0:00:04 > 0:00:07# 64, 64, 64 Zoo Lane... #

0:00:07 > 0:00:12Hello, I'm Lucy. I live at 64 Zoo Lane.

0:00:12 > 0:00:15And I have some very special neighbours. Look!

0:00:15 > 0:00:18# There's one with a hump and one who can jump

0:00:18 > 0:00:22# And one who is, well, 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 > 0:00:42# But one thing is sure - not one is ordinary

0:00:42 > 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# They're prickly and woolly and furry and slimy

0:00:53 > 0:00:54# Some are quite big

0:00:54 > 0:00:56# 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

0:01:03 > 0:01:07# 64, 64, 64 Zoo Lane. #

0:01:10 > 0:01:13- Bedtime, Lucy.- OK, Mum.

0:01:26 > 0:01:28TAP, TAP, TAP!

0:01:31 > 0:01:33Weee!

0:01:35 > 0:01:37Hi, everyone.

0:01:37 > 0:01:39ALL: Hello, Lucy.

0:01:39 > 0:01:42Where are Giggles and Tickles?

0:01:42 > 0:01:45- CHUCKLING - Ta-da!

0:01:45 > 0:01:49We're here, up in the tree. Our favourite place.

0:01:49 > 0:01:50SHE LAUGHS

0:01:50 > 0:01:54Nelson, where's your favourite place?

0:01:54 > 0:01:56Um...oh, let me see...

0:01:56 > 0:02:01The water hole, because you can spray yourself with water to keep cool.

0:02:01 > 0:02:04I love the Zanban River best.

0:02:04 > 0:02:07And my favourite spot is on top of the Blue Mountain,

0:02:07 > 0:02:11where you get a lovely view of the Savannah.

0:02:11 > 0:02:14How about you, Boris?

0:02:14 > 0:02:18Ah, give me a grassy bank with sweet-smelling flowers.

0:02:18 > 0:02:20Good day, Lucy.

0:02:21 > 0:02:26Carrie! We were just talking about everyone's favourite places.

0:02:26 > 0:02:30That makes me think of Joey the kangaroo.

0:02:30 > 0:02:34Would you like to hear a story about Joey's favourite place?

0:02:34 > 0:02:37Yes, please!

0:02:37 > 0:02:41Is it down by the billabong or at the Great Red Rock?

0:02:41 > 0:02:42No.

0:02:42 > 0:02:46Joey's favourite place was by the Jimjameree Tree.

0:02:49 > 0:02:51Boing, boing, boing!

0:02:51 > 0:02:54Ah! Oomph. Ha-ha!

0:02:54 > 0:02:58'It wasn't just Joey who liked the tree. So did his friend, Jimmy.

0:02:58 > 0:03:01'And Phoebe the koala.'

0:03:01 > 0:03:03# Dum-de-dum... #

0:03:12 > 0:03:16'The Jimjameree Tree was great for all sorts of games.'

0:03:16 > 0:03:18THEY CHEER

0:03:31 > 0:03:34THEY LAUGH

0:03:34 > 0:03:39'And it was also the perfect place to relax on a hot summer's day.'

0:03:41 > 0:03:45It sure it hot today. There's not a cloud in the sky.

0:03:46 > 0:03:51Actually, Joey, there is. That looks like a rain cloud over there.

0:03:53 > 0:03:57Don't be silly, Phoebe. It's not even the rainy season.

0:03:59 > 0:04:02I've cooled down - let's play another game.

0:04:02 > 0:04:03- Hide and seek?- Yeah.

0:04:03 > 0:04:06- Phoebe's the seeker.- Oh.

0:04:07 > 0:04:11One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.

0:04:11 > 0:04:14HE GRUMBLES

0:04:14 > 0:04:16HE SNIFFS

0:04:16 > 0:04:18Oh!

0:04:18 > 0:04:21WIND WHISTLES

0:04:23 > 0:04:26Ahem...wom-wom...

0:04:31 > 0:04:35There are big rains coming.

0:04:35 > 0:04:36Coming soon.

0:04:44 > 0:04:47Hi, Mr Two-Trees, want to play

0:04:47 > 0:04:49- hide and seek?- No, Joey.

0:04:49 > 0:04:51There is a big rain coming.

0:04:51 > 0:04:53We all need to find shelter.

0:04:54 > 0:04:58It's OK, Mr Two-Trees - that cloud's a long way off.

0:04:58 > 0:05:00And it's not the rainy season.

0:05:00 > 0:05:03It will be a very big storm.

0:05:03 > 0:05:05You must go home, now!

0:05:05 > 0:05:08- Oh!- Ah, it's not fair.

0:05:08 > 0:05:11No way is it going to rain!

0:05:13 > 0:05:17'But Wally Two-Trees knew a big storm was coming.'

0:05:24 > 0:05:25THUNDER CLAPS

0:05:29 > 0:05:35- Wally was right. - I've never seen such a big storm.

0:05:35 > 0:05:38THUNDER CLAPS

0:05:38 > 0:05:40Ah! Our tree!

0:05:40 > 0:05:42Hit by the lightning!

0:05:42 > 0:05:45Oh, that's our tree, Mum.

0:05:45 > 0:05:48- That's where we play. - Don't worry, son.

0:05:48 > 0:05:53- That old tree has been struck by lightning many times before.- Really?

0:05:53 > 0:05:58Yeah, and it always managed to survive. It's a tough old tree.

0:06:02 > 0:06:06'Next day, the storm had passed.'

0:06:06 > 0:06:10- No worries, we'll make it better. - Ahem...wom-wom...

0:06:10 > 0:06:14The great old tree has been badly hit by lightning.

0:06:14 > 0:06:17This time, it may not come back to life.

0:06:17 > 0:06:19Don't be sad, though.

0:06:19 > 0:06:21Oh!

0:06:21 > 0:06:24'Joey didn't give up easily.'

0:06:24 > 0:06:26No! We'll save our tree.

0:06:26 > 0:06:29- We have to!- Hooray!- Yeah!

0:06:29 > 0:06:32'Joey and his friends got to work.'

0:06:40 > 0:06:43Let's sing it a get-better song.

0:06:43 > 0:06:46ALL: # Jimjameree Tree, Jimjameree Tree

0:06:46 > 0:06:49# You'll get well soon, take it from me. #

0:06:53 > 0:06:54It's getting hot.

0:06:54 > 0:06:56The tree doesn't have any leaves

0:06:56 > 0:06:58to protect it from the sun.

0:06:58 > 0:07:01I know! Let's make a sunshade for it.

0:07:11 > 0:07:13Well done, guys.

0:07:13 > 0:07:16I still can't see any new shoots growing.

0:07:16 > 0:07:18Maybe tomorrow?

0:07:18 > 0:07:19Oh!

0:07:19 > 0:07:23Mr Two-Trees was right. This time, the old tree has gone.

0:07:23 > 0:07:26No. We can't just give up.

0:07:31 > 0:07:34- Mr Two-Trees, we need your help.- Mmm?

0:07:34 > 0:07:38We're trying to make the tree better but nothing seems to work.

0:07:38 > 0:07:42I did try to tell you, Joey.

0:07:42 > 0:07:45Perhaps there is a way.

0:07:57 > 0:08:01HE CHANTS

0:08:04 > 0:08:07- Will it work?- It has to work!

0:08:07 > 0:08:11HE CONTINUES CHANTING

0:08:11 > 0:08:13There will be a tree once more.

0:08:24 > 0:08:26ALL: Hooray!

0:08:30 > 0:08:32Nothing happened.

0:08:34 > 0:08:36It looks just the same.

0:08:36 > 0:08:41I guess we'll just have to look for somewhere new to play tomorrow.

0:08:41 > 0:08:44Come on, Joey. What are you waiting for?

0:08:44 > 0:08:48I might just stick around for a little while longer.

0:08:48 > 0:08:53'Joey wasn't ready to give up on the Jimjameree Tree just yet.'

0:08:53 > 0:08:57Mr Two-Trees did a special dance for you.

0:08:57 > 0:09:01Everything will work out OK. You'll see.

0:09:02 > 0:09:06'It was quiet and peaceful, and Joey soon fell asleep.'

0:09:15 > 0:09:18- Joey!- Wake up, mate!- Huh?

0:09:18 > 0:09:21He-he-he! We're down here.

0:09:21 > 0:09:24Ah! Whoa...

0:09:24 > 0:09:28- Ha-ha-ha!- Ha-ha-ha!

0:09:28 > 0:09:31- What happened?- It's a new tree.

0:09:31 > 0:09:35Look, there's lots more - a whole forest of Jimjameree Trees!

0:09:35 > 0:09:38Yippee!

0:09:40 > 0:09:43- This is just bonza! Yay!- Wahey!

0:09:43 > 0:09:46Ahem...wom-wom...

0:09:47 > 0:09:50Oh, thank you for helping us, Mr Two-Trees.

0:09:50 > 0:09:54One day, some of these new shoots will grow as big

0:09:54 > 0:09:59as that great old tree you loved so much.

0:09:59 > 0:10:04- Who's for a game of hide and seek? - Me!- Me!- Ho-ho-ho!

0:10:05 > 0:10:11One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight...

0:10:13 > 0:10:15Thank you for my story, Carrie.

0:10:15 > 0:10:18I'm glad Joey will have a new tree to play in.

0:10:18 > 0:10:20No worries.
