Synopsis

Following the mayhem and excitement of arriving in London from Peru, Paddington is now happily settled in with the Brown family. Looking to save up some money to buy his Aunt Lucy a birthday present, he gets various jobs around the local area. Opting to buy her a pop-up book of London, Paddington doesn’t know that a secret treasure map is hidden inside. When the book is stolen, it’s up to Paddington and his family to try and track down the thief, but little does he know, Paddington is being framed for the crime himself! Finding everyone’s favourite marmalade-loving bear stuck in jail, the community rally round to campaign for his release.

What our educators say

"Some of them saw a clip from Wakolda (The German Doctor) on TV recently and really wanted to watch it. So I thought I’d take a chance, not expecting them to watch the whole film but the majority were absolutely gripped. "
