0:00:07 > 0:00:09Hello, my name's Nicky.

0:00:10 > 0:00:12Are you sitting comfortably?

0:00:12 > 0:00:14Fantastic!

0:00:15 > 0:00:18Because it's time for another bedtime story.

0:00:18 > 0:00:24This one is about two penguins who love to play together.

0:00:24 > 0:00:27Well...most of the time.

0:00:27 > 0:00:32It's called Ping And Pong Are Best Friends...

0:00:32 > 0:00:34Mostly.

0:00:34 > 0:00:36And it is by Tim Hopgood.

0:00:38 > 0:00:42Anything Ping can do, Pong can do better.

0:00:42 > 0:00:45Anything?

0:00:45 > 0:00:47Yes, anything.

0:00:47 > 0:00:50Ping likes ice-skating.

0:00:51 > 0:00:53Pong does too.

0:00:53 > 0:00:56Ping likes painting.

0:00:58 > 0:01:00Pong does too.

0:01:00 > 0:01:02Ping likes fishing.

0:01:04 > 0:01:06Pong does too.

0:01:06 > 0:01:09Now, do you see what I mean?

0:01:09 > 0:01:11Ping is learning to squeak French.

0:01:13 > 0:01:17Pong can already squeak in nine different languages.

0:01:17 > 0:01:21PONG SQUEAKS DIFFERENT LANGUAGES

0:01:24 > 0:01:27Ping decided enough was enough.

0:01:27 > 0:01:31He was NEVER going to be the best at anything.

0:01:31 > 0:01:35So, Ping sat down...

0:01:35 > 0:01:37and did nothing.

0:01:38 > 0:01:40"What are you doing?" asked Pong.

0:01:42 > 0:01:44"Nothing," replied Ping.

0:01:45 > 0:01:47"Oh," said Pong,

0:01:47 > 0:01:50"I've never tried doing that before.

0:01:50 > 0:01:53"What do you have to do?"

0:01:54 > 0:01:56"Nothing."

0:01:56 > 0:01:58"Oh, I see," said Pong.

0:02:00 > 0:02:04And Pong went off to practise doing nothing.

0:02:05 > 0:02:08Pong tried as hard as he could...

0:02:08 > 0:02:09but he just couldn't do it.

0:02:09 > 0:02:13Doing nothing was IMPOSSIBLE.

0:02:13 > 0:02:17"How does Ping do it?" he wondered.

0:02:18 > 0:02:22Pong decided he didn't like doing nothing.

0:02:22 > 0:02:26But doing other things without Ping wasn't much fun.

0:02:26 > 0:02:30So, he wrote Ping a letter.

0:02:30 > 0:02:35"Dear Ping, if you can spare the time,

0:02:35 > 0:02:38"I wondered if you would like to come for tea?

0:02:38 > 0:02:41"I miss you. Pong.

0:02:41 > 0:02:43"Kiss."

0:02:43 > 0:02:46Ping didn't open the letter straightaway,

0:02:46 > 0:02:47he was to busy...

0:02:47 > 0:02:49- doing nothing. - PING SIGHS

0:02:49 > 0:02:53Finally, Ping read the letter.

0:02:53 > 0:02:57He realised he missed his friend, too.

0:02:58 > 0:03:02The next day, Ping made some biscuits,

0:03:02 > 0:03:05and then, he went to visit Pong.

0:03:05 > 0:03:08Even though they were a bit burnt,

0:03:08 > 0:03:13Pong said they were the nicest biscuits he'd ever tasted.

0:03:13 > 0:03:15Pong had also done some baking.

0:03:19 > 0:03:22And at last, Ping realised he was

0:03:22 > 0:03:25the BEST at something after all.

0:03:27 > 0:03:34Well, that story was called Ping And Pong Are Best Friends...Mostly.

0:03:34 > 0:03:36I hope you enjoyed it.

0:03:38 > 0:03:42I'm glad that Ping and Pong realised what very good friends they are.

0:03:42 > 0:03:46Now, why don't you choose one of your very best toys

0:03:46 > 0:03:50to cuddle up with, and get tucked up in bed.

0:03:50 > 0:03:54I'll be here again soon for another bedtime story.
