0:00:02 > 0:00:04# Every day when you're walkin' down the street
0:00:04 > 0:00:07# Everybody that you meet
0:00:07 > 0:00:08# Has an original point of view

0:00:12 > 0:00:17# What a wonderful kind of day If you can learn to work and play
0:00:17 > 0:00:20# And get along with each other
0:00:20 > 0:00:23# You gotta listen to your heart Listen to the beat
0:00:23 > 0:00:26# Listen to the rhythm The rhythm of the street
0:00:26 > 0:00:28# Open up your eyes! Open up your ears!
0:00:28 > 0:00:32# Get together and make things better by working together
0:00:32 > 0:00:36# It's a simple message And it comes from the heart
0:00:36 > 0:00:41# Oh, believe in yourself For that's the place to start
0:00:41 > 0:00:46- # And I say, hey!- Hey! - What a wonderful kind of day
0:00:46 > 0:00:51- # If you can learn to work and play And get along with each other.- Hey!
0:00:51 > 0:00:56# What a wonderful kind of day, hey! What a wonderful kind of day, HEY! #

0:01:00 > 0:01:02- HEY!- Whoa-oa!
0:01:02 > 0:01:03CRASHING
0:01:07 > 0:01:10There are lots of interesting ways you can communicate with people.
0:01:10 > 0:01:13Tin cans and string, drums.
0:01:13 > 0:01:15One time, Buster and I tried semaphore.
0:01:17 > 0:01:20Watch out...
0:01:20 > 0:01:22for...the...
0:01:22 > 0:01:25skunjilingfung?
0:01:25 > 0:01:28Only there were too many black flies.
0:01:28 > 0:01:29What's a skunjilingfung?
0:01:29 > 0:01:30SQUEAKING
0:01:32 > 0:01:34Ah, skunk.
0:01:34 > 0:01:35Argh!
0:01:38 > 0:01:42But I think my favourite way to communicate is by letter.
0:01:42 > 0:01:46E-mails are great, but with a letter you can draw pictures on it
0:01:46 > 0:01:51and stick things to it. Then it gets carried by hand to the other person.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53It's almost like getting a present.
0:01:58 > 0:02:00Cool.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03So, that's why I think letters are the best.
0:02:05 > 0:02:09Nah, I want to do it my way. Come on.
0:02:09 > 0:02:12HE SIGHS I had a feeling it wouldn't work.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28How do you spell soccer?
0:02:28 > 0:02:31S-O-C-C-E-R.
0:02:31 > 0:02:33Thanks!
0:02:34 > 0:02:39- Where's S?- What are you writing? - E-mail to my grandparents.
0:02:39 > 0:02:42See, last week my whole family came over to our house
0:02:42 > 0:02:45and I got to tell everyone about the big soccer game.
0:02:45 > 0:02:47- Then I go... - HE GRUNTS
0:02:47 > 0:02:49And he goes, "Argh!"
0:02:49 > 0:02:52And it's a...goaaaaal!
0:02:52 > 0:02:55APPLAUSE
0:02:55 > 0:02:57I feel like I'm right there.
0:02:58 > 0:03:02Only my grandparents weren't there because they live too far away.
0:03:04 > 0:03:08My mum said I should just e-mail them, but it's not working.
0:03:08 > 0:03:12Whenever I write it, it's like, "Then I go...eh."
0:03:12 > 0:03:15And he goes, "Uh."
0:03:15 > 0:03:17And it's, like, "Eh."
0:03:17 > 0:03:21- It's all kind of... - ALL:- Eh.
0:03:21 > 0:03:22Yeah.
0:03:22 > 0:03:23Eh.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29I want my grandparents to really feel like they were there.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31How can I do that with just words?
0:03:31 > 0:03:35- Why don't you do a video postcard instead?- A video what?
0:03:35 > 0:03:37A video postcard.
0:03:37 > 0:03:40I sent them all the time when I was travelling with my dad.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42Back up closer to the canal.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47Keep going. Keep going.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52Oh, sorry, Dad.
0:03:54 > 0:03:59A video postcard, that's a great idea. I'm glad I thought of it.
0:04:01 > 0:04:04Wait a minute! The soccer game was last week.
0:04:04 > 0:04:08- How do I do a video of something that happened last week?- Simple.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11Do what I do. A re-enactment.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13A re-en what-what?
0:04:14 > 0:04:18Whenever I want to preserve important moments in my life,
0:04:18 > 0:04:19I do like on TV.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21I get actors to re-enact it.
0:04:23 > 0:04:25You guys, this is important.
0:04:25 > 0:04:29What are we going to do about this outbreak of head lice?
0:04:29 > 0:04:30I don't know.
0:04:32 > 0:04:34Me neither.
0:04:34 > 0:04:35SHE SIGHS
0:04:35 > 0:04:40As usual, it's up to me. Don't worry, I've got it under control.
0:04:41 > 0:04:45- When did I say, "I don't know"? - That's what I need.
0:04:45 > 0:04:49The drama, the excitement, I feel like I was right there.
0:04:49 > 0:04:53See you three tomorrow on the field, 8am sharp.
0:04:55 > 0:04:59I never said, "I don't know." And you gave me head lice.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01He's even more real than me.
0:05:02 > 0:05:05Mum, can I borrow the video camera?
0:05:05 > 0:05:10OK, but this time remember, it's not a hammer.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12Right. Not a hammer. Thanks.
0:05:14 > 0:05:16I thought a lot about this.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19I want to give my grandparents the feeling of what it was
0:05:19 > 0:05:22really like to be there. So, here are your parts.
0:05:24 > 0:05:25Get ready for the first scene.
0:05:29 > 0:05:32They're too good, Arthur.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37You're right. We'll never win.
0:05:37 > 0:05:41OK, now Arthur starts bawling like a baby.
0:05:41 > 0:05:43What?! I'm not bawling.
0:05:43 > 0:05:46- It didn't happen like that.- I'll cry.
0:05:46 > 0:05:49OK, Buster, you're Arthur. Start over.
0:05:49 > 0:05:51Huh?!
0:05:51 > 0:05:55OK, now you see me. Look amazed. Look amazed!
0:05:55 > 0:05:59- It's...- Can it be?- It is.
0:05:59 > 0:06:00It's Binky!
0:06:01 > 0:06:03We're saved.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10Move in slow motion.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19HE WHISPERS: This is not fun.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21Look amazed, look amazed!
0:06:24 > 0:06:29- Can we leave now? I'm hungry. - There's only one more shot.
0:06:29 > 0:06:33This is where you carry me off the field like a hero.
0:06:33 > 0:06:35I'm tired.
0:06:35 > 0:06:38But this is for my grandparents.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40It's dinner time. I'm going home.
0:06:40 > 0:06:42Come on, everyone.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47You're the only one who stood by me, George.
0:06:47 > 0:06:51- Just for that, you get to help me on the next part.- Cool.
0:06:52 > 0:06:56All we need is a lake, a boat and a fish.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59- I don't have any of those things. - Don't worry.
0:06:59 > 0:07:04We can do it all with the magic of video postcard-ary.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08You mean that singing fish? Yeah, you can borrow it.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12My pool? Sure.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14As long as I get credit.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16And a piece of any cookies or fruitcake
0:07:16 > 0:07:18you get from your grandparents.

0:07:30 > 0:07:34Thank you for coming to see my first video postcard.
0:07:34 > 0:07:35I couldn't have done it without you.
0:07:35 > 0:07:39Well, probably I could. Whatever. Anyway, here goes.
0:07:41 > 0:07:46Hello, and welcome to a video postcard to my grandparents from me,
0:07:46 > 0:07:50Binky Barnes. Hi, Grandma, hi, Grandpa.
0:07:50 > 0:07:54Last week, as you remember, was the big soccer game.
0:07:54 > 0:07:58As our story starts, our team finds itself outnumbered.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02- They're too good.- You're right.
0:08:06 > 0:08:08We'll never win.
0:08:08 > 0:08:10It's no use, I tell you!
0:08:10 > 0:08:12We should give up now.
0:08:12 > 0:08:16We'll never win. Never, never!
0:08:16 > 0:08:17NEVER!
0:08:17 > 0:08:19HE SOBS

0:09:03 > 0:09:04Yes!
0:09:06 > 0:09:08And that's how I made the goal.
0:09:08 > 0:09:11After that, I went on a fishing trip,
0:09:11 > 0:09:13and you'll never guess what happened.
0:09:14 > 0:09:16Time to go on a fishing trip.
0:09:18 > 0:09:22Broom-broom-broom!
0:09:22 > 0:09:24HE MIMICS BRAKES SCREECHING
0:09:24 > 0:09:25We're at the lake now.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27HE TAKES DEEP BREATH
0:09:27 > 0:09:29Nice air.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31I hope I catch one.
0:09:33 > 0:09:36Something's tugging. I got one.
0:09:36 > 0:09:40Wa-aa-aa-h!
0:09:40 > 0:09:41It's got me.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44Mwah-ha-ha-ha!
0:09:44 > 0:09:46Oh, no. The fish is eating me.
0:09:46 > 0:09:48Help!
0:09:48 > 0:09:50Whoa, look at this.
0:09:50 > 0:09:54I'm inside the fish. Hey, a boot.
0:09:54 > 0:09:58But how do I get out? I've got it!
0:09:58 > 0:10:00- Coochy-coochy-coo. - HE LAUGHS
0:10:00 > 0:10:01Coochy-coochy-coo.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04Ho-ho-ho! That tickles.
0:10:04 > 0:10:05Stop it, Binky.
0:10:05 > 0:10:09Come on, fish, or I'll use both hands.
0:10:09 > 0:10:11I know when I'm licked.
0:10:11 > 0:10:12You can go now.
0:10:14 > 0:10:20- BINKY'S VOICE:- I'm free! OK, fish, we're even. I'll let you go.
0:10:20 > 0:10:24Bye, Binky. Thanks a lot. You're the best.
0:10:24 > 0:10:25Bye, fish.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30That's my postcard. Thanks.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35You let the fish go? That's so great.
0:10:35 > 0:10:40Actually, we ate him, but it sounded better that way. What did you think?
0:10:40 > 0:10:43- Good!- Really good.- Good!- Amazing.
0:10:43 > 0:10:47Sue Ellen, you didn't say it was amazing. Yet.
0:10:47 > 0:10:51- You didn't actually get swallowed by a fish, did you?- No, of course not.
0:10:51 > 0:10:55- So, you made that all up?- Yeah.
0:10:55 > 0:11:00- But I thought you wanted to tell your grandparents your news.- Yeah.
0:11:00 > 0:11:04Don't you think they'll want to hear what really happened to you?
0:11:04 > 0:11:08- I tried that but I couldn't make it exciting.- But now you can.
0:11:08 > 0:11:11- Huh?- Make your e-mail like that movie. It'll be great.
0:11:15 > 0:11:18Dear Grandma and Grandpa,
0:11:18 > 0:11:22I wanted to tell you all the things that happened to me lately.
0:11:22 > 0:11:26Like I saved the soccer game.
0:11:26 > 0:11:27While I was running,
0:11:27 > 0:11:30it felt like everything was moving in slow motion.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32When I made the goal, I couldn't believe it
0:11:32 > 0:11:36and wanted to yell, "Gooooal!"
0:11:36 > 0:11:39Catching the fish may not have been an action movie,
0:11:39 > 0:11:40but it felt like one.
0:11:40 > 0:11:43I thought that fish would pull me out of the boat.
0:11:43 > 0:11:44THEY LAUGH
0:11:44 > 0:11:46One more thing I did this week.
0:11:46 > 0:11:49I made an awesome movie with the help of my friends,
0:11:49 > 0:11:51which is coming by mail.
0:11:51 > 0:11:52Hope you like it.
0:11:52 > 0:11:55Love, your grandson, Binky Barnes.
