0:01:15 > 0:01:17Evening!

0:01:21 > 0:01:22Hello, I'm Andy.

0:01:22 > 0:01:26I run the prehistoric gallery here at the National Museum.

0:01:26 > 0:01:29Today, my assistant Jen and I are working on the display

0:01:29 > 0:01:33about a fearsome feline predator called a sabre-toothed cat.

0:01:33 > 0:01:35Come on, I'll show you.

0:01:39 > 0:01:42- Hi, Jen.- Hi, Andy. - I've got the speaker you asked for.

0:01:42 > 0:01:47- Oh, great, if you could just set it up over there.- Right.

0:01:47 > 0:01:49- There we go.- I just need that sound file.

0:01:49 > 0:01:53- Oh, it's here on my gizmo. - Ah, great!

0:01:53 > 0:01:56- I just need to plug it in.- Mm-hm. - There we go.

0:01:56 > 0:01:57Oh...

0:01:59 > 0:02:01- Oh?- I'm all right, thanks.

0:02:01 > 0:02:04I don't get how you can make a sabre-toothed cat roar

0:02:04 > 0:02:08- from a recording that I took from Mrs Pickles' kitten.- It's easy.

0:02:08 > 0:02:12I use a computer programme to amplify and distort the sound.

0:02:12 > 0:02:14Listen to this. Mm, how do I...?

0:02:14 > 0:02:16Oh, you press this button.

0:02:16 > 0:02:18BEEP

0:02:20 > 0:02:22- I can't hear anything.- Hm.

0:02:24 > 0:02:26Try turning up the volume.

0:02:33 > 0:02:34ROAR!

0:02:34 > 0:02:36- Whoa!- Oh!

0:02:36 > 0:02:39- Now that's what I call a roar. - I know.

0:02:39 > 0:02:43This little device of yours is really clever.

0:02:43 > 0:02:45- What does this button do? - Oh, no, no...!

0:02:48 > 0:02:50Huh...

0:02:50 > 0:02:53- Doesn't do anything.- Erm...

0:02:53 > 0:02:55I'll take that.

0:02:55 > 0:02:57- Ugh, it's a bit sticky.- I'm sorry.

0:02:57 > 0:02:59- I think it was the muffin. - Don't worry.

0:02:59 > 0:03:02Mrs Pickles is going to love that recording.

0:03:02 > 0:03:04She'll be really impressed.

0:03:04 > 0:03:07I can't wait to show her the display tomorrow morning.

0:03:07 > 0:03:10Did you know that a sabre-toothed cat's teeth

0:03:10 > 0:03:12were about as long as my forearm?

0:03:12 > 0:03:15They could open their mouths twice as wide as a lion.

0:03:15 > 0:03:18They could've eaten quite a few of these!

0:03:18 > 0:03:22- Shall we play it before we go home?- Mm-hm!- Cover your ears.

0:03:22 > 0:03:24BEEPING

0:03:24 > 0:03:26Oh. That's not right.

0:03:26 > 0:03:29- Oh, no!- It's broken.

0:03:29 > 0:03:32- What are we going to do? - We need another recording.

0:03:32 > 0:03:35Where are we going to find a kitten at this hour?

0:03:35 > 0:03:38There's not enough time! CLOCK CHIMES

0:03:42 > 0:03:45Time.

0:03:45 > 0:03:46That's it!

0:03:46 > 0:03:50Jen, you stay here, I'll go get another sabre-toothed cat roar.

0:03:50 > 0:03:53Time to go on a prehistoric adventure!

0:03:53 > 0:03:55But, Andy, how will you...?

0:03:57 > 0:04:00Oh. Er...

0:04:00 > 0:04:02OK.

0:04:09 > 0:04:11Waistcoat, hat,

0:04:11 > 0:04:12backpack, gizmo!

0:04:16 > 0:04:18Check!

0:04:30 > 0:04:33To the time of sabre-toothed cats!

0:04:43 > 0:04:46Whoa!

0:04:47 > 0:04:49Wahoo!

0:04:52 > 0:04:55Wahoo!

0:05:05 > 0:05:07Yes! I've made it.

0:05:07 > 0:05:11I've travelled back in time two and a half million years

0:05:11 > 0:05:13to the time of sabre-toothed cats.

0:05:13 > 0:05:15And look!

0:05:15 > 0:05:18These guys are called Macrauchenia,

0:05:18 > 0:05:22a distant relative of modern-day horses.

0:05:22 > 0:05:25Oh, they're incredible!

0:05:25 > 0:05:27No, I can't get distracted.

0:05:27 > 0:05:29Right...

0:05:29 > 0:05:30sabre-toothed cats.

0:05:34 > 0:05:36Oh!

0:05:36 > 0:05:38There.

0:05:38 > 0:05:41Wow, they're huge!

0:05:41 > 0:05:44And those teeth!

0:05:44 > 0:05:47I'm going to have no trouble getting that roar.

0:05:47 > 0:05:50I'll be back to the museum in no time at all.

0:05:58 > 0:06:01ROAR!

0:06:01 > 0:06:02Whoa!

0:06:02 > 0:06:07That sounded like a clap of thunder, it almost rumbled my hat off.

0:06:07 > 0:06:09Perfect roar, though.

0:06:09 > 0:06:12Right, I'll get my gizmo and I'll record it.

0:06:12 > 0:06:15Gizmo, set to record.

0:06:15 > 0:06:17Huh?

0:06:17 > 0:06:20Gizmo, set to record.

0:06:20 > 0:06:22Oh, no! It's still broken.

0:06:22 > 0:06:25ROAR!

0:06:25 > 0:06:27Oh!

0:06:27 > 0:06:29Where's...?

0:06:29 > 0:06:33Oh, no! Those terror birds, they're after my gizmo.

0:06:33 > 0:06:35Oh!

0:06:39 > 0:06:42Oi, get off my gizmo!

0:06:42 > 0:06:44Go on, get out of it!

0:06:46 > 0:06:47Yes.

0:06:52 > 0:06:54Terror bird selfies!

0:06:55 > 0:06:57That's a good one.

0:06:57 > 0:07:01Ah, how did that get in there?

0:07:01 > 0:07:06Right, I need to get this working so I can record that roar.

0:07:06 > 0:07:07Come on, gizmo.

0:07:07 > 0:07:08BEEP

0:07:08 > 0:07:11That doesn't sound right.

0:07:11 > 0:07:13What?

0:07:13 > 0:07:15Oh!

0:07:15 > 0:07:18Now it's made me the size of an insect!

0:07:18 > 0:07:21I just want to record that roar.

0:07:27 > 0:07:29Oh!

0:07:29 > 0:07:31Whoa!

0:07:40 > 0:07:41I should be safe here.

0:07:43 > 0:07:46GROWLING

0:07:47 > 0:07:49Uh-oh!

0:07:49 > 0:07:51I think I spoke too soon.

0:07:56 > 0:07:58Er... Ooh!

0:08:02 > 0:08:04Hang on...

0:08:04 > 0:08:06Hang on, what's he up to?

0:08:07 > 0:08:10Oh! He's marking his territory.

0:08:10 > 0:08:12They do that by...

0:08:22 > 0:08:25Phew, that was close!

0:08:25 > 0:08:27Right, time to fix my gizmo.

0:08:27 > 0:08:30I need to get back to normal size.

0:08:30 > 0:08:32BEEPING

0:08:32 > 0:08:34Come on!

0:08:34 > 0:08:37One of these buttons must work.

0:08:41 > 0:08:44Oh, I'm back to normal size. Ha-ha!

0:08:44 > 0:08:47Right, now, where's that sabre-toothed cat?

0:08:47 > 0:08:49Here, kitty, kitty.

0:08:54 > 0:08:57The sabre-toothed cat is hunting.

0:08:57 > 0:09:01It looks like she's got her eye on those Macrauchenia over there.

0:09:01 > 0:09:06She's sneaking up on them, using the long grass as cover

0:09:06 > 0:09:10just like lions and tigers do when they stalk their prey.

0:09:12 > 0:09:15Right, this time I'm going to be ready.

0:09:15 > 0:09:17ROCK MUSIC PLAYS

0:09:17 > 0:09:18BEEPING No, stop it!

0:09:18 > 0:09:22COUNTRY MUSIC PLAYS Stop it! Stop making that noise!

0:09:22 > 0:09:24Oh, I've spooked the herd.

0:09:26 > 0:09:28And they're coming this way!

0:09:39 > 0:09:42Yep, I definitely spooked them!

0:09:44 > 0:09:48Hoo! Wow, they are fast!

0:09:48 > 0:09:51Right, I need to fix my gizmo before it gets me

0:09:51 > 0:09:54into any more trouble.

0:09:54 > 0:09:55BEEPING

0:09:55 > 0:09:57Hang on...

0:09:57 > 0:09:59What's this?

0:09:59 > 0:10:00A raisin.

0:10:02 > 0:10:05A raisin from the muffin that Jen was eating.

0:10:05 > 0:10:08This is what's been messing up my gizmo!

0:10:11 > 0:10:12Mmm...

0:10:12 > 0:10:14Tasty!

0:10:14 > 0:10:16Right - testing, one, two.

0:10:16 > 0:10:18'Testing, one, two.'

0:10:18 > 0:10:20Yes! It's working.

0:10:20 > 0:10:23Finally I can get my sabre-toothed roar.

0:10:32 > 0:10:34Right, in position.

0:10:34 > 0:10:36BEEPING

0:10:36 > 0:10:38Set to record.

0:10:40 > 0:10:43ROAR!

0:10:47 > 0:10:49Wow, what a roar!

0:10:49 > 0:10:52That'll sound perfect for the display.

0:10:52 > 0:10:54CLOCK CHIMES

0:10:54 > 0:10:57And just enough time to get back to the...

0:10:57 > 0:10:59GROWLING

0:10:59 > 0:11:01..clock.

0:11:01 > 0:11:03Oh!

0:11:09 > 0:11:10Oh, no!

0:11:10 > 0:11:13How am I going to get to the clock?

0:11:13 > 0:11:15Think!

0:11:15 > 0:11:18My backpack, it's always full of useful things.

0:11:20 > 0:11:23Knitting needles...

0:11:23 > 0:11:26sewing kit...

0:11:28 > 0:11:30..and a ball of wool.

0:11:30 > 0:11:33How's this going to help me?

0:11:35 > 0:11:37Hang on a minute.

0:11:37 > 0:11:40Cats love playing with balls of wool!

0:11:40 > 0:11:43I'm going to need a huge one for a sabre-toothed cat.

0:11:44 > 0:11:47I can use my gizmo.

0:11:47 > 0:11:48Ha-ha!

0:11:55 > 0:11:56Wow!

0:11:57 > 0:12:01Now, this is a ball for a sabre-toothed cat.

0:12:01 > 0:12:04Right, pussycat, come on!

0:12:04 > 0:12:06Get the ball.

0:12:11 > 0:12:13Yes! It's working.

0:12:20 > 0:12:22Time to head back!

0:12:42 > 0:12:44Are you sure you want to visit

0:12:44 > 0:12:47the sabre-toothed cat display now, Mrs Pickles?

0:12:47 > 0:12:51I could maybe just demonstrate the roar to you right here.

0:12:51 > 0:12:52Raaargh!

0:12:52 > 0:12:55That's very good but I can't wait to hear

0:12:55 > 0:12:57what you two have actually come up with.

0:13:08 > 0:13:09Almost there...

0:13:09 > 0:13:11Great!

0:13:15 > 0:13:17Andy?

0:13:17 > 0:13:19Where are you?

0:13:19 > 0:13:21Oh, I do hope he's not late.

0:13:21 > 0:13:23- Down here, Mrs Pickles.- Ah!

0:13:23 > 0:13:26Just making a few last-minute improvements.

0:13:27 > 0:13:33Well, it looks fantastic but what does it sound like?

0:13:33 > 0:13:36Well, it sounds like...this.

0:13:36 > 0:13:38ROAR!

0:13:38 > 0:13:41Well, I never! What a roar.

0:13:41 > 0:13:44It's enough to blow your socks off.

0:13:44 > 0:13:47And your hat, too. Shh!

0:13:47 > 0:13:49See you next time.
