Pingu - Season 4 (2004)

PINGU goes fishing but promises to be back on time. However he forgets all about his promise when he meets his friend. They only catch small fish and it's so much fun at the waterside that even when it gets dark they aren't bothered. When his father has to come and find him PINGU is told to come home at once. The fish that PINGU had caught are appreciated by all but he realised that he went too far

PINGU and Pinga are playing outside the igloo with their old toys when Pingi comes along and PINGU decides that he is too old for the toys. Instead of playing with Pinga, PINGU takes his bike and starts showing off to Pingi. Pinga meanwhile after feeling a bit left out goes inside to be with mother.

PINGU helps his father to wipe fresh snow off the car. Deciding this is very hard work PINGU tries to think of a way that would mean that he didn't have to do it again. He comes up with the idea of an ice garage which Robby helps him make. When Father gets home he is very impressed by the idea of a garage and also by PINGU and Robby for building it.

Pingu has the day off school and wants to have fun, not to help Mother with her work. He sets off and meets his friends but they all have work to do. Then he realises that the mother bird looking for food for her young is working and remembers his own mother.

PINGU rushes off to his grandfather as he has found a bow and arrow to play with. Grandfather shows PINGU how to shoot the bow and arrow but he doesn't pay enough attention and shoots at and breaks several things before Grandfather sends him home. When he gets home PINGU is given a job to do as punishment but manages to remain cheerful.

A friend of PINGU's is playing with a kite outside the house. PINGU passes by and wants to play with his kite too, but his friend reminds him to be careful because of the irritable neighbour. PINGU decides to ignore this warning and continues playing until his kite dives and hits the neighbour's house just as she is leaving whereupon she confiscates the kite. They are very disappointed but go home and play with a ball having learnt their lesson.

PINGU discovers a magnet and decides to use it to dupe a friend. They play hit the spot, PINGU with a metal ball, his friend with a wooden one. Sure enough PINGU wins every time. However the tables are turned when his friend discovers PINGU's trick and turns it back on him. In the end all cheating is finished when Father unwittingly drives off with the magnet.

PINGU is playing with his boat on the water. The boat keeps sinking because of a leaking hull but usually PINGU is just able to rescue it but then it gets just too far out of reach. A passer-by sees what is happening and uses their ski to edge out and rescue the boat; unfortunately in the process he falls in and loses his skis. Luckily the stranger doesn't seem too angry and PINGU is delighted to have his boat back.

Pingu is playing with his toys when he falls asleep. He starts to dream about trees growing sweets, fish flying into his mouth and huge lollies sprouting like flowers. He's enjoying his dream until Pinga wakes him.

PINGU meets his grandfather on his way home from school. PINGU is rather full of himself and wants to play a thoughtless trick on Grandfather and it is not until the last minute that PINGU realises that Grandfather is actually in danger. However he is forgiven and having learnt his lesson is thankful that nothing terrible happened.

PINGU and Pinga area playing with their airplane in the igloo and make such a mess they are sent outside. When they see a real plane fly over PINGU and Pinga decide to build their own one and happily play at being pilot and passenger.

PINGU is constantly annoying and playing tricks on Pinga until she almost starts to cry. Father sees what is going on and stops PINGU by pestering him in the same way as he pesters Pinga. PINGU doesn't like it but like Pinga, he can't do anything about it. Having learnt his lesson, PINGU and Pinga play happily together once again.

PINGU sees a magic kit in the shop are really wants it. He tries to put pressure on everyone, convinced he can't live without it. At last seeing PINGU wishing so hard for something his parents decide to get it for him. Although it is not Christmas they surprise PINGU with a tree and the present and he is delighted.

It is PINGU's birthday and he discovers a large present on the table. He wants to open it but he is told he has to wait. He is very impatient and he tries in all sorts of ways to secretly find out what his present might be. In doing so he knocks the heavy parcel falls from the table and when he is finally allowed to open the parcel he finds the cake inside it is somewhat squashed. In the end however the cake tastes just as good so everyone is happy again.

Father demands that PINGU puts everything in its right place. PINGU puts all his toys into his toy chest and then puts Pinga's toys neatly in their places. Whilst he is putting her toys away Pinga has taken PINGU's locomotive out of the chest and is playing with it outside. Pingu tries to take it away from her to put it away again but Father encourages them to go out side and play together. When Father comes back there are toys all over the floor again but he realises that children will always make a mess and stops worrying about it.

PINGU sees a picture of the Tower of Babel in a book and wants to build a tower like it where he can be higher than the birds. However in the end the tower collapses when Pinga starts taking the lower blocks back out. Although PINGU suffers nothing more than a black eye he realises that such a tower is not a reality.

Pinga discovers a book about kingdoms and PINGU thinks that it would be great to be king. He plays the king and his friends help to play out the scenes. However when he gets too grandiose and starts ordering his 'inferiors' they decide to leave the one sided game.

PINGU wants to bake a cake himself after he learns to do so at the bakery. However his efforts are rather clumsy and he accidentally adds extra baking powder. The result turns out to be rather unusual and oddly shaped but the taste is good all the same and the whole family enjoys it.

PINGU is playing at being an Red Indian with Pinga's teddy bear when the arm comes off. Pinga sees the damage and, distraught goes crying to Mother. PINGU pretends that it wasn't him and tells some far-fetched story. Pinga's bear is repaired and she gets a lolly to pacify her. On seeing this PINGU pulls the arm off his bear as well, what he really wants is the same attention from Mother as Pinga is getting.

The PINGU family get a call from Grandfather asking for their help. When there seem to be endless delays setting off in the snowmobile PINGU decides to go on foot and arrives at Grandfather's first. By the time Mother and Father arrive PINGU has already seen to Grandfather's foot and made a temporary splint for until they can get Grandfather to the doctor.

PINGU gets up and stumbles over some of his toys, has a bad journey to school and can't answer the questions the teacher asks him. His day gets worse and worse until he is cheered up by a doing a trick with some ice cream that someone has dropped.

PINGU is showing off and bets Pinga that he can shoot balls at a can better than she can. At first PINGU wins and gets the teddybear prize however seeing her distress the stallholder gives Pinga some help and arranges for her to win the prize from PINGU. All the same they are happy to share the bear and return home content.
