0:01:12 > 0:01:15OK, Mum.

0:01:35 > 0:01:39- ANIMALS: Hello, Lucy!- Hi, everyone.

0:01:39 > 0:01:43What kind of story would you like to hear tonight?

0:01:43 > 0:01:45What can I choose from?

0:01:45 > 0:01:50Well, I know a dangerously dramatic story.

0:01:50 > 0:01:52We've got a fabulously funny story!

0:01:52 > 0:01:56And I know a lovely love story.

0:01:56 > 0:01:59MONKEYS: A love story? Yuk!

0:01:59 > 0:02:04I don't think Lucy wants to hear a love story.

0:02:04 > 0:02:07- Well, maybe...- Bet it's boring. - No, it's not.

0:02:07 > 0:02:10- BOTH: Bet it is!- A-hem!

0:02:10 > 0:02:13Why don't we have a vote?

0:02:13 > 0:02:15ALL: Yes! OK.

0:02:15 > 0:02:21If you DON'T want to hear the love story, raise your hand or trunk now.

0:02:24 > 0:02:29And now, those who DO want to hear Georgina's story...

0:02:31 > 0:02:35That's three in favour and three against.

0:02:35 > 0:02:39- What about you, Boris? - Well, actually...

0:02:39 > 0:02:41I WOULD like to hear the love story.

0:02:41 > 0:02:44BORIS!

0:02:45 > 0:02:48Georgina, please tell us your story.

0:02:48 > 0:02:53Thank you, Lucy. This is the story of Ronald and Rosie.

0:02:53 > 0:02:57Ronald the rhino was strong and tough.

0:02:57 > 0:03:00He wasn't scared of anything...

0:03:00 > 0:03:02or anyone.

0:03:02 > 0:03:05CHUCKLING

0:03:09 > 0:03:14It's Victor the crocodile. He's mean and nasty!

0:03:14 > 0:03:18Mean and nasty, eh? Well, so am I!

0:03:19 > 0:03:21Help!

0:03:21 > 0:03:24Why does it always happen to ME?

0:03:25 > 0:03:31'But Ronald the rhino wasn't always tough. One day, Ronald saw Rosie.

0:03:31 > 0:03:36'She was everything he'd ever dreamed of - tougher than a tornado,

0:03:36 > 0:03:40'with a sweet smile and lovely long eyelashes.'

0:03:40 > 0:03:45- Shall I ask Rosie if she'd like to bash a boulder with me?- Yeah.

0:03:45 > 0:03:48She likes you.

0:03:51 > 0:03:53Er...a-hem!

0:03:53 > 0:03:55Yes? Did you want to say something?

0:03:55 > 0:04:00I, um... I thought we could, er...MIGHT, er...

0:04:00 > 0:04:03If you don't mind, we could, um...

0:04:03 > 0:04:07- We could WHAT?! - Nothing. It's nothing. Sorry.

0:04:07 > 0:04:10I thought you were someone else.

0:04:10 > 0:04:12- Bye!- Bye.

0:04:12 > 0:04:16'Suddenly, Ronald wasn't so tough any more.

0:04:16 > 0:04:21'He liked Rosie, but he didn't know how to show his feelings,

0:04:21 > 0:04:25'so he went to Audrey the Agony Ostrich for help.'

0:04:25 > 0:04:30- Audrey...can I have a word? - Ronald! Yes, of course.

0:04:30 > 0:04:33How marvellous to see you! How can I help?

0:04:33 > 0:04:37Well, I have a problem. It's like this.

0:04:37 > 0:04:42I've just met a beautiful rhinoceros. Her name's Rosie.

0:04:42 > 0:04:46- Oh, how lovely. - I want to be Rosie's friend,

0:04:46 > 0:04:50- but I'm too shy to talk to her. - Don't worry, Ronald.

0:04:50 > 0:04:53The solution's very simple.

0:04:53 > 0:04:55Give Rosie some flowers.

0:04:55 > 0:04:58I'm sure she'd like that.

0:05:00 > 0:05:03'So Ronald picked some flowers.'

0:05:05 > 0:05:07I hope she likes the flowers.

0:05:07 > 0:05:10Maybe she doesn't like flowers.

0:05:10 > 0:05:14Of course she likes flowers. I hope she does.

0:05:16 > 0:05:19- Ugh!- Hi, Rosie.- Mmm?

0:05:19 > 0:05:24I've brought you a flower posy. Rosie-posy. Get it?

0:05:24 > 0:05:25Ohh!

0:05:25 > 0:05:29- Ronald?- Yes?- The flowers.

0:05:29 > 0:05:32- Yes?- Where are they?

0:05:32 > 0:05:34Uh-oh.

0:05:39 > 0:05:42AUDREY: Oh, Ronald, you need a plan.

0:05:42 > 0:05:44Um... Yes, I know!

0:05:44 > 0:05:49You must build a nest. BOTH: A nest?

0:05:49 > 0:05:53Yes, a lovely, romantic nest like the weaver birds.

0:05:53 > 0:05:58# Yabba dabba da! Babbity, babbity ba ba! #

0:05:58 > 0:06:00'So Ronald built a nest.'

0:06:00 > 0:06:03# Dabbity, babbity ba ba ba... #

0:06:03 > 0:06:06Hi, Rosie. Look what I made...

0:06:06 > 0:06:09- just for you.- A nest?

0:06:09 > 0:06:14- For ME?! Oh, Ronald, you shouldn't have!- After you.

0:06:17 > 0:06:19Oh, Ronald! It's lovely!

0:06:19 > 0:06:22So pretty.

0:06:32 > 0:06:37- You're too heavy. I'm sorry, I didn't mean, um...- Huh!

0:06:43 > 0:06:45There MUST be a way.

0:06:46 > 0:06:49Poetry! >

0:06:49 > 0:06:51That'll do the trick.

0:06:52 > 0:06:55Rosie, O Rosie

0:06:55 > 0:06:58Wherefore art thou Rosie?

0:06:58 > 0:07:00WHISTLES SWEETLY

0:07:02 > 0:07:06My dearest rhino Rosie

0:07:06 > 0:07:10I'm sorry I ate your posy

0:07:10 > 0:07:13And the nest was not that cosy

0:07:13 > 0:07:18But I love your great big nosey!

0:07:18 > 0:07:20Oh, no!

0:07:20 > 0:07:22Are you saying I have a big nose?

0:07:22 > 0:07:25Yes. Well, no. I mean...

0:07:25 > 0:07:29your nose isn't SMALL. Um...in fact, it's quite big.

0:07:29 > 0:07:32But I think it's cute.

0:07:32 > 0:07:38- I've never been so insulted in all my life.- Come back, Nosey...Rosie!

0:07:38 > 0:07:41I didn't mean to! Rosie, please!

0:07:45 > 0:07:47'Audrey was running out of ideas.'

0:07:49 > 0:07:51Oh, I've got it!

0:07:51 > 0:07:55- You must be Rosie's hero. - Rosie's hero?

0:07:55 > 0:07:58Yes, you must rescue Rosie.

0:07:58 > 0:08:01Rescue her? Rescue her from what?

0:08:01 > 0:08:03Something awful,

0:08:03 > 0:08:05something scary,

0:08:05 > 0:08:10- something dangerous. - But, Audrey, it won't work.

0:08:10 > 0:08:14Rosie's a rhino. She's not scared of anything. It's no use.

0:08:14 > 0:08:19I'll just have to be a very...lonely rhino.

0:08:19 > 0:08:22'Ronald felt very sad.'

0:08:22 > 0:08:25Oh, Rosie, oh, Rosie,

0:08:25 > 0:08:27if only you knew.

0:08:27 > 0:08:30'Then, something happened -

0:08:30 > 0:08:36'something awful AND scary AND dangerous.'

0:08:36 > 0:08:37Argh!

0:08:37 > 0:08:39Help!

0:08:39 > 0:08:41Ooh!

0:08:43 > 0:08:46- Argh!- Help! Help!

0:08:49 > 0:08:52WHISTLING

0:08:52 > 0:08:55Help! Help!

0:09:09 > 0:09:13Help! Argh! Help!

0:09:14 > 0:09:16Ohh!

0:09:16 > 0:09:21- Are you all right, Ronald? - Oh, Rosie, you rescued me.

0:09:21 > 0:09:27- Oh, that's OK.- I was supposed to rescue YOU.- Never mind.

0:09:27 > 0:09:31You can rescue ME...next time.

0:09:31 > 0:09:34Next time?! Oh, great! Uh...

0:09:34 > 0:09:37- Rosie...?- Yes, Ronald.

0:09:37 > 0:09:43Er, Rosie...would you like to, er...bash a boulder with me?

0:09:43 > 0:09:45Why, I'd love to, Ronald.

0:09:55 > 0:10:00And so Ronald and Rosie lived happily ever after.

0:10:00 > 0:10:04- And the tick birds? - They lived happily ever after, too.

0:10:04 > 0:10:05Aw...

0:10:05 > 0:10:10Ohh, I've had enough of this lovey-dovey stuff.

0:10:10 > 0:10:14Yes, so have I. Let's play a game!

0:10:14 > 0:10:17- I know a good game.- What is it?!

0:10:17 > 0:10:19- What is it?- Kiss-chase.
