0:00:06 > 0:00:08The Curious.
0:00:08 > 0:00:13They say he collects strange tales, and if you ever hear his whistle,
0:00:13 > 0:00:15you know something creepy is about to unfold.
0:00:17 > 0:00:21No-one knows where he's from, or where he's going to,
0:00:21 > 0:00:22or if he ever gets scared.
0:00:24 > 0:00:26Do his tales ever linger in his mind?
0:00:28 > 0:00:32You know that feeling when you get something stuck in your head?
0:00:32 > 0:00:34What if it was really stuck,
0:00:34 > 0:00:37and there was nothing you could do to get it out?
0:01:07 > 0:01:10I've paired you with Patrol Second-in-command Janie
0:01:10 > 0:01:11to show you the ropes.
0:01:11 > 0:01:14Welcome to the Donner Troop.
0:01:14 > 0:01:16Oh, wow, your uniform.
0:01:16 > 0:01:18It's so...
0:01:18 > 0:01:19..blank.
0:01:19 > 0:01:23I've never seen one with no badges before, not one.
0:01:23 > 0:01:26Do you think I want to be here?
0:01:26 > 0:01:29Patrol Leader Paxton, can I talk to you for a moment?
0:01:30 > 0:01:33She doesn't even have a Bravery Badge.
0:01:34 > 0:01:38The Hedgehog Ranger Patrol is an inclusive organisation, Janie.
0:01:38 > 0:01:40You've even got the badge to prove it.
0:01:40 > 0:01:42And everyone has to start somewhere, hmm?
0:01:44 > 0:01:46All right, ladies.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49We've got a long way to go, and we need to get there before dark.
0:01:58 > 0:02:00What does Ana-Ciall mean?
0:02:00 > 0:02:02Death.
0:02:18 > 0:02:20SHE COUGHS
0:02:20 > 0:02:24- What is that?- Insect repellent, all natural ingredients.
0:02:24 > 0:02:28No bites, fuss, no harm to the environment. Win-win.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30You really are loving this, aren't you?
0:02:30 > 0:02:33Nature's our best friend, that relationship goes both ways.
0:02:35 > 0:02:38Ladies, campfire, pronto.
0:02:38 > 0:02:39Story time's limited to 15 minutes.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48So, then this woman climbed out of her car, right?
0:02:48 > 0:02:50She looks down, and...
0:02:50 > 0:02:52Ooooh!
0:02:52 > 0:02:54There it is on the door handle...
0:02:56 > 0:02:57..the hook.
0:02:58 > 0:02:59What hook?
0:03:00 > 0:03:02The one the guy's been stalking her with.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04You never said he had a hook.
0:03:04 > 0:03:05Erm, yeah, I did.
0:03:05 > 0:03:07No, you said hockey mask.
0:03:07 > 0:03:10Well, I meant hook.
0:03:10 > 0:03:11He had a hook, all right?
0:03:13 > 0:03:15Well, thanks, Arlene.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17Though I think the idea was to scare,
0:03:17 > 0:03:19not to send everyone into a coma.
0:03:20 > 0:03:24All right, let's get real for a moment, shall we, ladies?
0:03:24 > 0:03:27Have you noticed how overgrown it is here?
0:03:27 > 0:03:29Yeah?
0:03:29 > 0:03:31There are no footprints, tracks.
0:03:32 > 0:03:35No traces that another human was ever here.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39That's no coincidence.
0:03:39 > 0:03:42It's because no-one has ever dared to stay the night here.
0:03:44 > 0:03:45Not in this spot, no.
0:03:47 > 0:03:48Do you want to know why?
0:03:51 > 0:03:55Surrounding us, living beyond the trees deep in the darkness...
0:03:57 > 0:03:59..lives an evil.
0:04:00 > 0:04:02Can you feel it?
0:04:02 > 0:04:03What's out there?
0:04:04 > 0:04:07This is the most remote spot in Britain.
0:04:07 > 0:04:09Parts of it are unmapped.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12Rumour has it there are things living here that nature
0:04:12 > 0:04:14doesn't want you to know about...
0:04:15 > 0:04:17..hidden in the woods.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21Waiting, watching.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25But we'll never know for sure, though.
0:04:27 > 0:04:29Want to know why?
0:04:31 > 0:04:38Because no-one brave enough or dumb enough to venture anywhere near this
0:04:38 > 0:04:39exact spot...
0:04:40 > 0:04:43..is ever heard of...again.
0:04:53 > 0:04:54Right, then, Rangers, bed!
0:05:07 > 0:05:08I'm scared, Janie.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12It's OK, Jojo.
0:05:12 > 0:05:14Here.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17Makeshift night-light.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21How do you know all this stuff?
0:05:21 > 0:05:23Were you, like, born in a tree?
0:05:23 > 0:05:26Basic training. If you took your headphones out for once,
0:05:26 > 0:05:29maybe you'd actually enjoy it?
0:05:29 > 0:05:31Nature is our friend, remember.
0:05:31 > 0:05:33And your only friend, I'm guessing.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38You don't like camping, you don't like badges,
0:05:38 > 0:05:40you don't like the Rangers.
0:05:40 > 0:05:41Why are you even here?
0:05:42 > 0:05:43No choice.
0:05:44 > 0:05:48Mum wanted a fancy cruise, no kids allowed, so...
0:05:50 > 0:05:52..here I am, in a tent...
0:05:54 > 0:05:55..with you.
0:05:55 > 0:05:57Yay.
0:05:58 > 0:06:00There are other badges, you know?
0:06:00 > 0:06:02Like music-making, songwriting.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06- Really?- Yeah, tonnes of cool ones.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08Wow, I had no idea.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13Hey, is there a badge for being mute?
0:06:13 > 0:06:15Maybe you could try for that bad boy.
0:06:23 > 0:06:24Where are you going?
0:06:24 > 0:06:29To the little girls' room, if that's OK with you, Mum.
0:06:29 > 0:06:32Here, nature's loo roll.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35Erm, I think I'll stick with my own, thanks.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42But you can't, not in the woods. Not alone.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44What is this about, Paxton's story?
0:06:44 > 0:06:47Get a grip, there's nothing out there.
0:06:47 > 0:06:49Please, Arlene, I don't think you should.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52I'll be right back.
0:06:52 > 0:06:53ARLENE CHUCKLES
0:07:02 > 0:07:05BUZZING
0:07:05 > 0:07:07Stupid bug.
0:07:11 > 0:07:14FAINT BUZZING
0:07:38 > 0:07:40Ow.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42Ugh.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44Ah!
0:07:44 > 0:07:45Ow!
0:07:46 > 0:07:48SHE GROANS
0:07:54 > 0:07:59# La-la, la-la-la. #
0:08:15 > 0:08:18Wow, you two look really awful.
0:08:20 > 0:08:24The sounds in the dark kept waking me up all night.
0:08:24 > 0:08:27Which in turn kept me up.
0:08:27 > 0:08:28Want to get yourself some tunes.
0:08:28 > 0:08:30Slept like a baby.
0:08:31 > 0:08:32Wait.
0:08:35 > 0:08:37Here, try these.
0:08:38 > 0:08:39Dock leaves.
0:08:39 > 0:08:42Perfect for reducing bags under the eyes.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44Nature's natural anti-inflammatory.
0:08:44 > 0:08:47Ow, this stings!
0:08:47 > 0:08:50Erm, looks to me like poison ivy.
0:08:50 > 0:08:52- What?!- Jojo, I'm sorry.
0:08:52 > 0:08:54I'm so tired, I picked the wrong ones.
0:08:54 > 0:08:57Nice one, Second-in-command.
0:08:57 > 0:08:58It really hurts.
0:08:59 > 0:09:01Let's hope PAXTON doesn't see this.
0:09:01 > 0:09:02Don't, shh.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05Hate to know what PAXTON would say.
0:09:07 > 0:09:08What's the situation?
0:09:09 > 0:09:12- Janie?- I made a mistake.
0:09:12 > 0:09:14I'm so tired.
0:09:14 > 0:09:15Of all the people!
0:09:15 > 0:09:17What if it had been berries?
0:09:17 > 0:09:18Sorry, Ranger.
0:09:18 > 0:09:22You leave me no choice but to take your Foraging Badge.
0:09:24 > 0:09:25Arlene?
0:09:26 > 0:09:28Arlene?! Arlene?!
0:09:28 > 0:09:32- What's wrong? - It's Arlene, she's missing.- What?
0:09:32 > 0:09:34Well, she's not in the tent.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37Maybe she got a taxi home.
0:09:37 > 0:09:39Maybe we should all get taxis home.
0:09:39 > 0:09:44She did go to the loo in the night, we assumed she'd crept back in.
0:09:44 > 0:09:46Arlene?
0:09:47 > 0:09:49Arlene?
0:09:49 > 0:09:51All right, everyone.
0:09:51 > 0:09:52We, er...
0:09:52 > 0:09:55We have a missing Ranger.
0:09:55 > 0:09:58I suggest we divide into two companies and search.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00Yeah, good thinking, Janie.
0:10:00 > 0:10:02All right, this side, first team led by me.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05This side, second team led by my second-in-command...
0:10:05 > 0:10:07- Oh, don't say it.- ..Janie.
0:10:07 > 0:10:09Any questions?
0:10:09 > 0:10:13Right, let's bring our Hedgehog Ranger home.
0:10:13 > 0:10:14Arlene?
0:10:14 > 0:10:16- Arlene?- Arlene?
0:10:16 > 0:10:17- Arlene?- Arlene?
0:10:17 > 0:10:19Arlene?
0:10:19 > 0:10:21- Arlene?- Arlene?
0:10:28 > 0:10:30- Arlene?- Arlene?
0:10:30 > 0:10:32Arlene?
0:10:32 > 0:10:33Arlene?
0:10:34 > 0:10:36- Arlene?- Arlene?
0:10:37 > 0:10:41First 24 hours after a person goes missing are crucial.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43Aren't all the hours crucial?
0:10:43 > 0:10:45Arlene?
0:10:45 > 0:10:47Maybe if we head back towards the trail...
0:10:47 > 0:10:49If I was lost, that's where I'd be headed.
0:10:49 > 0:10:50We have to have a system.
0:10:50 > 0:10:52Blanket the area in a grid pattern,
0:10:52 > 0:10:54so that we don't double-back on ourselves.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57We need to resist the urge to wander aimlessly.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00Cos we're doing such a great job of that now.
0:11:00 > 0:11:03Look, I have an Emergency Search Badge.
0:11:03 > 0:11:06- What do you have? - Lucky for me, these.
0:11:06 > 0:11:07Arlene?
0:11:15 > 0:11:16Arlene?
0:11:20 > 0:11:22What are they doing?
0:11:29 > 0:11:32FAINT HUMMING
0:11:35 > 0:11:36Go get Paxton.
0:11:47 > 0:11:49Janie, wait.
0:11:49 > 0:11:53Patrol Leader Paxton, there's trouble with your group.
0:11:53 > 0:11:58# La-la-la, la-la, la
0:11:58 > 0:12:03# La-la-la, la-la, la
0:12:03 > 0:12:08# La-la-la, la-la, la
0:12:08 > 0:12:12# La-la-la, la-la, la. #
0:12:12 > 0:12:14I think...we should leave.
0:12:14 > 0:12:15For once, I agree.
0:12:17 > 0:12:23# La-la-la, la-la, la. #
0:12:25 > 0:12:26Run!
0:12:37 > 0:12:39It's like they've lost their minds.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41Whatever it is, it's contagious.
0:12:41 > 0:12:43We've got to stay as far from them as possible
0:12:43 > 0:12:45if we don't want to become...
0:12:45 > 0:12:48# La-la-la, la-la, la. #
0:12:48 > 0:12:49..infected.
0:12:49 > 0:12:51Run!
0:12:51 > 0:12:52Go, go, go!
0:13:04 > 0:13:06Did we lose her?
0:13:07 > 0:13:08What is this place?
0:13:11 > 0:13:14As if today couldn't get any creepier.
0:13:14 > 0:13:15This.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20We should go, they could be on us any minute.
0:13:22 > 0:13:24Wait, I recognise this.
0:13:26 > 0:13:28Look at this symbol.
0:13:28 > 0:13:30This is the Hedgehog Rangers.
0:13:30 > 0:13:33- What?- An outdated version, anyway.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42Guys, guys?
0:13:43 > 0:13:44I really think we should go now.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54I think I know what this is.
0:13:55 > 0:14:00I mean, I've read the story, but I never actually believed it.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02The Little'un Troop.
0:14:03 > 0:14:05What's The Little'un Troop?
0:14:06 > 0:14:10A spooky campfire story. At least I thought it was.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14About a Hedgehog Ranger Patrol called The Little'uns
0:14:14 > 0:14:18that went camping in these woods 30 years ago.
0:14:18 > 0:14:19And were never seen again.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21Just say it - and were never seen again!
0:14:21 > 0:14:23Jo, don't worry.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25We're going to get out of this.
0:14:26 > 0:14:28Jo, you keep watch.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31You hear anything, you let us know, OK?
0:14:31 > 0:14:32OK.
0:15:12 > 0:15:13Look at this.
0:15:14 > 0:15:16"They get in."
0:15:17 > 0:15:18They?
0:15:18 > 0:15:19What are they?
0:15:21 > 0:15:23That's the last entry.
0:15:45 > 0:15:49FAINT BUZZING
0:15:54 > 0:15:55What is that?
0:15:57 > 0:16:00"Whatever you do, don't let them in."
0:16:05 > 0:16:07Jojo, what's wrong?
0:16:09 > 0:16:10Look...
0:16:12 > 0:16:14I can hear something...
0:16:14 > 0:16:16..and it's not stopping.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19What is it?
0:16:21 > 0:16:22What?
0:16:23 > 0:16:24What was that look? I saw that.
0:16:26 > 0:16:29Nothing's wrong with me, if that's what you're thinking.
0:16:29 > 0:16:30I'm fine.
0:16:32 > 0:16:34Guys, I'm totally fine.
0:16:36 > 0:16:37Jojo?
0:16:37 > 0:16:39The music's so loud.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45What's happening to me, Janie?
0:16:45 > 0:16:46No, no. I'm fine.
0:16:48 > 0:16:49Aren't I, Janie?
0:16:54 > 0:16:59# La-la-la, la-la, la
0:16:59 > 0:17:04# La-la-la, la-la, la. #
0:17:15 > 0:17:17Janie, are you OK?
0:17:17 > 0:17:19I don't want to talk about it.
0:17:22 > 0:17:25Rule number one, alert an adult.
0:17:25 > 0:17:27In the absence of an adult, blow your whistle,
0:17:27 > 0:17:29an adult should come running.
0:17:29 > 0:17:31- If an adult doesn't... - What are you doing?
0:17:31 > 0:17:34Going through the Hedgehog Ranger Protocol for getting help.
0:17:34 > 0:17:36My protocol for help.
0:17:37 > 0:17:39DIAL TONE
0:17:39 > 0:17:40Ugh, no signal!
0:17:40 > 0:17:42I could've told you that.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45If you knew the Hedgehog Ranger Protocol for help,
0:17:45 > 0:17:48you would know that we could create a smoke signal.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51Mother Nature always provides the answer, you'll see.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54For every problem, nature provides a solution.
0:17:54 > 0:17:55Don't you get it?
0:17:55 > 0:17:57Mother Nature isn't your friend.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59She hates your guts!
0:18:00 > 0:18:02At least I'm trying.
0:18:02 > 0:18:04All you want to do is block everything out with your
0:18:04 > 0:18:06- stupid music.- Hey!
0:18:06 > 0:18:08You don't resolve problems by burying them,
0:18:08 > 0:18:10like your mum did by putting you here.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14Give them back.
0:18:14 > 0:18:18Not until you acknowledge that the only way we're getting out of here
0:18:18 > 0:18:21is the Hedgehog Ranger way.
0:18:21 > 0:18:22LOUD ROCK MUSIC PLAYS
0:18:24 > 0:18:26Chill out, it's not that bad.
0:18:29 > 0:18:33You can hang around here all you want, but that lot back there,
0:18:33 > 0:18:34they're gone.
0:18:34 > 0:18:36It's game on, man.
0:18:36 > 0:18:39I'm not waiting around just to turn into one of them.
0:18:39 > 0:18:40Good luck.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45Then, please...
0:18:47 > 0:18:49Please, help me.
0:18:54 > 0:18:56It must've been back at the tent.
0:18:57 > 0:18:58I started to hear the tune...
0:19:00 > 0:19:02..driving me mad, but I suppressed it.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04Why didn't you say something?
0:19:04 > 0:19:06I'm a Hedgehog Ranger, I can stop it.
0:19:07 > 0:19:09I have to.
0:19:09 > 0:19:10FAINT BUZZING
0:19:14 > 0:19:15It's getting too strong.
0:19:17 > 0:19:19I can't drown it out.
