Overview
Sam receives new equipment for fighting fires. It proves to be useful when careless campers fail to put out their fires in the fields. Trevor tries to take the children swimming but his bus breaks down on the way and whilst he fixes it, the youngsters go off to explore. When they try to lead Dusty back to the bus, they are swallowed up in a pall of smoke from the burning fields. Fireman Sam arrives with his new piece of equipment to save the day.
About the show
Fireman Sam is an animated comedy children's television series about a fireman called Sam, his fellow firefighters, and other townspeople in the fictional Welsh rural town of Pontypandy (a portmanteau of two real towns, Pontypridd and Tonypandy, which are situated approximately 5 miles (8.0 km) apart in the South Wales valleys). The original idea for the show came from two ex-firemen from Kent, who took their idea to artist and writer Rob Lee who developed the concept, and the show was later commissioned by S4C. Fireman Sam first appeared in Welsh on S4C as Sam Tân in 1987, and later that year in English on BBC1. The original series finished in 1994, and a new series that expanded the character cast commenced in 2005. The series was also shown in Gaelic in Scotland, where it was known as Sam Smalaidh . The series was sold to over 40 countries and has been used across the United Kingdom to promote fire safety.
