0:00:03 > 0:00:05Do not over-feed the fish. Do not over-feed the fish.
0:00:05 > 0:00:10- Do not over-feed the fish... - Cool! Who's your friend, Colin?
0:00:10 > 0:00:14This is Ms Hucklebuck's pet fish Steven.
0:00:14 > 0:00:16Apparently, he's very rare.
0:00:16 > 0:00:19Aw! Hi, Steven. Hi!
0:00:19 > 0:00:21FISH SQUEAKS
0:00:21 > 0:00:24Good morning, everyone. How are we all today?
0:00:24 > 0:00:25CRASH
0:00:28 > 0:00:29Oh! Crumpets!
0:00:29 > 0:00:32This is Brain Freeze!
0:00:32 > 0:00:33With...
0:00:43 > 0:00:45Stand by!
0:00:45 > 0:00:46Come on, everybody!
0:00:50 > 0:00:51- BOTH:- It's time for...
0:00:54 > 0:00:55Today, we're asking...
0:00:55 > 0:00:57Do goldfish have bad memories?
0:00:57 > 0:01:01Goldfish are a type of carp, and were one of the first fish
0:01:01 > 0:01:04to be domesticated, about 1,000 years ago.
0:01:04 > 0:01:06We mostly think of them as being bright orange,
0:01:06 > 0:01:11but goldfish can also be yellow, red, brown and black.
0:01:11 > 0:01:13Yeah, but what's so special about goldfish, anyway?
0:01:13 > 0:01:16Goldfish don't have stomachs like ours,
0:01:16 > 0:01:18so they should only be fed in small amounts.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21They also produce a lot of waste,
0:01:21 > 0:01:24so it's very important that their water be kept clean.
0:01:24 > 0:01:29If properly looked after, goldfish can live for up to 40 years.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32In fact, the oldest goldfish on record lived to be 49!
0:01:34 > 0:01:38Whoa, 49! That's even older than me!
0:01:38 > 0:01:40More fishy science after the break.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43And we're clear.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46- Hello, hello! - Hello, Ms Hucklebuck.
0:01:46 > 0:01:50Just checking in on how my little Stevie-weevie is doing.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53Yes, yes, very well. We're taking good care of him.
0:01:53 > 0:01:55Oh, I do wish I could have brought him with me.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58He's just not very keen on aeroplanes.
0:02:00 > 0:02:04Ah, look at you, you poor little thing. You're starving!
0:02:04 > 0:02:05She must never feed you!
0:02:06 > 0:02:08Here, have another hot dog.
0:02:08 > 0:02:13You will promise to give him a big hug from me, won't you, Jonathan?
0:02:13 > 0:02:16Absolutely, Ms Hucklebuck. My name's Colin, actually.
0:02:16 > 0:02:21Oh, McCork! What are you doing?! He's not supposed to eat that!
0:02:21 > 0:02:24What do you mean? Look at him, he's fierce happy.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28Oh! BELL RINGS
0:02:28 > 0:02:29Positions!
0:02:34 > 0:02:37So, Dr Knowles, do goldfish have bad memories, or what?
0:02:37 > 0:02:41There is a common myth that goldfish only have a three-second memory,
0:02:41 > 0:02:43but this is completely false.
0:02:43 > 0:02:46Goldfish are, in fact, much smarter than we think.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49Studies have shown that they actually have a memory span
0:02:49 > 0:02:50of at least three months.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52GOLDFISH COUGHS
0:02:52 > 0:02:56Three months? Sure, I haven't a clue what happened three seconds ago!
0:02:56 > 0:02:58What's more, goldfish can distinguish between
0:02:58 > 0:03:01different colours, shapes and sounds.
0:03:01 > 0:03:02Ha! That's brilliant.
0:03:02 > 0:03:05Sure, I haven't a clue what happened three seconds ago!
0:03:05 > 0:03:06SHE SIGHS
0:03:06 > 0:03:07See you next time.
0:03:10 > 0:03:14FISH BREATHES DEEPLY
0:03:14 > 0:03:16Oh, Colin, no!
0:03:16 > 0:03:21I'm done for, Dr Knowles. The boss will never stand for this!
0:03:21 > 0:03:23FISH GRUNTS
0:03:23 > 0:03:25Erm...I think he's going to...
0:03:25 > 0:03:27Going to what?
0:03:34 > 0:03:35Oh...
0:03:35 > 0:03:37Wow.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39Just...wow.
0:03:39 > 0:03:41Wow, indeed.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44Phwoar! What a pong!
0:03:44 > 0:03:47Sorry about that, Steven. Only fish food for you from now on.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50I really hope you've learned your lesson this time, Professor.
0:03:50 > 0:03:54Lesson? Sure, I haven't a clue what happened three seconds ago!
