0:01:09 > 0:01:11Bedtime, Lucy!

0:01:11 > 0:01:13OK, Mum.

0:01:31 > 0:01:32Whee!

0:01:38 > 0:01:40You seem very excited.

0:01:40 > 0:01:44I've just been somewhere absolutely fantastic.

0:01:44 > 0:01:47Really? Where's that?

0:01:47 > 0:01:50Jocasta's house. She's my new friend from school.

0:01:50 > 0:01:54Her house is amazing. It's got pink bedrooms and a swimming pool

0:01:54 > 0:01:58and a conservatory THIS big.

0:01:58 > 0:02:02- Swimming pool?- Conservatory?

0:02:02 > 0:02:05BOTH: Oooh! Fancy!

0:02:05 > 0:02:07That does sound nice, Lucy.

0:02:07 > 0:02:10Nice? It's the best house in the whole world.

0:02:12 > 0:02:14Much better than mine.

0:02:14 > 0:02:17Maybe I should ask Mum and Dad to move.

0:02:17 > 0:02:19Move house, eh?

0:02:19 > 0:02:22That reminds me of the time Toby the tortoise

0:02:22 > 0:02:24grew tired of his little house.

0:02:24 > 0:02:28Oh, yes. That is a good story.

0:02:28 > 0:02:32It was a bright, sunny day in Africa.

0:02:34 > 0:02:38Ronald and his tik-tik bird were hard at work.

0:02:38 > 0:02:43Hmmm...we need a couple more medium-sized boulders, Ronald.

0:02:43 > 0:02:45Coming up, Tik-Tik.

0:02:46 > 0:02:48Reginald the lion was busy too.

0:02:48 > 0:02:51That's better.

0:02:51 > 0:02:54Much cooler! Ah!

0:02:55 > 0:02:58And Doris the duck had grand plans.

0:02:58 > 0:03:01She was moving nest.

0:03:03 > 0:03:04There.

0:03:09 > 0:03:10Whoa!

0:03:10 > 0:03:13In fact, it seemed everyone in Africa

0:03:13 > 0:03:17was doing something to make their home better than before.

0:03:17 > 0:03:19Well, nearly everyone.

0:03:19 > 0:03:21I wonder where Doris is.

0:03:21 > 0:03:25I don't know. She wasn't home when I looked earlier.

0:03:26 > 0:03:30I can't quite see where to put it.

0:03:30 > 0:03:33Um...try here.

0:03:35 > 0:03:39You win again.

0:03:39 > 0:03:42I'm getting really good at this.

0:03:42 > 0:03:4676 games to none.

0:03:46 > 0:03:51Kevin! Toby! Come and see what I've made.

0:03:51 > 0:03:55Oh, Doris! You weren't in your nest when I called by.

0:03:55 > 0:03:59Oh, that old thing! I don't live there anymore.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01I've built myself a proper house.

0:04:01 > 0:04:03Come and see!

0:04:11 > 0:04:13Whoa!

0:04:13 > 0:04:18It's got the best views in all of Africa!

0:04:18 > 0:04:20What about you, Toby?

0:04:20 > 0:04:24Why don't you do something about that old shell of yours?

0:04:24 > 0:04:28Me? There isn't much you can do to a shell to make it better.

0:04:28 > 0:04:31Oh, nonsense!

0:04:31 > 0:04:34You just need a bit of imagination and effort.

0:04:34 > 0:04:38But I think Toby's shell's perfect just as it is.

0:04:38 > 0:04:41It's hot and dusty.

0:04:41 > 0:04:43And there's only room enough for one.

0:04:43 > 0:04:45I wouldn't put up with it.

0:04:45 > 0:04:48I suppose it is rather small,

0:04:48 > 0:04:52but it's shady on the inside.

0:04:52 > 0:04:57Inside? Who wants to be on the inside on a lovely day like this?

0:04:57 > 0:05:01What you need is a nice sunshade like Reginald the lion's.

0:05:04 > 0:05:09Come on, Toby. Time to bring that old shell of yours up to date.

0:05:11 > 0:05:13That's more like it!

0:05:13 > 0:05:16I suppose it IS nice and shady.

0:05:19 > 0:05:20Morning, Toby.

0:05:20 > 0:05:22Toby?

0:05:22 > 0:05:24Who's there?

0:05:24 > 0:05:27Mind my egg!

0:05:27 > 0:05:31- Ooh! Uh! Oooh!- Oooh!

0:05:31 > 0:05:32Oh! Ruined!

0:05:32 > 0:05:34After all my hard work!

0:05:34 > 0:05:38Will someone tell me what's going on?

0:05:38 > 0:05:42Doris is helping Toby improve his shell.

0:05:42 > 0:05:47It doesn't look like much of an improvement to me.

0:05:47 > 0:05:50Ooh! Follow me, Toby!

0:05:50 > 0:05:54What you need is more space.

0:05:54 > 0:05:56But you can't make his shell bigger.

0:05:56 > 0:05:59No such word as "can't," Kevin!

0:06:05 > 0:06:06Ooops.

0:06:06 > 0:06:07A-ha!

0:06:08 > 0:06:12Ronald, we need you half-boulder.

0:06:12 > 0:06:14You do? But it's broken.

0:06:14 > 0:06:17Exactly!

0:06:17 > 0:06:19Can you hollow it out.

0:06:22 > 0:06:23Like this?

0:06:23 > 0:06:26Perfect! Toby, come and try it on.

0:06:26 > 0:06:29Try what on, Doris?

0:06:29 > 0:06:31Your new shell!

0:06:31 > 0:06:34Are you sure about this, Toby?

0:06:35 > 0:06:37Of course he's sure!

0:06:39 > 0:06:40One,

0:06:40 > 0:06:42two, three...

0:06:46 > 0:06:49Oooh-uhh!

0:06:49 > 0:06:52Hurrah! Much bigger!

0:06:52 > 0:06:56Now you can invite your friends inside for tea.

0:06:56 > 0:06:58Whoa! Oooh-uh!

0:06:58 > 0:07:00Oooh, ooh!

0:07:00 > 0:07:01Ooh-uh!

0:07:01 > 0:07:03Help!

0:07:03 > 0:07:05I can't move!

0:07:05 > 0:07:08Nice view of the sky, though.

0:07:10 > 0:07:14Maybe I'm not meant to have a new home, Doris.

0:07:14 > 0:07:15Rubbish!

0:07:15 > 0:07:20If we can't make it bigger, we can at least make it brighter.

0:07:20 > 0:07:23Get rid of those boring old checks!

0:07:23 > 0:07:25Now, let's see...

0:07:25 > 0:07:29Flower prints - ooh, no. So last year.

0:07:29 > 0:07:31Spots? No.

0:07:31 > 0:07:33Of course!

0:07:33 > 0:07:35Stripes!

0:07:40 > 0:07:44Look at me! I've got a new house!

0:07:44 > 0:07:48Thank you, Doris. Thank you, Kevin.

0:07:48 > 0:07:53But after all their hard work, the three friends were so tired out,

0:07:53 > 0:07:58they needed a little nap before showing everyone Toby's new shell.

0:07:58 > 0:08:03Meanwhile, Zed the Zebra was late for band practice.

0:08:03 > 0:08:07Oh, late again, and only one maraca!

0:08:07 > 0:08:12I know I left the other one round here somewhere.

0:08:14 > 0:08:15A-ha!

0:08:16 > 0:08:18There it is.

0:08:22 > 0:08:25- There you are, Zed. - We were about to start without you.

0:08:25 > 0:08:27Without ME?

0:08:27 > 0:08:29Don't be ridiculous?

0:08:29 > 0:08:30Ready?

0:08:30 > 0:08:33With a one, a two, a one, two, three, four!

0:08:36 > 0:08:39AARDVARK TRUMPETS

0:08:44 > 0:08:46Nice rhythm, Zed.

0:08:46 > 0:08:49Best maracas in Africa.

0:08:49 > 0:08:51I am not ma-ra-cas!

0:08:51 > 0:08:54Oooh!

0:08:54 > 0:08:58Luckily, Toby's cries woke his friends.

0:08:58 > 0:08:59Ooooh! Ooh!

0:08:59 > 0:09:00Oh! Oh!

0:09:00 > 0:09:03- That sounds like...- Toby!

0:09:03 > 0:09:04Quick!

0:09:05 > 0:09:08Sto-o-o-o-op!

0:09:08 > 0:09:09Who said, "Stop"?

0:09:09 > 0:09:11Not me.

0:09:11 > 0:09:13Put him down!

0:09:17 > 0:09:21Zed, I think there's a problem with one of your maracas.

0:09:24 > 0:09:25Oh!

0:09:25 > 0:09:28Oh dear! Sorry, old chap,

0:09:28 > 0:09:31but you need to watch it with the stripes.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33Very confusing.

0:09:33 > 0:09:35Are you all right, Toby?

0:09:35 > 0:09:37I - I think so.

0:09:37 > 0:09:41I just want my old shell back.

0:09:41 > 0:09:44After all my hard work!

0:09:48 > 0:09:49Oh!

0:09:49 > 0:09:52Come on, then! If you must.

0:09:54 > 0:09:57Your very own home back, Toby.

0:09:57 > 0:10:00Just the way I like it.

0:10:00 > 0:10:02Only better!

0:10:02 > 0:10:03BOTH: Better?

0:10:03 > 0:10:07All that scrubbing's made it really shiny.

0:10:08 > 0:10:11Just right for a nice game.

0:10:13 > 0:10:14There.

0:10:19 > 0:10:23And so they all played noughts and crosses together

0:10:23 > 0:10:25on Toby's shiny shell.

0:10:25 > 0:10:30Who needs a fancy swimming pool or a conservatory,

0:10:30 > 0:10:32when you live in the best house in the world,

0:10:32 > 0:10:36right next door to all my friends.

0:10:38 > 0:10:44And now it's time to go back to your own bed in your own house.

0:10:44 > 0:10:47Good night, sweet dreams, everyone.

0:10:47 > 0:10:49ALL: Sweet dreams, Lucy!
