0:00:02 > 0:00:05Welcome to the show we're calling Animals At Work,
0:00:05 > 0:00:07as that's what it's called.
0:00:07 > 0:00:11All over the planet millions of animals have jobs. Argh!
0:00:11 > 0:00:16This is the show that brings you the funniest, coolest, and most bizarre
0:00:16 > 0:00:19animals at work.
0:00:19 > 0:00:21Here's what we've got for you.
0:00:21 > 0:00:25It is time for the sheep who thinks she's a dog to get a job.
0:00:25 > 0:00:29Find out how Charlie can overcome some bad habits,
0:00:29 > 0:00:32to make it as a newshound.
0:00:32 > 0:00:36The Fanimals investigate which of these animals
0:00:36 > 0:00:40could have a job serving up pizza. But now it's...
0:00:41 > 0:00:42..showtime.
0:00:57 > 0:00:58What is wrong with you?
0:00:58 > 0:01:01Hi, everybody, welcome to the show.
0:01:01 > 0:01:03I've got a bit of a problem today.
0:01:03 > 0:01:06My dog, Harris, is not acting himself today.
0:01:08 > 0:01:09Moo!
0:01:10 > 0:01:11Buck, buck, buck!
0:01:12 > 0:01:13SCREECHES
0:01:14 > 0:01:15TRUMPETS
0:01:15 > 0:01:18While I sort out Harris's problem
0:01:18 > 0:01:21checkout this animal with its own personality problems.
0:01:23 > 0:01:27First off we are heading to Staffordshire in England.
0:01:34 > 0:01:38On a farm in the countryside lives a very unusual animal.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43Meet Princess Lambini.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46A five-month-old sheep who has a bit of a problem.
0:01:46 > 0:01:48She thinks she's a dog.
0:01:48 > 0:01:52And that her kennel is this house.
0:01:52 > 0:01:56We've never, ever had a lamb that thought it was a dog.
0:01:58 > 0:02:02This unusual situation may be because Lambini has grown up
0:02:02 > 0:02:06- with a group of border collies as best friends.- Dogs, come!
0:02:06 > 0:02:11Unfortunately, Lambini isn't house-trained.
0:02:11 > 0:02:15She watches telly during the day, she walks on the sofa steals food,
0:02:15 > 0:02:18she eats food out of the containers.
0:02:18 > 0:02:22And what's worse, Lambini even eats Alishea's homework.
0:02:24 > 0:02:28In the house she does a lot of naughty things.
0:02:28 > 0:02:32This may have been OK when Lambini was a little lamb,
0:02:32 > 0:02:35but now she's a full-grown sheep it's a problem.
0:02:35 > 0:02:39I mean, imagine having this on your couch?
0:02:39 > 0:02:42- Walk, lamb. - Alishea and Linda have had enough.
0:02:42 > 0:02:47- Time for Lambini to stand on her own four hooves.- Come on!
0:02:47 > 0:02:51- If she thinks she's a dog she'll have to work like one.- Come on!
0:02:51 > 0:02:56Which means getting off the sofa and doing a day's work.
0:02:56 > 0:03:00Just like the collies, who work hard on the farm as sheep herders.
0:03:00 > 0:03:04It may be an unusual one, but it's a tough challenge.
0:03:04 > 0:03:09Despite what she thinks, Lambini is a sheep, not a dog.
0:03:09 > 0:03:10If this comes off
0:03:10 > 0:03:15Lambini will be the only sheep herding sheep in the world.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17And that would be amazing.
0:03:17 > 0:03:21We can't blame Lambini for her doggyness.
0:03:21 > 0:03:27It's all down to her tough start in life on a cold, stormy night.
0:03:27 > 0:03:31She was born in a very bad rainstorm.
0:03:31 > 0:03:36The mother sheep had two, one was OK, but she was in a bad way.
0:03:36 > 0:03:41Fighting for her life, Lambini's mum rejected her leaving
0:03:41 > 0:03:44Lambini alone and vulnerable to the weather.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47She was wet, cold, and almost dead.
0:03:49 > 0:03:55Luck was on her side. In the nick of time Linda and Alishea found her.
0:03:55 > 0:04:00We wrapped her in a towel, and dried her with a hairdryer.
0:04:00 > 0:04:02She's stayed ever since.
0:04:02 > 0:04:06She was raised in the farmhouse, growing up thinking she's a dog.
0:04:06 > 0:04:12They accept her as part of the family. The relationship is weird,
0:04:12 > 0:04:15technically they should be herding her.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18She should be running away.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21Not this sheep. She's going nowhere.
0:04:21 > 0:04:27While the collies go about their herding work she just watches on.
0:04:27 > 0:04:32Clearly thinking she's a bit too good to get her hooves dirty.
0:04:32 > 0:04:36The time has come for her to pull her weight
0:04:36 > 0:04:39by getting a job and herding sheep,
0:04:39 > 0:04:43moving a flock of sheep from one place to another.
0:04:43 > 0:04:48It's trickier than it sounds. Sheep rarely go where you want..
0:04:48 > 0:04:52Border collies are amazing at this work because they're quick,
0:04:52 > 0:04:55clever, and have lots of stamina,
0:04:55 > 0:04:58are brilliant at responding to commands
0:04:58 > 0:05:00and get the job done.
0:05:00 > 0:05:04How's a sheep going to learn that collies' trade?
0:05:04 > 0:05:08She'll have to learn sheepdog commands, like...
0:05:08 > 0:05:10Wait, lamb.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12- And...- Away, lamb.
0:05:12 > 0:05:14- And even...- Come by, lamb.
0:05:14 > 0:05:20They don't sound that complicated but will she get to grips with them,
0:05:20 > 0:05:24given sheep are hardly known for their intelligence.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27Do you think you're up to this?
0:05:27 > 0:05:30Give 100% and get your hooves dirty for change?
0:05:30 > 0:05:35I hope so. Never before has a sheepdog been a sheep.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37So, the pressure's on.
0:05:37 > 0:05:41Can she prove she's more than a pampered princess?
0:05:41 > 0:05:45You never know, she's full of surprises.
0:05:45 > 0:05:50Later, it's the biggest day of her life as she goes to work.
0:05:54 > 0:05:58All these pesky animals get all the best jobs.
0:05:58 > 0:06:02I must invent something to give the jobs back to the humans.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05Ah, hello there. I am John Brainyman.
0:06:05 > 0:06:09The greatest inventor of animal gadgets.
0:06:09 > 0:06:14Today I am making these goggles that will help a human
0:06:14 > 0:06:17see in the dark as well as an owl.
0:06:17 > 0:06:22Here is the high-definition eye pieces, and some carrots,
0:06:22 > 0:06:26which, as everyone knows, helps you see in the dark.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28Time to test them out.
0:06:30 > 0:06:33I'm totally confident about this gadget.
0:06:36 > 0:06:41It won't go wrong, I won't end up walking into a wall or anything.
0:06:41 > 0:06:42Here we go.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47My gadget is actually working.
0:06:47 > 0:06:48Oh, I can see.
0:06:48 > 0:06:52Oh! Argh!
0:06:52 > 0:06:53It's not working.
0:06:53 > 0:06:58I need the Fanimals, the kids who love animals. Get it off me!
0:06:58 > 0:07:02And here they are. It is the Fanimals. Yes.
0:07:03 > 0:07:07Let's meet the Fanimals, our animal detectives.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10Kent.
0:07:10 > 0:07:11Zeyno.
0:07:11 > 0:07:13And Lakshmi.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16Today they are finding out...
0:07:16 > 0:07:20Which animal could be a pizza chef?
0:07:23 > 0:07:25The candidates are...
0:07:25 > 0:07:28Toby, the giant tortoise.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30Monty, the moon jellyfish.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32Wendy the water buffalo.
0:07:32 > 0:07:36To be a successful pizza chef you need to be productive,
0:07:36 > 0:07:41useful in the kitchen, and have great taste.
0:07:41 > 0:07:43Who do you think it might be?
0:07:43 > 0:07:48Looks like they need more facts before making their decision.
0:07:48 > 0:07:53Pizza chef candidate number one. Toby the giant tortoise.
0:07:54 > 0:07:59Toby has a domed-shaped shell to protect him from predators.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02Could it be a clever way of delivering pizza?
0:08:02 > 0:08:05It would be hard to balance,
0:08:05 > 0:08:08but it might stay on for a little while.
0:08:08 > 0:08:10How would you put it down?
0:08:10 > 0:08:11Er, well...
0:08:11 > 0:08:15Good point. Another problem may be getting there on time.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18They move at around 0.6 miles per hour.
0:08:18 > 0:08:24It would take Toby over 26 minutes to walk along a football pitch.
0:08:24 > 0:08:25They're really slow.
0:08:25 > 0:08:29To make a pizza you need to be in a hurry.
0:08:29 > 0:08:32Giant tortoises are big.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34They normally grow
0:08:34 > 0:08:37to about 123 centimetres in length,
0:08:37 > 0:08:41could this help them reach sauce on the top shelf?
0:08:41 > 0:08:47Pizza chef candidate number two. Monty the moon jellyfish.
0:08:47 > 0:08:51Monty's brainless. That's not an insult, it's a fact.
0:08:51 > 0:08:54Jellyfish have no brains.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00Nor hearts, bones, or even eyes.
0:09:00 > 0:09:05He won't be able to make a pizza with all the ingredients
0:09:05 > 0:09:07if he has no brain.
0:09:07 > 0:09:12They eat small fish which they catch by stinging with their tentacles.
0:09:12 > 0:09:16Would it be helpful if someone wanted a tuna pizza?
0:09:16 > 0:09:21It can't think I should catch tuna. I don't think you can think that.
0:09:21 > 0:09:26What if the tuna ran into it, and it got electrocuted?
0:09:26 > 0:09:31Moon jellyfish poo and eat through the same hole. Yuk!
0:09:31 > 0:09:33Is this helpful when cooking?
0:09:33 > 0:09:35That's gross.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38It's not hygienic at all.
0:09:38 > 0:09:41Yeah, I suppose that is pretty disgusting.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44Maybe not the best choice.
0:09:44 > 0:09:50So on to pizza chef candidate number three. Wendy the water buffalo.
0:09:50 > 0:09:55They stand out because of their long, crescent shaped horns,
0:09:55 > 0:09:58they look impressive.
0:09:58 > 0:10:04- I think they could tie a pizza on their horns.- It will just fall off.
0:10:04 > 0:10:07- Their horns might make a hole. - That's true.
0:10:07 > 0:10:11They weigh nearly 1,000 kilos, almost as heavy as a car.
0:10:11 > 0:10:15Could she be too big to work in a kitchen?
0:10:15 > 0:10:19They couldn't move cos they'll be too squished.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22If she couldn't deliver pizza
0:10:22 > 0:10:28she could possibly help by knocking up a cappuccino for customers
0:10:28 > 0:10:30using milk water buffalo produce.
0:10:30 > 0:10:35They need to watch their weight. At 8% buffalo milk is high in fact.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37It would be disgusting.
0:10:37 > 0:10:41Now they have all the facts it's time to decide.
0:10:41 > 0:10:46Which animal do you think would make the best pizza chef?
0:10:46 > 0:10:50We think it's the giant tortoise.
0:10:50 > 0:10:52Sorry, Fanimals, but you're wrong.
0:10:55 > 0:10:57It's not the giant tortoise.
0:10:57 > 0:10:59The best pizza chef is...
0:10:59 > 0:11:02the water buffalo.
0:11:02 > 0:11:05Buffalo can produce milk,
0:11:05 > 0:11:08which accounts for about
0:11:08 > 0:11:115% of the world's milk supply.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14It can be made into cheese such as mozzarella
0:11:14 > 0:11:19which Wendy can then use as a delicious pizza topping.
0:11:19 > 0:11:21Mamma mia!
0:11:21 > 0:11:25Cheese from buffalos goes all over the world
0:11:25 > 0:11:28and their pizza delivery spans the globe.
0:11:28 > 0:11:31Let's hear it for the buffalo.
0:11:31 > 0:11:34Animals At Work's official pizza chef.
0:11:38 > 0:11:42We're off to England now, home of the Queen.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52Recognise this guy?
0:11:52 > 0:11:56It's Charlie, my fellows reporter on the Animal News.
0:11:56 > 0:12:00Charlie's road work started nine months ago
0:12:00 > 0:12:04when we held auditions. It wasn't easy for Charlie.
0:12:04 > 0:12:09It's our chance to see how Charlie almost ruined it all,
0:12:09 > 0:12:11and didn't get the gig.
0:12:13 > 0:12:16Nine months ago we launched a talent search
0:12:16 > 0:12:20to find one dog to help me present the Animal News.
0:12:20 > 0:12:25Good evening, I'm Johnny Newsman, and this is Animal News.
0:12:25 > 0:12:27We need is a dog to sit still,
0:12:27 > 0:12:32open and close its mouth so it looks like it's talking,
0:12:32 > 0:12:35and maybe dress up in clothes.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38It was a big opportunity for our hopefuls.
0:12:38 > 0:12:41If they impressed our judges
0:12:41 > 0:12:46it would mean a career in the news, and they even get to work with me.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49What a lucky pup.
0:12:49 > 0:12:53Charlie was up against two other contenders.
0:12:53 > 0:12:54Blake the beagle...
0:12:57 > 0:13:00..who has a keen sense of smell.
0:13:00 > 0:13:0410,000 times more advanced than a human, he loves sniffing.
0:13:04 > 0:13:08A big advantage in sniffing out news stories.
0:13:08 > 0:13:11And Darcy, the clever clogs chihuahua.
0:13:11 > 0:13:16They have the largest brain for their size of any dog.
0:13:16 > 0:13:17He was a huge threat.
0:13:17 > 0:13:22His big brain might help him remember his lines in one go.
0:13:22 > 0:13:27And there was Charlie, who dressed up for the occasion.
0:13:27 > 0:13:31He hoped his British determination to root out the facts
0:13:31 > 0:13:34- might give him the lead.- Sit.
0:13:34 > 0:13:39Despite not being traditionally good looking
0:13:39 > 0:13:42Charlie had previous TV experience.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44He's done a TV commercial,
0:13:44 > 0:13:48so he's done a bit of modelling work before.
0:13:49 > 0:13:53So, we had three dogs, but only one job.
0:13:53 > 0:13:56The judges' decision was final.
0:13:56 > 0:14:01At this crucial moment he almost lost his chance to read the news.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04Charlie walked in OK, but almost ruined it.
0:14:04 > 0:14:06I think he wants a bite...
0:14:06 > 0:14:07Oh!
0:14:07 > 0:14:10That was really unprofessional.
0:14:10 > 0:14:15Newsreaders shouldn't kiss people they don't know.
0:14:15 > 0:14:21And all that double kissing, a bit too starry for a newshound.
0:14:21 > 0:14:22How about Blake?
0:14:22 > 0:14:24Blake started by ignoring the judges
0:14:24 > 0:14:28and giving the room a sniffing for a good news story.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31There's the bin. No, there's no news there.
0:14:31 > 0:14:33Blake then made his one mistake.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38Not fall asleep on the set would be good...
0:14:40 > 0:14:42He fell asleep.
0:14:42 > 0:14:45However, big brain D'Arcy was on his best behaviour.
0:14:45 > 0:14:47He looks like a measured performer,
0:14:47 > 0:14:50he looks like someone who could definitely take the pressure.
0:14:50 > 0:14:54Charlie knew he'd messed up, and had to redeem himself.
0:14:54 > 0:14:57He had to do extremely well in the next two tests.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59Sitting on a chair, and the most vital test -
0:14:59 > 0:15:02looking like you're talking.
0:15:02 > 0:15:05The two most important things a newsreader does.
0:15:05 > 0:15:07First, the chair challenge.
0:15:25 > 0:15:28Which they all eventually managed.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31And the final, deal-breaking test.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34Could the dogs move their mouths like they were talking?
0:15:34 > 0:15:37A trick achieved with a sticky, chewy treat.
0:15:37 > 0:15:39We have here some organic peanut butter.
0:15:39 > 0:15:42Darcy did pretty well. Blake, well, he slept through it.
0:15:45 > 0:15:46Very good.
0:15:46 > 0:15:52But when it came to Charlie, he was a natural. At this, Charlie excels.
0:15:57 > 0:16:01And then, the judges had to pick a winner.
0:16:01 > 0:16:04- You're going to have to let two of these down.- I know.
0:16:04 > 0:16:07That's the worst thing about this.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10I would say this is going to be one of the toughest decisions
0:16:10 > 0:16:11I've had to make.
0:16:16 > 0:16:20The winner of the competition to be newshound is...
0:16:22 > 0:16:24Charlie the bulldog.
0:16:24 > 0:16:27Despite his big mistake, Charlie got the job.
0:16:27 > 0:16:31Let's just hope he doesn't do it again when he arrives at work.
0:16:31 > 0:16:35Stay tuned to see if Charlie can control himself
0:16:35 > 0:16:39and avoid being unprofessional when he meets people.
0:16:41 > 0:16:45It's not just today that animals have had jobs.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47In fact, history reveals that in the past,
0:16:47 > 0:16:50they've had even more amazing jobs than today,
0:16:50 > 0:16:54and here are those History's Heroes!
0:16:54 > 0:16:58Hello, my fellow animal lovers, I am Professor John Bumbleman,
0:16:58 > 0:17:02and once again, welcome to History's Heroes.
0:17:02 > 0:17:08Today I'm here to tell you tales of naughty animals from days gone by.
0:17:09 > 0:17:12Our first naughty beast was Lance Corporal Billy,
0:17:12 > 0:17:15a goat who worked as a mascot for the Welsh regiment
0:17:15 > 0:17:19in the Mediterranean island, Cyprus.
0:17:19 > 0:17:20During a regimental parade,
0:17:20 > 0:17:23the normally well-mannered Billy started to act up,
0:17:23 > 0:17:27darting around and throwing soldiers off their stride.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29But it got worse.
0:17:29 > 0:17:32His naughtiest offence was head-butting the drummer!
0:17:32 > 0:17:37And for this, Billy was immediately demoted to a fusilier.
0:17:37 > 0:17:39Oh, the shame of it!
0:17:42 > 0:17:47Our next hairy naughty started off as an unemployed Great Dane,
0:17:47 > 0:17:49aptly called Nuisance.
0:17:49 > 0:17:52He used to hang around the Port of Simon's Town,
0:17:52 > 0:17:55lolling on top of planks refusing to move,
0:17:55 > 0:17:57so the sailors couldn't get past.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59When he did choose to move,
0:17:59 > 0:18:03he liked to take trips on the train, without paying the fare.
0:18:03 > 0:18:05The rail officials didn't like this at all
0:18:05 > 0:18:07and threatened to punish him horribly.
0:18:07 > 0:18:11But the sailors didn't like the thought of Nuisance being hurt,
0:18:11 > 0:18:14so quickly enlisted him into the Royal Navy.
0:18:14 > 0:18:16Having a job was a perfect solution,
0:18:16 > 0:18:20as the Royal Navy were entitled to a free pass on the train!
0:18:20 > 0:18:22And if you think mutts are mischievous,
0:18:22 > 0:18:25let me tell you, they've got nothing on cats!
0:18:25 > 0:18:28As my next tale proves.
0:18:28 > 0:18:32In 1894, a cat, believed to be called Tibbles,
0:18:32 > 0:18:34had a secret identity.
0:18:34 > 0:18:40By day, he worked as a companion for Mr Lyle, the lighthouse keeper.
0:18:40 > 0:18:43But by night, he was the scourge of Stephen's Island.
0:18:43 > 0:18:46Tibbles would hunt small brown birds
0:18:46 > 0:18:49and then deposit them on the lighthouse doorstep.
0:18:49 > 0:18:52Mr Lyle couldn't work out what type of bird they were,
0:18:52 > 0:18:55so he sent them to an expert for identification.
0:18:57 > 0:19:00The expert recognised the bird as a new species,
0:19:00 > 0:19:04naming it the Stephens Island wren.
0:19:04 > 0:19:08A team was then sent out to look for a living specimen,
0:19:08 > 0:19:12but by the time they go to the island, all the birds had gone.
0:19:12 > 0:19:15Not flown away - because Tibbles had eaten them all!
0:19:15 > 0:19:17That is one bad cat!
0:19:17 > 0:19:22And that is the end of today's naughty History's Heroes.
0:19:22 > 0:19:24Until next time, be good.
0:19:24 > 0:19:27Ooh! My fingers! Ooh!
0:19:31 > 0:19:34Welcome back to London, England.
0:19:38 > 0:19:41Nine months ago, Charlie, my animal news co-host,
0:19:41 > 0:19:45was put through his paces at the auditions for the newshound job.
0:19:45 > 0:19:50Charlie narrowly beat off two other contenders to become my newshound.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54But he is haunted by the massive mistake he made.
0:19:54 > 0:19:56Oh!
0:19:56 > 0:20:01Slobbery kisses are definitely not a good skill for a newshound.
0:20:02 > 0:20:07It's crucial he doesn't do anything like that on his first day at work.
0:20:07 > 0:20:08Don't mess up, Charlie!
0:20:08 > 0:20:12OK, we're just going to take you both into the studio.
0:20:12 > 0:20:15Come over here and see me, yes, you're my newshound!
0:20:15 > 0:20:18He says, "No, I want you to scratch my bum"!
0:20:18 > 0:20:21But at the crucial moment, Charlie's nerves get to him.
0:20:21 > 0:20:22Charlie just farted.
0:20:22 > 0:20:24Charlie!
0:20:24 > 0:20:28It's vital for Charlie's career that he redeems himself.
0:20:28 > 0:20:32This unprofessional behaviour cannot continue. He's got one last chance.
0:20:32 > 0:20:36If he doesn't do well, he might be out of a job.
0:20:36 > 0:20:38Control yourself, Charlie!
0:20:38 > 0:20:42First, the green screen. Talk about being thrown in the deep end!
0:20:42 > 0:20:46Green screen allows us to cut an outline of Charlie,
0:20:46 > 0:20:48and paste him on any background.
0:20:48 > 0:20:51Cunningly, we make it look like he could be anywhere in the world.
0:20:51 > 0:20:54Who said reporting was all glamour and foreign travel?
0:20:56 > 0:20:58Charlie, if we can get you into position?
0:20:58 > 0:21:01Charlie, it's your time to shine!
0:21:03 > 0:21:07But success on his first day is all reliant on Charlie sitting still.
0:21:07 > 0:21:09Come on, Charlie!
0:21:16 > 0:21:20- Good boy.- Thanks, Charlie!- Good boy! - Good boy!
0:21:20 > 0:21:21Phew!
0:21:21 > 0:21:25Now it's time for talking, helped by a sticky treat of peanut butter
0:21:25 > 0:21:28to make our Charlie look like he's chatting.
0:21:29 > 0:21:33Brilliant, Charlie! You've done it! It's all coming together for you.
0:21:33 > 0:21:36That's really good. Really good.
0:21:36 > 0:21:37Wasn't he awesome?
0:21:39 > 0:21:40Thank you.
0:21:40 > 0:21:43Hang on. What's that? Your own dressing room already?
0:21:43 > 0:21:46Hey, wait a minute! A star on the door?!
0:21:46 > 0:21:50I'm the star of this show, Charlie! Oi, Charlie!
0:21:50 > 0:21:51He's getting a back rub!
0:21:51 > 0:21:54I never get back rubs! No-one ever gives me back rubs!
0:21:54 > 0:21:56He's even got his own entourage!
0:21:57 > 0:22:00Can't believe it! He's having his hair brushed!
0:22:00 > 0:22:01I need to speak to my agent now.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04PHONE RINGS
0:22:04 > 0:22:07Hi, Big Gav, it's John, listen.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10- 'Oh, John, hi. Is Charlie with you?'- No.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12DIAL TONE
0:22:12 > 0:22:13Gav?! Big Gav, are you there?
0:22:13 > 0:22:18With a pro like Charlie on the scene,
0:22:18 > 0:22:21I'm going to have to watch my back. It's a dog-eat-dog world out there.
0:22:27 > 0:22:31And finally, it's back to Staffordshire in England.
0:22:34 > 0:22:36After being rejected at birth by her mother,
0:22:36 > 0:22:39Princess Lambini was rescued by Linda and Alicia.
0:22:39 > 0:22:43She was just the cutest thing on four legs, wasn't she?
0:22:43 > 0:22:45Pretty and white.
0:22:45 > 0:22:49However, being raised in a farmhouse alongside nine border collies
0:22:49 > 0:22:53has had an interesting effect on Lambini.
0:22:53 > 0:22:55She thinks she's a dog.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57But unlike her best friends,
0:22:57 > 0:23:00who spend their days working hard as sheep herders on the farm,
0:23:00 > 0:23:03Princess Lambini lives up to her name.
0:23:03 > 0:23:07She sees herself as a pampered pooch who's a bit too good for work.
0:23:09 > 0:23:12Now Linda and Alicia have decided things have to change.
0:23:12 > 0:23:16If Princess Lambini insists on thinking she's a dog,
0:23:16 > 0:23:18she needs to start earning her keep
0:23:18 > 0:23:20by mucking in and herding with the collies.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22There's a lot riding on this.
0:23:22 > 0:23:25Can Lambini become the world's first sheepdog sheep?
0:23:25 > 0:23:29Sheep herding involves moving a flock of sheep
0:23:29 > 0:23:31from one area to another.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34It's very skilful work as sheep aren't easy to move at all.
0:23:34 > 0:23:37And Lambini has a lot to live up to.
0:23:37 > 0:23:40The collies are perfect herders because they're quick,
0:23:40 > 0:23:43clever and have buckets of stamina.
0:23:43 > 0:23:48Most importantly, all sheepdogs have been trained up to recognise
0:23:48 > 0:23:50a specific set of commands.
0:23:50 > 0:23:52Stay. Walk-in, walk-in.
0:23:52 > 0:23:56It's these commands that enable the dogs and the shepherd
0:23:56 > 0:23:57to work together as a team.
0:23:57 > 0:24:00For Lambini to qualify as a sheepdog,
0:24:00 > 0:24:03she'll need to complete two stages.
0:24:03 > 0:24:06First of all, she'll need to learn the basic sheep herding commands.
0:24:06 > 0:24:07Walk-in.
0:24:07 > 0:24:12If she can master these, then it's onto the advanced commands.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15So first things first. Basic commands.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17Lambini needs to learn three of these. They are...
0:24:17 > 0:24:21- Come, Lam.- Come.- "Come" means to walk toward the shepherd.
0:24:23 > 0:24:27- Walk-in.- "Walk-in" means that the dog needs to walk towards the flock.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29- Wait.- And then there's wait.
0:24:29 > 0:24:31Wait.
0:24:31 > 0:24:34It's an instruction to...wait!
0:24:34 > 0:24:35These really are simple commands.
0:24:35 > 0:24:40It shouldn't be too hard, but can Lambini get her head around them?
0:24:41 > 0:24:44- First off, it's come.- OK.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47- Fingers crossed.- Come on.
0:24:47 > 0:24:50Come, Lam. Come on, Lam.
0:24:50 > 0:24:55Lambini seems to have mastered the first command.
0:24:55 > 0:24:57Next up, it's wait.
0:24:57 > 0:24:59Sounds simple enough.
0:24:59 > 0:25:04- Here we go. - Wait, Lam. Wait, Lam.
0:25:04 > 0:25:07And look at that! Lambini's nailed wait!
0:25:07 > 0:25:09Attagirl!
0:25:09 > 0:25:12And lastly, the all-important hat trick,
0:25:12 > 0:25:15it's the command to walk towards the flock. Walk-in.
0:25:15 > 0:25:19Walk-in. Lam, walk-in. Walk-in.
0:25:19 > 0:25:20Go on, Lambini!
0:25:23 > 0:25:25Wow, it looks like she can!
0:25:25 > 0:25:27She's done it!
0:25:27 > 0:25:31Lambini's mastered the basic commands. Come, wait and walk-in.
0:25:31 > 0:25:36Lambini can do them all. Maybe Lambini might be onto something.
0:25:36 > 0:25:39I think she's definitely got potential.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44So, Lambini's halfway there, but now for the tough part.
0:25:44 > 0:25:47She needs to master the advanced commands,
0:25:47 > 0:25:49which is no small task, I can tell you.
0:25:49 > 0:25:53Now Princess Lambini's going to learn the sheepdog commands,
0:25:53 > 0:25:57which are, to go to the right is away,
0:25:57 > 0:26:00to go to the left is come-by.
0:26:00 > 0:26:03- Steady. Lie down.- Left and right.
0:26:03 > 0:26:06If Princess Lambini can get this right,
0:26:06 > 0:26:09then she's qualified as a sheep herder.
0:26:09 > 0:26:11It's Lambini's big moment. Here we go.
0:26:11 > 0:26:14- Away. - Alicia gives the first command.
0:26:14 > 0:26:17She's telling Lambini to go to the right.
0:26:17 > 0:26:19How will Lambini respond?
0:26:20 > 0:26:22Oh, no, she's not responding at all!
0:26:22 > 0:26:25The command seems to have confused her.
0:26:27 > 0:26:31So Alicia's instructing Lambini to go to the left.
0:26:31 > 0:26:34She really needs to get this right... I mean left!
0:26:34 > 0:26:38- Come, Lam.- What's this?! Lambini's moving!
0:26:38 > 0:26:41She needs to go left. Go left, go left, go left, go left!
0:26:41 > 0:26:44No! She's going right!
0:26:44 > 0:26:45Oh!
0:26:46 > 0:26:49In fact, it looks like she's going home.
0:26:49 > 0:26:53Lambini clearly can't figure out the advanced commands. Oh, she's failed.
0:26:53 > 0:26:55This is a heartbreaking result.
0:26:55 > 0:26:57Or is it?
0:26:57 > 0:27:00It looks like someone's not bothered about getting a job, anyway.
0:27:00 > 0:27:04Could it be that the princess secretly doesn't want to work?
0:27:04 > 0:27:08I mean, why would Lambini want to give up such a cushy lifestyle,
0:27:08 > 0:27:10especially when she's so great at it?
0:27:10 > 0:27:14I think she's very good at being a pampered pooch.
0:27:14 > 0:27:18So the job didn't work for Lambini, but in this case, who cares?
0:27:18 > 0:27:23Not this princess, that's for sure. Baaaaah!
0:27:23 > 0:27:25I look like a black sheep!
0:27:25 > 0:27:27Oh, thanks for watching. See you next time!
0:27:27 > 0:27:30Hey, what're you doing? This is my show.
0:27:30 > 0:27:31I know it's Animals At Work,
0:27:31 > 0:27:34but it's John Barrowman's Animals At Work!
0:27:34 > 0:27:36What's going on here? I'm being upstaged by a dog!
0:27:36 > 0:27:38My own dog!
0:27:38 > 0:27:41Thanks for watching. See you next time!
