00:01This is 29 Acacia Road.
00:04And this is Eric, the schoolboy who leads an exciting double life.
00:09For when Eric eats a banana, an amazing transformation occurs.
00:15Eric is Banana Man.
00:18Ever alert for the call to action.
00:28Once again, Banana fans, that happy-go-lucky band of villains, the heavy mob, were back in jail.
00:34Yes, another smash-and-grab raid had gone wrong.
00:38They smashed a window and were grabbed by the long arm of the law.
00:46Ah, there's not a jam-donut in the land, it's safe.
00:49With your heavy mob on the loose, Eddie, you are going back to jail.
01:02One evening, after the warders said night-night and tucked the heavy mob up in their beds,
01:07Eddie the gent called a meeting.
01:09Oh, no, Eddie. Not another daring escape plane.
01:12Oh, yes, Morris.
01:14And this time, an innocent game of cricket will be the perfect cover for our getaway.
01:19Oh, brilliant! That's brilliant!
01:21Oh, you are a recording. We miss you so much.
01:26It's a note from Eddie the gent.
01:29You read it, Crow. It's in joined-up letters.
01:32Hey, hey, hey!
01:34It's an invitation to a cricket match at the jail boss.
01:37The heavy mob against your side.
01:39The Acacia Road All-Stars.
01:41Oh, good. A friendly match.
01:45If you've just joined us, Madonna fans, welcome to a real crack of a cricket match.
01:49That's Morris the muscle batting, and he's in great form.
02:03And for the All-Stars, it's Mr. Grindle throwing everything in his cricket.
02:07Hey, Dad!
02:12About a long drive from Morris, and the heavies are off and running.
02:26Just look at that scoreboard.
02:29There's no stopping this mob, unless, yes, it's Banana Man.
02:47How about that, fans? He's out for a duck.
02:49I'm in a crow.
02:51Well done, crow.
02:52And it's the All-Stars' turn.
02:54They need a hundred ones to win, and coming into bounties, oh, it's Banana Man.
03:01Banana Man is my hero.
03:10I think the scoreboard operators will be working overtime from now on.
03:19There.
03:29And how's that?
03:35Delicious.
03:36Now I'm supercharged with Banana Power, fans.
03:39Watch this one.
04:01Where's the ball, Eddie?
04:03Never mind.
04:04The ball, Morris.
04:05Just keep running towards the gate.
04:06We're breaking out.
04:20Another triumph, crow.
04:22We've won the match and stopped the heavy mob.
04:29Hi there.
04:31Is this your ball?
04:32Oh, boy.
