Postman Pat has to deliver a scarecrow to Thompson Ground in order to help Alf protect his crop of raspberries. The scarecrow looks exactly like P.C. Selby which creates some confusion in the village.

Alf and Arthur also attempt to trick Pat by having Arthur pretend to be a talking scarecrow.

It's Chinese Day at school and the children are really looking forward to a day of special Chinese-themed celebration, helped by Michael. As a special surprise, he's ordered a real Chinese dragon costume which Pat picks up at the sorting office to deliver to the school. On the way though, naughty horse Pumpkin gets the dragon's head stuck on his own and as he canters off into the fields the locals are terrified that there's a real dragon on the loose!
