0:00:15 > 0:00:19- Hello, everyone! - Hello, Driver Dan!
0:00:25 > 0:00:29# Which of our friends are we going to see?
0:00:29 > 0:00:33# Which of our friends do you think it will be?
0:00:33 > 0:00:37# Climb aboard and travel with me
0:00:37 > 0:00:40# All aboard the story train!
0:00:40 > 0:00:44# All aboard the story train! #
0:00:45 > 0:00:49- TWINKLE TWEETS - Twinkle, have you spotted someone?
0:00:49 > 0:00:51I can't see who it is. Can you?
0:00:51 > 0:00:53THUDDING OF FEET Listen!
0:00:53 > 0:00:55I can hear thumpy, bouncy running.
0:00:55 > 0:00:58- BELL TINKLES - And something tinkly!
0:00:58 > 0:01:00BOTH: It's Loopy and Precious!
0:01:00 > 0:01:04It is! Let's go and say hello.
0:01:09 > 0:01:12Hello, Precious! What's Loopy up to?
0:01:12 > 0:01:16Hello, Driver Dan. I don't know what he's...oh!
0:01:16 > 0:01:19Driver Dan! Thank goodness you're here!
0:01:19 > 0:01:23- Did you bring them? - Uh... Hello, Loopy. I'm over here!
0:01:23 > 0:01:27Oh, hello. There you are! Did you bring them, Driver Dan?
0:01:27 > 0:01:31- Bring what, Loopy?- My glasses. I can't find them anywhere.
0:01:31 > 0:01:33I can't see very well.
0:01:33 > 0:01:37- No, I haven't brought them. I don't know where they are either.- Oh!
0:01:37 > 0:01:40I don't think I'm ever going to find them again.
0:01:40 > 0:01:42They might be lost forever!
0:01:42 > 0:01:46Don't worry, Loopy. I'm really good at finding things.
0:01:46 > 0:01:50We just need to find a trail or a clue to help us.
0:01:50 > 0:01:51How do we do that?
0:01:51 > 0:01:54I could find them ...like a detective!
0:01:54 > 0:01:58I can be Detective Precious...
0:01:58 > 0:02:02and I will solve the mystery of Loopy's lost glasses!
0:02:02 > 0:02:03Oooh!
0:02:03 > 0:02:08First, we need to look around very carefully for clues.
0:02:09 > 0:02:12Where do you think we should look first for a clue?
0:02:12 > 0:02:16Uh...there! In the toy box.
0:02:16 > 0:02:17Good idea!
0:02:17 > 0:02:20How about Loopy's toy box, Precious?
0:02:20 > 0:02:23Yes. Everyone, follow me!
0:02:23 > 0:02:27Hmm. Interesting.
0:02:27 > 0:02:31No, not that. No.
0:02:31 > 0:02:33Whoa! I'd forgotten about that. Ha-ha!
0:02:33 > 0:02:35Detective Precious reports -
0:02:35 > 0:02:40no glasses and no clues found in the toy box.
0:02:40 > 0:02:41Are you sure?
0:02:41 > 0:02:43LAUGHTER
0:02:43 > 0:02:47- I don't think these are my glasses, are they?- Don't worry.
0:02:47 > 0:02:52Detective Precious will solve the mystery of Loopy's lost glasses.
0:02:52 > 0:02:56Em...let's get on the story train to look for a clue!
0:02:56 > 0:02:57Good idea, Precious.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00Um...Detective Precious.
0:03:02 > 0:03:06I'm going to keep my detective eyes open for a clue.
0:03:06 > 0:03:08BELL TINKLES
0:03:08 > 0:03:12Just a minute! My detective tail is tinging!
0:03:12 > 0:03:13A clue!
0:03:13 > 0:03:17Why is there a spade here?
0:03:17 > 0:03:21- Is this yours, Loopy?- No. I borrowed it from Sweetie's garden.
0:03:21 > 0:03:25She said I could play with it but I lost my glasses and I couldn't!
0:03:25 > 0:03:26That's it!
0:03:26 > 0:03:32Detective Precious has solved the mystery of Loopy's lost glasses!
0:03:32 > 0:03:34- Really?- Yes!
0:03:34 > 0:03:38Loopy must have left his glasses in Sweetie's garden.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40Come on. Let's go!
0:03:40 > 0:03:42- Hooray!- Well done.
0:03:42 > 0:03:45Let's follow this clue to Sweetie's garden!
0:03:45 > 0:03:48Are you ready too? Then let's go!
0:03:48 > 0:03:51All aboard the story train!
0:03:59 > 0:04:02There she is! It's Sweetie.
0:04:02 > 0:04:03We've found her.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06Great! Let's go and see if Detective Precious
0:04:06 > 0:04:09has solved the mystery of Loopy's lost glasses.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16Ah, hello, everyone.
0:04:16 > 0:04:21I'm collecting carrots but I can't pull this big one out without my...
0:04:21 > 0:04:22Your spade.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25Oh, my spade!
0:04:25 > 0:04:28Thank you, Driver Dan. Thanks, Precious.
0:04:28 > 0:04:30Today, I'm Detective Precious
0:04:30 > 0:04:34and I'm going to solve the mystery of Loopy's lost glasses.
0:04:34 > 0:04:37They should be right here, in your garden.
0:04:40 > 0:04:42Oh, I'm sorry, Loopy.
0:04:42 > 0:04:45I thought the spade was a clue.
0:04:45 > 0:04:49But you have found your bucket instead, Loopy.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51- Bucket?- My bucket!
0:04:51 > 0:04:56Yes, when you borrowed my spade you left your bucket here by mistake.
0:04:56 > 0:05:01Loopy, you used a bucket and then you needed a spade.
0:05:01 > 0:05:05Hmm. My detective tail is tinging again!
0:05:05 > 0:05:08Hmm. Carrots and sand...
0:05:08 > 0:05:10Sand!
0:05:10 > 0:05:13- SHE LAUGHS - This is the best clue yet!
0:05:13 > 0:05:16Loopy, were you playing in my sandpit?
0:05:16 > 0:05:18Um...yes.
0:05:18 > 0:05:20Ahaaa!
0:05:20 > 0:05:22Everyone, follow me!
0:05:26 > 0:05:32We are now about to solve the mystery of Loopy's lost glasses.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35Driver Dan, could you dig, please?
0:05:35 > 0:05:37Certainly, Detective Precious!
0:05:38 > 0:05:40That's it, nice and gently.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42What's that?
0:05:42 > 0:05:45Did you make that sand castle with the flag, Loopy?
0:05:45 > 0:05:48Yes! I used the bucket to make it,
0:05:48 > 0:05:50then I wanted a spade to dig out the moat.
0:05:50 > 0:05:53But I don't remember having a flag.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56Oh! Precious, you've found them!
0:05:56 > 0:05:59Hooray for Detective Precious!
0:05:59 > 0:06:01Yes, well done, Detective!
0:06:01 > 0:06:02Here you go.
0:06:02 > 0:06:07Hooray! Story Corner, here we come!
0:06:07 > 0:06:10He's right. It's time for Story Corner!
0:06:10 > 0:06:11Hooray!
0:06:12 > 0:06:15We're all hooked up. Twinkle, are we ready to go?
0:06:15 > 0:06:17TWEET-TWEET
0:06:17 > 0:06:18Are you ready, too?
0:06:18 > 0:06:20Then let's go!
0:06:20 > 0:06:22All aboard the story train!
0:06:22 > 0:06:24We're going to have a story!
0:06:24 > 0:06:26Maybe it'll be about a detective.
0:06:26 > 0:06:30- I think it'll be about finding things.- Yeah!
0:06:41 > 0:06:42Who's ready for a story?
0:06:42 > 0:06:47- We are!- I wonder if the story will be about finding things.
0:06:47 > 0:06:51I was thinking maybe... Aha!
0:06:51 > 0:06:55I know just the book! Is everyone settled down and ready to listen?
0:06:55 > 0:06:58- Yes, we are!- Ready.- Ready.
0:06:58 > 0:07:02- And all of you? Sitting down comfy and ready to listen?- Ready, Dan!
0:07:02 > 0:07:07This story is called Desert Dash. It was written by Vivian French
0:07:07 > 0:07:10and the pictures are by Martyn Warren.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13Big Camel was always boasting
0:07:13 > 0:07:17"I'm the biggest. I'm the fastest. I'm the best."
0:07:17 > 0:07:19"Hmm," said Tortoise,
0:07:19 > 0:07:23"It's time someone taught Big Camel a lesson."
0:07:23 > 0:07:27Tortoise went over to Little Camel and whispered in her ear.
0:07:27 > 0:07:30Little Camel nodded. "I'll do it," she said.
0:07:30 > 0:07:34That night, Tortoise walked out into the desert.
0:07:34 > 0:07:37He tucked in his head and tucked in his toes
0:07:37 > 0:07:42and he looked just like a big brown stone.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44Oooh. Look at all that sand!
0:07:44 > 0:07:46The next day, Little Camel said,
0:07:46 > 0:07:51"Guess what I can do? I can run to that big brown stone and come back
0:07:51 > 0:07:54"before all the children have counted to 50."
0:07:54 > 0:07:58And off Little Camel ran, whilst everyone counted.
0:07:58 > 0:08:01Back she came, in a flurry of sand.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03"49!" Shouted all the children.
0:08:03 > 0:08:05"Well done, Little Camel!"
0:08:05 > 0:08:09Out in the desert, Tortoise walked a little further...
0:08:09 > 0:08:11And then, a little further...
0:08:11 > 0:08:13And then, a little further still.
0:08:13 > 0:08:17And then he tucked in his head and he tucked in his toes,
0:08:17 > 0:08:20So he looked just like a big brown stone.
0:08:20 > 0:08:23Big Camel didn't see Tortoise moving.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25He was too busy boasting to Little Camel.
0:08:25 > 0:08:30"Call that fast? I'll be back before everyone has counted to 20!"
0:08:30 > 0:08:33And off he ran, whilst all the children counted.
0:08:33 > 0:08:35And counted...
0:08:35 > 0:08:37And counted...
0:08:37 > 0:08:41Back came Big Camel, puffing and panting.
0:08:41 > 0:08:44"63!" Shouted all the children.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46"Little Camel is the winner!"
0:08:46 > 0:08:49Out in the desert, Tortoise smiled.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52"I don't think Big Camel will boast any more." He said.
0:08:52 > 0:08:54And he was quite right.
0:08:54 > 0:08:57Little Camel and Tortoise told Big Camel
0:08:57 > 0:09:01that they had cheated to teach him a lesson about always boasting.
0:09:01 > 0:09:06Big Camel was very sorry and promised to try not to boast again.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09They knew he would be a much better friend,
0:09:09 > 0:09:11so they promised never to cheat again.
0:09:11 > 0:09:14And they all played happily together.
0:09:14 > 0:09:16The End.
0:09:16 > 0:09:17What a great story!
0:09:17 > 0:09:21Little Camel helped Big Camel to learn not to boast, didn't she?
0:09:21 > 0:09:25Yes! And Tortoise helped too. By hiding in the desert.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27I really liked that story.
0:09:27 > 0:09:29Thanks, Driver Dan.
0:09:29 > 0:09:30Now it's your turn.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33Which bit did you like best?
0:09:33 > 0:09:36Come on, it's time to show me the story.
0:09:36 > 0:09:37We're in the desert.
0:09:37 > 0:09:39It's very hot here.
0:09:39 > 0:09:42I'm really hot!
0:09:42 > 0:09:44Look, everyone is here!
0:09:44 > 0:09:46- Hello, Big Camel!- Hello!
0:09:46 > 0:09:49Whoosh! Look at me go!
0:09:49 > 0:09:51We're being racing camels.
0:09:51 > 0:09:53- Look!- Me too!
0:09:53 > 0:09:56I'm crawling like a tortoise.
0:09:56 > 0:09:59I'm going really slowly.
0:09:59 > 0:10:01Now I'm pretending to be a stone.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04- Me too!- Hello!
0:10:04 > 0:10:08We're skipping with Big Camel and Little Camel.
0:10:08 > 0:10:09Skip, skip, skip!
0:10:09 > 0:10:12Well done! That was really good.
0:10:12 > 0:10:17I love stories with camels and the pictures of the desert!
0:10:17 > 0:10:19Follow me, everyone!
0:10:22 > 0:10:26Glad you enjoyed the story, everyone. But now it's time to go!
0:10:26 > 0:10:27All aboard!
0:10:27 > 0:10:30All aboard the story train!
0:10:31 > 0:10:34Bye, everyone. It's time to go.
0:10:34 > 0:10:39But let's come back soon, because we all love stories!
0:10:39 > 0:10:41Bye, Driver Dan! Bye!
0:10:48 > 0:10:50I like stories about rabbits.
0:10:50 > 0:10:53I like stories about great big sand castles.
0:10:53 > 0:10:57I like stories with happy endings!
