All aboard!

0:00:020:00:03

Hello, everyone!

0:00:150:00:17

Hello, Driver Dan!

0:00:170:00:19

# Which of our friends are we going to see?

0:00:250:00:29

# Which of our friends do you think it will be?

0:00:290:00:33

# Climb aboard and travel with me

0:00:330:00:37

# All aboard the story tra-ai-ain. #

0:00:370:00:42

All aboard the story train!

0:00:420:00:44

Twinkle, have you spotted someone?

0:00:460:00:48

I can't see who it is, can you?

0:00:480:00:50

Oh, look, a ball!

0:00:530:00:55

Who's playing with the ball?

0:00:550:00:57

I heard a bell.

0:00:570:01:00

Look, it's Precious.

0:01:000:01:02

And Hip and Hop.

0:01:020:01:04

You're right. Well done. Let's see what they're doing.

0:01:040:01:09

-Yay!

-I'll catch the ball.

0:01:090:01:11

Wah! Woo!

0:01:110:01:13

-CRASH!

-Oh!

0:01:130:01:14

Oh!

0:01:140:01:16

-Ooh!

-Ow!

0:01:160:01:17

Ha-ha-ha, I'm OK!

0:01:170:01:20

At least she tried.

0:01:200:01:22

What was she trying to do?

0:01:220:01:24

We are playing camel cricket.

0:01:240:01:27

I'm the camel, so I'm the hitter.

0:01:270:01:30

Hip is the thrower, and Hop...uh, is the catcher.

0:01:300:01:35

But it's really hard being the catcher on your own.

0:01:350:01:39

No problem, Hop, I could be the thrower,

0:01:390:01:41

then Hip can help you catch.

0:01:410:01:44

Thanks, Driver Dan. Come on, Hip!

0:01:440:01:46

-Ha-ha!

-Wait for me, Hop!

0:01:460:01:50

This is going to be a great game of camel cricket now. Ooh-hoo!

0:01:500:01:55

Everyone ready?

0:01:550:01:57

Oh!

0:02:020:02:04

Oh! I've got it! I've got it!

0:02:050:02:08

I've got it, me!

0:02:080:02:11

-THUMP!

-Ooops!

0:02:210:02:23

Um, are you all right?

0:02:230:02:25

BOTH: Yeah!

0:02:250:02:27

Think so.

0:02:270:02:28

It's no use. We did try, but we can't catch it,

0:02:320:02:35

even if there are two of us.

0:02:350:02:37

We really like camel cricket, Precious,

0:02:370:02:40

but we can't do the catching. Sorry.

0:02:400:02:43

That's OK. Shall we play something else instead?

0:02:430:02:46

But camel cricket is great fun. Let's have another go.

0:02:460:02:50

Maybe the next passenger on the story train

0:02:500:02:53

-can help you catch the ball.

-Yay!

-Come on!

-Yes!

0:02:530:02:56

Who do you think can help Hip and Hop catch the ball?

0:02:560:03:00

Maybe Tallulah, she can use her trunk to catch it.

0:03:000:03:03

Or Loopy, he's good at catching. He could use his loop.

0:03:030:03:07

Good idea. Come on, everyone, let's find someone who can help.

0:03:070:03:11

Tweet-tweet!

0:03:110:03:14

Are you ready, too? Then let's go! All aboard the story train!

0:03:140:03:19

All aboard the story train!

0:03:190:03:21

Can you see who's next on the story train?

0:03:310:03:34

I hope they're good at catching.

0:03:340:03:36

It's the counting sheep.

0:03:360:03:38

Yeah, the counting sheep are next on the story train.

0:03:380:03:43

-Look, they've made a sheep tower.

-It's really high.

0:03:430:03:47

They're good at that, aren't they?

0:03:470:03:49

Hello, counting sheep. Great team work.

0:03:490:03:53

Baaa!

0:03:530:03:55

Hi, sheep. Do you want to play camel cricket, eh?

0:03:560:04:01

Catch!

0:04:010:04:03

-Oh.

-Baaa!

0:04:040:04:07

Oh, dear. It's a problem, isn't it?

0:04:070:04:09

The counting sheep aren't very good at catching. How will they join in?

0:04:090:04:14

-Baaa!

-Baa!

0:04:140:04:17

It looks like they want to join anyway. Maybe they can help.

0:04:170:04:21

-What do you think?

-Yeah! Let's let the counting sheep play.

-Why not?!

0:04:210:04:26

Right, you've all got to try really hard to help Hip and Hop

0:04:260:04:30

catch the ball, do you think you can do that?

0:04:300:04:34

-Baa!

-Driver Dan, I don't think this is going to work.

0:04:340:04:38

Me neither. The counting sheep just aren't...well,

0:04:380:04:42

they're not catchers, are they?

0:04:420:04:45

Couldn't we find someone else to join in? Someone who can catch?

0:04:450:04:50

Ha-ha! Just you wait and see,

0:04:500:04:52

those counting sheep are always full of surprises. Come on, everyone.

0:04:520:04:57

Baa!

0:05:000:05:03

-Baa!

-Baa!

-Baa!

-Baa!

0:05:030:05:06

THEY WHISPER: Hip, the counting sheep

0:05:060:05:09

-really want to be good at this.

-I know!

0:05:090:05:12

OK, then, let's do it together!

0:05:120:05:15

Everybody ready?

0:05:200:05:22

Wow!

0:05:330:05:34

-Well done!

-Woohoo!

0:05:400:05:42

Baaa!

0:05:420:05:44

Counting sheep, you were brilliant!

0:05:440:05:47

We could never have caught the ball without you.

0:05:470:05:51

What a great story train camel cricket team!

0:05:510:05:54

Playing together made it much more fun!

0:05:540:05:57

I love playing camel cricket with everyone. But, phew, now I'm tired!

0:05:570:06:03

Yes, and my tail needs a rest!

0:06:030:06:07

Well, I think the whole of the story train camel cricket team

0:06:070:06:12

has earned a great story today.

0:06:120:06:14

-Time for story corner?

-Yeah!

-Story corner!

0:06:140:06:18

It's story time!

0:06:200:06:23

Are you ready, too? Then let's go! All aboard the story train!

0:06:270:06:32

All aboard the story train!

0:06:320:06:35

-We're going to have a story!

-A story about playing games.

0:06:350:06:39

-Yeah, playing cricket.

-Camel cricket!

-Yeah!

0:06:390:06:43

-Hooray!

-Hooray!

0:06:580:07:01

Who's ready for a story?

0:07:010:07:03

We are! A story about camel games would be really good, Driver Dan.

0:07:030:07:09

Ah-ha, I know just the book.

0:07:090:07:11

Is everybody settled down and ready to listen?

0:07:110:07:15

-I'm ready, Driver Dan.

-Baa!

0:07:150:07:18

And all of you? Sitting down comfy and ready to listen?

0:07:180:07:22

-Ready, Dan!

-Yeah, story time!

0:07:220:07:25

This story is called Mary The Mermaid.

0:07:250:07:28

It was written by Annie Dalton and the pictures are by Amelia Taylor.

0:07:280:07:34

Mary the Mermaid was bored.

0:07:340:07:37

"Tra-la-la," she sang as she swam to the coral caves.

0:07:370:07:43

"I'm going to ask Ollie Octopus to play football."

0:07:430:07:47

But Ollie wasn't there.

0:07:470:07:49

Mary swam to the seashell grotto.

0:07:490:07:52

"Davey Dolphin, come and dive with me!"

0:07:520:07:56

But Davey wasn't there.

0:07:560:07:58

"Bother," said Mary.

0:07:580:08:00

She swam to white sand bay.

0:08:000:08:02

"Susie Seal, Susie Seal, come and play racing!"

0:08:020:08:07

But Susie wasn't there.

0:08:070:08:09

Oh, dear. Mary has nobody to play with.

0:08:090:08:13

I wonder where all her friends are.

0:08:130:08:16

"This is no fun," said Mary, "I've got no-one to play with."

0:08:160:08:21

She swam slowly home. But, just as she reached her own front door...

0:08:210:08:28

"Boo!"

0:08:280:08:29

-Ha-ha!

-Ha-ha!

0:08:290:08:31

"Come and play, Mary Mermaid! Come and play hide and seek."

0:08:310:08:37

"Hurrah!" said Mary, "That's the best game of all!"

0:08:370:08:42

And so they played hide and seek all afternoon.

0:08:420:08:46

Yay!

0:08:460:08:48

Baaa!

0:08:480:08:50

The end. Did you like that?

0:08:500:08:52

It was great. Mary played with all her friends. I love hide and seek.

0:08:520:08:58

Mary didn't know that her friends were hiding.

0:08:580:09:02

-Yeah. Dan, you made me jump when her friends all said, "Boo!"

-Me too!

0:09:020:09:08

Now it's your turn. Which bit did you like best?

0:09:080:09:12

Come on, it's time to show me the story.

0:09:120:09:15

I'm swimming like Mary the Mermaid.

0:09:150:09:18

I'm swimming underwater.

0:09:180:09:21

Where's Mary?

0:09:210:09:22

There's lots of lovely colours here.

0:09:220:09:25

I'm swimming like a dolphin.

0:09:250:09:27

Watch me go!

0:09:270:09:28

I'm being Susie Seal.

0:09:280:09:31

I'm Ollie The Octopus. Look at all my legs.

0:09:320:09:36

Me too. We've got wobbly, wibbly legs.

0:09:360:09:39

I'm looking everywhere for my friends.

0:09:390:09:42

-Hello!

-Hello!

-Here we are!

0:09:420:09:45

Let's play hide and seek, too.

0:09:450:09:48

Boo!

0:09:480:09:50

-Hello, Mary.

-We're in Mary's house.

0:09:500:09:53

Look at Mary's house. It's beautiful.

0:09:530:09:56

Well done. That was really good.

0:09:570:10:00

SHEEP BLEAT

0:10:000:10:02

Mary the Mermaid was a nice story, wasn't it?

0:10:020:10:05

I think the counting sheep liked hearing a story

0:10:050:10:08

about friends playing games, don't you?

0:10:080:10:11

Glad you enjoyed the story, everyone, and the new game.

0:10:110:10:15

But now it's time to go. All aboard!

0:10:150:10:18

All aboard the story train!

0:10:180:10:20

He-he! Yay!

0:10:230:10:25

-All aboard!

-All aboard!

0:10:250:10:27

Bye, everyone. It's time to go,

0:10:300:10:33

but let's come back soon, because we all love stories!

0:10:330:10:37

Bye, Driver Dan. Bye.

0:10:370:10:39

I like stories about the seaside.

0:10:460:10:49

My favourites are funny stories.

0:10:490:10:52

I like happy stories.

0:10:520:10:54

I like stories that go, "Boo!"
