0:01:16 > 0:01:19Hi, I'm Andy and I work in the dinosaur gallery,

0:01:19 > 0:01:22here, in the National Museum.

0:01:22 > 0:01:26Now, there's lots going on today because Hatty, our dinosaur expert,

0:01:26 > 0:01:30is opening a brand-new exhibit all about big dinosaurs.

0:01:30 > 0:01:31Can't wait to see it.

0:01:35 > 0:01:37Hey, look at the size of that skull.

0:01:40 > 0:01:43Hatty?

0:01:45 > 0:01:47Hatty! Hatty!

0:01:47 > 0:01:50Watch out, here I come!

0:01:51 > 0:01:53Hatty, what are you doing up there?

0:01:53 > 0:01:58Well, I've spent weeks making this fake fern to feed the dinosaur.

0:01:58 > 0:02:01That should put some flesh on his bones.

0:02:01 > 0:02:05WINCH SQUEAKS

0:02:05 > 0:02:08There. What do you think?

0:02:08 > 0:02:09It looks amazing, Hatty.

0:02:09 > 0:02:13I still can't believe the size of that skull.

0:02:13 > 0:02:15That's because it's a diplodocus,

0:02:15 > 0:02:19once thought to be the largest dinosaur in the world.

0:02:19 > 0:02:21Must have eaten everything in its way.

0:02:21 > 0:02:26Actually, diplodocus only ate plants, like that big fern up there.

0:02:26 > 0:02:28I'd love to see that.

0:02:28 > 0:02:31Well, you'd have to go back 152 million years.

0:02:31 > 0:02:35I'm not sure you have enough time before the museum opens.

0:02:35 > 0:02:39reminds me, I'd better get going. still got lots to do.

0:02:39 > 0:02:42- Don't worry, Hatty, I'll sort this out.- Thanks, Andy.

0:02:47 > 0:02:49HE WHISTLES

0:03:11 > 0:03:15No! Hatty's fern. What am I going to do?

0:03:16 > 0:03:20I can just stick them back on. Yes, I'll stick them back on.

0:03:20 > 0:03:23CLOCK CHIMES

0:03:27 > 0:03:32Or even better, I can get myself a new one.

0:03:32 > 0:03:34Time to go on a dinosaur adventure.

0:03:34 > 0:03:38ADVENTURE MUSIC

0:03:51 > 0:03:54Right, waistcoat...

0:03:55 > 0:03:58..check. Gizmo...

0:03:59 > 0:04:01..check. Hat...

0:04:03 > 0:04:06..check. And last, but not least, Hatty's backpack.

0:04:25 > 0:04:28To the time of diplodocus!

0:04:37 > 0:04:38Yeah!

0:04:55 > 0:04:57What...

0:04:57 > 0:05:00DINOSAUR SQUAWKS

0:05:03 > 0:05:08I've travelled 152 million years back in time...

0:05:08 > 0:05:10to the time of diplodocus.

0:05:13 > 0:05:18Look! There are ferns everywhere. This is going to be easy.

0:05:23 > 0:05:26Hang on a minute. It's not going to be that easy.

0:05:26 > 0:05:29These aren't the ferns I'm looking for.

0:05:29 > 0:05:32To find the giant ferns, I need to get outside the forest.

0:05:32 > 0:05:35Which way? This way.

0:05:55 > 0:05:58DISTANT CLUCKING

0:06:00 > 0:06:04I haven't found my way out of the forest yet.

0:06:05 > 0:06:07I got a bit distracted.

0:06:09 > 0:06:12Baby diplodocus - a whole group of them,

0:06:12 > 0:06:15but why are they here and not the adult ones?

0:06:17 > 0:06:18Oh...

0:06:18 > 0:06:22They live in the forest they can hide in plants,

0:06:22 > 0:06:26in case hungry dinosaurs come and try and find them.

0:06:26 > 0:06:28Let's get a closer look.

0:06:34 > 0:06:39As you can see, they don't just hide in the plants, they eat them, too.

0:06:39 > 0:06:43They are stripping the leaves off the ferns and gobbling them down...

0:06:43 > 0:06:47without even chewing. Terrible table manners!

0:06:47 > 0:06:51But they need to eat lots and get as big as the adults.

0:06:55 > 0:06:58That might be one of the adults now. Come on!

0:06:58 > 0:07:01DINOSAURS BURP

0:07:07 > 0:07:10It's a pterosaur.

0:07:10 > 0:07:13This one's only tiny but it says here that some

0:07:13 > 0:07:18pterosaurs were the largest flying animals that ever lived.

0:07:18 > 0:07:20Where's he off to?

0:07:22 > 0:07:26But no pterosaur was ever the size of...

0:07:26 > 0:07:28this dinosaur.

0:07:28 > 0:07:30DINOSAUR GROWLS

0:07:32 > 0:07:37Ho, ho! Look at the size of this diplodocus. It's huge!

0:07:37 > 0:07:41It's only a teenager which means it'll get even bigger.

0:07:44 > 0:07:48Look! There are some more over there.

0:07:48 > 0:07:51And they're eating ferns, too.

0:07:51 > 0:07:54Are those are the ones I need? No.

0:07:54 > 0:07:58The ones I need are the giant ferns that the adults eat.

0:07:58 > 0:08:01I need to get out of this forest. Come on.

0:08:06 > 0:08:08Well, I'm out of the forest now

0:08:08 > 0:08:11but I still can't see any adults anywhere.

0:08:11 > 0:08:14What's that sound? Why is the ground shaking?

0:08:26 > 0:08:28HE LAUGHS

0:08:28 > 0:08:31Oh, yes! Look at the size of their necks...

0:08:31 > 0:08:34and their tails! They're massive!

0:08:34 > 0:08:38This is exactly what I've been looking for -

0:08:38 > 0:08:40a whole herd of adult diplodocus.

0:08:40 > 0:08:43IT ROARS

0:08:47 > 0:08:49Right, I'm going to follow them.

0:08:49 > 0:08:52Hopefully, they are off to eat giant ferns.

0:08:52 > 0:08:54Then I can grab some, too.

0:09:08 > 0:09:09IT GROWLS

0:09:16 > 0:09:19Did you see that?

0:09:19 > 0:09:23An adult diplodocus has pushed down the tree to get to the

0:09:23 > 0:09:25giant ferns on the other side.

0:09:27 > 0:09:29Come on.

0:09:31 > 0:09:34Oh, these are perfect!

0:09:34 > 0:09:38Just what I need to replace Hatty's fern in her display.

0:09:43 > 0:09:45ANDY GROANS

0:09:46 > 0:09:48Ho, ho, ho.

0:09:53 > 0:09:55There, all done.

0:09:55 > 0:09:56CLOCK CHIMES

0:09:56 > 0:10:00I've got to go. Just time to get back to the museum

0:10:00 > 0:10:02before it opens.

0:10:03 > 0:10:05HE YELPS

0:10:05 > 0:10:07Ooh!

0:10:07 > 0:10:10No, don't go.

0:10:10 > 0:10:12How am I going to get down?

0:10:12 > 0:10:18Um... Hatty's backpack. It's always full of useful things.

0:10:18 > 0:10:20Right.

0:10:20 > 0:10:23Well, it is a rope but it's attached to a rescue balloon.

0:10:23 > 0:10:27They're to help other people find you when you are lost.

0:10:27 > 0:10:29How's that going to help me now?

0:10:29 > 0:10:31Unless...

0:10:31 > 0:10:34I've got an idea. I hope this works.

0:10:36 > 0:10:40Right. Now, if I just pull this...

0:10:42 > 0:10:45It's working! Oh, yes.

0:10:45 > 0:10:47Here we go!

0:10:51 > 0:10:56It's incredible up here. Ho, ho, ho! What a view!

0:11:00 > 0:11:02OK, the clock...

0:11:03 > 0:11:05Where is it again?

0:11:06 > 0:11:09I think I'm going in the right direction.

0:11:11 > 0:11:13Oh, a flock of pterosaurs!

0:11:14 > 0:11:17And they're coming this way.

0:11:21 > 0:11:23Hang on...

0:11:25 > 0:11:28They are going to pop the balloon. Shoo, shoo!

0:11:29 > 0:11:32HE SHOUTS

0:11:32 > 0:11:34Whoa!

0:11:39 > 0:11:44Well, that's one way of doing it. Time to head back!

0:11:59 > 0:12:02CLOCK CHIMES

0:12:24 > 0:12:27CLOCK CHIMES

0:12:44 > 0:12:46Hurry along now.

0:12:50 > 0:12:54We don't want to turn into dinosaurs ourselves, do we?

0:12:57 > 0:12:59This is the diplodocus,

0:12:59 > 0:13:03a fascinating dinosaur that lived 152 million

0:13:03 > 0:13:07years ago and only ate plants, like this giant fern.

0:13:07 > 0:13:09And the odd backpack, too.

0:13:09 > 0:13:13For a while, it was thought to be the biggest dinosaur in the world.

0:13:13 > 0:13:15In fact, it was so big,

0:13:15 > 0:13:18it was able to knock down huge trees to get the ferns behind.

0:13:20 > 0:13:24- Thanks for tidying up, Andy. - Oh, any time, Hatty.

0:13:24 > 0:13:27The fern really does look good, doesn't it?

0:13:27 > 0:13:29And it's bigger than I remember.

0:13:29 > 0:13:32Sh! See you next time.

0:13:44 > 0:13:45# One, two, three, four.

0:13:45 > 0:13:48# Andy's dinosaur adventure

0:13:48 > 0:13:51# Dinosaur, dinosaur adventure. #
