Hello. I'm Sally.

0:55:060:55:08

Do you like jelly as much as I do?

0:55:080:55:12

You do?

0:55:120:55:13

I just love how it wibbles and wobbles and tastes delicious.

0:55:130:55:19

Strawberry is my favourite.

0:55:190:55:21

Tonight's bedtime story is all about jelly.

0:55:210:55:24

The story is called The Jelly That Wouldn't Wobble,

0:55:240:55:27

and it's by Angela Mitchell and Sarah Horne.

0:55:270:55:31

Princess Lolly wriggled impatiently on her throne.

0:55:310:55:34

It was her 89th birthday party.

0:55:340:55:37

"Where's my special jelly?!" she asked.

0:55:370:55:43

"Here, your highness," replied the guard, as the cook

0:55:430:55:46

and his assistant proudly carried in her special jelly.

0:55:460:55:50

Everyone gasped with delight. It was glorious!

0:55:500:55:55

Princess Lolly squealed with excitement, prodded the jelly

0:55:550:55:59

and then looked puzzled. She prodded the jelly again.

0:55:590:56:04

"This jelly doesn't wobble!" exclaimed Princess Lolly in horror.

0:56:040:56:11

The cook prodded the jelly too. "Doesn't wobble?

0:56:110:56:16

"Doesn't wobble?" flustered the cook.

0:56:160:56:19

"Of course it wobbles, Your Highness, it's jelly!"

0:56:190:56:22

"I say this jelly DOESN'T WOBBLE!" screeched the princess hysterically.

0:56:220:56:29

She prodded the jelly again and again and again. It didn't wobble.

0:56:290:56:35

"I want my jelly to wobble! Make it wobble.

0:56:350:56:41

"Why won't my jelly woh-ho-ho-ho-ble?!"

0:56:410:56:46

she stomped, a royal tear rolling down her cheek.

0:56:460:56:51

Everyone looked at the jelly in wonder.

0:56:510:56:54

-IN FRENCH ACCENT:

-"I don't want to be eaten!" growled the jelly.

0:56:540:56:59

Princess Lolly slumped on her throne.

0:56:590:57:03

The cook stared in disbelief.

0:57:030:57:05

The guard stood to attention and the hungry guests sat back in silence.

0:57:050:57:10

"Not be EATEN?!" boomed the princess.

0:57:100:57:16

"MELT IT!"

0:57:160:57:19

"Your Highness, no!" begged the cook.

0:57:190:57:22

"Think of the mess, Your Highness," said the guard.

0:57:220:57:25

Princess Lolly pondered for a moment.

0:57:250:57:29

"1,001 chocolate sovereigns for anyone

0:57:290:57:34

"who can make this jelly wobble!" announced the princess.

0:57:340:57:40

There was a great stir.

0:57:400:57:43

"I'll prod it with my walking stick," said the oldest guest.

0:57:430:57:48

That didn't work.

0:57:480:57:50

"Drop the table!" shouted the twin guests.

0:57:500:57:53

That didn't work.

0:57:530:57:55

"Scare it!"

0:57:550:57:56

the royal window cleaner hollered, and pulled some horrible faces.

0:57:560:58:01

That didn't work.

0:58:010:58:02

The jelly still refused to wobble.

0:58:020:58:06

-IN FRENCH ACCENT:

-"I won't wobble!

0:58:060:58:08

"I won't wobble, and that's my final word!" screamed the jelly.

0:58:080:58:14

Princess Lolly turned the colour of a very ripe strawberry.

0:58:140:58:18

The cook turned white with worry.

0:58:180:58:20

"I know how to make it wobble," said the smallest guest.

0:58:200:58:24

"You do?" boomed the princess.

0:58:240:58:28

"You do?" questioned the cook.

0:58:280:58:31

"You do?" repeated the cook's assistant.

0:58:310:58:34

"Yes, Your Highness," said the smallest guest proudly.

0:58:340:58:38

"Make the jelly really, really, really cold.

0:58:380:58:44

"It will shiver and have to wobble!"

0:58:440:58:47

"Wonderful!" said the cook, excited.

0:58:470:58:52

"Go on, go on, I say!" Princess Lolly commanded.

0:58:520:58:56

The cook froze for a moment.

0:58:560:58:58

"Ice cream. Ice cream!" whispered the smallest guest to the cook.

0:58:580:59:02

"Of course!" gasped the cook.

0:59:020:59:06

There was a great scurry while a rather wobbly old ladder

0:59:060:59:09

and the royal ice cream scoop were fetched.

0:59:090:59:13

Tottering on top of the ladder, the cook placed three

0:59:130:59:16

scoops of tutti frutti ice cream on top of the jelly's crown.

0:59:160:59:21

Everyone held their breath

0:59:220:59:24

and watched as the jelly tried very, very hard not to shiver.

0:59:240:59:29

Suddenly, the jelly jerked as the ice cream began to melt

0:59:300:59:35

and trickle down its sides.

0:59:350:59:38

"I saw something move!" gasped the smallest guest.

0:59:390:59:42

"Oh, please wobble!" begged the cook.

0:59:420:59:46

"Brrrr!" The jelly suddenly shivered.

0:59:460:59:50

"Brrrrrrrrrr!" It shivered again, rocking this way and that,

0:59:500:59:56

quivering and quaking, trembling and shaking so violently that everyone

0:59:561:00:00

thought it would slip off the platter and splatter on the floor.

1:00:001:00:04

What a spectacle. The guests moved back in fear. The cook began to cry.

1:00:041:00:09

And Princess Lolly stared in wonder at this quivering, shivering sight,

1:00:091:00:13

as the defeated jelly wobbled and wibbled and wiggled

1:00:131:00:18

and wobbled just as a royal jelly should.

1:00:181:00:23

The hungry guests cheered, the cook sobbed with relief

1:00:231:00:28

and the guard stood at ease.

1:00:281:00:31

"Silence," cried Princess Lolly.

1:00:311:00:34

There was an instant hush. "Now we can eat jelly!" she proclaimed.

1:00:341:00:42

"A-phew!" sighed the cook, consoled.

1:00:421:00:45

And they did.

1:00:451:00:47

And by the way, the princess kept her promise

1:00:491:00:52

and rewarded the smallest guest with 1,001 chocolate sovereigns.

1:00:521:00:57

I hope you enjoyed that story,

1:00:571:00:59

which was called The Jelly That Wouldn't Wobble.

1:00:591:01:02

Maybe we'll have jelly-filled dreams tonight. I hope so!

1:01:021:01:06

Sleep tight, and I'll see you soon for another bedtime story.

1:01:061:01:10

Night-night.
