". |
8 | * Pat getting stuck in the clay when it starts to run in "Postman Pat Misses the Show". |
9 | ** Again in the same episode, the gust of wind covers Miss Hubbard's blouse in paint, with Pat remarking "I think the wind's trying to paint you!". |
10 | * Granny Dryden forgetting her hat in "Postman Pat Takes the Bus". |
11 | |
12 | !!From the 2004 series: |
13 | * Ted overfilling a massive balloon (which exploded in front of Pat and Jess) in ''Postman Pat's Flying Post''. |
14 | * In "Postman Pat and the Green Rabbit", Pat has to climb a fence to retrieve Green Rabbit from the sheep pen, which results in a WardrobeMalfunction as the seat of his trousers get torn. Even better is that he never bothers to put new trousers on for the entirety of the episode! |
15 | |
16 | !!From the movie: |
17 | * While the movie is infamously more dark and actionized than nearly anything in the original show, it at least seems to be frequently self-aware of it. |
18 | ** Nearly everything Edwin Carbunkle says and does lampoons the cosiness of the franchise: |
19 | -->'''Carbunkle:''' The days of loveable friendly mailmen helping quaint country characters with their stupid little problems is over! |
20 | ** When Carbunkle has the Pat-Bot and Jess-Bot [[TheUnsmile demonstrate how friendly they are]], Pat says what [[NightmareFuel pretty much everyone watching is thinking]]: |
21 | -->'''Pat:''' Er... that's a ''lot'' of teeth...! |
22 | ** Early test runs for the core robot show they had clear problems making a customer friendly design for the robot postman. A documented video shows a subject being scared witless by numerous failed prototypes delivering post to her door, among them are [[Series/LostInSpace Class M-3 Robot]] and [[Series/DoctorWho a Dalek with a fruit basket]]. |
23 | * In a darkly humorous sense, Pat's initial introduction to the Pat-Bot 3000: |
24 | -->'''Pat:''' Well then, good luck. And remember, the most important thing for a postman is... |
25 | -->'''Pat-Bot 3000:''' SPEED. EFFICIENCY. [[BreadEggsMilkSquick RULING THE WORLD]]. |
26 | -->'''Pat:''' Well, I was going to say "being friendly". You know, [[ComicallyMissingThePoint the human touch!]] |
