# They'll be friends forever Down on Big Barn Farm. #

0:00:320:00:35

It's early in the morning.

0:00:400:00:43

The whole of Big Barn Farm is sleeping.

0:00:430:00:46

The sun's rising above the hills,

0:00:460:00:48

so that can only mean one thing - it's time for Lester.

0:00:480:00:54

LESTER CROWS

0:00:560:00:59

# It's Lester! #

0:01:040:01:06

And here comes the wake-up call from Lester the cockerel.

0:01:060:01:11

GRUFFLY: Cock-a-doodle-doo!

0:01:110:01:13

Come on, Lester. You can do better than that.

0:01:130:01:16

It's time to get everyone up.

0:01:160:01:18

GRUFFLY: Cock-a-doo...

0:01:180:01:20

-It looks like Lester might have lost his voice.

-Ugh!

0:01:200:01:23

So who's going to wake the farm up?

0:01:290:01:31

The farmer needs to get up so he can collect the Mrs Chickens' eggs.

0:01:330:01:37

-He should've been here by now.

-It's an outrage!

0:01:370:01:42

And the sheep are waiting to be moved to the far field.

0:01:420:01:46

Mrs Snuffles and her piglets need feeding.

0:01:460:01:49

Where's our food? We're extremely hungry.

0:01:490:01:53

Madame needs the farmer to milk her.

0:01:570:02:00

Moo-la-la!

0:02:000:02:02

Hurry up. Hurry up!

0:02:020:02:05

But one thing is quite clear after all this fuss...

0:02:050:02:08

Is that the time?

0:02:080:02:11

..nobody wants a morning like this when the farmer doesn't wake up.

0:02:110:02:15

GRUFFLY: Cock-a-doodle-doo!

0:02:190:02:22

So Lester's sore throat had better get better soon.

0:02:220:02:25

And luckily for Lester, Petal, Gobo, Dash and Digger

0:02:250:02:29

have some ideas about how to cure a sore throat.

0:02:290:02:33

We should get him to gargle like this...

0:02:330:02:36

GARGLES

0:02:360:02:38

LESTER GARGLES AND SPLUTTERS

0:02:390:02:42

HE COUGHS

0:02:420:02:44

I know what to do - you have to rub a dock leaf on his throat.

0:02:440:02:49

That's for when you get stung by a nettle.

0:02:490:02:53

Nice try, Digger.

0:02:530:02:55

When I'm not feeling very well,

0:02:550:02:57

Mum wraps me up in blankets and tells me bedtime stories.

0:02:570:03:01

And rubs you with a dock leaf?

0:03:010:03:04

ALL: No!

0:03:040:03:06

So they decide to try Petal's idea.

0:03:060:03:09

And the beautiful princess and the handsome prince

0:03:090:03:13

lived happily ever after.

0:03:130:03:16

-Is your sore throat better now?

-CROAKILY: No.

0:03:180:03:24

-ALL SIGH

-Don't give up yet.

0:03:240:03:27

Dash has an idea to help Lester's sore throat.

0:03:270:03:31

A lemon?

0:03:310:03:33

Dash is sure he's heard of this before.

0:03:340:03:37

It's called a hop lemon treatment.

0:03:370:03:40

Hop over the lemon and that will make your sore throat better.

0:03:410:03:45

Hmm, are you sure about this, Dash?

0:03:450:03:49

Mrs Chickens are wondering what on earth is going on.

0:03:490:03:53

Oh, no, no, no. Lester should be drinking hot lemon -

0:03:530:03:57

not hopping over a lemon! Ha-ha.

0:03:570:04:00

Well, nothing else has worked, so Digger thinks

0:04:020:04:06

he may as well give Lester's poorly throat a rub with a dock leaf.

0:04:060:04:09

-MUFFLED:

-Try it, Lester.

0:04:090:04:12

-CROAKY:

-No, no thanks.

0:04:120:04:14

-I can hardly hear Lester at all now.

-Oh, dear.

0:04:140:04:18

So that means no-one will hear his wake-up call tomorrow.

0:04:180:04:23

LESTER CROAKS

0:04:230:04:26

MUSIC CHIMES What's that noise?

0:04:260:04:29

Perhaps it's the tractor.

0:04:290:04:32

MUSIC CHIMES

0:04:320:04:35

Is it the tractor?

0:04:350:04:38

No, the tractor makes a chuggy noise.

0:04:410:04:44

MUSIC CHIMES IN DISTANCE

0:04:440:04:47

Maybe it's the postman beeping his horn.

0:04:470:04:50

What do you think?

0:04:500:04:52

No, it's not the postman's van.

0:04:520:04:55

Maybe it's Madam singing.

0:04:550:04:58

Oh, moo-la-la. I sound better zan zat. Have a listen.

0:04:580:05:02

MADAM SINGS OPERATICALLY

0:05:020:05:06

-Hmm, I'm not so sure, Madam.

-MADAM SINGS HIGH NOTES

0:05:060:05:13

-MUSIC CHIMES

-Is it the van that sells cold sweets

0:05:130:05:16

that children like?

0:05:160:05:18

Yes, that's what's making the noise.

0:05:180:05:21

I think it's called an I-Scream van.

0:05:210:05:26

Children always scream and shout when they see it.

0:05:260:05:30

And it's the loud speaker on the top

0:05:300:05:33

that's making the music sound really loud.

0:05:330:05:36

If we had a loud speaker thingy like that,

0:05:360:05:39

-we'd definitely make Lester sound louder.

-That might work, Petal

0:05:390:05:43

but you don't have any loud speakers, so...

0:05:430:05:47

it's back to the drawing board.

0:05:470:05:50

Lester decides that he can't let the farm sleep in again.

0:05:590:06:03

Someone will have to stand in for him and give the wake-up call.

0:06:030:06:08

LESTER SPLUTTERS

0:06:080:06:10

ALL: Me, me, me!

0:06:100:06:13

-I'll do it.

-Listen to me!

-Me, first.

0:06:130:06:16

Cock-a-doodle...ee-ore! Ee-ore!

0:06:160:06:20

-No!

-Check this out -

0:06:200:06:23

Cock-a-doodle...me-e-e-e-e-eh!

0:06:230:06:27

No!

0:06:270:06:29

Not bad, but listen to this -

0:06:290:06:32

cock-a-doodle...honk! Honk!

0:06:320:06:35

LESTER: No!

0:06:350:06:37

I'm the best. Cock-a-doodle...a-woo!

0:06:370:06:41

ALL: Cock-a-doodle-doo!

0:06:410:06:45

What a noise. Poor old Lester can't stand it any more.

0:06:450:06:49

Quiet! LESTER COUGHS

0:06:490:06:53

Well, that won't have made his sore throat better, will it?

0:06:530:06:56

But Lester has an idea.

0:06:560:06:59

A contest?

0:06:590:07:01

That's right, Petal. A contest to find out who has the best

0:07:010:07:05

early-morning wake-up call.

0:07:050:07:09

# Big Barn Farm! #

0:07:090:07:11

COUGHING

0:07:110:07:13

Petal, Gobo, Dash and Digger should be rehearsing

0:07:130:07:17

but unfortunately all their loud cock-a-doodle-doodling

0:07:170:07:22

has left them with sore throats.

0:07:220:07:24

-HE CROAKS:

-My throat's tired.

0:07:240:07:28

-HE CROAKS:

-Oh, so's mine!

0:07:280:07:31

They'll need to rest their voices.

0:07:310:07:34

They nearly sound as croaky as Lester.

0:07:340:07:37

But Digger has a brilliant idea.

0:07:370:07:39

Which doesn't happen that often.

0:07:390:07:43

HE PANTS

0:07:430:07:45

Digger knows they may have sore throats,

0:07:480:07:52

but they can use other things to make noises.

0:07:520:07:55

-BALL SQUEAKS

-Hmm, what's that?

0:07:550:07:58

HE PANTS

0:07:580:08:00

Petal, Gobo and Dash think Digger's idea is a good one

0:08:000:08:05

so now they all need to find something noisy for the contest.

0:08:050:08:09

Hmm. Mmm.

0:08:120:08:16

Hmm.

0:08:160:08:19

Hmm.

0:08:190:08:21

CLANG!

0:08:230:08:25

RADIO PLAYS Ah...!

0:08:250:08:30

# They'll be friends forever Down on Big Barn Farm. #

0:08:300:08:33

Who'll be chosen to give tomorrow morning's wake-up call?

0:08:330:08:37

The contest is about to start and the audience is waiting.

0:08:370:08:42

-The judges are Madame...

-Bonjour!

0:08:420:08:46

-..Mrs Snuffles...

-Hello!

0:08:460:08:50

..and, of course, Lester.

0:08:500:08:52

-HE CROAKS:

-Hurry up with it!

0:08:520:08:54

So who's going to be first to perform in the contest?

0:08:540:08:59

-Here's Digger!

-BALL SQUEAKS

0:08:590:09:02

SQUEAK! SQUEAK!

0:09:020:09:05

Oh, dear!

0:09:060:09:07

What a racket!

0:09:070:09:10

Painful to listen to.

0:09:100:09:12

Digger hasn't gone down too well with the audience.

0:09:120:09:15

I wonder what the judges made of it.

0:09:150:09:19

Terrible! It sounds like the time Mac the horse accidentally trod

0:09:190:09:23

-on a Mrs Chicken's foot.

-It does as well!

0:09:230:09:28

Do you remember that? I've still got the bruise!

0:09:280:09:31

Oh, dear. Well, let's hope Dash can do a bit better.

0:09:310:09:35

He's had a bit of help, fixing the bell to the wall,

0:09:350:09:39

but he got very bad stage fright. He's very, very nervous.

0:09:390:09:43

Um, good morning.

0:09:430:09:46

-Afternoon!

-Afternoon!

0:09:460:09:49

Oh, yes, well...

0:09:490:09:51

And Dash is so nervous, he just pulls the bell too hard.

0:09:510:09:55

CLANG! Oh, dear!

0:09:550:09:57

Quack! Quack!

0:09:570:09:59

Was that it?

0:09:590:10:01

Uh...thank you.

0:10:010:10:04

Baa! Baa!

0:10:040:10:07

Now it's Petal's turn.

0:10:070:10:09

She's bound to be a hit with the audience.

0:10:090:10:12

Ooh, this is the best one so far, I think.

0:10:130:10:17

-MUSIC PLAYS ON RADIO

-Oh, now, that's quite nice!

0:10:170:10:21

Catchy tune, too.

0:10:210:10:23

-She's so talented!

-MUSIC SLOWS DOWN

0:10:230:10:26

-Um...

-That is good but let us 'ear some more.

0:10:260:10:31

MUSIC STOPS Uh...

0:10:310:10:33

Oh, dear. Poor Petal doesn't realise

0:10:330:10:35

that the radio's batteries have run out.

0:10:350:10:38

So there's only one more of the farmyard bunch to go

0:10:380:10:43

and just look at that drum kit he's set up! Go, go, Gobo!

0:10:430:10:47

TAP! TING! CLANG!

0:10:470:10:52

But Gobo bashes his drum kit so hard that...

0:10:520:10:56

-Oops!

-Oops!

0:10:560:10:59

We want to be woken up, not frightened in our beds!

0:10:590:11:03

Gobo's drum kit was maybe a bit TOO noisy!

0:11:030:11:07

And, anyway, he can't use it again. He's completely demolished it!

0:11:070:11:11

So who will give the cock-a-doodle-do tomorrow?

0:11:110:11:16

Digger and his squeaky toys?

0:11:160:11:18

-Non!

-Dash and his bell?

0:11:180:11:21

-Useless!

-Petal and her radio?

0:11:210:11:25

Baby!

0:11:250:11:27

Without new batteries, that's a "no" as well.

0:11:270:11:31

-So it must be...

-It's me!

0:11:310:11:33

-Non, non, non!

-No, no, no!

0:11:330:11:36

No...!

0:11:360:11:39

The judges thank the four friends for trying their best

0:11:390:11:42

but none of them sound quite as good as a proper cock-a-doodle-do.

0:11:420:11:46

Lester just needs to get a bit more oomph into his voice

0:11:460:11:50

-and make it sound louder...

-HE CROAKS:

-Cock-a-doodle-do.

0:11:500:11:54

..so the farmer will wake up in the morning.

0:11:540:11:56

If only we had one of those loudspeaker thingies

0:11:560:12:00

-like on the ice-cream van.

-Hmm...

0:12:000:12:03

The next day arrives and...

0:12:110:12:13

COCK-A-DOODLE-DO!

0:12:130:12:15

Wow! It sounds like Lester's sore throat is better!

0:12:150:12:19

Or has he got a little bit of help?

0:12:190:12:22

COCK-A-DOODLE-DO!

0:12:220:12:25

Clever lot! The farmyard bunch have made Lester his own loudspeaker

0:12:250:12:29

-so that everyone can hear him.

-COCK-A-DOODLE-DO!

0:12:290:12:33

He's very pleased with it.

0:12:330:12:35

And, as a thank-you, Lester lets Petal, Gobo, Dash and Digger

0:12:350:12:40

-join him for that morning's final...

-ALL: COCK-A-DOODLE-DO!

0:12:400:12:45

That's all for now. See you again soon, down on Big Barn Farm.
