0:00:37 > 0:00:40# All aboard the story train
0:00:40 > 0:00:44# All aboard the story train! #
0:00:47 > 0:00:49Twinkle? Have you spotted someone?
0:00:49 > 0:00:51I can't see who it is. Can you?
0:00:53 > 0:00:55'It's someone green.
0:00:55 > 0:00:57'And they're bouncing.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59BOTH: 'It's Loopy!'
0:00:59 > 0:01:02It is! Let's go and say hello.
0:01:06 > 0:01:08Hi, Loopy! That looks fun.
0:01:08 > 0:01:10Ha, ha! Hi, Driver Dan!
0:01:10 > 0:01:13Ha, ha! I'm bouncing, ha, ha!
0:01:13 > 0:01:15Yes, so I see.
0:01:15 > 0:01:21- I'm bouncing into space! Whoosh! - Into space, eh? Like an astronaut?
0:01:21 > 0:01:24Yeah. I'm Loopy the astronaut.
0:01:24 > 0:01:26Blast off!
0:01:26 > 0:01:29I'd love to really go into space, Driver Dan.
0:01:29 > 0:01:31- Me too.- Oh, I know!
0:01:31 > 0:01:33Huh?
0:01:33 > 0:01:36Zoom! Zoom, zoom, zoom!
0:01:36 > 0:01:38Zoom!
0:01:38 > 0:01:42I'm an astronaut in my space rocket, flying round the moon. Ha, ha!
0:01:42 > 0:01:45And now I'm landing on a strange planet.
0:01:45 > 0:01:48What's this? Is it a space ship?
0:01:48 > 0:01:50Yes, it's the story space ship.
0:01:50 > 0:01:55I think it's time we blasted off to explore some more strange planets.
0:01:55 > 0:01:59Yeah! Ready for blast off!
0:02:01 > 0:02:04All aboard the story space ship.
0:02:04 > 0:02:06'All aboard the story space ship.'
0:02:14 > 0:02:20Twinkle has spotted someone up ahead. Who do you think it might be?
0:02:20 > 0:02:23'Look, stripy legs.
0:02:23 > 0:02:26- 'It must be Milly and Lilly.- Yeah!'
0:02:28 > 0:02:31Well done! It's Milly and Lilly.
0:02:31 > 0:02:33Hello, what are you painting?
0:02:33 > 0:02:37Hello, Driver Dan. We're not really sure.
0:02:37 > 0:02:42- We want it to be something amazing. - But we can't think of anything.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45- Whoa!- Zoom, zoom! I'm an astronaut
0:02:45 > 0:02:48zooming through space in my rocket. Whoosh!
0:02:48 > 0:02:53- Amazing.- Yes, that is amazing. And d'you know what?
0:02:53 > 0:02:55It would make...
0:02:55 > 0:02:57BOTH: An amazing painting!
0:02:57 > 0:03:00Let's paint an astronaut flying through space.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03- Can you help us, Loopy? - Ho, ho! Yes, please!
0:03:03 > 0:03:07- What do you want me to do? - You can tell us all about space.
0:03:07 > 0:03:10Well, space is really big,
0:03:10 > 0:03:15and big round moons like this.
0:03:15 > 0:03:20There are hundreds and thousands of sparkly stars. Phew.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23Being an astronaut is hard work.
0:03:23 > 0:03:25What does the rocket look like?
0:03:25 > 0:03:29Well, it's pointy, with wings, and has big engines
0:03:29 > 0:03:32which blast it up into space.
0:03:32 > 0:03:36Phew. Then the astronaut begins the countdown.
0:03:36 > 0:03:395...4...3...2...1. Blast off!
0:03:39 > 0:03:43The rocket shoots off into space. Urgh...
0:03:43 > 0:03:45Oh, dear. Loopy looks tired.
0:03:45 > 0:03:49'Loopy's tired from all that skating.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52'He's been skating lots and lots.'
0:03:52 > 0:03:54You did really well, Loopy.
0:03:54 > 0:04:01- You really helped Milly and Lilly. - Look at our painting.- Yes!- Amazing.
0:04:01 > 0:04:04- What do you think, Loopy? - I'm really tired.
0:04:04 > 0:04:07Do you like our painting, Loopy?
0:04:07 > 0:04:09LOOPY YAWNS
0:04:09 > 0:04:12I don't think he likes our painting.
0:04:12 > 0:04:14I'm sure he does, really.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16I think it's a wonderful painting.
0:04:16 > 0:04:19- Oh, hi, Tallulah.- Hello, Driver Dan.
0:04:19 > 0:04:23I'm taking smiley photos today. Smile!
0:04:23 > 0:04:25Great photo.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28Your turn, Loopy. Smile!
0:04:28 > 0:04:30Eh? Oh-h-h.
0:04:30 > 0:04:34Oh, Loopy. What's happened to your smile?
0:04:34 > 0:04:39We don't know. He doesn't even seem to like our painting very much.
0:04:39 > 0:04:42- You're just a bit tired, aren't you, Loopy?- Yeah.
0:04:42 > 0:04:46I'm so tired, I can't even pretend to be an astronaut any more.
0:04:46 > 0:04:50Oh, dear. You can't be an astronaut if you're too tired.
0:04:50 > 0:04:52I've got an idea.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01Oh, don't do that, Tallulah! I like the painting!
0:05:01 > 0:05:04Don't worry, Loopy. Tallulah has had an idea.
0:05:04 > 0:05:09Yes, Loopy. Come behind here and look through this hole.
0:05:09 > 0:05:12- Huh?- Smile!
0:05:12 > 0:05:16Come on, Loopy. You can smile better than that.
0:05:18 > 0:05:20Ha, ha, ha!
0:05:20 > 0:05:24That's my smiliest picture yet.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27Ha, ha, ha, ha! It's me in a rocket!
0:05:27 > 0:05:30Loopy the astronaut! Ha, ha! Thanks, everyone!
0:05:30 > 0:05:33Well done, all of you.
0:05:33 > 0:05:37After all that hard work, I think it's time for a well-deserved rest.
0:05:37 > 0:05:41- In Story Corner.- ALL: Hooray!
0:05:41 > 0:05:44We're all hooked up, Twinkle. Are we ready to go?
0:05:44 > 0:05:46TWINKLE TWITTERS
0:05:46 > 0:05:49Are you ready too? Then let's go!
0:05:49 > 0:05:52'All aboard the Story Train!
0:05:52 > 0:05:56- 'We're going to have a story! - Maybe about space.
0:05:56 > 0:06:00- 'I hope it's about aliens.- Yeah!'
0:06:09 > 0:06:14- Story time!- Story corner! - Who's ready for a story, then?
0:06:14 > 0:06:16I am. I'm not tired any more.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19I was thinking maybe... A-ha!
0:06:19 > 0:06:24I know just the book! Is everyone settled down and ready to listen?
0:06:24 > 0:06:27- Ready, Dan!- Yes. Story time!
0:06:27 > 0:06:32- And all of you? Sitting down comfy and ready to listen?- 'Ready, Dan.'
0:06:32 > 0:06:36This story is called But The Cat Just Sat.
0:06:36 > 0:06:40It was written by Allan Plenderleith with pictures by Garry Parsons.
0:06:40 > 0:06:44Once there was an astronaut, sitting in her rocket,
0:06:44 > 0:06:48ready to zoom into space. She checked her supplies and controls,
0:06:48 > 0:06:51and the countdown to lift off began.
0:06:51 > 0:06:53100...99...98...
0:06:53 > 0:06:56But just then, the astronaut heard a noise.
0:06:56 > 0:07:01It was coming from the launch pad. "Meow," it went.
0:07:01 > 0:07:05Out leapt the astronaut. A cat was sitting beneath the rocket.
0:07:05 > 0:07:10On went the countdown. 85...84...83...
0:07:10 > 0:07:13"Shoo! Shoo!" shouted the astronaut, anxiously.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16But the cat just sat.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19Ooh. What's the astronaut going to do?
0:07:19 > 0:07:21The countdown continued.
0:07:21 > 0:07:2469...68...67...
0:07:24 > 0:07:29The astronaut tried to surprise the cat. "Boo!" She yelled, jumping out.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31But the cat just sat.
0:07:31 > 0:07:3452...51...50...
0:07:34 > 0:07:38The astronaut tried every trick she could think of.
0:07:38 > 0:07:42Crazy dancing, singing loudly, turning cartwheels.
0:07:42 > 0:07:45But the cat just sat.
0:07:45 > 0:07:48The astronaut tried to tempt it with a saucer of milk,
0:07:48 > 0:07:52a big tasty fish. She even pretended to be a dog.
0:07:52 > 0:07:57But the cat just sat. And all the while, the countdown continued.
0:07:57 > 0:08:0137...36...35...
0:08:01 > 0:08:04At last, the astronaut sat down on the runway
0:08:04 > 0:08:06with her head in her hands.
0:08:06 > 0:08:10"I give up," she said, hopelessly. "I won't be able to take off.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12"There's nothing I can do!"
0:08:12 > 0:08:16But just at that moment, the cat got up, strolled over,
0:08:16 > 0:08:19and settled comfortably on the astronaut's lap.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22The cat looked at the astronaut and purred.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25The astronaut looked at the cat and smiled.
0:08:25 > 0:08:28"I've got the answer," chuckled the astronaut.
0:08:28 > 0:08:31I wonder what she's going to do?
0:08:31 > 0:08:34Once there was an astronaut sitting in her rocket,
0:08:34 > 0:08:36ready to zoom into space.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39She checked her supplies and controls,
0:08:39 > 0:08:42and the countdown to lift off began.
0:08:42 > 0:08:445...4...3...2...1...
0:08:44 > 0:08:47Blast off! The rocket whooshed away.
0:08:47 > 0:08:51Fire fizzed, sparks whizzed.
0:08:51 > 0:08:54The astronaut gazed in wonder at the starry sky.
0:08:54 > 0:08:58- And the cat just sat. - Ha, ha, ha!
0:08:58 > 0:09:01The end. Wasn't that a great story?
0:09:01 > 0:09:03That cat was so sweet.
0:09:03 > 0:09:07I liked the part when they blasted off into space. Ha, ha!
0:09:07 > 0:09:11And now it's your turn. Which bit did you like best?
0:09:11 > 0:09:14Come on, it's time to show me the story.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17I'm a cat.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20Meow. I'm washing my whiskers.
0:09:20 > 0:09:23Boo! The cat won't move.
0:09:24 > 0:09:28Pee-yew. That fish really smells!
0:09:28 > 0:09:32I'm pretending to be a dog. Woof, woof!
0:09:32 > 0:09:37Look at me! Let's do a silly dance!
0:09:37 > 0:09:39Woo-hoo, woo-hoo!
0:09:39 > 0:09:43Oh, no. The cat just won't move.
0:09:43 > 0:09:46Get ready for blast off!
0:09:46 > 0:09:48Here we go...
0:09:48 > 0:09:51Blast off! Whoosh!
0:09:51 > 0:09:53Well done, that was really good!
0:09:53 > 0:09:56The astronaut took the cat with her
0:09:56 > 0:09:58and blasted off into space.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01I'd love to really go into space one day, like the cat!
0:10:01 > 0:10:06I'm going to take a photo tonight of the moon, in the starry sky.
0:10:06 > 0:10:08Or even a rocket.
0:10:08 > 0:10:12Rockets! Yeah! With astronauts inside. Whoosh!
0:10:12 > 0:10:16It's time we zoomed off... Back to the Story Train.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18Follow me, everyone. Whoosh!
0:10:18 > 0:10:20- Zoom!- Zoom!
0:10:22 > 0:10:25Yes, it's time to go. All aboard!
0:10:25 > 0:10:29'All aboard the Story Train.'
0:10:29 > 0:10:32Bye, everyone. It's time to go.
0:10:32 > 0:10:36But let's come back soon, because we all love stories!
0:10:36 > 0:10:39- 'Bye, Driver Dan.- Bye!'
0:10:47 > 0:10:50'I like stories about dinosaurs.
0:10:50 > 0:10:52'I like stories that go "Boo!"
0:10:52 > 0:10:57'My favourites are intergalactic stories.'
