Bedtime, Lucy! >

0:01:090:01:12

OK, Mum.

0:01:120:01:15

Hi, everyone.

0:01:380:01:41

-You look tired, Lucy.

-I had a busy day at school, but I had fun!

0:01:410:01:47

-What's school like, Lucy?

-Well, you play games,

0:01:470:01:52

-and you have lessons.

-Proper lessons, like we do?

0:01:520:01:57

Do you have lessons in the jungle, Nelson?

0:01:570:02:01

Oh, yes, all sorts of lessons! There are elephant lessons...

0:02:010:02:06

- And hippopotamus lessons... - And monkey lessons!

0:02:060:02:10

I remember when cousin Chuckles learnt HIS monkey lessons!

0:02:100:02:14

In the jungle, we were always playing jokes on our friends.

0:02:140:02:20

Here he comes, now!

0:02:220:02:25

Hey, Herbert!

0:02:270:02:30

-Fancy a nice muddy potato?

-Yes, please!

0:02:300:02:35

Here, catch!

0:02:350:02:37

Ow!

0:02:370:02:39

Mmm, thanks, guys! This is delicious.

0:02:450:02:49

No-one was safe if WE were around.

0:02:500:02:53

# La la, la la la la la... # Eugh!

0:02:530:02:57

What makes you so COOL, Zed?

0:03:000:03:03

It's my go-faster stripes, Giggles.

0:03:030:03:07

Just look how fast I can run!

0:03:070:03:10

JANGLING >

0:03:100:03:12

Oh, no! What a bunch of silly-billies!

0:03:120:03:16

Not even Nelson the elephant was safe!

0:03:160:03:20

No, don't. Please don't! Oh! O-Oh!

0:03:200:03:24

LAUGHS

0:03:240:03:27

All the animals secretly enjoyed our monkey tricks,

0:03:270:03:31

until one day, news of a visitor spread through the treetops!

0:03:310:03:36

-Did you hear?

-Giggles' and Tickles'...

-cousin Chuckles...

0:03:360:03:40

-is coming to stay...

-for the weekend!

0:03:400:03:43

Oh, no!

0:03:430:03:46

I bet he does lots of tricks!

0:03:460:03:49

Look out! Chuckles is coming!

0:03:500:03:53

# Here he comes, toot to to toot toot toot too-oot! #

0:03:530:03:58

Hooray! Let's hear it for Chuckles! Hooray!

0:03:580:04:03

ALL: Hooray! Hooray!

0:04:030:04:07

-Giggles and Tickles, I presume?

-Hi there, cousin! Gimme five!

0:04:090:04:14

-Five what?

-What?

-A high five! You know, like this!

0:04:140:04:19

Excuse me, Mr Elephant. Am I in the right place?

0:04:230:04:28

Call me Nelson. Yes, Chuckles, you are.

0:04:280:04:32

These are your cousins, Giggles and Tickles.

0:04:320:04:36

We made you a banana pie, Chuckles.

0:04:360:04:38

You know, a banana pie?

0:04:380:04:42

Giggles?

0:04:420:04:44

Would you like some ba-na-na pie?

0:04:440:04:48

Why, yes, Tickles. I would love some ba-na-na pie.

0:04:480:04:52

Shall I give it to him, Chuckles? You know, GIVE it to him?

0:04:520:04:57

Well, if he'd like some, yes!

0:04:570:05:00

Here, Giggles, a nice sticky pie just for you!

0:05:000:05:04

Well, I SUPPOSE you'd all like to get to bed early.

0:05:140:05:19

-Well, no, we'll have a party, with music, and...

-Perhaps tomorrow.

0:05:190:05:25

Is this your tree?

0:05:280:05:31

Ha ha, get off, Giggles!

0:05:370:05:40

Excuse me! Could you keep the noise down? I'm trying to concentrate.

0:05:460:05:52

Chuckles was VERY different from us. He didn't LIKE jokes!

0:05:520:05:57

But everywhere we went, Chuckles spoiled the fun!

0:06:070:06:12

-A-Aah!

-O-O-Oh.

-Watch out, Mr Elephant!

0:06:130:06:18

Aw-w-w!

0:06:180:06:20

Well, go on then, give it to me!

0:06:200:06:23

-I'll have that.

-Oh!

0:06:230:06:27

Oh.

0:06:270:06:29

Without our tricks, the jungle was VERY quiet.

0:06:290:06:33

The animals were VERY bored.

0:06:330:06:36

So, there's no fun, then?

0:06:360:06:38

Well, Nelson, if grass was fun, we'd all be eating sand for supper.

0:06:380:06:44

-ALL: Oh, no!

-It was a joke.

-Was it?

-Yes.

0:06:440:06:49

Oh, well, thanks, Herbert. Yes. Ha ha. Very nice.

0:06:490:06:54

Everyone in the jungle was bored!

0:06:540:06:57

And when Chuckles had read all his books, HE was bored too.

0:06:570:07:02

Then Giggles had an idea.

0:07:020:07:05

Chuckles, why don't you visit Dr Gordon? He's quite serious.

0:07:050:07:11

You can be serious together!

0:07:110:07:14

So Chuckles went to visit Dr Gordon Gorilla.

0:07:160:07:21

Hello... Atchoo!

0:07:290:07:32

..Chuckles. What are you doing here? Atchoo!

0:07:320:07:36

-I'm visiting Dr Gordon.

-So am I. Atchoo!

0:07:360:07:41

I can't stop sneezing. Atchoo!

0:07:410:07:45

I've got a bad back.

0:07:450:07:47

I feel depressed. Atchoo!

0:07:470:07:50

Me too.

0:07:500:07:52

-Hello, Chuckles.

->

0:07:520:07:55

Come in. I won't be a minute.

0:07:550:07:58

< Atchoo! Atchoo!

0:08:010:08:05

A-A-Ach. A-Aah. HIS TRUNK SQUEAKS

0:08:050:08:10

There. All better now. I always say that laughter is the best medicine.

0:08:130:08:19

-Laughter is a medicine?

-Yes! All they needed was a good laugh.

0:08:190:08:24

Your cousins usually keep all the animals happy.

0:08:240:08:28

-And, therefore, healthy?

-That's correct.

0:08:280:08:32

-I see.

-Would you like to study this book?

0:08:320:08:36

-It might help.

-Hmm.

0:08:360:08:39

Monkey lessons. Yes, very interesting!

0:08:390:08:44

Bye, Dr Gordon.

0:08:440:08:46

Chuckles started to read the book Dr Gordon gave him.

0:08:460:08:51

The first chapter was on tickling.

0:08:510:08:54

Chuckles found it quite difficult, but he kept practising, all night.

0:08:540:08:59

LAUGHS

0:08:590:09:02

The next day, Chuckles had a surprise for the animals!

0:09:040:09:09

Well, it's time for me to go. But first, I'll say a few words.

0:09:090:09:15

-This'll be boring.

-Animals, birds and insects.

0:09:150:09:20

-I'd like to say what a pleasure it's been to visit.

-How thoughtful!

0:09:200:09:25

I'd like to, but in fact it's been REALLY BORING!

0:09:250:09:30

THAT has been my fault entirely.

0:09:300:09:33

So, to make amends, I'd like to do...

0:09:330:09:36

this!

0:09:360:09:38

THIS!

0:09:380:09:41

-And THIS!

-LAUGHTER >

0:09:410:09:44

-Well done, Chuckles!

-You learned the main monkey lesson.

0:09:500:09:54

ALL: Keep them laughing!

0:09:540:09:58

Giggles and Tickles,

0:09:580:10:01

-I've made each of you a banana pie.

-You have?

0:10:010:10:05

Go on, Chuckles, give it to them!

0:10:050:10:08

And that's how Chuckles learnt his monkey lessons.

0:10:160:10:20

Now, he laughs all the time,

0:10:200:10:24

like this!

0:10:240:10:26

I wonder if I'll have monkey lessons at school tomorrow.

0:10:260:10:31

Now it's time for a sleeping lesson, Lucy.

0:10:310:10:35

-Sweet dreams, everyone.

-ALL: Goodnight, Lucy.
