0:00:02 > 0:00:03The Curious.
0:00:03 > 0:00:06They say he collects strange tales.
0:00:06 > 0:00:08And if you ever hear his whistle,
0:00:08 > 0:00:11you know something creepy is about to unfold.
0:00:11 > 0:00:15No-one knows where he's from, or where he's going to,
0:00:15 > 0:00:18or just how many stories he's collected over the years.
0:00:18 > 0:00:21Hundreds, thousands, maybe more?
0:00:22 > 0:00:25What would you do if your friend was in trouble?
0:00:25 > 0:00:28Would you go to extremes to save them,
0:00:28 > 0:00:32even if it meant putting your own life in grave, grave danger?
0:00:43 > 0:00:44HE CLEARS HIS THROAT

0:00:55 > 0:00:58James T Kirk and Mr Spock.
0:00:58 > 0:01:01But what does it mean to call someone your best friend?
0:01:03 > 0:01:05Friendship isn't about what you get from someone.
0:01:05 > 0:01:07It's about what you give to them.
0:01:07 > 0:01:08What if I give you a wedgie?
0:01:08 > 0:01:09Would that make us friends?
0:01:09 > 0:01:11Zip it, Kelsey.
0:01:12 > 0:01:15A friend is always there for you, no matter what.
0:01:15 > 0:01:18My dad says, if you can get six friends to stand at your funeral...
0:01:19 > 0:01:22..six friends you've known your entire life,
0:01:22 > 0:01:25then you've done something right.
0:01:25 > 0:01:26Now, in the words of Carole King...
0:01:26 > 0:01:29- Thank you, Mr Willoughby. - But I'm not finished.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32- Oh, trust me, you're finished.- But...
0:01:32 > 0:01:34If I just gave you the A now, will you sit down?

0:03:26 > 0:03:27Yes.
0:03:27 > 0:03:31- What happened to you? - Nothing, sir. I...
0:03:31 > 0:03:32..fell into a pond.
0:03:32 > 0:03:33You got a change of clothes?
0:03:33 > 0:03:36- My gym stuff.- Go, change.
0:03:36 > 0:03:38And, um, have a shower.
0:03:38 > 0:03:41You smell like Swamp Thing's armpit.

0:03:52 > 0:03:55Dave, what pond did you fall into?
0:03:55 > 0:03:56Kelsey says you ratted me out?
0:03:56 > 0:03:59What? No, I wouldn't rat anybody out. Dave, you know...
0:03:59 > 0:04:00What, are you calling me a liar?
0:04:00 > 0:04:03No, all I'm saying is this is just a really big misunderstanding.
0:04:03 > 0:04:05- Kelsey says you told Moss. - Clobber him, Stevens.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07Yes, but that's because he asked where you were.
0:04:07 > 0:04:09I just pointed you out. I didn't realise it was a bad idea.
0:04:09 > 0:04:11How could you do something so stupid?
0:04:11 > 0:04:14Well, because you looked scared and I was worried about you.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17That's so sweet. Hear that, boys? He loves you, Stevens.
0:04:17 > 0:04:19He wuvs you so much.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21Next time, just mind your own business.
0:04:23 > 0:04:24Hey, Stevens.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31Can I have my comic back?
0:04:32 > 0:04:34You going to let him get away with that?

0:05:11 > 0:05:12Sir, can I go to the bathroom?
0:05:12 > 0:05:15Oh, that's what that smell was!

0:10:15 > 0:10:18What you have found here is one of the most amazing discoveries.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21I'm still trying to figure out if it's, like, a regular wormhole,

0:11:31 > 0:11:33I haven't seen you in a long while!
0:11:33 > 0:11:36Are you going to help Dave clean up the shed?
0:11:36 > 0:11:40- Yeah.- I'm going to be so happy to have your grandad's stuff gone.
0:11:40 > 0:11:43That man was obsessed with gathering junk!
0:11:44 > 0:11:45Give me a little sugar.
0:11:48 > 0:11:49Going to be good.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52Good, I tell you, to have this old place get a fresh start.
0:11:52 > 0:11:55Go on with you. Go on. Good, go on!
0:11:55 > 0:11:56Lovely lady.
0:11:56 > 0:11:58DAVE SIGHS
0:11:58 > 0:12:01That's why I can't have her go in that shed until I've gotten rid of
0:12:01 > 0:12:02whatever's in there.
0:12:02 > 0:12:06I'm just guessing she doesn't know anything about it, does she?
0:12:06 > 0:12:09She inherited this place from my mean old grandad.
0:12:09 > 0:12:12She deserves a shed that's not going to teleport her into the middle of
0:12:12 > 0:12:14town every time she goes in it.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17And I'm going to come here every day until I've cleared it out.
0:12:19 > 0:12:21What?
0:12:21 > 0:12:24It's just kind of refreshing hearing you sound like you actually
0:12:24 > 0:12:25care about someone else.
0:12:25 > 0:12:27What kind of person just abandons someone?
0:12:30 > 0:12:33All right, we need to get a better look at it.
0:12:33 > 0:12:37Figure out what we're dealing with, then we can make a plan.
0:12:37 > 0:12:38We?
0:12:38 > 0:12:40I don't abandon people either.
0:12:41 > 0:12:43I've got a camera. We'll catch it on film!
0:12:45 > 0:12:46OK, here we go...
0:12:46 > 0:12:48You carry that around with you?
0:12:48 > 0:12:50Of course!
0:12:50 > 0:12:52You never know when you're going to run into a shed monster.

0:13:41 > 0:13:45OK. It doesn't seem to mind if you nudge the stuff,
0:13:45 > 0:13:48but if you touch it with your hands, it flips out.
0:13:48 > 0:13:51Maybe because it thinks you're going to steal it?
0:13:52 > 0:13:55You're right! It makes sense.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59OK...
0:14:01 > 0:14:02Right...

0:14:57 > 0:14:58- at the zoo?- Fell in?
0:14:58 > 0:15:00You pushed me.
0:15:00 > 0:15:01No, I didn't, you were...
0:15:02 > 0:15:05- What?- Did you see the way it reacted to the light?
0:15:05 > 0:15:06Like it was in pain.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13- Where are you going?- Home.
0:15:13 > 0:15:16I've got to develop this film. See if I'm right.

0:16:00 > 0:16:01Ha, ha.
0:16:01 > 0:16:04You'd be surprised what you can find in books.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12Yeah, here it is. Elemental shades.
0:16:12 > 0:16:16They don't really hide in shadows, they're made of shadows.
0:16:16 > 0:16:18Sound familiar?
0:16:18 > 0:16:20Its only weakness is light.
0:16:20 > 0:16:24- That's interesting.- How do you know so much about this stuff?
0:16:24 > 0:16:26I've been spending a lot of time in here lately.
0:16:29 > 0:16:30Greg, listen...
0:16:30 > 0:16:32It says shades are almost impossible to get rid of.
0:16:33 > 0:16:36Almost impossible...
0:16:36 > 0:16:37That means we've still got a shot!

0:16:57 > 0:17:01Actually, you know what? I think I'm good here.
0:17:01 > 0:17:02And his name is Greg.

0:17:15 > 0:17:18They, uh... They seem a bit unhappy with that.
0:17:18 > 0:17:20- Just forget about them.- OK.
0:17:20 > 0:17:22- Want to see again?- Yeah, sure.
0:17:22 > 0:17:24All right, just like that...
0:17:28 > 0:17:34All right. This is the synchronised ignition device.
0:17:34 > 0:17:37- It's a joystick... - WAS a joystick, OK?
0:17:37 > 0:17:39- Stick with the programme.- Sure.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41Now, when I attach this joysti-...
0:17:41 > 0:17:43..ignition device...
0:17:43 > 0:17:48..to this remote firing mechanism.
0:17:48 > 0:17:49- You mean...- Dave...
0:17:49 > 0:17:51..just...
0:17:51 > 0:17:52..use your imagination.
0:17:54 > 0:17:57When that shade comes at us, he won't know what hit him.
0:17:57 > 0:18:00What's going to stop him from teleporting us out again along with
0:18:00 > 0:18:02the "ignition device"?
0:18:02 > 0:18:04You see, that's what I'm counting on.
0:18:13 > 0:18:14Oh, that's comforting...
0:18:15 > 0:18:17Remember?
0:18:17 > 0:18:18He won't go for you...
0:18:20 > 0:18:22..unless you touch the stuff with your hands.
0:18:22 > 0:18:23Right, right.
0:18:23 > 0:18:25There's a place up here.
0:18:27 > 0:18:29OK...
0:18:29 > 0:18:30He's getting feisty.
0:18:30 > 0:18:32All right, put that down.
0:18:32 > 0:18:34Flip it over.
0:18:34 > 0:18:35Thank you.
