0:00:01 > 0:00:03Not the shrinking cap, Grandpa!
0:00:05 > 0:00:06Catch me if you can!
0:00:08 > 0:00:10Grandpa!
0:00:16 > 0:00:18No! Be careful!
0:00:24 > 0:00:25Grandpa, stop!
0:00:34 > 0:00:36Whoa-ah...
0:00:36 > 0:00:37CRASH!
0:00:46 > 0:00:49He pressed a button and an enormous tennis racket
0:00:49 > 0:00:51sprung out of his spaceship...
0:00:51 > 0:00:55'Grandpa was reading a Captain Dumbletwit story.
0:00:55 > 0:00:58'He was going very fast because any minute
0:00:58 > 0:01:01'Mum would start up again on her latest hobby.'
0:01:01 > 0:01:04SHE PLAYS TRUMPET BADLY
0:01:04 > 0:01:06'Mum's always taking up new hobbies.
0:01:06 > 0:01:08'One week it's karate,
0:01:08 > 0:01:10'then it's salsa dancing,
0:01:10 > 0:01:13'then it's cake decorating...
0:01:14 > 0:01:17'..the ukulele,
0:01:17 > 0:01:18'knitting...
0:01:23 > 0:01:25'..opera singing...'
0:01:25 > 0:01:27# Ah-ah-ah-AHH! #
0:01:27 > 0:01:30'..and now, this.'
0:01:30 > 0:01:33SHE PLAYS TRUMPET BADLY
0:01:33 > 0:01:39'Yes, Mum was learning to play...
0:01:39 > 0:01:43'It was making our ears hurt. Even Beowulf's!'
0:01:43 > 0:01:46I don't know why Mum chose the trumpet.
0:01:46 > 0:01:50There are loads of instruments much easier to play -
0:01:50 > 0:01:52triangles, tambourines, maracas...
0:01:52 > 0:01:56THEY SHAKE MARACAS RHYTHMICALLY
0:01:59 > 0:02:04Ahhh...! Oh! It's a good job I'm going out this afternoon.
0:02:04 > 0:02:08'Grandpa was meeting his friends at the Young At Heart Club.
0:02:08 > 0:02:12'Each month they meet at Miss Smiley's cafe for ice cream,
0:02:12 > 0:02:16'and a sing-song with Mr Whoops. But today there was a problem.'
0:02:16 > 0:02:18Hello. It's Miss Smiley here.
0:02:18 > 0:02:22I've got a bit of a problem and I was wondering if you can help.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24I'll try...
0:02:24 > 0:02:28Must be time to go... I wonder what we'll sing today!
0:02:28 > 0:02:33# Sunnysands, Sunnysands it's a great place to be... #
0:02:33 > 0:02:37Bad news, I'm afraid. Mr Whoops fell over his keyboard and broke it,
0:02:37 > 0:02:42so he can't play for the sing-song. But the good news is...
0:02:42 > 0:02:44wait for it...
0:02:44 > 0:02:50Miss Smiley has asked me to play instead! On the trumpet!
0:02:51 > 0:02:56You'll have to come too, Jason. We'll take all the instruments,
0:02:56 > 0:02:58in case anyone wants to join in!
0:02:58 > 0:03:02Actually, I don't think I'm up to the Young At Hearts today.
0:03:02 > 0:03:05I'm feeling a bit tired, you know.
0:03:05 > 0:03:09Oh, no, Grandpa. What a shame! And you so love your sing-song!
0:03:09 > 0:03:14Get ready, Jason. I'll put some lipstick on and then we'll go.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17Grandpa, you've got to come. Mum will need our help!
0:03:17 > 0:03:23Couldn't agree more. And I'll be a lot more help to her if I'm small...
0:03:23 > 0:03:27Not the shrinking cap, Grandpa!
0:03:29 > 0:03:32Catch me if you can!
0:03:32 > 0:03:35'You know when Grandpa shrinks,
0:03:35 > 0:03:38'he can get up to all kinds of magical things.'
0:03:42 > 0:03:45'He can get into my car and make it go...'
0:03:48 > 0:03:52'..or he can just run for all he's worth.
0:03:52 > 0:03:55'I couldn't find Grandpa anywhere.'
0:03:55 > 0:03:59Don't forget the instruments, Jason. Where's Grandpa?
0:03:59 > 0:04:01Gone for a little lie-down, I expect.
0:04:01 > 0:04:05'That's what everyone thinks when Grandpa goes missing.
0:04:05 > 0:04:08'They don't know about the shrinking cap.'
0:04:11 > 0:04:16'So we got into Campo and set off for Miss Smiley's cafe,
0:04:16 > 0:04:21- 'and Mum said...'- I've never played the trumpet in public.
0:04:21 > 0:04:25- I'm so excited!- '..and I said, "Aren't you nervous?" '
0:04:25 > 0:04:31- 'And Mum said...'- Oh! No... Such a pity Grandpa can't make it.
0:04:31 > 0:04:35Poor thing. He spends so much time stuck indoors!
0:04:35 > 0:04:39'But he didn't plan to be indoors today. I'm sure he was on his way!
0:04:39 > 0:04:42'I just didn't know how.'
0:04:45 > 0:04:47'Soon we arrived at Miss Smiley's cafe,
0:04:47 > 0:04:51'which, as you know, is the best cafe in the world!
0:04:52 > 0:04:57'The Young At Hearts were just finishing their ice-cream sundaes
0:04:57 > 0:04:59'and were ready for their sing-song.'
0:04:59 > 0:05:01TRUMPET BLASTS
0:05:01 > 0:05:04'Mum was warming up in the toilet.'
0:05:04 > 0:05:06- Do you think she's all right?- Yes.
0:05:06 > 0:05:10- Just doing some last-minute practice.- Oh, of course.
0:05:10 > 0:05:14Oh, won't be long now! I promise.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19Perhaps I better hurry her up.
0:05:19 > 0:05:24'I was wondering where Grandpa was. But I didn't have to wonder long.'
0:05:24 > 0:05:26MARACAS SHAKE
0:05:26 > 0:05:29'He was in the instrument box, playing the maracas!
0:05:29 > 0:05:31'I pretended it was me.'
0:05:31 > 0:05:34MARACAS SHAKE
0:05:34 > 0:05:38'I quickly took the box behind the curtains
0:05:38 > 0:05:39'and opened it up.'
0:05:41 > 0:05:43Oh! Thank goodness it's you.
0:05:43 > 0:05:47It was getting stuffy in there! How's it going?
0:05:47 > 0:05:48Not very well.
0:05:48 > 0:05:51Mum's making strange noises in the toilet.
0:05:51 > 0:05:54You can't keep the Young At Hearts waiting!
0:05:54 > 0:05:58- You'll have to start the sing-song yourself.- ME?!
0:05:59 > 0:06:03Before I knew it, I was on the stage, about to sing.
0:06:03 > 0:06:09# Sunnysands, Sunnysands it's a great place to be
0:06:09 > 0:06:14# It's sunny and it's sandy and it's right by the sea
0:06:14 > 0:06:17# There's a beach from here to here
0:06:17 > 0:06:23# You can stroll along the pier There's a cafe for a bite to eat
0:06:23 > 0:06:27# Enjoy your ice-cream sundae treat... #
0:06:27 > 0:06:29'Suddenly I saw Grandpa.
0:06:29 > 0:06:33'I couldn't see how he would help Mum from up there,
0:06:33 > 0:06:39'but there was no time to find out, because she was ready at last
0:06:39 > 0:06:43'and she was looking very excited.'
0:06:46 > 0:06:50Thanks for starting, Jason. That was wonderful.
0:06:50 > 0:06:54But now it's time for the star of today's show,
0:06:54 > 0:06:57I give you Jason's mum on the trumpet!
0:06:57 > 0:07:00APPLAUSE
0:07:00 > 0:07:05'Mum took a bit of time to get herself completely ready.
0:07:05 > 0:07:09'We all held our breath and waited for her to play.
0:07:09 > 0:07:12'At last she put the trumpet to her lips and...'
0:07:12 > 0:07:15SHE PLAYS TRUMPET BADLY
0:07:15 > 0:07:17'Then she tried again and...'
0:07:17 > 0:07:21SHE PLAYS TRUMPET BADLY
0:07:21 > 0:07:23'Grandpa was signalling to me.'
0:07:23 > 0:07:27I think you might be better over this side, Mum.
0:07:27 > 0:07:31- There's...there's more light! - Oh, OK!
0:07:31 > 0:07:33'I had no idea what Grandpa was up to,
0:07:33 > 0:07:37'but he definitely had a plan. Mum tried again,
0:07:37 > 0:07:40- 'but all that came out was...' - SHE BLASTS TRUMPET
0:07:40 > 0:07:45Oh! I don't understand. Sounded really good at home.
0:07:45 > 0:07:49I think it must be broken. Sorry, but I don't think I can play.
0:07:49 > 0:07:53'Mum was giving up, and I didn't know what else to do.
0:07:53 > 0:07:55'But Grandpa did.
0:07:55 > 0:07:59'At last I knew why he needed to be small to help.'
0:07:59 > 0:08:05You must try again, Mum, please! Try blowing really gently. Go on.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08OK. Just for you.
0:08:08 > 0:08:13'So Mum put the trumpet to her mouth again and blew very gently.
0:08:13 > 0:08:14'And guess what?
0:08:14 > 0:08:17'She played an amazing tune!
0:08:18 > 0:08:22'But of course, it wasn't Mum playing at all.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25'It was Grandpa making a trumpet sound!'
0:08:28 > 0:08:33# Sunnysands, Sunnysands it's a great place to be
0:08:33 > 0:08:37# It's sunny and it's sandy and it's right by the sea
0:08:37 > 0:08:40# There's a beach from here to here
0:08:40 > 0:08:45# You can stroll along the pier There's a cafe for a bite to eat
0:08:45 > 0:08:48# Enjoy an ice-cream sundae treat
0:08:48 > 0:08:53# Sunnysands, Sunnysands it's the only place to go
0:08:53 > 0:08:58# We all live in Sunnysands so we should know... #
0:08:58 > 0:09:01'Once Mum, or rather Grandpa, had started,
0:09:01 > 0:09:03'There was no stopping.'
0:09:03 > 0:09:08# Sunnysands, Sunnysands it's a great place to stay
0:09:08 > 0:09:13# The houses are so pretty and the sun shines every day
0:09:13 > 0:09:18# There's a lighthouse on the shore Oh, who could ask for more?
0:09:18 > 0:09:21# A toyshop for your buckets and spades
0:09:21 > 0:09:23# Don't forget your hat and shades
0:09:23 > 0:09:28# Sunnysands, Sunnysands it's the only place to go
0:09:28 > 0:09:32# We all live in Sunnysands so we...
0:09:32 > 0:09:36# Should...know! #
0:09:38 > 0:09:41APPLAUSE
0:09:41 > 0:09:45'The Young At Hearts loved it. Mum was so happy,
0:09:45 > 0:09:49'she decided to play a fanfare. She forgot all about blowing gently
0:09:49 > 0:09:51'and blew really hard!
0:09:51 > 0:09:55'Luckily the Young At Hearts were so busy clapping,
0:09:55 > 0:09:57'they didn't see this!'
0:09:57 > 0:10:03Ha-ha-ha! Ha-ha-ha...
0:10:04 > 0:10:06Are you all right, Grandpa?
0:10:06 > 0:10:10Yes, fine, thanks. Just a bit of a sore throat.
0:10:12 > 0:10:16'I kept Grandpa safely in my pocket until we got home.'
0:10:32 > 0:10:35'I ran inside before anyone else...'
0:10:42 > 0:10:46'..and put him on the floor. Grandpa whipped off his cap
0:10:46 > 0:10:48'and came back to normal size.'
0:10:48 > 0:10:51We did it, Jason! Teamwork, eh?
0:10:51 > 0:10:53Yes, Grandpa, teamwork!
0:10:53 > 0:10:54THEY LAUGH
0:10:54 > 0:10:58There you are, Grandpa. How are you feeling? Any better?
0:10:58 > 0:11:01Oh, not too bad. A bit thirsty.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04Me too - all that playing! I'll make a cup of tea.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06A shame you couldn't be there.
0:11:06 > 0:11:09- It went well, didn't it, Jason?- It was fantastic!
0:11:09 > 0:11:14I like a tuneful toot on a trumpet! Ba-ba-ba-bah...
0:11:14 > 0:11:16Grandpa, you're so clever!
0:11:16 > 0:11:19That's exactly how my trumpet playing sounded.
0:11:19 > 0:11:21Fancy that!
