Charlie!

0:00:040:00:05

Lola?

0:00:090:00:10

Charlie!

0:00:120:00:13

I have this little sister, Lola...

0:00:340:00:36

Ding-dong! It's Christmas!

0:00:360:00:39

..she's small and very funny.

0:00:390:00:41

Christmas is nearly, really coming, isn't it?

0:00:410:00:45

Yeah! We can open the first window on our advent calendar.

0:00:450:00:49

# Oh! #

0:00:490:00:50

What exactly does an advent calendar do, Charlie?

0:00:500:00:54

It tells us how many days there are until Christmas.

0:00:540:00:58

-Ooh!

-One day I open a door, one day YOU open a door.

0:00:580:01:02

And then it's Christmas Day!

0:01:020:01:04

Ooh! So if we opened all the doors straightaway now,

0:01:040:01:08

it'll be Christmas Day right straightaway now?

0:01:080:01:11

Just open the first one, Lola!

0:01:130:01:15

Hmm. Number one...number one...

0:01:150:01:19

Ah! There it is!

0:01:190:01:22

-Oh! Is it Christmas Land?

-Probably the North Pole.

0:01:220:01:26

Where Father Christmas lives. Far away!

0:01:260:01:29

More further than even the moon?

0:01:290:01:31

Maybe even further!

0:01:310:01:33

Ooh!

0:01:340:01:35

-Ooh, that's really long.

-That looks lovely.

0:01:370:01:40

-We opened our advent calendar today.

-So did I!

0:01:400:01:44

-What was behind YOUR door?

-An elf! With ears that are all pointy!

0:01:440:01:49

-I'm an elf!

-Me too!

0:01:490:01:51

-What's an elf?

-Elves are Father Christmas' little helpers.

0:01:540:01:58

They open all the letters, and wrap the presents.

0:01:580:02:01

Mmm. I like opening letters.

0:02:010:02:04

-I had Father Christmas' sleigh.

-Father Christmas' actual sleigh?

0:02:040:02:10

That is going to land on our actual roof?

0:02:100:02:13

With all our presents?

0:02:130:02:15

ALL: Ooh!

0:02:150:02:18

I had a horse with twigs on his head!

0:02:180:02:22

ALL: Huh?

0:02:220:02:23

Oh! A horse with twigs on his head!

0:02:300:02:33

-That's a reindeer, Lola!

-A reindeer?

0:02:330:02:37

-It pulls Father Christmas' sleigh high up in the air!

-Hmm?

0:02:370:02:41

The reindeer doesn't look very well, Charlie.

0:02:410:02:44

He's just snoozing before his big journey with Father Christmas.

0:02:440:02:49

When's Christmas going to come?!

0:02:490:02:52

-When we've opened all the doors, Lola. You just have to wait.

-Huh.

0:02:520:02:59

Whee! And Sizzle's going down the hill really, really fast, and oh no!

0:02:590:03:04

He's going to crash into a tree! Then...

0:03:040:03:07

He doesn't! Whew!

0:03:070:03:09

Does Father Christmas bring the same presents for everybody, everywhere?

0:03:090:03:15

No, sometimes he brings the present you asked for in your letter,

0:03:150:03:19

sometimes he brings surprises.

0:03:190:03:22

And he always brings a tangerine.

0:03:220:03:24

Why does he always bring a tangerine?

0:03:240:03:28

I dunno. Cos they're really boring.

0:03:280:03:31

-Hmm. That is my card for Lotta.

-That's really nice, Lola.

0:03:310:03:37

-What is it?

-It's Away In A Manger with Baby Jesus.

0:03:370:03:42

Lotta really likes that song.

0:03:420:03:45

Especially the bit where the cattle are lowing.

0:03:450:03:48

-What is lowing, Charlie?

-It's like mooing.

0:03:480:03:51

# The cattle are mooing... #

0:03:510:03:55

Red for Lotta...

0:03:550:03:56

Would you like me to write Lotta's name for you?

0:03:560:04:00

No, I'll do it later,

0:04:000:04:02

after I have given Soren Lorensen his card.

0:04:020:04:06

Soren Lorensen is Lola's imaginary friend.

0:04:060:04:09

No-one else can see him.

0:04:090:04:12

Ooh! Thanks, Lola!

0:04:120:04:14

It's a shiny, sparklyish, thing from a Christmas tree.

0:04:140:04:19

Yes! And you can see your face in it! Look!

0:04:190:04:23

-Happy Christmas!

-Happy Christmas! Happy Christmas!

0:04:230:04:27

Ding-dong! Happy Christmas to you!

0:04:290:04:33

-That...is a really nice Christmas card.

-I knew you would like it!

0:04:360:04:41

I have to go and write my letters to Father Christmas.

0:04:410:04:46

I'm going to ask for something extra special for Charlie.

0:04:460:04:52

-Hmm... Presents...

-I'm ready to write to Father Christmas now!

0:04:520:04:57

I'm going to draw pictures of the things I would like.

0:04:570:05:02

A purse on a string...

0:05:050:05:07

And I really, also, really want...

0:05:070:05:10

Granny and Grandpa to come and stay!

0:05:100:05:13

-Hmmm.

-I think I will ask Mum to help me with this bit...

0:05:130:05:19

as there may be something for you-hoo!

0:05:190:05:23

Mum!

0:05:230:05:25

Hmm. What would I like?

0:05:250:05:27

Maybe I'd like a tennis racquet.

0:05:270:05:30

Or a boomerang!

0:05:300:05:31

Or...a chemistry set to do lots of experiments.

0:05:340:05:38

-Yes!

-There! Mum helped me.

0:05:410:05:44

Now, all I need to do is...

0:05:440:05:46

put Father Christmas' letter in a RED envelope,

0:05:460:05:50

because that is the same colour as his coat.

0:05:500:05:54

And he likes red.

0:05:540:05:57

-Hmm.

-No peeking, Lola. This is MY private letter to Father Christmas.

0:05:570:06:02

OK, Charlie.

0:06:020:06:03

Oh. Hmm. Father Christmas... Lotta.

0:06:050:06:10

Hmm. Erm...

0:06:100:06:11

Lotta... Father Christmas.

0:06:110:06:14

You write! "Father Christmas, Christmas Land,

0:06:140:06:18

"Further Than The Moon, The Sky, Space, The Universe...

0:06:180:06:22

-"Very, Very Far Away."

-Father Christmas...

0:06:220:06:27

L... O... T... T... A... Lotta!

0:06:270:06:31

Oh, Charlie, I'm very excited!

0:06:310:06:33

We can post our letters to Father Christmas on our way to school!

0:06:330:06:38

Yeah! And we can post our cards for our friends in the school postbox.

0:06:380:06:43

I can't wait, I can't wait! Oooh!

0:06:430:06:47

-Oh!

-Here you go...

0:06:490:06:51

Hurry up, Lola!

0:06:520:06:55

Don't get lost!

0:06:550:06:57

-SHE WHISPERS:

-"Please remember my special thing for Charlie!"

0:06:570:07:01

I made five cards.

0:07:010:07:03

Your one is the best!

0:07:080:07:09

Maybe it's for you-hoo-hoo...

0:07:100:07:15

Lola! Move up!

0:07:150:07:17

-Lola? Have you already opened this one?

-No, Charlie.

0:07:280:07:32

What do you think it is, then?

0:07:320:07:34

Erm... Maybe it could be a robin,

0:07:340:07:37

with a bit of mistletoe in his beak, standing on a twig with snow.

0:07:370:07:43

-Maybe.

-Hmm.

0:07:430:07:45

-Lola, you DID open my door, didn't you?

-Come on, Charlie!

0:07:470:07:51

-Dad's waiting! It's time to get our Christmas tree!

-Huh!

0:07:510:07:56

-So many to choose from!

-I can't wait for Christmas!

0:07:590:08:03

Do you think the little elf helpers will have opened our letters yet?

0:08:030:08:09

Hmm. I don't know.

0:08:090:08:11

They must have travelled more further than the moon, I think.

0:08:110:08:16

Much more further than the world, even.

0:08:160:08:19

- BOTH: Wow! - C'mon, we need to pick the tree!

0:08:210:08:25

Oh, yes!

0:08:250:08:26

Too branchy!

0:08:280:08:30

Too prickly! Ow!

0:08:310:08:33

Too greeny... Oh! That one!

0:08:340:08:36

I like that one! That big one!

0:08:360:08:40

Thank you! Hi, Lola!

0:08:400:08:42

But... But... That was OUR Christmas tree!

0:08:420:08:45

What about that one?

0:08:450:08:47

It's only a baby tree!

0:08:490:08:51

This is a better tree, Lola.

0:08:510:08:53

Look, it's got roots. And it's alive.

0:08:530:08:55

That means you can use it every year.

0:08:550:08:58

-And every year it will grow bigger...and bigger.

-Ooh!

0:08:580:09:03

We absolutely must have this tree.

0:09:030:09:06

-There!

-Turn the lights on, Dad!

0:09:070:09:10

-Oh!

-Wow!

0:09:100:09:13

BOTH: Awww!

0:09:130:09:15

-Oh!

-Ooh!

0:09:150:09:17

BOTH: Awww.

0:09:170:09:19

Oh!

0:09:190:09:20

Awww!

0:09:200:09:21

Dad! Stop it!

0:09:210:09:24

There!

0:09:240:09:26

-My Sizzles is going faster than your Sizzles.

-Yeah, but mine's got a hat!

0:09:360:09:42

SHE GIGGLES

0:09:430:09:46

I love his poppy-uppy nose!

0:09:510:09:53

Thank you, Lotta!

0:09:530:09:55

Dear...Father...Christmas...

0:09:560:09:59

-For Christmas...

-Huh?

-..please may I have...

0:09:590:10:03

-Oh, no, Lotta! That's my letter to Father Christmas!

0:10:030:10:07

And if you've got my letter to Father Christmas,

0:10:070:10:11

it means Father Christmas won't know about my purse on a string,

0:10:110:10:15

or that I want Granny and Grandpa to come,

0:10:150:10:18

and he won't bring the special surprise for Charlie!

0:10:180:10:22

Oh! Maybe he won't come AT ALL!

0:10:220:10:26

Oh no!

0:10:260:10:30

SHE SNIFFS

0:10:320:10:35

Christmas is all ruined, Charlie.

0:10:350:10:38

If you write another letter super-quickly,

0:10:380:10:42

and we post it right this minute,

0:10:420:10:44

-then it might get to Father Christmas in time.

-But how?

0:10:440:10:48

Let's stick all of my stamp collection on the letter,

0:10:480:10:52

and maybe it'll get there faster! Come on!

0:10:520:10:54

Please get to Father Christmas, please!

0:10:560:11:00

PLEASE! And please remember my special thing for Charlie.

0:11:000:11:06

-Oh!

-It WILL get there!

0:11:060:11:10

-Why was there a cuckoo clock inside the advent calendar?

-I don't know.

0:11:150:11:20

Hmm. Still no snow, Charlie.

0:11:200:11:24

D'you think the letter might have got there by now?

0:11:240:11:27

-PHONE RINGS

-That might be Father Christmas,

0:11:270:11:30

to say he's got my letter!

0:11:300:11:32

One...two...three...four... Four days to go!

0:11:340:11:38

-Granny and Grandpa are definitely NOT coming for Christmas.

-Why?

0:11:380:11:44

Because Caspar the cat has broke his actual paw.

0:11:440:11:48

-Oh, no!

-And if Granny and Grandpa are definitely not coming, Charlie,

0:11:480:11:54

it means that Father Christmas definitely did not get my letter!

0:11:540:11:58

Oh, Lola... There's still time.

0:11:580:12:00

Oh.

0:12:010:12:03

A twinkling star on Christmas Eve!

0:12:090:12:11

That definitely means Christmas is going to be good!

0:12:110:12:15

Father Christmas must have got your letter by now.

0:12:150:12:18

Ooh!

0:12:180:12:20

-It is a very pretty star.

-Come on!

0:12:200:12:24

Let's hang up our stockings!

0:12:240:12:26

Look, Charlie!

0:12:260:12:27

You might get double the presents!

0:12:290:12:32

Ooh!

0:12:320:12:33

How many more minutes until Christmas?

0:12:330:12:36

Just time for some carols, then tomorrow...

0:12:360:12:40

it'll be Christmas!

0:12:400:12:42

Come on, then.

0:12:420:12:43

ALL: # Away in a manger No crib for a bed

0:12:440:12:50

# The little Lord Jesus Lay down his sweet head #

0:12:500:12:56

Arroowwlll!

0:12:560:12:57

-ALL: # The cattle are lowing...

-Mooing! #

0:12:570:13:00

Moo! Moo!

0:13:000:13:02

# The baby awakes #

0:13:020:13:03

# But little Lord Jesus... #

0:13:030:13:07

Snow, Charlie!

0:13:070:13:08

# ..No crying he makes... #

0:13:080:13:10

-Snow definitely means that Christmas is coming, doesn't it?

-Definitely!

0:13:170:13:22

Biscuits for Father Christmas! Cos he must get very hungry.

0:13:220:13:26

-The only thing that's left to do now, Charlie...

-Careful, Lola!

0:13:260:13:31

..is to open the very last door on the advent calendar

0:13:310:13:35

TOMORROW, because then it will be Christmas Day! Ooh!

0:13:350:13:40

Would it be all right if I just looked at the door,

0:13:410:13:44

so that I know where it is for tomorrow?

0:13:440:13:47

-Please?

-OK, Lola, you can FIND it,

0:13:470:13:50

but NO OPENING until tomorrow!

0:13:500:13:53

Hmm...

0:13:530:13:56

Where's Christmas Day?

0:13:560:13:57

Oh! Oh!

0:13:570:14:00

-It's totally and completely not there, Charlie!

-It must be!

0:14:000:14:06

-Where has Christmas gone?

-I'll help you look.

0:14:060:14:09

That's not it!

0:14:090:14:12

There aren't any more closed doors, Lola!

0:14:120:14:15

-Nothing!

-No...

0:14:150:14:18

-Nuh-uh.

-All of them have been opened!

0:14:180:14:21

Where's Christmas gone?

0:14:210:14:23

Hmm?

0:14:260:14:27

Oh!

0:14:270:14:29

Well, if we can't find a door,

0:14:290:14:33

We'll have to make one.

0:14:330:14:34

Charlie, look! It's all white and snowy!

0:14:430:14:49

-It's Christmas Land!

-See, Lola...

0:14:490:14:52

The reindeer IS sleeping!

0:14:520:14:54

Just like I said!

0:14:540:14:55

But Charlie, it's Christmas Eve.

0:14:550:14:58

They need to be awake now, to pull Father Christmas' sleigh.

0:14:580:15:03

BOTH: Hello!

0:15:100:15:11

Ooh!

0:15:110:15:12

THEY SIGH

0:15:140:15:16

What has happened to Christmas? There's no door for Christmas!

0:15:160:15:21

What Lola means is, our calendar didn't have a Christmas Day door!

0:15:210:15:26

-IN NORDIC ACCENT:

-I know! Everything was going well.

0:15:260:15:30

All Father Christmas' letters came down the chute.

0:15:300:15:34

ALL: Down the chute!

0:15:340:15:35

-How d'you know all of them...

-Ahem!

0:15:350:15:38

ALL: Ahem!

0:15:380:15:39

We had got all the toys ready for people who asked nicely.

0:15:390:15:44

ALL: Asked nicely.

0:15:440:15:45

And we were just about to wake up the reindeer,

0:15:450:15:49

when there was a CATASTROPHE!

0:15:490:15:52

ALL: A CATASTROPHE!

0:15:520:15:54

-What's a capastrophe, Charlie?

-It's a really big disaster.

0:15:540:15:58

We ran out of wrapping paper!

0:15:580:16:01

THEY ALL SIGH

0:16:020:16:05

BOTH: Oh...

0:16:050:16:06

But everyone in the world

0:16:060:16:08

has been waiting for Christmas for completely ages!

0:16:080:16:12

If it doesn't come at all, it will be a really big disaster!

0:16:120:16:17

I know! It's a catastrophe!

0:16:170:16:20

It IS! It IS a capastrophe!

0:16:200:16:23

THEY ALL SIGH

0:16:240:16:27

THEY BOTH SIGH

0:16:270:16:29

Come on, Lola.

0:16:310:16:33

Ooh!

0:16:410:16:43

Lola! Stop it!

0:16:430:16:45

The sky's made of paper, Charlie!

0:16:450:16:47

Paper? It is! The sky is made out of paper!

0:16:470:16:53

-Hmm?

-What do you do with paper?

0:16:530:16:56

-Um...

-Wrapping up!

0:16:560:16:59

Wrapping up paper!

0:16:590:17:02

Little helper elves...!

0:17:020:17:05

Hmm?

0:17:090:17:11

ALL: Hmm?

0:17:110:17:13

C'mon, c'mon!

0:17:130:17:14

Urgh!

0:17:190:17:21

-Yes!

-Yes!

0:17:220:17:24

HORN BLOWS

0:17:270:17:31

-Wheee!

-Woo-hoo!

0:17:560:17:58

-Present...

-Wrap...

0:18:210:18:23

-Sticky tape...

-Bow.

0:18:230:18:25

Quickly! We may still have time!

0:18:250:18:28

ALL: Present...wrap... sticky tape...bow.

0:18:280:18:31

Present...wrap... sticky tape...bow.

0:18:310:18:35

-Oh! The cuckoo clock!

-That means it's nearly morning!

We've got to get home, or WE'LL miss Christmas!

0:18:390:18:43

Ooh. Are you sure you didn't see a red letter from Father Christmas?

0:18:450:18:50

With lots and lots of stamps on it?

0:18:500:18:52

We get a LOT of letters at this time of year.

0:18:520:18:56

-Oh.

-Come on, Lola.

0:18:560:18:59

-BOTH: Bye!

-Goodbye!

0:19:000:19:03

CHUTE RATTLES

0:19:030:19:06

My! What a lot of stamps!

0:19:080:19:11

ALL: Present...wrap... sticky tape...bow.

0:19:110:19:15

I told Mum all about the sky-paper,

0:19:160:19:19

and how we saved Christmas, Charlie.

0:19:190:19:22

And she said, we were very extremely clever.

0:19:220:19:26

-Charlie...

-You have to go to sleep!

0:19:260:19:29

I might be a bit too excited to do sleeping.

0:19:290:19:34

If you don't, Father Christmas won't come!

0:19:340:19:37

Oh! Sleep...

0:19:370:19:40

Sleep...

0:19:400:19:42

Sle-e-ep...

0:19:420:19:45

-Oh!

-Oh!

0:19:480:19:50

BOTH: Christmas is here!

0:19:500:19:52

It's came, Charlie! Presents!

0:19:520:19:55

Ooh! Yes!

0:19:550:19:57

Look! They're all wrapped up in our twinkly sky-paper!

0:19:570:20:02

-Uh? What's this one?

-Ooh! A special thing, Charlie,

0:20:040:20:09

I asked Father Christmas to bring, especially for you.

0:20:090:20:13

This?

0:20:130:20:15

Ye-e-es!

0:20:150:20:16

-It's a pineapple, Lola!

0:20:180:20:21

You said tangerines were not a surprise!

0:20:210:20:23

So I asked Father Christmas, "Please, no tangerines",

0:20:230:20:27

and he gave you a pineapple!

0:20:270:20:30

CAR HORN TOOTS

0:20:320:20:36

-Ooh! It's Granny and Grandpa!

-There they are!

0:20:370:20:41

-Mum, Dad!

-Granny and Grandpa are here!

0:20:410:20:45

And I got a pineapple from Lola!

0:20:450:20:48

You see, Charlie. Father Christmas DID get my letter.

0:20:490:20:53

He definitely did, Lola!
