0:00:07 > 0:00:09Hello! I'm Lucy.

0:00:09 > 0:00:15I live at 64 Zoo Lane, and I have some very special neighbours. Look!

0:00:15 > 0:00:19# There's one with a hump And one who can jump

0:00:19 > 0:00:22# And one who is a little bit plump

0:00:22 > 0:00:26# 64, 64, 64 Zoo Lane

0:00:26 > 0:00:29# Some like it hot And some like it chilly

0:00:29 > 0:00:33# And some like it both ways and that's a bit silly

0:00:33 > 0:00:36# 64, 64, 64 Zoo Lane

0:00:36 > 0:00:39# Some are friendly, some are scary

0:00:39 > 0:00:43# But one thing is sure Not one is ordinary

0:00:43 > 0:00:46# 64, 64, 64 Zoo Lane

0:00:46 > 0:00:49# Some are spotty, some are stripy

0:00:49 > 0:00:53# Or prickly and woolly and furry and slimy

0:00:53 > 0:00:56# Some are quite big And some are very small

0:00:56 > 0:00:58# And the last one's Georgina

0:00:58 > 0:01:00# Who's incredibly tall

0:01:00 > 0:01:03# 64, 64, 64 Zoo Lane

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

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

0:01:27 > 0:01:28TAPPING

0:01:31 > 0:01:34Wheeeee! Yay!

0:01:36 > 0:01:39- ALL: Hi, Lucy.- Hello, everyone.

0:01:39 > 0:01:41Ready for your story?

0:01:41 > 0:01:46- Oh, yes. Can I choose the story tonight?- Of course you can.

0:01:47 > 0:01:51What kind of story would you like?

0:01:51 > 0:01:55- I'd like a story set in Africa. - ALL: Yes!

0:01:55 > 0:02:00- That rules me out then, I don't know any African stories.- Sorry, Boris.

0:02:03 > 0:02:07It has to be a story about a large animal.

0:02:07 > 0:02:11- Oh, an elephant?- A giraffe?

0:02:11 > 0:02:15No, a rhino! I want to hear a story about Ronald the rhino.

0:02:15 > 0:02:18Ahhh, remember when Ronald built

0:02:18 > 0:02:21a bridge across the Zamban River using boulders?

0:02:21 > 0:02:24Oh, yes, that's a good story.

0:02:24 > 0:02:28And I recall Ronald bashing the biggest boulder ever.

0:02:28 > 0:02:33- It made quite a noise. - Oh, yes, it did. Ha-ha!

0:02:33 > 0:02:36Do all Ronald stories have boulders in them?

0:02:36 > 0:02:38Aha! Of course.

0:02:38 > 0:02:43Let me tell you the best rhino story of all.

0:02:43 > 0:02:47The story of Ronald and his boulders.

0:02:48 > 0:02:51My favourite pastime has always been gardening.

0:02:51 > 0:02:54SHE SINGS HAPPILY

0:02:58 > 0:03:00Herbert the warthog

0:03:00 > 0:03:04loves gobbling up a juicy watermelon or two.

0:03:09 > 0:03:12Natalie the antelope adores ballet.

0:03:14 > 0:03:18And Ronald the rhino, well, he's into bashing boulders.

0:03:20 > 0:03:24His friend the Tick Tick bird was not so keen on boulder bashing.

0:03:24 > 0:03:28But he went along with it because it made Ronald happy.

0:03:28 > 0:03:34And so, every day, come rain or shine, Ronald bashed boulders.

0:03:34 > 0:03:36He bashed big boulders,

0:03:36 > 0:03:40and medium-sized boulders,

0:03:40 > 0:03:42and small boulders.

0:03:42 > 0:03:44Until one day...

0:03:46 > 0:03:48Uh-oh.

0:03:48 > 0:03:51There were no boulders left.

0:03:51 > 0:03:54I think you just bashed the last boulder there, Ronald.

0:03:54 > 0:03:58It can't be!

0:03:58 > 0:04:02Just think of all the other things we can do now.

0:04:05 > 0:04:07Go down to the lake for a swim!

0:04:07 > 0:04:09A game of fruitball,

0:04:09 > 0:04:12have a picnic in a jungle clearing!

0:04:12 > 0:04:15No! I want to bash something,

0:04:15 > 0:04:19we must go on an expedition to find new boulders.

0:04:19 > 0:04:26- But, Ronald, there is not a single one left in all of Africa!- No.

0:04:26 > 0:04:32Yes, you will just have to get used to a life without boulders, Ronald.

0:04:36 > 0:04:39But Ronald was wondering what else he could bash.

0:04:43 > 0:04:45Here goes!

0:04:45 > 0:04:46Ohhhhh!

0:04:47 > 0:04:50Stop!

0:05:03 > 0:05:05So sorry, Mr and Mrs Weaver Bird,

0:05:05 > 0:05:08my friend Ronald hadn't seen your nest.

0:05:15 > 0:05:17I really think we should do something else now.

0:05:17 > 0:05:21We could visit Georgina in her garden.

0:05:21 > 0:05:24Look, Tick Tick, a mound of earth.

0:05:24 > 0:05:26What harm could bashing that do?

0:05:26 > 0:05:28Ohhhhhh!

0:05:29 > 0:05:33Ah, ah, ow!

0:05:33 > 0:05:36Ah! I'm stuck!

0:05:51 > 0:05:53Oh, Ronald!

0:06:02 > 0:06:07OK, Ronald, from now on there will be no more bashing.

0:06:08 > 0:06:10Let's whistle a song instead.

0:06:10 > 0:06:13HE WHISTLES

0:06:13 > 0:06:16That's a ridiculous idea.

0:06:18 > 0:06:21- You don't like my whistling? - It's annoying.

0:06:21 > 0:06:24Annoying! How can you say that after

0:06:24 > 0:06:28all these years I've put up with your pointless boulder bashing?

0:06:29 > 0:06:33Oh! Boulder bashing is not pointless,

0:06:33 > 0:06:35it's a very interesting and deeply satisfying activity.

0:06:35 > 0:06:38- No, it isn't.- Yes, it is.

0:06:41 > 0:06:43Huh!

0:06:43 > 0:06:44Hah!

0:06:44 > 0:06:49The Tick Tick bird wanted to get as far away from Ronald as possible

0:06:49 > 0:06:55and Ronald wanted to get as far away from the Tick Tick bird as possible.

0:06:57 > 0:07:01Ronald wasn't very happy... and neither was the Tick Tick bird.

0:07:01 > 0:07:06He decided to whistle a little tune to cheer himself up.

0:07:06 > 0:07:08HE WHISTLES

0:07:08 > 0:07:10I wonder what Ronald is doing?

0:07:10 > 0:07:15Maybe I should've gone with him on his expedition to find new boulders.

0:07:15 > 0:07:21- Did you say you're looking for boulders?- Yes. Have you seen any?

0:07:21 > 0:07:25Over there, Rumble Mountain,

0:07:25 > 0:07:29- it is where boulders are made. - Tell me more.

0:07:29 > 0:07:34Every now and then the volcano erupts,

0:07:34 > 0:07:36spitting out big boulders.

0:07:36 > 0:07:41Oh! I'll go and have a look. Cheers, Esmeralda.

0:07:41 > 0:07:43Be careful.

0:08:00 > 0:08:04GURGLING

0:08:04 > 0:08:08I suppose I'll have to get down there.

0:08:08 > 0:08:09Waaah!

0:08:14 > 0:08:16Aaaaah!

0:08:20 > 0:08:25Meanwhile, Ronald was starting to miss the Tick Tick bird.

0:08:25 > 0:08:28Oh, I've been a silly rhino.

0:08:28 > 0:08:31I don't really care about boulders any more.

0:08:31 > 0:08:34All I want is to have my friend Tick Tick back.

0:08:36 > 0:08:39I will tell Tick Tick we can sing his song together.

0:09:02 > 0:09:05Oh, boulders, boulders!

0:09:05 > 0:09:07So many boulders!

0:09:07 > 0:09:11HE LAUGHS

0:09:14 > 0:09:16But, oh, where's Tick Tick?

0:09:21 > 0:09:23Waaaaaah!

0:09:23 > 0:09:25Ohhh!

0:09:25 > 0:09:28- Oh! Tick Tick!- Ta-da!

0:09:30 > 0:09:32HE STRAINS

0:09:34 > 0:09:37I've brought you some boulders.

0:09:37 > 0:09:40Hee, hee. And I've come to whistle a song with you.

0:09:45 > 0:09:47THEY WHISTLE HAPPILY

0:09:57 > 0:10:00Ronald and the Tick Tick bird

0:10:00 > 0:10:03were very happy to be friends again.

0:10:03 > 0:10:08That was a brilliant Ronald the rhino story.

0:10:08 > 0:10:11- Can I tell a rhino story now?- And me.

0:10:11 > 0:10:15Of course, Monkey, but not tonight.

0:10:15 > 0:10:18It's Lucy's bedtime now.

0:10:20 > 0:10:24I want you all to save your rhino stories for me.

0:10:24 > 0:10:26ALL: Yes!

0:10:26 > 0:10:32But tomorrow evening I'd like to hear a bear story from Boris.

0:10:32 > 0:10:35Good night, Lucy.

0:10:39 > 0:10:41ALL: Sweet dreams!
