0:00:02 > 0:00:04Not the shrinking cap, Grandpa!
0:00:06 > 0:00:07Catch me if you can!
0:00:09 > 0:00:10Grandpa!
0:00:17 > 0:00:19No! Be careful!
0:00:25 > 0:00:26Grandpa, stop!
0:00:35 > 0:00:37Whoa!
0:00:47 > 0:00:49'It was Christmas Eve in Sunnysands
0:00:49 > 0:00:53'and we were going to have a special Christmas Eve supper.
0:00:53 > 0:00:57'Great Aunt Loretta was busy making stuffing
0:00:57 > 0:01:00'and Mum was busy writing a Christmas song.'
0:01:00 > 0:01:03I need to put lots of Christmassy things into it. Any ideas?
0:01:03 > 0:01:05How about stuffing?
0:01:05 > 0:01:06Right, OK, stuffing!
0:01:06 > 0:01:10- Mind your backs! - Ah, the Christmas tree!
0:01:10 > 0:01:12Brilliant, the Christmas tree, of course!
0:01:12 > 0:01:16Oh, Christmas! It's such a magical time, isn't it?
0:01:16 > 0:01:20Don't be silly, Grandpa. Here, stir my stuffing.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22I don't believe in this magic nonsense.
0:01:22 > 0:01:25You don't believe in the magic of Christmas?
0:01:25 > 0:01:27Huh! We'll soon see about that.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30'And off went Grandpa.'
0:01:30 > 0:01:32I mean, really!
0:01:32 > 0:01:37Christmas is all about magic! Elves and flying reindeer...
0:01:37 > 0:01:40- And Father Christmas bringing presents!- Quite.
0:01:40 > 0:01:41And fairies...
0:01:41 > 0:01:45'Oh, yes. Grandpa was going to teach Great Aunt Loretta
0:01:45 > 0:01:49'all about the magic of Christmas.'
0:01:50 > 0:01:52'Soon, our Christmas tree was up and it was...'
0:01:52 > 0:01:55Time for our trip to Miss Smiley's cafe!
0:01:55 > 0:02:00'We always go to Miss Smiley's on Christmas Eve at teatime.'
0:02:00 > 0:02:05I suppose YOU'LL be hoping for a magic Christmas cake, Grandpa!
0:02:05 > 0:02:09The only way to prove to Loretta that Christmas is a magical time
0:02:09 > 0:02:11is to try a little of my own.
0:02:11 > 0:02:13Not the shrinking cap, Grandpa!
0:02:15 > 0:02:16Catch me if you can!
0:02:16 > 0:02:20'But Grandpa was determined to try a little magic of his own.
0:02:20 > 0:02:23'Now, as you know, I'm the only one who knows
0:02:23 > 0:02:27'about Grandpa's magic shrinking cap and nobody else could find out.'
0:02:27 > 0:02:29Grandpa!
0:02:29 > 0:02:32'When he shrinks, everyone thinks he's gone for a little lie down.
0:02:32 > 0:02:36'When, in fact, he's getting up to all kinds of mischief.
0:02:36 > 0:02:40'He drives off in my car, he flies about in my plane
0:02:40 > 0:02:43'and he hides in all kinds of very small places.
0:02:43 > 0:02:47'Today, I had no idea where he was.'
0:02:48 > 0:02:50'Suddenly, I saw him.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52'But, just then, I heard...'
0:02:52 > 0:02:55Hello! Anybody home?
0:02:55 > 0:02:57'It was Mr Liker Biker!'
0:02:57 > 0:03:00'Mr Liker Biker is called Mr Liker Biker
0:03:00 > 0:03:03'because he's always saying things like...'
0:03:03 > 0:03:08Ooh! I like a saddle with comfy padding! Ooh!
0:03:08 > 0:03:11'He likes everything to do with bikes. Everything.
0:03:11 > 0:03:17'So, it was no surprise that his Christmas present to us was...'
0:03:17 > 0:03:19Ta-da!
0:03:19 > 0:03:23Oh! It's a Christmas wreath made from a bicycle wheel!
0:03:23 > 0:03:26'As everyone was admiring it, I saw Grandpa run in.
0:03:26 > 0:03:28'He jumped up onto the dresser.'
0:03:34 > 0:03:39Oh, I know... Why don't we put it up here, eh?
0:03:39 > 0:03:41Where you can all see it.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43Where's Grandpa?
0:03:43 > 0:03:46Oh, he's being a sulky socks and having a little lie down
0:03:46 > 0:03:50because I said I don't believe in the magic of Christmas.
0:03:50 > 0:03:54- Oh! But everybody believes in that! - HORN SOUNDS
0:03:55 > 0:03:59'Suddenly, Grandpa went bonkers with all the bells and parpers
0:03:59 > 0:04:03'and the wreath was jingling and jangling like crazy.'
0:04:03 > 0:04:05How does it do that?
0:04:05 > 0:04:09- It's brilliant! - That was you, Mr Liker Biker!
0:04:09 > 0:04:13- How did you do that? - It wasn't me! It was magic.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16- Oh, you're such a big tease! - I'm not!
0:04:16 > 0:04:17THEY ALL LAUGH
0:04:17 > 0:04:20'Everyone was so busy laughing
0:04:20 > 0:04:25'that they didn't see Grandpa jump off the shelf into my pocket.'
0:04:25 > 0:04:28Right, come on, or Miss Smiley won't have any cakes left.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31We'll see you later, Mr Liker Biker, for supper.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34- And the sing-song! - Ooh, I like a sing-song, I do.
0:04:35 > 0:04:39'So off we all went in campo to Miss Smiley's cafe.'
0:04:41 > 0:04:45'Miss Smiley is called Miss Smiley because she's always smiling.
0:04:45 > 0:04:49'And what's more, she makes the most delicious treats ever.
0:04:52 > 0:04:56'And today, she'd made Sunnysands Christmas cupcakes.'
0:04:57 > 0:05:02'Grandpa had jumped out of my pocket and was up on a shelf.'
0:05:02 > 0:05:06Mr Mentor, I've got an extra special surprise for you.
0:05:06 > 0:05:10- Wait till you hear what it is! - I'm all ears.
0:05:10 > 0:05:15'Mr Mentor the Inventor lives in the lighthouse in Sunnysands.
0:05:15 > 0:05:20'He's always inventing weird and wonderful things and, sometimes,
0:05:20 > 0:05:24'he even invents things that he doesn't even know he's invented!
0:05:25 > 0:05:29'He was very excited about his present from Miss Smiley.'
0:05:29 > 0:05:31- Ta-da!- Oh!
0:05:31 > 0:05:34What a spectacular Christmas pudding!
0:05:34 > 0:05:37It's absolumpley wonderbubble.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40'Mr Mentor invents words as well as things.'
0:05:40 > 0:05:42Thank you so much, Miss Smiley.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44I'll bring it with me this evening for supper.
0:05:44 > 0:05:48'I was the only one who saw what Grandpa did next.
0:05:48 > 0:05:50'He jumped into the pudding!'
0:05:50 > 0:05:53Christmas is such a magical time, isn't it?
0:05:53 > 0:05:57Oh, not someone else going on about magic!
0:05:57 > 0:06:01It is, Mr Mentor. I'm even writing a song about the magic of Christmas.
0:06:01 > 0:06:05I'm trying to put in lots of Sunnysands Christmassy things.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07I've got, um...
0:06:07 > 0:06:11- Stuffing!- Yes. And a tree. And, oh, a wreath that ting-a-lings!
0:06:11 > 0:06:13And a pudding that sings!
0:06:15 > 0:06:17# La-la-la-la-la-la! #
0:06:17 > 0:06:19It's a magical pudding!
0:06:19 > 0:06:22Nonsense! That was you, Mr Mentor.
0:06:22 > 0:06:26You're always inventing things that talk and sing.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28I suppose I am, without even knowing it.
0:06:28 > 0:06:31And now I've invented a singing pudding!
0:06:31 > 0:06:33You want to come to the lighthouse
0:06:33 > 0:06:38and see all the other remarkabubble things I've invented, Loretta.
0:06:38 > 0:06:41I'll come right away, Mr Mentor!
0:06:41 > 0:06:43'Before I could do anything,
0:06:43 > 0:06:47'Grandpa went off to the lighthouse in Mr Mentor's pudding.'
0:06:52 > 0:06:53'While Great Aunt Loretta
0:06:53 > 0:06:56'was admiring Mr Mentor's Christmas inventions,
0:06:56 > 0:07:00'Grandpa, being Grandpa, had a plan.'
0:07:00 > 0:07:05Oh! That's a lovely little Santa you've invented there, Mr Mentor.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08- What does he do?- Well, at the moment, I'm not quite sure.
0:07:08 > 0:07:12But I am sure that, whenever it does what it's supposed to do,
0:07:12 > 0:07:15- it will be remarkabubble. - It will be!
0:07:15 > 0:07:17I've just got to pop over
0:07:17 > 0:07:21to Mr Whoops's shop to get a few last-minute bits and pieces.
0:07:21 > 0:07:24I'll see you for supper, tonight!
0:07:26 > 0:07:28'At that moment, Grandpa made his way
0:07:28 > 0:07:33'towards the little Santa in the sleigh. He was up to something!
0:07:33 > 0:07:36'Of course, I didn't know WHAT Grandpa was up to,
0:07:36 > 0:07:40'but I needed to get to the lighthouse to rescue him!'
0:07:40 > 0:07:43Oh, look at our fairy. She's so old and tatty.
0:07:43 > 0:07:47We really need a new fairy, Dad, we really do.
0:07:47 > 0:07:51Hey! Let's ask Mr Mentor to invent us a new fairy!
0:07:51 > 0:07:55If Mr Mentor invents a fairy, there's no knowing what it might do.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58But Mr Whoops is bound to have fairies in his toy shop.
0:07:58 > 0:08:01Let's go to Mr Whoops's!
0:08:01 > 0:08:03'So, off we went to Mr Whoops's shop
0:08:03 > 0:08:06'and, while Jemima was choosing a fairy,
0:08:06 > 0:08:09'Great Aunt Loretta was choosing wrapping paper.
0:08:09 > 0:08:11'And guess who else was there.'
0:08:11 > 0:08:12This is rubbish!
0:08:12 > 0:08:18'Floyd! He goes to my school and he thinks everything is rubbish.'
0:08:18 > 0:08:22You can't have Christmas without fairies, now, can you?
0:08:22 > 0:08:24It's a magical time!
0:08:24 > 0:08:29Oh, you're into this Christmas magic stuff too, Mr Whoops?
0:08:29 > 0:08:31Of course I am!
0:08:31 > 0:08:33I'm not - it's rubbish!
0:08:33 > 0:08:35'I didn't really want to be here.
0:08:35 > 0:08:40'I wanted to be in the lighthouse, rescuing Grandpa.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42'But I needn't have worried.
0:08:42 > 0:08:47'Grandpa knew exactly how to escape from the lighthouse - on a sleigh!'
0:08:47 > 0:08:51Remarkabubble, just as I thought! A flying sleigh!
0:08:55 > 0:08:57I don't believe in any of that magic stuff.
0:08:57 > 0:09:02Fairies, elves! And as for Santa, flying on a sleigh?
0:09:02 > 0:09:03HE SCOFFS
0:09:03 > 0:09:06'But at that very moment, in Santa flew.'
0:09:06 > 0:09:09Ho! Ho! Ho!
0:09:09 > 0:09:10Oof!
0:09:10 > 0:09:14'Only it wasn't Santa, of course. It was Grandpa.'
0:09:14 > 0:09:15That's amazing!
0:09:15 > 0:09:18'He can never resist a trip to Mr Whoops's shop.
0:09:18 > 0:09:20'And, luckily, I was there.'
0:09:22 > 0:09:24Now, that looks like magic to me.
0:09:24 > 0:09:28Nonsense. It's one of Mr Mentor's inventions.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30He said he'd do something remarkabubble,
0:09:30 > 0:09:34and he just has. He'll be wondering where it's gone.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36Bye!
0:09:36 > 0:09:39'Jemima was just about to pick up Grandpa!'
0:09:39 > 0:09:44Don't! I-I-I mean, hurry, you haven't chosen a fairy yet.
0:09:44 > 0:09:46'Could Grandpa change Floyd's mind?'
0:09:46 > 0:09:47Psst!
0:09:49 > 0:09:51Magic!
0:09:51 > 0:09:54'Oh, yes!
0:09:54 > 0:09:58'I brought the sleigh home to give back to Mr Mentor later.'
0:09:58 > 0:10:02- Let's put the fairy on the tree! - And I'll wake up Grandpa.- No!
0:10:02 > 0:10:05I... Grandpa was really tired.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07We should wait till supper to wake him up.
0:10:07 > 0:10:12Oh, if you say so, Jason. Now, I must add Santa to my song.
0:10:12 > 0:10:15He's the most magical thing about Christmas, isn't he?
0:10:15 > 0:10:18Magic this, magic that. Ha!
0:10:23 > 0:10:26Hurry up and get back in your clothes, Grandpa!
0:10:26 > 0:10:29But we haven't managed to persuade Loretta
0:10:29 > 0:10:34that Christmas is magical yet. I've got another idea. The fairy...
0:10:34 > 0:10:39'While Grandpa put his next plan into action, everyone arrived.
0:10:39 > 0:10:42'We were just waiting for Great Aunt Loretta.'
0:10:42 > 0:10:45Grandpa, have you stopped being a sulky socks
0:10:45 > 0:10:50about all that magic nonsense? Wake up. It's time for supper.
0:10:50 > 0:10:51Oh, goody goody.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54Who said, "Oh, goody, goody"?
0:10:54 > 0:10:59I did. I'm the magical Christmas fairy.
0:10:59 > 0:11:01Don't be frightened.
0:11:01 > 0:11:06I'm a good fairy. I make all the magic happen.
0:11:09 > 0:11:13I don't believe in all that...magic.
0:11:13 > 0:11:17I'm more down-to-earth about Christmas, I am.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20I do things like stuffing. You should try my stuffing.
0:11:20 > 0:11:23- Yum.- It is!
0:11:23 > 0:11:25But now I've seen you,
0:11:25 > 0:11:29I think Christmas might be a magical time after all.
0:11:31 > 0:11:33What's the matter, Loretta?
0:11:33 > 0:11:38- Nothing!- Have a little sit down. - I'm fine!
0:11:38 > 0:11:40I've just been...sprinkled,
0:11:40 > 0:11:44with a bit of...Christmas magic, that's all.
0:11:44 > 0:11:47THEY ALL FUSS OVER LORETTA
0:11:47 > 0:11:50'Very speedily, Grandpa got out of the fairy dress
0:11:50 > 0:11:52'and jumped down from the tree.
0:11:52 > 0:11:56'He whipped off his shrinking cap and came back to his normal size.'
0:11:56 > 0:12:00We convinced Loretta about Christmas magic in the nick of time, Jason.
0:12:00 > 0:12:04We did, Grandpa, even if it did mean you had to be a fairy!
0:12:04 > 0:12:06Teamwork, I call it!
0:12:06 > 0:12:07Teamwork!
0:12:07 > 0:12:10THEY LAUGH
0:12:13 > 0:12:17- Oh, Grandpa!- Just in time to sing my Christmas song.
0:12:20 > 0:12:24ALL: # It's Christmas in Sunnysands
