0:00:31 > 0:00:34I'm trying to find an invention that makes candy floss.
0:00:34 > 0:00:37What? But, Ed, why?
0:00:37 > 0:00:43- Well, I read in Mmmm magazine that Fiona Bruce loves candy floss.- So?

0:01:17 > 0:01:19John! Oh, no.
0:01:21 > 0:01:25Wow, would you believe it? Look, there's a candy floss making machine
0:01:25 > 0:01:27from Emilia and Bryony in Oxfordshire.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30- It's called the Flosserama, that's great.- Ha-ha-ha, its pink.
0:01:30 > 0:01:32Yes, I know it's pink.
0:01:32 > 0:01:36So is candy floss, isn't it? And Fiona Bruce loves the candy floss.
0:01:36 > 0:01:38- Oh, pink.- Come on, let's go.
0:01:38 > 0:01:42- What about John?- Oh, John, yes. Well, Invisible John's all right

0:02:16 > 0:02:19Yes, yes, I think something has gone wrong.
0:02:26 > 0:02:30Let's get on with finding out why you want to invent the Flosserama.
0:02:30 > 0:02:32So, we've got the brainstorm helmets right here.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35That's right, I said brainstorm helmets.
0:02:35 > 0:02:37You see, normally we have one.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40But we've been working round the clock to make another one.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43Here it is, the brainstorm helmet two.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45It's got noodles in it.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48- No, no, no.- It's wiring.
0:02:48 > 0:02:49It's a special organic wiring.
0:02:49 > 0:02:51(I told you to wash that up properly.)
0:02:51 > 0:02:54Go on then, you can put it on.
0:02:54 > 0:02:58Bryony, pop that on. That's nice.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00OK, now, look into my eyes and tell me,
0:03:00 > 0:03:03why do you want to invent the Flosserama?
0:03:03 > 0:03:06We want to invent the Flosserama,
0:03:06 > 0:03:11a machine that spins when we sit in it and makes candy floss.
0:03:11 > 0:03:17The Flosserama has roller-coaster seats and plays our favourite music
0:03:17 > 0:03:21so we can invite our friends for a candy floss party.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26This candy floss party of yours, where do you want to have it?
0:03:26 > 0:03:28- The Wildlife Park.- Oh, of course.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30Where else? And when do you want it?
0:03:30 > 0:03:32In three days cos all our friends are coming.
0:03:32 > 0:03:34Three days?!
0:03:34 > 0:03:35Oh, noss!
0:03:35 > 0:03:39Yeah, to be fair, we've made all the other inventions in three days.

0:03:42 > 0:03:44- Noss.- The Falconator?

0:03:45 > 0:03:48- The Icecalator?- Noss. - The Aqua Drifters.- Noss.
0:03:48 > 0:03:50- Do you even know why we're here? - Noss.
0:03:50 > 0:03:54- We're here to make a spinning candy floss machine!- Oh, wow!
0:03:54 > 0:03:56Sorry about this, we do know what we're doing.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59I'll just take the helmets back and then we'll be off.

0:04:01 > 0:04:03Oh, I thought this Leotard was a bit tight.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11OK, Oucho, we got three days to build this Flosserama
0:04:11 > 0:04:14and then I can send Fiona Bruce a big box of candy floss.

0:04:23 > 0:04:26Anyway, look, I've made this prototype, OK?
0:04:26 > 0:04:28This is Emilia and this is Bryony.

0:04:30 > 0:04:35I didn't turn them into eggs. I'm not an evil wizard!

0:04:36 > 0:04:39You imagine it's them!
0:04:39 > 0:04:42- Oh, OK.- Right, OK, so this is Emilia, this is Bryony.
0:04:42 > 0:04:45So they'll be sitting on the Flosserama like that.
0:04:45 > 0:04:48Then this spinning top is the Flosserama.
0:04:48 > 0:04:50So spin it round.
0:04:50 > 0:04:52Oh, noss! Help!
0:04:52 > 0:04:54Help!
0:04:54 > 0:04:58It's all right, it's all right! No, they weren't real people, were they?
0:04:58 > 0:05:00Remember they were eggs. It's fine.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03We can't have that happening to real people though, can we?
0:05:03 > 0:05:05Flying off like that.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07We need them to balance on the Flosserama.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09I know, I'll ask the internet.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11He might know how to build the whole thing.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18That's just typical.
0:05:20 > 0:05:21- Hello?- Hi, it's Ed.
0:05:21 > 0:05:24I've given you all the information on Fiona Bruce.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26There's no more. You've got it all, OK?
0:05:26 > 0:05:28No, a different question.
0:05:28 > 0:05:30I'm trying to make a storm in a teacup!
0:05:30 > 0:05:32It's very simple. Very quick question.
0:05:32 > 0:05:34All right, just get on with it.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36Do you know how to build a Flosserama?
0:05:36 > 0:05:39- A floss-a-what?- A machine that spins and makes candy floss.
0:05:39 > 0:05:42And two girls need to balance on it as it spins
0:05:42 > 0:05:45but I don't know anything about how to make things balance or spin.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47Or how to make candy floss.
0:05:47 > 0:05:49That's more than one simple question.
0:05:49 > 0:05:52I know, but Fiona loves candy floss and I'm desperate.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55I mean, desperate to learn more about science
0:05:55 > 0:05:57so I can make Emilia and Bryony's dream come true.
0:05:57 > 0:06:01You wouldn't want to let them down, would you? And disappoint them.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03I'll disappoint you in a minute!
0:06:03 > 0:06:05Look, if you want an object to balance,
0:06:05 > 0:06:07you must first find its centre of gravity.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10The centre of gravity is the point in the whole shape
0:06:10 > 0:06:13on which it will balance. Imagine a plate.
0:06:13 > 0:06:15Oh! Ouch!
0:06:15 > 0:06:19Now, on a plate, the centre of gravity is in the middle.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22But if you add a weight to the surface, like a sandwich,
0:06:22 > 0:06:25the centre of gravity changes.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28So, if we put Emilia and Bryony on the Flosserama,
0:06:28 > 0:06:31then the centre of gravity won't be in the middle?
0:06:31 > 0:06:34Well, if the girls are the same weight and the same height,
0:06:34 > 0:06:36you could place one of them on one side of the centre
0:06:36 > 0:06:38and the other girl directly opposite
0:06:38 > 0:06:41at the same distance from the centre, and then they will balance.
0:06:41 > 0:06:45Brilliant. I've got one more question about spinning...
0:06:45 > 0:06:47OUCHO SPEAKS CACTINIAN
0:06:48 > 0:06:52Hello, the internet? Internet, can you hear me?
0:06:52 > 0:06:54- You've broken the internet. - Oh, noss!
0:06:54 > 0:06:57Well at least we know how to make things balance.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59And how hard can it be to make things spin?
0:06:59 > 0:07:02I think we've got enough information to build a Fionarama.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04A Flosserama!
0:07:04 > 0:07:06Oh, the Flosserama, yes.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17Now that is what I call a spanner!
0:07:17 > 0:07:22And that is what I call an invention. Emilia! Bryony!

0:07:33 > 0:07:35- Really excited.- Yeah?
0:07:35 > 0:07:37Good. You should be because,
0:07:37 > 0:07:39when me and Oucho first heard about your invention,
0:07:39 > 0:07:43we thought, "That sounds impossible. It could never be done."
0:07:43 > 0:07:46But it has been done. We built it. Behold your Flosserama.
0:07:48 > 0:07:50- First impressions?- That's not pink.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53OK, well it's not pink. We know. We'll paint that up.
0:07:53 > 0:07:56There's a flamingo round there somewhere, you'll like that.
0:07:56 > 0:07:59- It's rubbish.- I don't think so.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02What you don't realise, right, these here, they're bikes.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04We stuck them together with this frame.
0:08:04 > 0:08:07I know it looks a bit odd but you wanted it spinning round
0:08:07 > 0:08:10and round, so if you get on these and cycle, it will.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13You'll be spinning. You're probably scared of it, aren't you?
0:08:13 > 0:08:15You think it won't balance. But it does.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18Get on, you'll see. You won't hurt yourselves.
0:08:18 > 0:08:19Get on that thing!
0:08:19 > 0:08:22Now, when you cycle, there's some pink goo in the middle here.

0:10:44 > 0:10:46We've made a prototype with two bikes,

0:11:21 > 0:11:23OUCHO SPEAKS CACTINIAN
0:11:23 > 0:11:26Yeah, we knew that already, Einstein. Sorry, Billy, carry on.
0:11:26 > 0:11:30When the wheels go round, they move easily in one direction,
0:11:30 > 0:11:32the direction they roll in, like this.
0:11:34 > 0:11:38But it sounds to me like you put the wheels in the wrong place.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40To make the Flosserama spin,
0:11:40 > 0:11:44you need to make sure the wheels are at right angles to the radius.
0:11:44 > 0:11:48Woah, woah, woah, there, cowboy. What are you talking about?
0:11:48 > 0:11:49Right angles? Radius?

0:11:53 > 0:11:55one of my best sellers.
0:11:55 > 0:11:59As with all my Lazy Susans, it's got the centre point of gravity
0:11:59 > 0:12:01marked here in the middle.
0:12:01 > 0:12:06I'm going to draw a straight line out from the centre.
0:12:06 > 0:12:09This is called the radius.
0:12:09 > 0:12:14If this was your Flosserama, the wheels would need to be attached
0:12:14 > 0:12:18on the radius at right angles to the centre, like this.
0:12:18 > 0:12:21That way, your Flosserama will spin.

0:18:42 > 0:18:44Well, of course it's got holes in it!
0:18:44 > 0:18:48To make candy floss you need a bowl with small holes in it.

0:19:02 > 0:19:05The bowl then turns really, really fast.

0:21:31 > 0:21:34Well, it's very important, because it's the same consistency

0:24:07 > 0:24:10# So we had a cup of tea and a bit of a think
0:24:10 > 0:24:13# Billy had the answer He's never failed us
0:24:13 > 0:24:17# He said, "Put the wheels on at right angles to the radius"

0:24:20 > 0:24:23# Surely we'd ironed out the final wrangles
