Mr Whoops' Wonderful Wedding Grandpa In My Pocket

Not the shrinking cap, Grandpa!

Catch me if you can!

Grandpa!

No, be careful!

PROPELLERS WHIR

PROPELLERS WHIR

Grandpa, stop!

PROPELLERS WHIR

Woah!

'Grandpa in my pocket!'

'It was a really busy day.'

-Where's the tape?

-Has anyone seen my... Oh.

There it is.

Dad, how do you spell "congratulations"?

'All this was for a very special occasion.'

Ta-daa!

Oh, Grandpa, you look wonderful!

-I'd better make myself look wonderful too.

-We all must!

This is going to be a wonderful wedding!

'And whose wonderful wedding was it?'

'And who was he marrying?'

# Miss Smiley

# Scrumptious Miss Smiley

# Her peacock salad's a healthy treat

# But her chocolate sundaes taste all sweet

# When it comes to pudding time, I must confess

# You just can't beat her summer mess

# There's no-one

# I rate as highly

# As Miss Smiley

# Smiley Miss Smiley. #

-I'm so excited!

-'Jemima was so excited.

-'She was going to be a bridesmaid.'

-Mum, can you do my hair first?

Good idea, then I'll have plenty of time to do Miss Smiley's.

I'm just going to drop my things-on-sticks over to the cafe.

Jason, there's another tray in the kitchen. Come with me.

Did Miss Smiley ask you to make things-on-sticks?

No, I'm just helping out. It's more than you do, Grandpa.

Loretta helping Miss Smiley? It'll be a disaster.

And Miss Smiley musn't have a disaster on her wedding day.

-I'd better come too.

-Not the shrinking cap, Grandpa!

Catch me if you can!

'You know what happens when Grandpa puts on his magic cap.

'He can chuff around in my Sunnysands train,

'He can jump into my toy car and make it go.

'He can fly in my toy plane.

'Often, I have no idea where he's got to.

'And today, he was here.'

-Just cover me with a napkin!

-OK.

'I was sure Great Aunt Loretta would be back.

'She'd been waiting for me to catch her up. And sure enough...'

Will you stop lingering?

Grandpa's gone for a lie-down? He always disappears when there's work.

Come on, now. Get a move on.

'Great Aunt Loretta was right.

'Grandpa was having a lie-down - on the tray of things-on-sticks.'

'The cafe had been specially decorated for the wedding.

'Miss Smiley was finishing off her wonderful wedding cake.'

Where do you want the things-on-sticks?

I made them meself. There's spicy sausage and banana,

pilchard and marshmallow,

and there's garlic and bubblegum! Try one.

'While Miss Smiley was looking at the things-on-sticks,

'I quickly took the napkin off Grandpa.

'He stood up and hid behind a plate of party sandwiches.'

Thanks, but I'm not really hungry at the moment.

Oh, well! That's just cos you're nervous.

But don't worry, I'm here to help!

'Just then, I saw Mr Whoops.'

-There's Mr Whoops!

-What? Well, he can't come in here!

It's bad luck for the groom to see the bride before the wedding.

Get rid of him as quickly as you can! Quick, go and hide!

-In the...

-SHE MOUTHS

'Great Aunt Loretta never says the word "toilet" out loud.

'She thinks it's rude.'

# Miss Smiley

# Scrumptious Miss Smi... #

-Whoops!

-'Mr Whoops knocked the little groom off the cake!'

How could I be so clumsy?! Oh, no!

Oh, no!

'Just then, I saw Grandpa. He wanted to talk to me.'

The groom's over there on the floor.

He needs a new head. Can you make another one?

I'll try.

'At that moment, Great Aunt Loretta came back in.'

Mr Whoops! You shouldn't still be here! You've got to go!

HE JIBBERS I've done a terrible thing!

I've knocked the groom off our wonderful wedding cake!

'Great Aunt Loretta looked at the cake.'

No, you didn't.

'Grandpa had stepped in, just in time.'

I was sure I...

How strange!

He must've got back on the cake all by himself.

Oh, Mr Whoops, you're just a big bag of nerves.

Just like Miss Smiley.

It's a good thing I'm here to help keep everybody calm.

Now then, off you go. Back to the toy shop.

Oh! Miss Smiley! You can come out now!

'So, I put Grandpa in my pocket

'and the groom back on the cake.'

Everything's all right now. Just keep calm.

Ooh! Look at the time! You've got to do your hair and your make-up!

OK, but I need my keys!

-Come on.

-Right, I'm coming.

There we go, right! Oh!

You're lingering again. Jason!

'So we all went back to our house.

'Before long, Miss Smiley was ready to have her hair and make-up done.

'Grandpa had jumped out of my pocket and was up on the shelf.'

It might be easier to do your hair and make-up in the kitchen.

-Mum, my bun has fallen down!

-Oh, don't worry.

'Then Great Aunt Loretta appeared.'

No need to panic! I am here to help!

Why don't you do the bridesmaid, I'll do the bride.

I'm an expert at hair and make-up. Come on, into the kitchen.

-Come along, Jemima, let's do your hair upstairs.

-I'll ring Mr Whoops.

See how he's getting on.

Ring! Where is the...?

'Mr Whoops was very nervous.'

Here it is. Zing-a-ting-ting, what a beautiful...

-PHONE RINGS

-Whoops!

'The ring went flying and landed in the shape-sorter.'

Help! Whoever you are!

-What's the matter, Mr Whoops?

-I lost the ring!

You've lost the ring? JASON MOUTHS

I'll be right over. MR WHOOPS SOBS

Don't tell Miss Smiley. I don't want to worry her.

OK, I hope you find it.

'Grandpa had jumped down onto the sofa.'

This is terrible. I'd better go and help.

-You stay and deal with Loretta.

-But, Grandpa...

I won't be long.

'Before I could stop him. Grandpa ran to my toy plane and jumped in.

'Then, he flew up the stairs and out the bedroom window.

'Grandpa flew in while Dad and Mr Whoops were looking for the ring.

'At home, Great Aunt Loretta had made a mess of Miss Smiley's hair.'

I think it needs a little extra something.

-I think you've done enough, Loretta.

-Wait, I've got it!

Things-on-sticks! They'll look wonderful in your hair.

-Good job I kept some for myself!

-In my hair? No!

'I had to find a way to stop Great Aunt Loretta.

'Suddenly, she went flying. So did her hat.

'Wulfy didn't waste a second.'

He's got my hat! Come back here, you wretched dog!

SHE PANTS

Come back here, you horrible mutt!

-'Miss Smiley grabbed her chance.'

-Thanks, Jason.

'She ran upstairs to find Mum. And I ran upstairs to get changed.

'At the toy shop, Mr Whoops and Dad were still looking for the ring.

'Grandpa was looking for the ring too and suddenly he saw it

'in the shape-sorter. In he went.'

Don't give up yet, Mr Whoops. The ring must be somewhere.

MR WHOOPS SOBS

'Grandpa had the ring.

'Now, all he had to do was roll it onto the floor

'to attract Dad's attention.'

Look!

The ring.

I'm sure it wasn't there a moment ago. I wonder how it got there.

Who cares? We've found it.

MWAH! Zing-a-ding-ding, what a beautiful ring!

I've got to go and fetch the bride. I'll see you at the cafe.

'Grandpa had to get home before Dad did, so he jumped off the counter,

'got into the plane and out he flew.

'Meanwhile, Great Aunt Loretta was trying to get her hat back.'

RUFF! RUFF! RUFF!

This is all Grandpa's fault. I'm going to wake him now.

-No, don't do that!

-Look! My hat!

I'll get your hat for you.

Thank you, Jason, you're a marvel.

I'll deal with you later.

'Great Aunt Loretta rushed to the toilet to put her hat back on

'just as Grandpa flew down the stairs.

'Grandpa took off his shrinking cap and came back to his normal size.

'And we all went off to the cafe.'

ALL MURMUR

'The wedding was about to begin. First, Mr Whoops arrived.'

Oh, look! It's Mr Whoops, he's here!

ALL APPLAUD

'Mr Whoops proudly held up the ring.'

Whoops!

Zing-a-ding-ding, what a beautiful ring!

-'Then, Miss Smiley arrived!'

-Here she is!

FANFARE PLAYS

'She looked very beautiful and very smiley.

'It was going to be a really wonderful wedding.

'I smiled at Grandpa and he smiled at me.

'As I knew that was how it was always going to be.

'Me, my Grandpa and teamwork.'
