0:00:01 > 0:00:03Not 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 > 0:00:37Wa-hay!
0:00:43 > 0:00:45Grandpa in my pocket.
0:00:47 > 0:00:49It was the weekend.
0:00:49 > 0:00:53Mum had gone off with Jemima to a tap-dancing festival
0:00:53 > 0:00:55and guess who'd invited herself to stay.
0:00:55 > 0:00:59Great-Aunt Loretta, Grandpa's sister.
0:00:59 > 0:01:01I suppose you all want some breakfast?
0:01:01 > 0:01:05Great-Aunt Loretta always makes really weird food.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08There we are, prune and parsnip porridge.
0:01:12 > 0:01:16- Ah, looks interesting.- Looks revolting. Looks more like a...
0:01:16 > 0:01:19Don't you start! You're lucky to get any breakfast at all!
0:01:19 > 0:01:22I'm worn out, I am.
0:01:22 > 0:01:25Ooh, I need a rest.
0:01:28 > 0:01:32She spotted something interesting in the Sunnysands Gazette.
0:01:32 > 0:01:33Mr Mentor the Inventor.
0:01:33 > 0:01:38He's running a competition. It's today!
0:01:38 > 0:01:43He wants everyone to invent a clock that reminds him of Sunnysands.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46A Sunnysands tick-tock clock.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49Little did we all know that Mr Mentor was in for...
0:01:54 > 0:01:59Now, Mr Mentor the Inventor lives in the lighthouse in Sunnysands.
0:01:59 > 0:02:03He's always coming up with really crazy inventions.
0:02:03 > 0:02:07Like this, the grassy buggle jumper.
0:02:07 > 0:02:10Only the bugs liked it even more than he did.
0:02:10 > 0:02:14Then there's this, the automatic hair-o-static
0:02:14 > 0:02:17that gives you a new hairstyle every day.
0:02:19 > 0:02:23And this, the huffer-puffer pillow-fluffer.
0:02:29 > 0:02:33Everyone loves going to visit him in the lighthouse
0:02:33 > 0:02:34and trying things out.
0:02:34 > 0:02:38And he likes trying out other people's inventions, too.
0:02:41 > 0:02:45I shall invent a Sunnysands clock.
0:02:45 > 0:02:49I'm going to go in for it. I'm going to enter for Mr Mentor the Inventor.
0:02:49 > 0:02:52You've never made anything like that in your life!
0:02:52 > 0:02:53Ooh, there's a prize.
0:02:53 > 0:02:57- What's the point? - A three-week holiday.
0:02:59 > 0:03:00A three-week holiday?
0:03:00 > 0:03:03A cruise, on a big ship.
0:03:03 > 0:03:04Oh, that's a great idea!
0:03:04 > 0:03:06You haven't had a holiday for ages.
0:03:06 > 0:03:08And Dad agreed with Grandpa.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10I agree with Grandpa.
0:03:10 > 0:03:12- WULFY BARKS - And Wulfy liked the idea, too.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17- We could help you. - You'll do no such thing.
0:03:17 > 0:03:23No, I shall make a Sunnysands clock and I shall win the holiday.
0:03:25 > 0:03:30Great-Aunt Loretta had everything she needed to make her clock.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32Dad found just the thing in the garage.
0:03:32 > 0:03:35You can build your sculpture around that.
0:03:35 > 0:03:40Oh, thank you. And I know just what kind of Sunnysands clock
0:03:40 > 0:03:42I'm going to make for Mr Mentor.
0:03:43 > 0:03:47Meanwhile, Grandpa and I were playing with my construction set.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50You sure you don't want any help, Loretta?
0:03:50 > 0:03:52Quite sure, thank you, Grandpa.
0:03:53 > 0:03:57If she's going to win that holiday, Jason, and give us all some peace,
0:03:57 > 0:03:59she's going to need all the help she can get.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02And if she won't let me help her while I'm big,
0:04:02 > 0:04:04I'll just have to make myself small.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07Not the shrinking cap, Grandpa!
0:04:11 > 0:04:13Catch me if you can!
0:04:13 > 0:04:15Now, you know when Grandpa shrinks
0:04:15 > 0:04:17he can get up to all kinds of mischief.
0:04:17 > 0:04:20He can fly off in my plane.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25He can drive off in my car.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28Or he can run so fast that I can't catch him.
0:04:28 > 0:04:32Get down! We haven't got time for this, Grandpa!
0:04:32 > 0:04:34Help! Help!
0:04:34 > 0:04:35Coming, Great-Aunt Loretta!
0:04:35 > 0:04:37Get down!
0:04:37 > 0:04:39I hoped Grandpa would do as he was told.
0:04:39 > 0:04:42I ran to help Aunt Loretta.
0:04:42 > 0:04:45A-a-a-a..
0:04:45 > 0:04:49..choo! Oh, thank you. Oh, Grandpa promised he'd help
0:04:49 > 0:04:53but where is he when I need somebody to help me blow my nose, eh?
0:04:53 > 0:04:56Gone for a little lie-down, I suppose.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58Whenever Grandpa shrinks,
0:04:58 > 0:05:01everyone thinks he's gone for a little lie-down.
0:05:01 > 0:05:06Now then, Jason Mason, are you ready to see my Sunnysands clock?
0:05:06 > 0:05:07Uh-huh...
0:05:07 > 0:05:12Three, two, one...
0:05:13 > 0:05:14Ta-da!
0:05:17 > 0:05:20It's Mr Mentor's lighthouse. He's going to love it, won't he?
0:05:20 > 0:05:22It's a masterpiece.
0:05:23 > 0:05:26While she was admiring her masterpiece,
0:05:26 > 0:05:29Grandpa climbed up the table leg.
0:05:29 > 0:05:31Grandpa signalled to me
0:05:31 > 0:05:34to get Great-Aunt Loretta out of the kitchen.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37He had a plan, I could tell.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40And when Grandpa has a plan, there's no stopping him.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42The judging's at five o'clock,
0:05:42 > 0:05:45and you're still in your nightie!
0:05:45 > 0:05:47All right, don't get shirty.
0:05:47 > 0:05:51I'll go and change, then. It's not me who keeps everybody waiting.
0:05:51 > 0:05:54Right, Jason. Here's the plan.
0:05:56 > 0:06:00Goodness, it's...it's extraordinary.
0:06:00 > 0:06:01What's it like inside?
0:06:01 > 0:06:04- We have to hurry, Dad! - Steady, Jason.
0:06:04 > 0:06:05I'll be ready very soon.
0:06:09 > 0:06:12Right. This is what I need.
0:06:12 > 0:06:14He needed bits of egg box.
0:06:14 > 0:06:18He needed some glue, some paints, and some felt.
0:06:20 > 0:06:24- Are you nearly ready, Grandpa? - I just need one more thing.
0:06:24 > 0:06:27Jason! You can carry my bag!
0:06:27 > 0:06:30Coming! Get in the clock, quick!
0:06:33 > 0:06:35Jason!
0:06:42 > 0:06:44Right, then.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47Come on, my beauty. We're off.
0:06:49 > 0:06:54So we all got into Campo and off we went to Miss Smiley's cafe.
0:06:54 > 0:06:57And Great-Aunt Loretta said...
0:06:57 > 0:07:01Ooh, I hope Mr Mentor likes my clock. What if he doesn't?
0:07:01 > 0:07:05I'm all nervous, now.
0:07:05 > 0:07:07I didn't think she should be nervous.
0:07:07 > 0:07:09After all, Grandpa had a plan.
0:07:09 > 0:07:12And he was in the lighthouse clock.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14Or so I thought.
0:07:19 > 0:07:23At the cafe, there were a lot of clocks.
0:07:23 > 0:07:25There was a fish clock.
0:07:27 > 0:07:28A shell clock.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30A beach hut clock.
0:07:30 > 0:07:33And they all looked fantastic!
0:07:34 > 0:07:38As soon as I got the chance, I peeked into the lighthouse
0:07:38 > 0:07:40to check that Grandpa was OK.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42But Grandpa wasn't OK!
0:07:42 > 0:07:44He wasn't even there!
0:07:44 > 0:07:47This was a disaster!
0:07:47 > 0:07:51Then poor Great-Aunt Loretta started to get upset.
0:07:51 > 0:07:53The other clocks are lovely!
0:07:53 > 0:07:56Oh, mine looks terrible!
0:07:56 > 0:07:58Mr Mentor will hate it.
0:07:58 > 0:08:02- Ooh, I feel sick!- Aunt Loretta!
0:08:02 > 0:08:06It wasn't long before Mr Mentor arrived to start the judging.
0:08:06 > 0:08:08Oh, they're fabbadiculous!
0:08:08 > 0:08:12Mr Mentor doesn't just invent things, he invents words, too.
0:08:12 > 0:08:14Aren't they wonderbubble?
0:08:14 > 0:08:16What wonderbubble clocks.
0:08:16 > 0:08:19I don't have think clocks get any wonderbubblier than these.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22This is going to be hard, Miss Smiley.
0:08:25 > 0:08:26Now I was really worried.
0:08:26 > 0:08:30Great-Aunt Loretta wasn't going to win without Grandpa's help,
0:08:30 > 0:08:35and Grandpa was not where he was supposed to be. Where was he?
0:08:44 > 0:08:49Miss Smiley, now, this cake is quite marvellicious.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51Just then, Grandpa raced across the floor
0:08:51 > 0:08:54and soon he climbed up onto the table.
0:08:54 > 0:08:55Where have you been?
0:08:55 > 0:08:57I had to make a hat.
0:08:57 > 0:09:01I think it'll be hard to beat, Miss Smiley.
0:09:01 > 0:09:03Very hard to beat.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06Just then, we heard...
0:09:06 > 0:09:10Tickety-tock. Tick-tock, tick-tock, tickety-tock.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13Tick-tock, tick-tock, tickety-tock.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15Now, that is a brillioso tick and tock.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18Sounds almost human.
0:09:18 > 0:09:21What an invention, a musical clock!
0:09:21 > 0:09:23Grandpa's plan was working.
0:09:23 > 0:09:26Mr Mentor was really impressed.
0:09:26 > 0:09:30Then suddenly, a door at the top of the lighthouse opened...
0:09:30 > 0:09:33..and out came Grandpa, dressed as a weatherman,
0:09:33 > 0:09:36and still singing the tick and tock.
0:09:36 > 0:09:38He'd made himself a costume out of felt.
0:09:38 > 0:09:40Tick-tock, tick-tock, tickety-tock.
0:09:41 > 0:09:43How fantastable!
0:09:43 > 0:09:45This time Grandpa had gone too far.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51But he was about to go even further.
0:09:51 > 0:09:55Just as it hit five o'clock, this happened.
0:09:55 > 0:09:56Cuckoo! Cuckoo!
0:09:56 > 0:09:59He'd made himself another costume, out of an egg box.
0:09:59 > 0:10:01Cuckoo! Cuckoo!
0:10:01 > 0:10:08- And who is responsible for this work of genius?- Er, me.
0:10:08 > 0:10:10I am.
0:10:10 > 0:10:12- Sorry, I was just in the... - SHE MOUTHS
0:10:12 > 0:10:16- toilet.- 'Great-Aunt Loretta can't say "toilet" out loud.'
0:10:16 > 0:10:18She thinks it's rude.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21She wouldn't come out. She's so shy.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23So shy.
0:10:23 > 0:10:27So talented! So creative!
0:10:27 > 0:10:29Well, thank you.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32- You win the prize, Loretta.- Oh!
0:10:32 > 0:10:37This clock is not just wonderbubble, it's absolumply wonderbubble!
0:10:39 > 0:10:42Absolumply wonderbubble!
0:10:43 > 0:10:47When we got home, I rushed inside ahead of Dad and Great-Aunt Loretta
0:10:47 > 0:10:49and put the clock down on the floor.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51Come out, Grandpa, quick!
0:10:51 > 0:10:54Out he came. He had changed back into his own clothes.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57He quickly ripped off his shrinking cap
0:10:57 > 0:10:59and came back to his normal size.
0:10:59 > 0:11:03We did it, Jason! Great-Aunt Loretta is going on holiday!
0:11:04 > 0:11:07- Teamwork!- Teamwork!
0:11:10 > 0:11:13Guess what! I won!
0:11:13 > 0:11:15I won the competition!
0:11:15 > 0:11:18Oh, Loretta, that's wonderful!
0:11:18 > 0:11:21You deserve a really long holiday.
0:11:21 > 0:11:24Thank you. I think I do, actually.
0:11:25 > 0:11:28Now, let's have a look at the prize.
0:11:28 > 0:11:34Oh! It's a cruise for two!
0:11:34 > 0:11:36You can come with me, Grandpa!
