Paddington is a TV series of 5 minute shorts that ran from 1975 to 1986. The unique visual style (Paddington himself is a stuffed bear filmed in stop-motion, the backgrounds are black-and-white line drawings and the other characters are 2D paper cutouts) and catchy theme tune led to it becoming a well-loved childhood favorite in Britain.It is based on the Paddington Bear books by Michael Bond, about the antics of a small anthropomorphic brown bear who lives with an ordinary London family. Paddington is usually seen wearing a blue duffel coat (a somewhat old-fashioned warm coat fastened by toggles) and rather shapeless black hat.The series is narrated, including all the character voices, by Sir Michael Hordern.There have been three other Animated Series based off Paddington since, first by Hanna-Barbera in 1989, The New Adventures of Paddington Bear by Cinar in the late 90s, and The Adventures of Paddington in 2020.A Paddington live-action movie was released at the end of 2014, with Ben Whishaw as the voice of Paddington. A 3-Disc DVD Collector's Edition of the whole series was also released by Mill Creek Entertainment. | |

Mistaken for Special Guest | |
Paddington (1975) / int_1d3bc993 | comment |
Mistaken for Special Guest: Paddington goes to visit a newly-opened restaurant and makes a comment that leads the staff to believe he is a famous food critic, resulting in him being offered a meal on the house. When the truth is realised, the restaurant owner waives the bill anyway, because the spectacle of an adorably cute bear such as Paddington enjoying his meal has created so much walk-in custom. | |

French Cuisine Is Haughty | |
Paddington (1975) / int_35db4433 | comment |
French Cuisine Is Haughty: Invoked in the episode where Paddington is mistaken for a food critic; the waiter at the restaurant is audibly an Englishman attempting to sound French. In the episode where the Browns take Paddington to a posh restaurant to celebrate the anniversary of his arrival, the restaurant has a menu in French (though the chef, oddly enough, sounds Italian — probably because Michael Hordern only had one French accent). | |

Bizarre and Improbable Golf Game: Paddington enters a golfing competition where each player gets one drive and the winner will be the player whose ball travels farthest before coming to rest. Paddington's ball lands on a passing train, and doesn't come to rest until the train stops several miles away; the judge, who has taken a liking to Paddington, declares that this fits the letter of the rule and awards him first prize. | |

Game Show Appearance | |
Paddington (1975) / int_565ce678 | comment |
Game Show Appearance: Paddington appears on a quiz show called Lucky For Some. He wins (by giving outside-the-box answers that, although different from the ones on the card, are technically correct), but the status quo is preserved when he decides to donate his winnings of £100 to the retirement home in Peru where his Aunt Lucy lives. (They only have marmalade sandwiches on Sundays.) In another episode, Paddington appears on a quiz show called Sage of Britain (a parody of Mastermind), by mistake: he'd only intended to be in the audience, but he got lost and ended up in the contestants' waiting area. His specialist subject is, of course, marmalade sandwiches. He reckons he earns 20 points for correctly answering the question of what his specialist subject was and for stumping the host on a question. However, instead of a two-minute general knowledge drill, Paddington is asked to discuss how he would improve television. | |

Bears Are Bad News: Averted, yet also played straight in a mild way. Paddington is courteous, completely non-violent, and freaking adorable, yet has quite a knack for getting into all sorts of trouble, whether it's accidentally destroying his neighbor's hammock (to be fair, it had been in the attic for years), letting a marmalade sandwich slip inside a film projector, or trashing the kitchen with one of his sloppy baking attempts. | |

Doom It Yourself | |
Paddington (1975) / int_c198a1f8 | comment |
Doom It Yourself: In an early episode, Mr. Brown starts renovating a storeroom to be a bedroom for Paddington. It actually goes quite well until Paddington tries to help, after which it quickly becomes a disaster. In another episode, Paddington attempts to build a magazine rack from the instructions in a do-it-yourself magazine. The rack itself is actually a success — his attempts to repair the kitchen table after he accidentally cuts it in half while using it as a work bench, on the other hand... When the plumber refuses to fix Mr. Curry's bathroom pipes because Mr. Curry still hasn't paid him for last time, Paddington has a go; the result is so bad that Mr. Curry's insurance company pays to have the bathroom completely refurbished. | |

Nice Guy: Practically every character apart from Mr Curry. Paddington himself is the real stand-out though. | |

You Just Ruined the Shot: A variation in the episode where Paddington goes to the theatre. He doesn't interrupt the show, for once having enough self-control to wait and see how it turns out, but as soon as it's over he heads backstage to give the unrepentant villain a piece of his mind. The actor takes it well; an aging thespian who's widely regarded to be losing his touch, he's relieved and flattered that at least one person found his performance convincing. | |

Literal-Minded: Paddington has his moments. When a department store manager announces that a previously-unpopular item has been selling like hot cakes since Paddington was seen using it, Paddington, feeling hungry, considers asking if he can have one of the hot cakes. When the Sage of Britain host suggests he gets "two bites of the cherry, as it were", Paddington likes that idea very much, and asks for the cherry at the end. | |

Paddington (1975) / int_f6214be1 | comment |
Hollywood Psych: Paddington announces he needs his head examined, and is sent to a psychiatrist who sticks him on a Freudian Couch and administers a Word Association Test, before giving up in despair when Paddington associates with everything he says, including his attempts to announce that the test is over. (And all Paddington wanted was somebody to help him get his hat off.) | |
