0:00:05 > 0:00:08Well, I am, Colin, but someone's too busy

0:00:08 > 0:00:09playing with their silly new invention.

0:00:09 > 0:00:13Excuse me, my state-of-the-art super-shrinker is not silly.

0:00:13 > 0:00:15It's genius!

0:00:15 > 0:00:17MCCORK LAUGHS

0:00:18 > 0:00:20Oh, hang on, I think it's jammed.

0:00:25 > 0:00:27BELL RINGS

0:00:27 > 0:00:28Positions, everybody!

0:00:28 > 0:00:32This is Brain Freeze!

0:00:32 > 0:00:34With...

0:00:42 > 0:00:44Stand by...

0:00:44 > 0:00:46Come on, everybody!

0:00:48 > 0:00:49Wahey!

0:00:49 > 0:00:51- BOTH:- It's showtime!

0:00:54 > 0:00:55Today, we're asking...

0:00:58 > 0:01:00What the...

0:01:00 > 0:01:03Millions of years ago, the earth was ruled by dinosaurs

0:01:03 > 0:01:07and to this day, they are still the largest land animals ever to exist.

0:01:07 > 0:01:09T-Rex, was he the biggest?

0:01:09 > 0:01:11Actually, no.

0:01:11 > 0:01:13The largest dinosaurs were herbivores,

0:01:13 > 0:01:16meaning that they only ate plants.

0:01:16 > 0:01:18These huge sauropods are thought to have measured

0:01:18 > 0:01:23up to 35 metres in length and weighed the same as 18 elephants!

0:01:23 > 0:01:27But to find out what animal is even bigger than the dinosaurs,

0:01:27 > 0:01:31- join us after this break... - Careful, Professor!

0:01:33 > 0:01:38McCork...McCork... Oh, there you are, McCork.

0:01:38 > 0:01:41Aargh! There's two giants on the loose! Help!

0:01:41 > 0:01:43Right, I've almost fixed this thing.

0:01:43 > 0:01:46If I could just reverse the magnification...

0:01:46 > 0:01:50Oh, Jonathan, look at the adorable little dolly!

0:01:50 > 0:01:53Ah, put me down. I'm not a doll!

0:01:53 > 0:01:56Your little arms and your little face! You're so cute...

0:01:56 > 0:02:00Oh, no! What are we going to do, Colin? The show's about to start!

0:02:00 > 0:02:03Don't you worry, Dr Knowles...

0:02:06 > 0:02:07Huh?!

0:02:07 > 0:02:10We're live in five...four...three...

0:02:16 > 0:02:20- So, tell us, Dr Knowles... - Ahem, camera two, Colin.

0:02:20 > 0:02:25So, tell us, Dr Knowles, what is the largest animal of all time?

0:02:25 > 0:02:29Measuring up to 30 metres and weighing up to 180 tonnes,

0:02:29 > 0:02:32the blue whale is the largest animal on earth.

0:02:32 > 0:02:35Everything about this animal is huge.

0:02:35 > 0:02:37Its heart is the size of a small car,

0:02:37 > 0:02:42and its tongue alone is so big, 50 people could stand on it!

0:02:44 > 0:02:47Gosh! Now, that's big!

0:02:47 > 0:02:49Blue whales are still on the endangered list,

0:02:49 > 0:02:52but their numbers are slowly recovering.

0:02:52 > 0:02:55And it's our job as scientists to help ensure a future

0:02:55 > 0:02:58for this gentle giant of the ocean.

0:02:58 > 0:02:59- Boo!- Aargh!

0:02:59 > 0:03:03What do you mean "scientists"? You're only the floor manager.

0:03:03 > 0:03:06Oh, McCork, get off my head! Even when you're tiny, you're trouble.

0:03:06 > 0:03:09- Get off me! - See you next time...I hope.

0:03:12 > 0:03:14Let me go! Let me go!

0:03:14 > 0:03:17Well, McCork, that's enough of your tiny mischief.

0:03:17 > 0:03:21Reverse the super-shrinker!

0:03:21 > 0:03:23DR KNOWLES COUGHS

0:03:23 > 0:03:27Oh, dear! I think I might have overdone the calculations.

0:03:27 > 0:03:32Jonathan, have you seen my dolly? I can't find her anywhere.

0:03:32 > 0:03:37How's it going, Ms Hucklebaby? Ha-ha-ha!

0:03:37 > 0:03:41Oh, look at the cute little dollies! Oh, they're so cutsie-wootsie!

0:03:41 > 0:03:44Put me down! Put me down!

0:03:44 > 0:03:49- Ha-ha-ha!- Oh, stop it! Stop it, McCork, that tickles!
