A Change Is As Good As A Rest is the twentieth episode of Underground Ernie. It originally aired on June 30th, 2006.

Plot[]

Jubilee and Brooklyn are swapping lines, much to their excitement. Jubilee leaves for New York, and the rest of the crew is feeling sad without him. Brooklyn sees this, and suggests playing music to cheer everyone up, then that night at the sheds, suggests to the other trains that they should swap lines.

Ernie approves of the idea, just as long as everything goes to schedule. However, things aren't going to plan - Pippa is unaware of the switch and unknowingly boards Circle who's running on Bakerloo's line, Hammersmith and City are too busy listening to Dr Hart's stories and Victoria grows impatient when talking to Ernie's nephews.

Mr Rails sorts out the music and starts to play it when all the passengers are complaining. Millie tries to radio Ernie for help, but the music is too loud for Ernie to hear her! Brooklyn then gets lost and tries to radio Millie for help, but she can't hear him either! Brooklyn and Bakerloo almost crash but stop in the nick of time. Ernie arrives at the scene and instructs all the trains to get back to their usual lines, much to everyone's relief.

Brooklyn apologises for having a bad idea, but Ernie tells him that some good came out of today - Dr Hart liked the music so much he's now playing it for his patients on the wards. Brooklyn leaves feeling proud of himself, and Jubilee returns to the sheds to a chorus of cheers. Jubilee has heard about what happened while he was gone and jokingly suggests swapping lines, much to everyone's amusement. They like things just the way they are!
