Norman spots the picnic and likes the look of the chocolate cream eclairs, he swipes one with his fishing rod which also hits a wasp's nest in the tree above him. A swarm of angry wasps then swoop down on Norman and then suddenly take an interest in the chocolate eclair.

Then when Norman does so, he falls down a hole and into the old disused coal mine.BBC Video Slide: ( Fireman Sam 1: The Hero Next Door, Fireman Sam 2: Lost Cat, Fireman Sam 3: Sam's Day Off and Fireman Sam 4: Snow Business with the music from the 1988-1991 BBC Video Ident) BBC Video Slide: (Fireman Sam 1: The Hero Next Door, Fireman Sam 2: Lost Cat, Fireman Sam 3: Sam's Day Off, Fireman Sam 4: Snow Business, Fireman Sam 5: Norman's Pitfall and Fireman Sam 6: All in A Good Cause)
