It's a lovely spring day here on Big Barn Farm.

Bit the old scarecrow looks like he's seen better days.

He's not even scaring the crows away anymore.

And they're having a lovely breakfast of the farmer's new seeds.

And there's Digger and Petal, out for a walk.

# La-la-la-la

# La-la-la-la

# La, la-la-la-la

# La-la-la... #

Nice singing, Petal.

Yes, I am rather a good singer, aren't I?

You've certainly got something! Ha-ha!

We're not exactly sure what that something is...

Look, the farmer's waving.

Is he waving at us?

He's saying "Hello". He must have heard me singing.

We should be polite and say "Hello" back.

-Woof! Woof!

-Oink! Oink!

-Oink! Oink!

-Woof! Woof!

-He's still waving.

-Perhaps he's saying "Hello" a lot?

We haven't got all day to say hello. We've got running about to do.

And off they run to see Old Pop.

The farmer was waving at us this morning.

I think he was waving at my singing.

Crows.

-Eh?

-I know she sings like a bird, but...

Crows. He was waving at crows.

They're eating all his seeds. They're a menace.

And the old scarecrow isn't really up to the job anymore.

Poor old scarecrow.

He's not very frightening, is he?

I think he is. A bit.

Because you're a scaredy-cat... I mean dog.

Oh, ha-ha!

# Big Barn Farm. #

-La-la-la...

-Quack! Quack!

-..la-la...

-la-la-la...

-Quack! Quack!

Petal's singing again. I'm not sure what the duck girls will think.

What's that noise?

Which noise?

That squeaking and oinking noise.

That's my singing. I'm a very good singer.

Here that, girls? Petal thinks she's singing!

A singing piglet?! Let's join in.

-You OK, Petal?

-Ignore them.

They're just jealous of my voice.

PETAL AND THE DUCKS SING TOGETHER

I can't hear myself think.

I'm going back to my kennel for a bit of peace and quiet.

Hello, Petal. We heard you coming.

We could hear the noise from miles away.

Oh, no, that wasn't a noise.

-Wasn't it?

-No,

What you heard was me singing.

-Really?

-Yes.

I have a beautiful voice. Listen.

# La-la-la, la-la-la-la... #

Run! Oh...

-Wait!

-I know who'll listen, Petal. Your mum, Mrs Snuffles.

Oink! Oink! Oink!

# Mrs Snuffles It's Mrs Snuffles. #

Oink! Oink!

Oink! Oink!

Yes, dear, you do have a beautiful voice.

-Your oink is the most beautiful sound in the world to me.

-Thanks!

There's a mother's love for you.

I know, Do you think I should put on a concert?

I don't know, dear. You'd probably have to practise a bit more first.

Practise? Yes that's it. Practise.

Practise makes perfect, Petal.

Baa! Baa!

La-aa-aa-aah...

That's so very ba-aa-d.

# La-aa-aa-aah... #

Careful, Petal, you'll scare the horses with that noise.

Snort! Ha-ha-ha!

# La-aa-aa...# Oh, sorry!

Put a sock in it, love.

You'll wake me chicks!

Eh! What, don't do that.

Now look what you've done.

Sorry, Mrs Chickens, I have to practise for my concert.

I'll give her a concert in a minute.

Eee-ee-eeh...

Can't even sing! Duck girls were right, she's rubbish.

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

It's a new day on the farm. Petal's getting ready for her concert.

# Ah-aa-ah, ah-aa-ah

# Ah-aa-aa... #

I hope you boys are going to help out at the concert.

Er...how can we help?

I just want you to be there. Now, I need to go and get ready. Bye!

OK, Petal, you can rely on us.

-How are we going to help her?

-She's not a very good singer, is she?

To be honest, she's terrible.

Oh, that's a bit harsh.

But true.

Honesty is sometimes the best policy.

I know how we can help her.

-Lock her in a stable?

-Yes...

No, we can be her backing singers.

Can we?

Now I'm really confused.

If we sing along as well, it might just save Petal's bacon.

# Hmmm-mmm, hum-hum-hum... #

How do I look, Mum?

Beautiful, Petal.

Now, you boys, are you setting up the stage?

Yes, Mrs Snuffles.

Is there water standing nearby in case she gets thirsty?

Yes, Mrs Snuffles.

Is there a plate of potato peelings in case I get hungry between songs?

It's in my contract.

Yes, Mrs Snuffles...I mean, Petal.

You boys make sure everyone's coming while I curl Petal's tail.

Yes, Mrs Snuffles.

Let's go!

Weeeeee!

Weeeee!

They're bossy, those pigs.

Are you coming to the concert, Ducky?

Try and stop me! Me and the girls will all be there. We like a laugh.

It's not meant to be funny.

Oh, it will be!

Oh, no. It's going to be a disaster.

We'll be a laughing stock when we join in.

We might show ourselves up,

but we're doing it to save Petal's feelings.

Oh, I suppose that's what friends are for.

# Big Barn Farm! #

Now, all is ready for the concert. The sage is set.

Yum...

Yum-yum...

Don't eat the stage, Gobo

They'll be nothing for Petal to stand on.

It's all right for you. All this hay is temptation for me.

You probably have bird food for lunch.

You can eat it AFTER the concert.

-Can I have some too?

-Yes,

but we'd better get ready now.

Hmmm...

Everyone is gathering for Petal's concert.

Everyone's waiting for the star to arrive.

They look a bit nervous.

I'm nervous.

Petal should be here any minute now.

Here she comes.

Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome to the stage...

Petal!

Hello, Big Barn Farm! My name is Petal.

And this first song is called, Squeak, Piggy Squeak.

# I'm a piggy little girl Who's on the farm

# Every day of the week Oink! Oink!

# And when I get back to my cosy sty

# Squeak, Piggy Squeak Oink! Oink! #

Come on, everyone, let's all sing!

ALL: # She's a piggy little girl On the farm

# Every day of the week Oink! Oink!

# And when she get back To her cosy sty

# Squeak, Piggy Squeak Oink! Oink! #

Petal's song is turning out to be a great big farmyard hit

All the animals are joining in and loving every minute.

# Squeak, Piggy Squeak Oink! Oink! #

There's so much noise the farmer comes out to see what's going on.

# ..Oink! And when I get back to my... #

But at least it's frightened off the crows!

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

Ah-aa-aa...

Squeak, Piggy Squeak! I think it went really well, don't you, Mum?

It was a triumph, Petal.

I think it went very well too.

Yes, especially because the farmer gave us lots of extra food

for scaring the crows away.

I think Petal should have a concert every day!

I wouldn't go that far, Dash!

At least everybody's happy at the end of another harmonious day

-on Big Barn Farm.

-# La-la-la-la!

See you next time!
