Synopsis

Sam organizes a Fun Run for the neighborhood children, and he carefully marks out the route with paper arrows. Bella kindly offers a chocolate cake as first prize, which brings out Norman's ruthless competitive streak- he'll stop at nothing to win that cake! Thanks to Norman, James takes a tumble and twists his ankle. It's then that Norman has to work with his friends to construct a huge arrow on the ground so that they can be spotted by the rescue team overhead.

Fireman Sam is used by fire brigades across the United Kingdom to deliver a safety message to children.

Broadcast simultaneously in English (on the BBC) and Welsh (on S4C).

Welsh title of series: "Sam Smalaidh."
