00:00My name's James, James the Cat. I've had fame, money, and all that. Now I'm here, growing fat, chasing birds and butterflies.
00:29There was an air of activity in the garden. Frieda was taking Mrs. Lavender to see the dentist. Now, come along, Mrs. Lavender.
00:56But I, I, said Mrs. Lavender. Nothing to be scared of, dear. But, but I, just show them your teeth.
01:05But I haven't got any. Oh, shame. Lost them, didn't I? Snails don't need teeth.
01:16Course, try it be purple. Now, boys.
01:19Oh, what about you, Dennis? Come on, open up.
01:27Well, said Dennis, if you're really sure.
01:32Struth, you have enough rylings in there to fence a national park.
01:38Frieda was determined to take someone to the dentist.
01:40Ah, there you are, James.
01:46Never, said James. Nothing will drag me to the dentist's chair. Nothing.
01:51That's right, boss. I'm with you.
01:54Hey, hey. I've only got two teeth.
01:56The next morning, James was in a sorry state.
02:08There. Told you so.
02:10Now, you've got to go to the dentist.
02:12Er, no thank you, Frieda.
02:16I don't really think that's a good idea.
02:18James was suddenly feeling very queasy.
02:30It's all right, boss. I'll take you. No trouble.
02:33Er, no, really.
02:35I, um, I mean, I'm not a coward, and it's not really necessary.
02:39Oh, please, please, not the dentist.
02:42Anything but the dentist.
02:43Oh, help, help.
02:46Help.
02:48The dentist was very kind to James and did all he could to comfort him.
02:57Ah!
02:59That's the boss.
03:01I'm coming, boss.
03:07I never even touched him, said the dentist.
03:11He screamed when he saw my assistant.
03:14James had always been scared of mice.
03:16Oh, sorry, Mr. Dentist.
03:21Say, boss, let me have a look in there.
03:25Hey, what's this?
03:29Er, oh, thank you.
03:32Why, that's yesterday's tea cake.
03:34I wondered where I'd put it.
03:36Oh, oh, my.
03:39Never mind, James.
03:41Here's a present.
03:42It's a tube of your very own special toothpaste.
03:44Back in the garden, it was tea time, and James was bragging horribly.
03:53The pain was awful.
03:54Terrible, but I took it.
03:56After all, to a cat of my standing, it was nothing, really.
03:59One has to be brave about these things.
04:02Dennis offered James a cake.
04:07Oh, thank you.
04:08I don't mind.
04:09Mmm.
04:11If I do.
04:12Ow!
04:13So glad you liked it, said Dennis.
04:16It's my speciality.
04:19Rock cake.
04:20Rock cake.
04:21Rock cake.
04:28Rock cake.
