0:00:43 > 0:00:45This is the Earth.
0:00:45 > 0:00:47Floating in the nothingness of space.
0:00:48 > 0:00:52All the planets look so calm and neat from here.
0:00:52 > 0:00:54All the messy bedrooms and muddy footprints
0:00:54 > 0:00:57are much too far away to be seen,
0:00:57 > 0:00:59but if we were to go a little closer,
0:00:59 > 0:01:01I wonder what we would see.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05Ah, there's the Soup Dragon,
0:01:05 > 0:01:08keeping the soup wells nice and tidy.
0:01:09 > 0:01:11A CLANGER WHISTLES
0:01:14 > 0:01:17Tiny and Small have come to collect soup.
0:01:22 > 0:01:25The Soup Dragon is not interested in Tiny's dance.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27She seems a bit grumpy.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32Hmm. They should know better than to take the soup
0:01:32 > 0:01:35from the Soup Dragon's soup wells themselves.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53What messy Clangers! Hmm.
0:01:55 > 0:01:57Tiny and Small tell everyone
0:01:57 > 0:02:00about the Soup Dragon being grumpy.
0:02:02 > 0:02:05She didn't even like Tiny's new dance.
0:02:16 > 0:02:18Yes, The Soup Dragon might not like
0:02:18 > 0:02:22being disturbed every time the Clangers need soup.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29Major Clanger is convinced this is the reason
0:02:29 > 0:02:31the Soup Dragon is grumpy.
0:02:31 > 0:02:34She's tired and doesn't want to be disturbed.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38Ah, he's got an idea.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43Major Clanger has started making something.
0:03:07 > 0:03:09IMPRESSED WHISTLE
0:03:09 > 0:03:10Yes.
0:03:10 > 0:03:12Whatever it is, it's impressive.
0:03:14 > 0:03:16QUESTIONING WHISTLE
0:03:16 > 0:03:18HE WHISTLES
0:03:24 > 0:03:25Ah, I see.
0:03:25 > 0:03:27It's for fetching lots of soup,
0:03:27 > 0:03:29so Tiny and Small don't have to
0:03:29 > 0:03:32disturb the Soup Dragon so much.
0:03:32 > 0:03:34MACHINE WHIRS
0:03:39 > 0:03:40That's better.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50I think Mother is more impressed by Tiny's dance.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54But Major isn't interested in dancing.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56He'd much rather try out his invention.
0:03:58 > 0:04:00LOUD WHISTLE
0:04:19 > 0:04:22The Soup Dragon doesn't appear to be here.
0:04:28 > 0:04:29Oh.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31Major has decided to take some soup
0:04:31 > 0:04:33without asking the Soup Dragon.
0:04:38 > 0:04:44MACHINE WHIRS
0:04:48 > 0:04:50The Soup Dragon won't be disturbed
0:04:50 > 0:04:52by a single Clanger for days,
0:04:52 > 0:04:55now that they're taking all that soup.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07Major Clanger explains why
0:05:07 > 0:05:09they're taking lots of soup.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11So they won't disturb her so much any more.
0:05:33 > 0:05:34So there they go,
0:05:34 > 0:05:37with a week's supply of soup.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40No wonder the Soup Dragon is so very grumpy.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56Oh, dear. It appears to be stuck.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13Ah, Major is going to put his back into it.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40It's stuck in the doorway,
0:06:40 > 0:06:42with Tiny and Major on one side
0:06:42 > 0:06:44and Small on the other.
0:06:51 > 0:06:54Good idea. The Soup Dragon can help.
0:06:56 > 0:06:57Or maybe not.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02PLEADING WHISTLE
0:07:03 > 0:07:06Yes. Why won't the Soup Dragon help?
0:07:10 > 0:07:14Oh, I see. The Soup Dragon is upset.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16She doesn't like the Clangers leaving
0:07:16 > 0:07:18the soup cave in such a mess
0:07:18 > 0:07:22and none of the Clangers say please or thank you.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24And now they want her to help them?
0:07:26 > 0:07:29SORRY WHISTLE
0:07:40 > 0:07:41Ah, that's better.
0:07:41 > 0:07:45The Soup Dragon wanted Small to say please and thank you.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47And he did.
0:07:49 > 0:07:52Well, it's turned into a family affair now.
0:07:52 > 0:07:54HAPPY WHISTLE
0:07:55 > 0:07:59The Soup Dragon thinks Small Clanger had better stand aside.
0:08:33 > 0:08:35Thank you, indeed, Soup Dragon.
0:08:35 > 0:08:37That really did the trick.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42Oh, dear.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52Well, no harm done,
0:08:52 > 0:08:54but there's a lot of cleaning up to do.
0:09:04 > 0:09:07Small explains that the Soup Dragon was grumpy
0:09:07 > 0:09:10because they took the soup without asking,
0:09:10 > 0:09:11but she'll really miss them
0:09:11 > 0:09:14if they don't fetch soup every day.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33Ah, yes. See what a "please" can do.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39Maybe some things are better left the way they started.
0:09:52 > 0:09:54It looks like Major has had another idea.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04MACHINE WHIRS
0:10:09 > 0:10:11Look at that.
0:10:11 > 0:10:15Major's invention makes an excellent vacuum cleaner.
0:10:28 > 0:10:31One happy Soup Dragon.
0:10:31 > 0:10:32Well, there we are.
0:10:32 > 0:10:36It just goes to show an idea is always worth having.
0:10:36 > 0:10:39You just have to know what your idea is for.
