Video Description And Facts:
Fireman Sam in Action is a 1996 live-action stage play/film based on the animated British children's television series Fireman Sam.

The play features three stories, Fire Station Flood Alert, Dilys' Attic Fire and Pontypandy Fireworks Party, and was filmed and released straight to video. The film was released on 1 April 1996 on BBC Video.

The opening sequence of this film was filmed on location at Aldenham Country Park, Borehamwood, Hertfordshire, England. It features children learning fire safety with Sam played by Gary Lucas. The show, created by Paragraph International (based at Pinewood Studios) toured worldwide with Writer and Director, Charles Savage for 7 years along with a Postman Pat Musical.

Fire Station Flood Alert
Station Officer Steele fires Elvis Cridlington as the station cook. This gives Fireman Sam an idea; He invents Pancake Prototype One and a robot called Bentley to be Elvis' replacement ("Gently, Bentley"). Whilst spring-cleaning, Elvis, exasperated with Bentley's constant whistling, decides to place his Elvis Presley cassette into the robot. This causes Bentley to malfunction and ends up breaking the stopcock, causing a flood inside the fire station. When it's all sorted, the crew start having what Bentley has cooked, bangers and mash. It turns out that Bentley isn't a good replacement, and everyone decides Elvis should be reappointed ("Elvis Cooks The Lunch").

Dilys' Attic Fire
A few weeks later, the fire station crew set to work on a training film with Norman Price as Trevor's "gofer". Production of the training film begins. Norman gets bored of being a gofer, so Penny suggests he play a victim in their staged rescue, along with Sam's niece and nephew Sarah and James. Later, Dilys Price looks for treasure in her attic after reading a magazine article, but the candle she uses for light starts a fire in the house. When she's getting rescued, she argues about not letting go of a valuable vase that she found and could be in danger of breaking, and it ends up in Trevor's hands. Dilys lavishly praises the fire brigade, but they say it's all in a day's work ("By Jupiter, By Jupiter").

Pontypandy Fireworks Party
On 5 November, the crew are preparing a bonfire for Bonfire Night, under the command of Station Officer Steele ("The Person In Charge Is Station Officer Steele"). Norman is dressed as a tree and pinches Bella and Dilys' bottoms ("Naughty Norman Price"). His plan is foiled by some railings, in which he ends up getting stuck. After the crew rescue him from the railings, Norman introduces his pet hedgehog, which he calls Brian. Brian scampers into the bonfire and Norman panics to get him out. The crew set up the guy and light the bonfire, but Norman, who is searching for Brian, is in danger of being killed. After he's rescued, it's revealed that Brian was a female hedgehog and had just had babies. Sam renames the hedgehog Bronwyn, but advises Norman to let the hedgehogs off into their natural habitat. Trevor and Elvis light the bonfire, and the celebrations are underway ("Remember, Remember The Fifth of November").
