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.

Also, each story includes a subplot which was not in the series – Elvis being sacked as Fire Station cook, the training film, and Norman's pet hedgehog were all created for the stage play.

A few weeks later, the fire station crew set to work on a training film with Norman Price as Trevor's "gofer".

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 as a light source 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.
