A legsötétebb Peruból jött medve újabb kalandjaiban tovább folytatódik a felfedezések sora: Kis barátunk többek között családi csoportképet készít, tűzijátékot rendez és a hagyományos karácsonyi bevásárlásból, készülődésből is kiveszi a részét.

Felfedezéseinek komikuma pedig pontosan e kísérletek gyakori sikertelenségéből ered.

Bár Paddington láthatóan el-eltéved a mindennapi élet útvesztőiben, valójában a vele kapcsolatba lépők sem bizonyulnak minden esetben nálánál talpraesettebbnek.
