Paddington is back again and things get very sticky! Somehow when this bear is around nothing seems to go quite according to plan...

Paddington takes some marmalade sandwiches to bed with him one night. He falls asleep dreaming of marmalade, and wakes up feeling rather sticky. He ends up having a bath in his pyjamas and doing a week's worth of washing, and all because of a sandwich that had gone astray!
