0:00:41 > 0:00:44There it is - Earth -
0:00:44 > 0:00:45the place where we're born,
0:00:45 > 0:00:48knowing little about anything or anyone.
0:00:48 > 0:00:51And day by day we grow and become strong
0:00:51 > 0:00:54and we learn more and more about all the wonderful things
0:00:54 > 0:00:57our planet has to offer.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00And out here, in the vast twinkling blackness of space,
0:01:00 > 0:01:05perhaps we would find other creatures, much like ourselves,
0:01:05 > 0:01:09who are born and grow and learn.
0:01:09 > 0:01:13Ah! There's Small Clanger out fishing in the music boat.
0:01:13 > 0:01:15Let's go and see if he's had any luck.
0:01:21 > 0:01:26Well, he's not doing much fishing! He's just admiring the stars.
0:01:26 > 0:01:32There's a bright one. Hold on...
0:01:32 > 0:01:36That's not a star, it's a shiny...thing.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41Yes, what a curious little thing.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46It's definitely something to show the others.
0:01:49 > 0:01:52There's Tiny Clanger, come to see what Small has caught.
0:02:01 > 0:02:05Tiny's right, it does look like a seed.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08So, they're going to show it to someone
0:02:08 > 0:02:10who really knows about these things.
0:02:20 > 0:02:22Yes, it's a seed all right.
0:02:25 > 0:02:29And Mother says the best thing you can do with a seed is plant it.
0:02:51 > 0:02:55Now they must wait. Be patient. Seeds take time to grow.
0:03:03 > 0:03:07Oh! But not this one, it's shot up in no time at all!
0:03:23 > 0:03:27Yes, that's one very shy, little plant.
0:03:29 > 0:03:33Tiny thinks that perhaps it needs some time to itself.
0:03:46 > 0:03:50It's time for the Clangers to go. Goodbye!
0:03:53 > 0:03:56Oh, I see, they're hiding,
0:03:56 > 0:03:58so they don't scare the little plant.
0:04:01 > 0:04:04Oh, look, it's come back up again.
0:04:04 > 0:04:06GURGLING
0:04:09 > 0:04:14Oh, dear! The noisy Soup Dragon has scared it back into its pot.
0:04:23 > 0:04:27Yes, the Soup Dragon needs to be quiet and come away.
0:04:27 > 0:04:30They have a very shy visitor.
0:04:35 > 0:04:37LOUD CREAKING
0:04:40 > 0:04:43Oh, no! It's gone again!
0:04:47 > 0:04:50Mother says that little plant is even shyer
0:04:50 > 0:04:52than Tiny's flower friends.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59Tiny thinks that perhaps her gentle flower friends
0:04:59 > 0:05:03could help the little plant come up and stay up.
0:05:03 > 0:05:06Well, it's worth a go.
0:05:19 > 0:05:23Of course! Tiny's flower friends are happy to help.
0:05:27 > 0:05:31THEY SING
0:05:35 > 0:05:38THEY LAUGH
0:05:42 > 0:05:45The flower is telling the little plant that this is
0:05:45 > 0:05:49the Clangers' planet, where everyone is nice and kind.
0:05:51 > 0:05:54Oh, dear. It's still very shy.
0:05:57 > 0:06:01Small thinks it may need to have a good look around.
0:06:01 > 0:06:05Then perhaps it won't feel so shy.
0:06:10 > 0:06:14Ah! Ha-ha! A special trolley to give the little plant
0:06:14 > 0:06:17a grand tour of the planet. What a good idea!
0:06:24 > 0:06:28Mother's saying hello and telling it about her garden
0:06:28 > 0:06:31and how she helped the plant to grow.
0:06:35 > 0:06:38And Small says he was the one who found it,
0:06:38 > 0:06:40floating in space as a seed.
0:06:42 > 0:06:46No time to dilly-dally, there are others to meet.
0:06:55 > 0:06:58THEY GURGLE
0:07:02 > 0:07:06the Soup Dragon is introducing herself and her baby
0:07:06 > 0:07:08to the little plant.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10She's telling it that she makes soup,
0:07:10 > 0:07:13lovely, warm soup for the Clangers.
0:07:14 > 0:07:18Ah! Two little leaves! How useful.
0:07:25 > 0:07:28CREAKING
0:07:31 > 0:07:34FLOWER SINGS
0:07:34 > 0:07:37The flower is introducing a Froglet.
0:07:37 > 0:07:40She says the Froglets are nice and kind too.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49Oh! That's new!
0:07:49 > 0:07:52Where to now?
0:07:55 > 0:08:00Ah, yes, the living cave, to visit Granny and Major.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13"Pleased to meet you," says Granny.
0:08:13 > 0:08:18Granny shows the little plant what she likes to do, knitting.
0:08:18 > 0:08:22That's a very nice...er...erm...
0:08:22 > 0:08:25Ah! Now, here's Major.
0:08:32 > 0:08:36He is showing the plant what he likes to do - make inventions.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45The flower says the little plant would like to know
0:08:45 > 0:08:47what Major's invention is for.
0:08:50 > 0:08:55Major says he doesn't know what it's for. Ha-ha!
0:08:55 > 0:08:57THEY LAUGH
0:09:02 > 0:09:07Oh, look! The plant isn't so little any more. It's started to grow.
0:09:13 > 0:09:17The flower says the plant would like to know what Tiny likes to do.
0:09:23 > 0:09:27Come on, flowers, up to the planet's surface.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47MUSIC PLAYS
0:09:49 > 0:09:53Yes, of course! That's what Tiny likes to do.
0:09:53 > 0:09:58She likes to make music and the plant likes music too.
0:10:06 > 0:10:10Oh, goodness me! What an extraordinary flower!
0:10:10 > 0:10:14So shiny and bright and so full of new seeds!
0:10:16 > 0:10:20There they go, up and off into the starry sky.
0:10:20 > 0:10:25You know, sometimes, we all feel shy, especially when things are new.
0:10:25 > 0:10:28But the more we learn about the world
0:10:28 > 0:10:32and the more friends we meet, the easier it is to feel braver.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34And when the time comes, who knows?
0:10:34 > 0:10:38We may just bloom into something really special.
