You know, there was once a war in the explorer's country. Thousands of children were sent away for safety, left at railway stations with labels around their necks, and unknown families took them in and loved them like their own.

They will not have forgotten how to treat a stranger.

I am too old and too tired to go any further. Oh. Then, what will you do? Oh, don't you worry about me. I will be safe in the home for retired bears. But it is not yet time for you to retire. You must find a new home. In London. But... But I don't know anyone there. What if they don't even like bears?

- OK. - Yes! - Excuse me? - Hello. I'm dreadfully sorry, I don't actually know your name. Well, I've got a bear name, but it seems to be rather hard to pronounce. That's not ripe. - Perhaps you'd like an English name. - An English name? Like what?

Oh, at last. Oh. Er, wait for me. Is someone coming to get him? Everyone's gone. He'll have to come with us. - No way. - Dad! - Stay where you are. - He's so embarrassing. We can't leave him here. We can. He's not our responsibility. He's a young bear who needs our help, Henry. It's just for one night, until we can find the right people to look after him. There you are.

Every morning it arrives at 11 o'clock, bringing salvation. Just like a train that I took many years ago. - Really? - Oh, yes. You see, there was a lot of trouble in my country. So my parents sent me all the way across Europe, when I was not much older than you are now.
