0:01:28 > 0:01:33- Is this where you want us to put the tent up, Mr Bentley?- No, Bob.

0:01:33 > 0:01:36I'm trying to get a signal to speak to Mrs Bentley,

0:01:36 > 0:01:40- find out if the new visitors are here.- Looks exciting!

0:01:40 > 0:01:45It IS exciting, Spud! New people are arriving in Sunflower Valley.

0:01:45 > 0:01:49We'll find somewhere to pitch it, Mr Bentley. You find your signal.

0:01:49 > 0:01:52Barbara! Barbara, can you hear me?

0:01:52 > 0:01:56- New visitors, eh?- Yes, Spud, and there's a lot to do.

0:01:56 > 0:01:59Oh, bother! Can you hold my phone, please?

0:01:59 > 0:02:03- Oh, dear.- Mr Bentley, I could be your assistant.

0:02:03 > 0:02:05I don't know about that.

0:02:05 > 0:02:09Mr Bentley's assistant. Yes, yes, yessity yes!

0:02:09 > 0:02:13Extra instructions for the tent! Bob will need those.

0:02:13 > 0:02:17It's quite a contraption. Exactly the right size

0:02:17 > 0:02:21for the number of people and ever so comfortable. Must dash.

0:02:21 > 0:02:25PHONE RINGS Oh! Mr Bentley's phone. A-hem...

0:02:25 > 0:02:29- Hello.- Bernard? Is that you?

0:02:29 > 0:02:33- Er...- Bernard! I thought I should tell you

0:02:33 > 0:02:35- there'll be... - CRACKLING

0:02:35 > 0:02:38Sorry, it's a bit of a bad line.

0:02:38 > 0:02:41..extra...people.

0:02:41 > 0:02:44Extra people? Bring as many as you like.

0:02:44 > 0:02:47We'll fit them in. Over and out.

0:02:47 > 0:02:48Spud, Mr Bentley said

0:02:48 > 0:02:52the tent's just the right size for the number of people.

0:02:52 > 0:02:57I'll sort it out. That's what assistants are for, isn't it?

0:02:58 > 0:03:01Oh, good, you've found a tent site.

0:03:01 > 0:03:06- We need a trench for water pipes and electricity cables.- No prob, Bob.

0:03:08 > 0:03:13Here's the pump, and the solar-powered electricity generator.

0:03:13 > 0:03:17Ah, yes. Very practical, Bob. Water and power.

0:03:18 > 0:03:22What about our straw bales? We were taking them up to the fields.

0:03:22 > 0:03:27I've thought of something cleverer. Line them up, Sumsy.

0:03:27 > 0:03:31I can pack 'em, I can stack 'em!

0:03:31 > 0:03:34Spud, straw bales are meant to be bedding for sheep.

0:03:34 > 0:03:38I know a bit more about straw than you do, Travis.

0:03:38 > 0:03:43- After all, who's made of straw - me or you?- Um...

0:03:43 > 0:03:48They'll be comfy beds for the extra visitors who can't fit in the tent.

0:03:48 > 0:03:52But how many extra visitors will there be, Mr Bentley's assistant?

0:03:52 > 0:03:56- Um...- And how long are they staying?

0:03:56 > 0:03:58Oh, just a few nights, probably.

0:03:58 > 0:04:02What if it rains? They've only got a tree over them.

0:04:02 > 0:04:06Straw bales go soggy if they get wet. I know that.

0:04:06 > 0:04:08Hmm...

0:04:08 > 0:04:12SPUD: Out, out! Go on! Mr Bentley said so.

0:04:12 > 0:04:17- Where will WE sleep tonight?- You won't mind a few nights outside.

0:04:17 > 0:04:20The new visitors will be comfy in your shelter.

0:04:20 > 0:04:24I put two straw beds in there, four in there,

0:04:24 > 0:04:27three in there, two more in there,

0:04:27 > 0:04:29- and five in there. - How many is that?

0:04:29 > 0:04:32- 16.- I hope that's enough.

0:04:32 > 0:04:36- PHONE RINGS Hello.- 'Bernard?'- It's Mrs Bentley.

0:04:36 > 0:04:38Ask how many extra are coming.

0:04:38 > 0:04:42Um, Mrs Bentley, I wonder if you... CRACKLING

0:04:44 > 0:04:48- '..45. Bye.'- 45.

0:04:48 > 0:04:50BOTH: 45?!

0:04:50 > 0:04:53Hello? ..Oh, she's gone.

0:04:53 > 0:04:5645's more than 16, isn't it?

0:04:56 > 0:05:0229 more. We've got to find space for 29 straw beds!

0:05:03 > 0:05:05Hey, that's our shelter.

0:05:05 > 0:05:07It's only for a few nights.

0:05:07 > 0:05:1029 straw beds.

0:05:10 > 0:05:14We put one, two, three in there...

0:05:14 > 0:05:18- How many does that leave?- 26. - Nearly done!

0:05:19 > 0:05:23The solar generator takes heat from the sun, Lofty.

0:05:23 > 0:05:25And uses it to warm up the water.

0:05:27 > 0:05:30There we go - canvas beds.

0:05:30 > 0:05:32Ha-ha! Really comfy.

0:05:32 > 0:05:36Good. Our visitors are going to stay for a while.

0:05:36 > 0:05:39If they decide they want to live here forever,

0:05:39 > 0:05:42we'll have to think of something more permanent.

0:05:42 > 0:05:47You're right, Mr Bentley. Proper houses. Ah...

0:05:47 > 0:05:50Oh, bother! Where's my phone gone?

0:06:03 > 0:06:08Farmer Pickles won't mind a few people sleeping in his kitchen.

0:06:08 > 0:06:12- I think he will, Spud. - Five more straw bales.

0:06:12 > 0:06:16- And I know somewhere just right for them.- Where's that?- Your bedroom.

0:06:16 > 0:06:18MY bedroom?

0:06:18 > 0:06:21But...but my bedroom's... It's MINE!

0:06:21 > 0:06:25- We gave up our shelter, Spud. - But you're machines!

0:06:25 > 0:06:30- You've lived outdoors before.- And you used to live in the barn, Spud.

0:06:30 > 0:06:34Ohh, how could you be so cruel?

0:06:34 > 0:06:37FARMER PICKLES COUGHS

0:06:37 > 0:06:40Spud, what are these straw bales doing in my kitchen?

0:06:40 > 0:06:43I just found a straw bale in my caravan!

0:06:43 > 0:06:47- I can't get into my yard! - We can't sleep in our shelter!

0:06:47 > 0:06:52Don't worry, everyone. Mr Bentley's invited a few people to stay,

0:06:52 > 0:06:54but it's only for a few nights.

0:06:54 > 0:06:58Our new residents aren't just coming to visit.

0:06:58 > 0:07:03- They're coming to live.- Ohh, my beautiful scarecrow bedroom!

0:07:03 > 0:07:08- What about everyone else? - My caravan, Spud!- My yard!

0:07:08 > 0:07:11I don't know what all the fuss is about.

0:07:11 > 0:07:14All the new residents will fit in the tent.

0:07:14 > 0:07:18- Is that my phone, Spud?- Oh, er, yes. Mrs Bentley rang.

0:07:18 > 0:07:22You were busy and because I'm your assistant...

0:07:22 > 0:07:25I told her some extra people could come.

0:07:25 > 0:07:28Extra people? How many?

0:07:28 > 0:07:3045.

0:07:30 > 0:07:33Barbara! Barbara!

0:07:33 > 0:07:35Oh, I still can't get a signal!

0:07:35 > 0:07:40- She'll be on her way now.- The clever thing about this tent is...

0:07:40 > 0:07:45you can make it bigger. It'll be a squeeze but we'll fit 45 more in.

0:07:45 > 0:07:49- But we haven't got 45 more canvas beds.- Mr Bentley!

0:07:49 > 0:07:52I haven't been a very good assistant...

0:07:52 > 0:07:55I didn't say you could be my assistant.

0:07:55 > 0:07:59I was wondering if you'd like to use some of my straw beds.

0:08:00 > 0:08:03There's 45 of them exactly!

0:08:03 > 0:08:06And they're ever so comfy.

0:08:07 > 0:08:12In they go, Sumsy, by order of Mr Bentley's assistant.

0:08:12 > 0:08:14That's quite a tent, Bob.

0:08:14 > 0:08:18- Everyone will be very happy in there.- Hello, everyone.

0:08:18 > 0:08:23Ah, Barbara. My assistant has something to say to you.

0:08:23 > 0:08:29Mrs Bentley, I'm sorry I said it was all right to bring 45 extra people.

0:08:29 > 0:08:3345 extra people?! What are you talking about, Spud?

0:08:33 > 0:08:38I answered Mr Bentley's phone. It was a bit crackly but you...

0:08:38 > 0:08:41I said I'd be here extra quickly. < Ah!

0:08:41 > 0:08:46Extra quickly. I thought you said extra people.

0:08:46 > 0:08:52Silly me! But you did say 45. I heard you.

0:08:52 > 0:08:56Spud, I said I'd be here at 3.45 precisely.

0:08:56 > 0:09:00There's not 45 extra people coming after all!

0:09:00 > 0:09:05I've brought the same number I arranged with Mr Bentley - five.

0:09:05 > 0:09:07Sorry, everyone!

0:09:07 > 0:09:12Never mind. There WILL be 45 people coming to the valley one day.

0:09:12 > 0:09:15More than that maybe. We have to be ready

0:09:15 > 0:09:19to find them somewhere to live. About that idea, Mr Bentley...

0:09:19 > 0:09:24- Don't listen. It's something important.- That's why I'm listening.

0:09:24 > 0:09:30If it's important, they'll need Assistant Spud to help them!
