In 1998, the University of Oxford produced a specially made version of the short specifically designed for learning the English language. In this version, most of Wallace's lines have been completely re-written and re-dubbed to suit the simple vocabulary, with Peter Sallis reprising his role, and narration done by
Stephen Tompkinson to explain what was going on screen, such as what action the characters were doing, the name of the objects they were holding, and talk to them during certain points of each scene.
