0:00:02 > 0:00:04Not the shrinking cap, Grandpa!

0:00:06 > 0:00:08Catch me if you can!

0:00:09 > 0:00:11Grandpa!

0:00:13 > 0:00:14TYRES SCREECH

0:00:17 > 0:00:20No, be careful!

0:00:25 > 0:00:26Grandpa, stop!

0:00:35 > 0:00:37Whoooaa!

0:00:42 > 0:00:45Grandpa in my pocket!

0:00:50 > 0:00:53'It was the weekend.

0:00:53 > 0:00:57'Mum was working at the bike shop, and Jemima was at dance class,

0:00:57 > 0:01:00'so it was our job to get the house ready.

0:01:00 > 0:01:03'We were expecting a visitor -

0:01:03 > 0:01:06- 'someone we hadn't seen for ages.' - Excuse me, Grandpa.

0:01:06 > 0:01:10'Oh, yes, Cousin Alvin was coming to stay.'

0:01:10 > 0:01:14We must save some lemon bonbons for Alvin, eh, Wolfie?

0:01:14 > 0:01:17'Lemon bonbons are Grandpa's favourite sweets.'

0:01:17 > 0:01:21I'm going to get a bike for Alvin so we can go on a long ride!

0:01:21 > 0:01:24Yes! He loved the bike ride when he came before.

0:01:24 > 0:01:26Ah! Cousin Alvin, eh?!

0:01:26 > 0:01:28He was such a lovely little chap -

0:01:28 > 0:01:33I can't wait to see his cheeky face. Always smiling and laughing...

0:01:33 > 0:01:36I hope he's still like that.

0:01:36 > 0:01:40'But Cousin Alvin wasn't still like that. He was like this...

0:01:40 > 0:01:44'Alvin had been with us for hours

0:01:44 > 0:01:49'and all he'd done was lie on the sofa and listen to his music.

0:01:49 > 0:01:54'Even worse, he'd scoffed all Grandpa's lemon bonbons

0:01:54 > 0:01:58- 'and then he'd fallen asleep.' - HE SNORES

0:01:58 > 0:02:02All he does is sleep. We can't have this, Jason.

0:02:02 > 0:02:05We need a plan.

0:02:05 > 0:02:09'And soon Grandpa had come up with a plan. Oh, yes,

0:02:09 > 0:02:11'he was planning...'

0:02:15 > 0:02:18He's turned into a terrible teenager.

0:02:18 > 0:02:22There's only one way to teach him a lesson.

0:02:22 > 0:02:24Not the shrinking cap, Grandpa!

0:02:29 > 0:02:32Catch me if you can!

0:02:32 > 0:02:34Grandpa, come back!

0:02:34 > 0:02:36'When Grandpa shrinks,

0:02:36 > 0:02:40'he can get up to all kinds of magical things.

0:02:40 > 0:02:42'He can get into my car and make it go...'

0:02:42 > 0:02:44Grandpa, stop!

0:02:46 > 0:02:51- 'He can ride on Gordon, my toy seagull.'- Whee!

0:02:51 > 0:02:53Wheee!

0:02:53 > 0:02:55Not the plane, Grandpa!

0:02:55 > 0:02:58'He can fly off in my plane.'

0:03:03 > 0:03:05Grandpa, come back!

0:03:09 > 0:03:12'As I was about to grab Grandpa,

0:03:12 > 0:03:15- 'Dad came in.'- Alvin? Do you want to test

0:03:15 > 0:03:19the height of the saddle? Oh, he's fast asleep!

0:03:19 > 0:03:20Grandpa gone to lie down?

0:03:20 > 0:03:24- I expect HE'S fast asleep, too. - 'Dad has no idea

0:03:24 > 0:03:27'about Grandpa's magic shrinking cap.

0:03:27 > 0:03:29'I couldn't see Grandpa anywhere.

0:03:29 > 0:03:32'I knew he'd have an idea... but what?

0:03:32 > 0:03:34'Then suddenly...

0:03:37 > 0:03:41'..I saw a big flower making its way towards Alvin.'

0:03:42 > 0:03:44What was that?!

0:03:44 > 0:03:47'Of course, I had to pretend it was ME.'

0:03:47 > 0:03:51What did you do that for?! Pesky little kid!

0:03:51 > 0:03:54I'm SO hungry.

0:03:54 > 0:03:57Isn't there any food in this house?

0:03:57 > 0:04:00Got any crisps? Or Jammie Jumbly biscuits?

0:04:00 > 0:04:04What about ice cream? I need ice cream.

0:04:07 > 0:04:10Why did you wake him up, Grandpa?

0:04:10 > 0:04:12Now he's after our Jammie Jumblies!

0:04:12 > 0:04:16Don't worry, it's all part of my cunning plan.

0:04:16 > 0:04:20'There was no time to hear what Grandpa's cunning plan was.

0:04:20 > 0:04:23'Cousin Alvin was coming back.

0:04:23 > 0:04:27'He was being SO greedy.

0:04:27 > 0:04:30'I knew Grandpa wasn't going to like it.

0:04:32 > 0:04:33HICCUPPING

0:04:33 > 0:04:36Did that biscuit tin just hiccup?!

0:04:36 > 0:04:41- I don't think biscuit tins can hiccup.- Weird.

0:04:41 > 0:04:45'Grandpa was having fun, but I had to get Alvin out of the way

0:04:45 > 0:04:46'before he went too far.'

0:04:46 > 0:04:51Shall we go out? Dad wants to take us for a bike ride.

0:04:51 > 0:04:54Nah. Boring. You got any more sweets?

0:04:54 > 0:04:58No...but we could buy some from Mr Whoops' shop.

0:04:58 > 0:05:01OK, then.

0:05:01 > 0:05:05'The good news was that Alvin was leaving the house...

0:05:07 > 0:05:10'..The bad news was that Grandpa was going with him!'

0:05:16 > 0:05:22'Mr Whoops is called Mr Whoops cos he's always having accidents.

0:05:24 > 0:05:26'He drops things...'

0:05:26 > 0:05:29Oh!

0:05:29 > 0:05:32- '..He falls over things...'- Whoops!

0:05:34 > 0:05:36'..He falls off things...'

0:05:36 > 0:05:38Whoops!

0:05:38 > 0:05:42- '..He even trips over his own feet.' - Whoops!

0:05:44 > 0:05:48'I was really hoping Grandpa would behave himself

0:05:48 > 0:05:51'because the last time he was in Mr Whoops' shop,

0:05:51 > 0:05:54'he did this...'

0:06:15 > 0:06:19'He had a great time jumping from shelf to shelf.

0:06:30 > 0:06:34'You know when Grandpa's got an idea in his head...

0:06:34 > 0:06:37'there's no stopping him.'

0:06:42 > 0:06:45- Those will do for starters. - What, ALL of them?!

0:06:45 > 0:06:50- Yeah, and I want some other stuff. Show me what you've got.- Well,

0:06:50 > 0:06:54there are strawberry chews, fizzy sherbet, peanut crunch,

0:06:54 > 0:06:58- lemon bonbons...- Yeah, I want some lemon bonbons.

0:06:58 > 0:07:00- MR WHOOPS CHUCKLES - Ooh...

0:07:00 > 0:07:03We seem to have run out.

0:07:03 > 0:07:05I might have some more in the back.

0:07:05 > 0:07:08- THUD - Whoa!

0:07:10 > 0:07:15Oi...where are my lollipops? They were just here!

0:07:15 > 0:07:20'I had a nasty feeling that Grandpa was up to something...

0:07:20 > 0:07:22'and I was right!'

0:07:33 > 0:07:35- MR WHOOPS:- You're in luck!

0:07:35 > 0:07:39- How did you do that?! - I beg your pardon? Do what?

0:07:39 > 0:07:42Those lollipops...they were dancing.

0:07:43 > 0:07:45Ha, ha! Very funny!

0:07:45 > 0:07:49You nearly had me there! He nearly had me there!

0:07:49 > 0:07:53It wasn't a joke. AND I want some chocolate raisins,

0:07:53 > 0:07:57and strawberry chews. And fizzy sherbet...

0:07:57 > 0:08:01'While Alvin ordered more sweets, I looked for Grandpa.

0:08:01 > 0:08:04- 'I didn't find him anywhere.' - ..caramel, toffee...

0:08:04 > 0:08:08'But I did find these. I had no idea why

0:08:08 > 0:08:12'Grandpa had taken all the wrappers off the lollipops,

0:08:12 > 0:08:15'but I didn't have to wait long to find out.

0:08:15 > 0:08:18'A giant sweet was standing on the counter...

0:08:18 > 0:08:21'Only it wasn't a sweet -

0:08:21 > 0:08:24'it was Grandpa!

0:08:24 > 0:08:28- 'But before I could catch him...' - Whoa!

0:08:28 > 0:08:31Sorry about that. I'll just get my dustpan and brush.

0:08:31 > 0:08:35'..Alvin was coming back. There was nothing I could do.'

0:08:35 > 0:08:37Hey!

0:08:37 > 0:08:40Look at that! It's Huge!

0:08:40 > 0:08:44- I want that one too.- But you can't!

0:08:44 > 0:08:48Yes, I can! I'm going to gobble it all up in one go...

0:08:48 > 0:08:52- Argh! It's alive!- 'This time, Grandpa had gone too far.'

0:08:52 > 0:08:55Hey! Come here!

0:08:55 > 0:08:59- I want to gobble you up! - You will do no such thing,

0:08:59 > 0:09:02you greedy boy! Too many sweets are bad for you,

0:09:02 > 0:09:07and too much lying about on sofas is bad for you too!

0:09:07 > 0:09:11You've got to change your ways, young man.

0:09:11 > 0:09:13I'm getting out of here!

0:09:13 > 0:09:16You can't get rid of me that easily!

0:09:16 > 0:09:22So, the giant sweet ran after Alvin and I ran after the giant sweet!

0:09:22 > 0:09:25Sorry to keep you waiting, I had a little accident...

0:09:25 > 0:09:29Oh! They've gone!

0:09:34 > 0:09:36- HE PANTS - I'm so tired!

0:09:36 > 0:09:41'He flung himself onto the sofa and was so tired from the running,

0:09:41 > 0:09:43'he soon fell fast asleep.

0:09:43 > 0:09:46'Which, this time, was a good thing,

0:09:46 > 0:09:49'because it gave me a chance to unwrap Grandpa.

0:09:49 > 0:09:53'We made sure nobody was looking, then Grandpa

0:09:53 > 0:09:56'took off his cap and came back to his normal size.

0:09:59 > 0:10:05'Alvin was so tired, he slept and slept and slept...

0:10:05 > 0:10:09'until Grandpa decided he'd slept long enough.'

0:10:09 > 0:10:11Time to wake up, Alvin!

0:10:11 > 0:10:15Where am I? Was I asleep?

0:10:15 > 0:10:18Yes, for ages!

0:10:18 > 0:10:21I had this really weird dream.

0:10:21 > 0:10:22Really?

0:10:22 > 0:10:26Yeah! This great big sweet talked to me.

0:10:26 > 0:10:29That IS weird.

0:10:29 > 0:10:31Anyway...

0:10:31 > 0:10:34I've had enough of lying about on the sofa.

0:10:34 > 0:10:37Too much lying about on sofas is bad for you.

0:10:37 > 0:10:40How about that bike ride?

0:10:40 > 0:10:42Hey! Uncle CJ! Is my bike ready, please?

0:10:42 > 0:10:47We did it, Jason! We turned Alvin back into the lovely little chap

0:10:47 > 0:10:52- he used to be! Teamwork, eh?! - Yes, Grandpa, teamwork!

0:10:55 > 0:10:58Honest, Jemima. It was the weirdest dream ever.

0:10:58 > 0:11:03I was chased down the street by a giant sweet - like this...

0:11:03 > 0:11:07"Grr!" And he said, "You can't get rid of me that easily!"

0:11:07 > 0:11:09Oh, Alvin, you're so funny!

0:11:09 > 0:11:13It's so good to see you. You must stay again soon.

0:11:13 > 0:11:15Lemon bonbon, Alvin?

0:11:15 > 0:11:20Er, no thanks. Too many sweets are bad for you.
