0:13:50 > 0:13:57.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04Not the shrinking cap, Grandpa!
0:14:06 > 0:14:07Catch me if you can!
0:14:09 > 0:14:10Grandpa!
0:14:17 > 0:14:19No, be careful!
0:14:25 > 0:14:26Grandpa, stop!
0:14:35 > 0:14:37Whoa!
0:14:47 > 0:14:50This is the one. This is the one!
0:14:50 > 0:14:51Yeah! 6!
0:14:51 > 0:14:53Wa-hoo!
0:14:53 > 0:14:55'It was the weekend,
0:14:55 > 0:14:59'Grandpa and I were playing with our Captain Dumbletwit game.
0:14:59 > 0:15:03'Dad and Jemima were about to go to the hairdressers.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05'Mum was doing her new hobby...
0:15:05 > 0:15:10'Mum's always taking up new hobbies. One week it's karate,
0:15:10 > 0:15:14'then it's salsa dancing, then cake decorating...
0:15:15 > 0:15:18'the ukulele...
0:15:19 > 0:15:22'knitting...
0:15:23 > 0:15:25'opera singing...'
0:15:25 > 0:15:27Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, aaah!
0:15:30 > 0:15:31'And now...
0:15:31 > 0:15:34'this. Photography.
0:15:34 > 0:15:37'Mum had been practising really hard,
0:15:37 > 0:15:41'and this evening she was going to take...'
0:15:46 > 0:15:50Are you coming to the hairdressers too, Jason?
0:15:50 > 0:15:51No thanks.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54He looks fine just as he is. So do we.
0:15:54 > 0:15:56Don't we, Wulfy?
0:15:56 > 0:15:58Come on, Jemima. Time to go.
0:15:58 > 0:16:02Mum's invited someone to be in the family photo with us.
0:16:02 > 0:16:07- Somebody you've known since you were a little boy.- Oh, no.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09BELL RINGS
0:16:10 > 0:16:13'It was Great Aunt Loretta, Grandpa's sister!'
0:16:13 > 0:16:18- I didn't know what to wear, so I brought everything.- Oh...
0:16:18 > 0:16:20- See you later.- Bye!
0:16:23 > 0:16:28You better not look like that in the photo. Smile please, Grandpa!
0:16:28 > 0:16:32'But Grandpa didn't feel like smiling. Like most brothers,
0:16:32 > 0:16:36- 'he finds his sister very annoying.' - You're early!- Well,
0:16:36 > 0:16:41I've got plans! For a start, you need smartening up.
0:16:41 > 0:16:46I'm not gonna be seen in a photo with somebody with hairy nostrils.
0:16:46 > 0:16:50- I haven't got hairy nostrils!- All grandpas have got hairy nostrils.
0:16:50 > 0:16:53I'm gonna set up my things in the kitchen.
0:16:53 > 0:16:55I'll call you when I'm ready.
0:16:56 > 0:16:58I've had enough of this...
0:16:58 > 0:17:01I've got to get out of here.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04Not the shrinking cap, Grandpa!
0:17:07 > 0:17:09- Catch me if you can!- Come back!
0:17:09 > 0:17:12'You know when Grandpa shrinks,
0:17:12 > 0:17:15'he can get up to all kinds of magical things.
0:17:15 > 0:17:17'He can fly off in my plane.'
0:17:17 > 0:17:18< I'm ready!
0:17:18 > 0:17:22'Grandpa was ready, too - to fly out the house and not come back!
0:17:22 > 0:17:25'But instead, he flew behind the sofa. Just then,
0:17:25 > 0:17:29- 'Great Aunt Loretta came into the room.'- Oh, where is he?
0:17:29 > 0:17:32Gone for a little lie down, has he? Typical!
0:17:32 > 0:17:35'Great Aunt Loretta has no idea
0:17:35 > 0:17:38- 'about Grandpa's magic shrinking cap.'- Never mind.
0:17:38 > 0:17:40I'll deal with him later.
0:17:40 > 0:17:44Where's the other scruffy mutt in this family? Beowulf?!
0:17:44 > 0:17:47Where are you, you little monster?
0:17:47 > 0:17:50'Great Aunt Loretta isn't very keen on Beowulf.
0:17:50 > 0:17:54'And Beowulf isn't very keen on Great Aunt Loretta.'
0:17:54 > 0:17:58Don't look at me like that. I've got plans for you, too.
0:17:58 > 0:18:02When I've finished with you, even Grandpa won't recognise you.
0:18:02 > 0:18:06- 'Just then, the doorbell went.' - DOORBELL RINGS
0:18:06 > 0:18:11And guess who's coming to help me? Somebody who is very good with dogs.
0:18:11 > 0:18:12Psst! Jason!
0:18:12 > 0:18:14Hide Beowulf. Quick!
0:18:24 > 0:18:27Miss Snip, the dog groomer.
0:18:27 > 0:18:29Hello, Jason!
0:18:29 > 0:18:36I'm gonna give your doggy a shampoo, a blow-dry, and a snip, snip, snip!
0:18:36 > 0:18:40So, where is she?
0:18:40 > 0:18:42It's a he, and he's called Beowulf.
0:18:42 > 0:18:45Beowulf? Oh, dear!
0:18:45 > 0:18:50With a name like Beowulf, he sounds very scary and, well, wolf-like!
0:18:50 > 0:18:52Oh, believe me, he's a monster!
0:18:52 > 0:18:55Now, show me what you've brought.
0:18:56 > 0:18:57Ah!
0:18:57 > 0:19:01'Miss Snip looked round nervously for Beowulf.'
0:19:01 > 0:19:03I love these bows!
0:19:03 > 0:19:06Just look at these sparkly colours.
0:19:06 > 0:19:09We've gotta get Beowulf in one of these!
0:19:09 > 0:19:13'I knew Grandpa wouldn't want Beowulf to wear a sparkly collar.'
0:19:13 > 0:19:17But first, I want you to give the smelly mutt a bath, Miss Snip.
0:19:17 > 0:19:20'I'd hidden Beowulf behind a bin.
0:19:20 > 0:19:23'I was sure Grandpa was hiding somewhere, too.
0:19:23 > 0:19:26'I was crossing fingers they'd stay out of sight.'
0:19:26 > 0:19:30Will Beowulf mind smelling like rose and rhubarb?
0:19:30 > 0:19:34Make a change from smelling like Grandpa! Ha-ha!
0:19:34 > 0:19:37Jason, go and fetch a doggy towel. Right.
0:19:37 > 0:19:40Come on. Time to go and find the monster!
0:19:40 > 0:19:44But I don't usually bath scary monster-type doggies!
0:19:44 > 0:19:45Beo-WULF?!
0:19:45 > 0:19:48'I didn't like being out the room with Grandpa on the loose.
0:19:48 > 0:19:53'I was sure he'd have a plan to help Beowulf, and I was right.'
0:19:53 > 0:19:57Rose and rhubarb? Revolting! But don't you worry, Wulfy!
0:19:57 > 0:20:00This is what we... She's coming back. Hide!
0:20:00 > 0:20:03'I rushed back into the kitchen,
0:20:03 > 0:20:06'and Grandpa was looking for somewhere to hide, too.'
0:20:08 > 0:20:13'He was in such a panic, he knocked over the bottle of shampoo!'
0:20:19 > 0:20:21A-ha! You can't get away from me.
0:20:21 > 0:20:24Miss Snip, I've found him. Come on!
0:20:24 > 0:20:27As I said, I don't normally bath monsters...
0:20:28 > 0:20:32Ooh! He's not what I expected at all!
0:20:32 > 0:20:36I thought he'd be big and scary and wolf-like.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39Oh-ho-ho! Silly me.
0:20:40 > 0:20:45You're not a monster, are you? You're a lovely boy. Oh, you are!
0:20:45 > 0:20:46You are!
0:20:46 > 0:20:49Enough of that! Let's get on with...
0:20:49 > 0:20:51BAAAH!
0:20:51 > 0:20:52THUD!
0:20:52 > 0:20:57Ouch. Ouch! Jason, get the peas. Quick!
0:20:57 > 0:21:01'Great Aunt Loretta is always falling over and hurting her toe.'
0:21:01 > 0:21:02Ouch, ouch!
0:21:02 > 0:21:07'We have frozen peas in our freezer especially for these moments.'
0:21:07 > 0:21:10You don't fool me with your big, brown eyes.
0:21:10 > 0:21:14You knocked that bottle over. It's your fault.
0:21:14 > 0:21:19'But it wasn't Beowulf's fault. It was Grandpa's! Where was he?
0:21:19 > 0:21:21'I couldn't see him anywhere.'
0:21:21 > 0:21:25We'll have to use washing-up liquid instead. Put Beowulf on the table.
0:21:28 > 0:21:31'The good news was, now I knew Grandpa was in the jug.'
0:21:31 > 0:21:33You can use that jug.
0:21:33 > 0:21:37'The bad news was that Miss Snip was about to fill it with hot water!
0:21:37 > 0:21:42'Grandpa started growling, pretending to be Beowulf.
0:21:42 > 0:21:43GROWLING AND SCREAMING
0:21:44 > 0:21:48Beowulf! Look what you made Miss Snip do! Bad dog.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50No growling!
0:21:50 > 0:21:52I'm so sorry!
0:21:52 > 0:21:54Oh dear, how silly!
0:21:54 > 0:21:58'Luckily, Grandpa had managed to escape.'
0:21:58 > 0:22:02I don't think Beowulf wants a bath. I tell you what,
0:22:02 > 0:22:05I'll just give him a lovely little trim. Snip, snip!
0:22:05 > 0:22:09'I knew Grandpa wouldn't want Beowulf "snip-snipped"!
0:22:09 > 0:22:11'I had to do something.'
0:22:11 > 0:22:16No, you've missed a bit there... Behind you, there! There!
0:22:17 > 0:22:21'So, while Miss Snip was clearing up the broken jug,
0:22:21 > 0:22:24'I picked him up and ran off to the sitting room.'
0:22:25 > 0:22:30Quick, Jason! Put Beowulf next to me, and cover us with cushions.
0:22:30 > 0:22:35- You hide, too.- What if she finds you? - Don't worry. I've got a plan.
0:22:35 > 0:22:39'I didn't have time to find out what Grandpa's plan was,
0:22:39 > 0:22:44'because Miss Snip came into the room - with her trimmers!'
0:22:44 > 0:22:46Beowulf!
0:22:46 > 0:22:49Where's my lovely boy?
0:22:49 > 0:22:52Time for your "snip, snip, snip"!
0:22:53 > 0:22:55Now, don't be silly.
0:22:55 > 0:22:58I know you're here somewhere.
0:22:59 > 0:23:03Ahhh! There you are. Good boy.
0:23:03 > 0:23:08'This was a disaster! Miss Snip was about to find Grandpa, too!'
0:23:08 > 0:23:10Now, don't be scared.
0:23:10 > 0:23:13I'm gonna make you all beautiful and tidy.
0:23:13 > 0:23:15Just a "snip, snip" here and there.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17GROWLING Oh, no, you don't!
0:23:17 > 0:23:21You're not "snip, snip, snipping" me anywhere! Grrr!
0:23:21 > 0:23:25'This time, Grandpa had gone too far. He was pretending
0:23:25 > 0:23:27'that Beowulf could talk!'
0:23:27 > 0:23:30I don't need smelly shampoo!
0:23:30 > 0:23:32Or a sparkly collar.
0:23:32 > 0:23:36I'm fine just as I am! Leave me alone,
0:23:36 > 0:23:40or you'll find out why I'm called Beowulf!
0:23:40 > 0:23:44OK, OK! I won't touch you, I promise!
0:23:44 > 0:23:48And don't tell anyone I can talk!
0:23:48 > 0:23:51N-No! No, I won't.
0:23:51 > 0:23:54I won't - not a word. I promise!
0:23:54 > 0:23:56- What is all this? - Oh, it's nothing! Nothing.
0:23:56 > 0:24:01I, er, don't think Beowulf needs snipping after all.
0:24:01 > 0:24:03Or shampooing...or anything!
0:24:05 > 0:24:09I'm not much of a dog groomer, am I? I'm terrified of dogs!
0:24:09 > 0:24:11'Grandpa had done it!'
0:24:11 > 0:24:15- Sorry. I haven't been much help today.- No, you haven't!
0:24:15 > 0:24:20But you can come and help me choose what to wear for this photo.
0:24:22 > 0:24:23Bring me bag up.
0:24:25 > 0:24:30'As soon as they were out of sight, I rushed over to Grandpa.'
0:24:33 > 0:24:36Take your cap off! Quick, Grandpa!
0:24:36 > 0:24:40'Grandpa took off his cap and came back to his normal size.'
0:24:40 > 0:24:44We did it, Jason. We saved Beowulf from being groomed.
0:24:44 > 0:24:48- That's what I call teamwork! - Yes, Grandpa. Teamwork!
0:24:48 > 0:24:50THEY CHUCKLE
0:24:53 > 0:24:55'That evening, everyone came home,
0:24:55 > 0:24:59'and Mum got her camera ready to take the family photo.'
0:24:59 > 0:25:03- Where's Great Aunt Loretta? Loretta?- Coming!
0:25:03 > 0:25:07- Hurry up, Great Aunt Loretta! - Be quick, we're waiting!
0:25:07 > 0:25:09Just coming, hold on!
0:25:11 > 0:25:15'And guess what? Miss Snip had groomed Great Aunt Loretta!'
