Valiant Page #3

Synopsis: Set in 1944, Valiant is a woodland pigeon who wants to become a great hero someday. When he hears they are hiring recruits for the Royal Homing Pigeon Service, he immediately sets out for London. On the way, he meets a smelly but friendly pigeon named Bugsy, who joins him, mainly to get away from clients he cheated in a game of find-the pebble, and helps him sign up for the war.

Clear off, the pair of you.

Get lost.

Wing Commander Gutsy, he...

Yes. Wing Commander Gutsy.

That's right. Valiant's best mate.

They went to school together.

You don't want to get

on the wrong side of him.

If he hears about this, you are

gonna lose those stripes, mate.

You know Wing Commander Gutsy,

you say?

Well, uh, yeah.

Well, that makes a difference.

- Sign here.

- Oh, thank you.

Thank you, sir.

- There he is.

- You dirty rat!

- [squawking]

- When I get hold of you,

- I'm gonna knock your beak off.

- That's it.

- Pigeons only.

- Get your hands off me!

- I'm gonna get you. Go on.

- [Bugsy] Where do I sign up?

Just sign here.

Oh!

- All right, in you go.

- [Valiant] Thank you, sir.

- [whooping]

- Who is this Gutsy?

If I see your ugly face around here,

I'm gonna have you...

[groaning]

- We made it.

- Safe and sound.

We're in the Royal

Homing Pigeon Service!

The elite of the elite.

Fighting the heroic battle to save...

To save our tail feathers.

Which worked like a charm.

Even though I say so myself.

With that, I'll be hitting the skyway.

Cheers, mate. Good luck.

God bless. If you make it back

in one piece, be sure to, uh,

Iook me up...

Hello? Hello?

[chuckling]

Gents? Hello.

Hello?

[gasping] No! There's been

a terrible mistake!

Trust me. This is all

gonna work out brilliantly.

- Hey! Come on. Come back.

- [whistling]

[squawking]

I've been Shanghaied!

[military march plays]

Ah! Oh! Ah!

- [muttering]

- Sorry.

- Oh!

- [Valiant] Excuse me.

- Beg your pardon.

- That's a bit bright.

- [groaning]

- [gasping]

- Wow.

- [laughter]

[laughing]

- Whoa.

- Oh! [groaning]

Sorry about that, mate.

Didn't mean to hurt you,

little fella.

Hey! Little fella?

It's not the size

of your wingspan. No.

It's the size of your spirit.

- If you say so, mate.

- Can't argue with that.

Well, I'm Tailfeather.

This is Toughwood, my brother.

- Hi, yes?

- Not the sharpest beak on the block.

[laughing] He's not

the sharpest beak...

- What?

- But if you're ever in a scrum,

there's no better bird

to have on your team.

- Yeah, absolutely.

- Nice to meet you. I'm Valiant.

- Valiant. It's good to meet you.

- Let's go.

- It's two for the Tailfeather.

- Tailfeather takes it on.

- Ooh.

- [both grunting]

[chuckling]

Oh, dear. [sniffing] Ew.

For a quote, elite unit, unquote,

they seem to be letting in

anything with wings.

Including those flies

circling your bottom.

Oi, who do you think you are?

I am Lofty Thaddeus

Worthington Pigeon,

I come from a long and honorable line

of warrior pigeons.

Well, now, lads.

- I trust you've had a pleasant journey.

- [Lofty] Well...

I think I speak for all of us
