0:00:11 > 0:00:13Come down, Grandpa!

0:00:22 > 0:00:24Ah!

0:00:34 > 0:00:36Grandpa!

0:00:48 > 0:00:53Welcome back to Sunnysands! And look who's here - Grandpa!

0:00:53 > 0:00:57He's living with our Auntie Jules, Uncle CJ

0:00:57 > 0:01:02and our grown-up cousins Jemima and Jason Mason.

0:01:02 > 0:01:07The family are now living here - at the Mill on the Marsh,

0:01:07 > 0:01:09which is a little hotel.

0:01:09 > 0:01:11I'm Josh, and this is my sister Elsie,

0:01:11 > 0:01:15and we've come to stay for the whole summer.

0:01:17 > 0:01:18Race you up the stairs, Elsie!

0:01:18 > 0:01:23- Careful, Josh. CJ:- They're so excited.

0:01:23 > 0:01:26- Whoa!- Come on, Wulfy, come on. - How you doing, you two?

0:01:26 > 0:01:29We went for a walk with Wulfy, and also Mrs Ostrich.

0:01:29 > 0:01:34Wow, is that a Captain Dumbletwit spaceship toy?

0:01:34 > 0:01:38'Captain Dumbletwit is everyone's favourite cartoon!'

0:01:38 > 0:01:41- Can you come to the beach and play with it, Jason?- Yeah!

0:01:41 > 0:01:45Sorry, I've got a football match. But Grandpa will play with you.

0:01:45 > 0:01:48But Grandpa's all...old.

0:01:48 > 0:01:52Yeah, he can't climb the stairs to our room or anything.

0:01:52 > 0:01:55Uh, you might be surprised.

0:01:55 > 0:01:59A day with Grandpa can be... well, magical.

0:02:02 > 0:02:04BOTH: What?!

0:02:04 > 0:02:05Yes, this was the day

0:02:05 > 0:02:07we found out we had...

0:02:11 > 0:02:14'Soon, we were showing Grandpa our toys.'

0:02:14 > 0:02:19Oh, I love Mrs Ostrich, Elsie. And I can't wait to fly in that.

0:02:19 > 0:02:21Don't be silly, Grandpa.

0:02:21 > 0:02:25- Oh, I'm not being silly, am I, Jason?- Not exactly.

0:02:25 > 0:02:29- 'Just then, Jemima arrived.' - I don't know where to start!

0:02:29 > 0:02:33'Jemima was doing a fashion course, and she had to make a prom dress.'

0:02:33 > 0:02:36- Can you play with us, Jemima? - Sorry, Elsie, busy.

0:02:36 > 0:02:38Grandpa will play with you.

0:02:38 > 0:02:40- Of course I can! What'll it be?

0:02:40 > 0:02:43Captain Dumbletwit? I've got the costume.

0:02:43 > 0:02:47- I'm going to get changed for football.- Oh, Jemima, you can't

0:02:47 > 0:02:51do cutting out in here. A very important hotel guest is arriving.

0:02:51 > 0:02:54How about the kitchen table?

0:02:54 > 0:02:56But downstairs in the kitchen,

0:02:56 > 0:02:59Great Aunt Loretta was doing all her washing.

0:02:59 > 0:03:01Oh, wish and a wash and a wish.

0:03:01 > 0:03:05Lucky pants. In you go.

0:03:05 > 0:03:08'There was no room for Jemima to do cutting out.'

0:03:10 > 0:03:12Captain Dumbletwit to the rescue!

0:03:12 > 0:03:16'Upstairs, Grandpa had dressed up.'

0:03:16 > 0:03:21- I love Jason's car.- Yes, well, that car can go very fast.- How can it?

0:03:21 > 0:03:24- It's not even radio-controlled. - The thing is,

0:03:24 > 0:03:27it doesn't need to be radio-controlled.

0:03:27 > 0:03:30All it needs...is this.

0:03:30 > 0:03:36- 'And Grandpa showed us an old black cap.'- It's an old black cap.

0:03:36 > 0:03:41Yes, and it's about time you both knew all about it. You see...

0:03:41 > 0:03:43it's a little bit magic.

0:03:45 > 0:03:51- Magic?- Yes. And when I put it on, it makes me a little bit magic too.

0:03:51 > 0:03:54- Do you want to see?- Yeah! - Yes, of course!

0:03:54 > 0:03:57Not the shrinking cap, Grandpa!

0:04:00 > 0:04:02- Wow.- Amazing.

0:04:02 > 0:04:04Catch me if you can!

0:04:10 > 0:04:16- I don't believe it.- We've got a magic grandpa...a shrinking one.

0:04:16 > 0:04:19There's no stopping me when I'm small.

0:04:19 > 0:04:22'And we found out, when our grandpa shrinks,

0:04:22 > 0:04:25'he can get up to all kinds of mischief.

0:04:25 > 0:04:28'He can run so fast you can't catch him.'

0:04:28 > 0:04:30'He can hide in teeny, tiny places.'

0:04:30 > 0:04:34'And his magic can make things go - like this!'

0:04:34 > 0:04:36'And this!'

0:04:39 > 0:04:42'But right now, he had to hide, cos Auntie Jules was coming.'

0:04:42 > 0:04:46- Grandpa gone for a little lie down, has he?- Nope, he's in...

0:04:46 > 0:04:47He's in the ship...

0:04:47 > 0:04:50'Why didn't Jason want me to say where Grandpa was?'

0:04:50 > 0:04:53Jason, you're too old for that now, you funny thing, you.

0:04:55 > 0:04:58- He's not in there, he's in the vase.- Yeah.

0:04:58 > 0:05:01The thing is, Elsie, only you,

0:05:01 > 0:05:05Josh and Jason know about my magic shrinking cap.

0:05:05 > 0:05:09All the grown-ups think he's gone for a lie down when he's small.

0:05:09 > 0:05:13You see, when I'm small, I can sort out loads of problems.

0:05:13 > 0:05:17- Jason and I have had no end of adventures together.- Yep.

0:05:17 > 0:05:19But now I'm not around as much any more,

0:05:19 > 0:05:22you two can help Grandpa, right?

0:05:22 > 0:05:26- BOTH:- Right!- I've got to go now, good luck.

0:05:26 > 0:05:28So, are you ready for this?

0:05:28 > 0:05:31Elsie, Josh, are we a team?

0:05:31 > 0:05:33Of course we are! 'We really wanted to be a team with Grandpa.

0:05:33 > 0:05:38'Then we heard Great Aunt Loretta - singing.'

0:05:38 > 0:05:40# I do love to see me washing flap about. #

0:05:40 > 0:05:43'Just then, Great Aunt Loretta's pants

0:05:43 > 0:05:45'were blown off the washing line.'

0:05:45 > 0:05:50- Loretta!- 'Upstairs, I was learning how to pick Grandpa up.

0:05:50 > 0:05:54'He was just about to take his cap off and unshrink, when we heard...

0:05:54 > 0:05:58- Me lucky pants!- 'And they flew straight past the window.'

0:05:58 > 0:06:03- Oh, no. - It's Great Aunt Loretta's pants.

0:06:03 > 0:06:06They've blown into the big tree in the meadow.

0:06:06 > 0:06:09You'll get used to this kind of thing.

0:06:09 > 0:06:10THEY LAUGH

0:06:10 > 0:06:14Oh, Loretta, how are we going to get your pants down?

0:06:14 > 0:06:16- I don't know! - This is so embarrassing.

0:06:16 > 0:06:19'The last thing Auntie Jules wanted was for an

0:06:19 > 0:06:22'important guest to see Great Aunt Loretta's pants.

0:06:22 > 0:06:24'But Grandpa had a plan.'

0:06:24 > 0:06:28You two go outside and distract the visitor when they arrive.

0:06:28 > 0:06:30I am going in here.

0:06:30 > 0:06:33Captain Dumbletwit to the rescue!

0:06:33 > 0:06:38'Captain Dumbletwit got into his spaceship, and the lights flashed.

0:06:38 > 0:06:41'And it took off!'

0:06:41 > 0:06:44'It flew around the room...

0:06:44 > 0:06:46'and straight up the chimney!

0:06:47 > 0:06:49'We had a job to do.

0:06:50 > 0:06:54'Grandpa flew out of the chimney, and we ran into the meadow.'

0:06:54 > 0:06:58'And just then, Uncle CJ arrived, in Queenie, his boat,

0:06:58 > 0:07:01'with the very important visitor.'

0:07:01 > 0:07:07- This is our very important visitor, a famous astronomer in fact.- Olga.

0:07:07 > 0:07:09Olga Orbit.

0:07:09 > 0:07:10What's an astrobalala?

0:07:10 > 0:07:14An astronomer is someone who studies the stars and the planets.

0:07:14 > 0:07:19Oh, and what a magnificent place for stargazing. So much sky!

0:07:20 > 0:07:23'Olga Orbit was just about to see the pants in the tree

0:07:23 > 0:07:25'when Josh went...'

0:07:25 > 0:07:26Look over there!

0:07:29 > 0:07:31More sky! Sky everywhere!

0:07:32 > 0:07:35I'll take your case in for you, Olga.

0:07:35 > 0:07:38Do come on in when you've had enough of the...sky.

0:07:38 > 0:07:43You can never have enough of the sky! Take a look.

0:07:43 > 0:07:50Stars, planets, galaxies, meteors, universes...outer space.

0:07:50 > 0:07:52I do love outer space.

0:07:52 > 0:07:56- 'At that moment, she saw something.' - Jickety Jupiter, it can't be!

0:07:57 > 0:08:03It is. Oh, galloping galaxies, it's a spaceship!

0:08:03 > 0:08:04SHE GASPS

0:08:04 > 0:08:10It's Captain Dumbletwit's spaceship. Oh, this is magical!

0:08:10 > 0:08:14'Grandpa flew over the marsh.'

0:08:14 > 0:08:16I had no idea Captain Dumbletwit was real,

0:08:16 > 0:08:19I thought he was just a cartoon.

0:08:19 > 0:08:22Rollicking rockets, you learn something new

0:08:22 > 0:08:24every day about the universe!

0:08:24 > 0:08:26We must go and tell your uncle.

0:08:26 > 0:08:29Captain Dumbletwit to the rescue!

0:08:34 > 0:08:36'Just then, Grandpa came back.

0:08:36 > 0:08:40'He whisked the pants off the tree and came to talk to us.

0:08:40 > 0:08:43'I took the pants off the spaceship.'

0:08:43 > 0:08:48Call up the chimney when it's safe for me to land. I'll be on the roof.

0:08:48 > 0:08:51(OK.) 'And off he flew!'

0:08:52 > 0:08:57'But Wulfy jumped up and grabbed the pants, and ran inside.'

0:08:57 > 0:09:02Oh, Wulfy, how marvellous. They must have blown down again. Loretta?

0:09:02 > 0:09:06'Upstairs, Olga Orbit was going on about the spaceship.'

0:09:06 > 0:09:11- A spaceship?!- Not just any spaceship - Captain Dumbletwit's.

0:09:11 > 0:09:14It's real. I saw it with my very own eyes.

0:09:14 > 0:09:17You might need to get them tested if you ask me.

0:09:17 > 0:09:23Oh, Loretta, um, downstairs, something for you, in the kitchen.

0:09:26 > 0:09:31- Let me show you to your room, Olga. - Oh, me lucky pants!

0:09:31 > 0:09:35Don't know what all the fuss is about Olga Orbit seeing me pants.

0:09:35 > 0:09:38She's clearly bonkers.

0:09:40 > 0:09:43'It was time for us to call for Grandpa.'

0:09:43 > 0:09:44Now, Grandpa.

0:09:44 > 0:09:45'And down he flew.

0:09:48 > 0:09:50'And landed on the floor.'

0:09:53 > 0:09:56Josh, pick up the spaceship, so Olga doesn't see it.

0:09:58 > 0:10:03- Unshrink, Grandpa. - How do I do that?- Cap off.

0:10:03 > 0:10:05OK.

0:10:08 > 0:10:13Oh, well done, you two! Olga didn't see the pants.

0:10:13 > 0:10:17But she saw the spaceship, and she thought it was real.

0:10:17 > 0:10:20It made her day, we're a team already.

0:10:20 > 0:10:25Teamwork, I say. ALL: Teamwork!

0:10:25 > 0:10:29'Just then, Olga Orbit came back.'

0:10:29 > 0:10:33Staggering starbursts, I don't believe it! Captain Dumbletwit?

0:10:36 > 0:10:41The real, living and breathing Captain Dumbletwit?

0:10:43 > 0:10:49- Oh, there you are, Grandpa.- I am so delighted to meet you, Captain!

0:10:49 > 0:10:52Up until today I thought you were just a cartoon.

0:10:52 > 0:10:57Oh, this really is the best hotel in the universe!

0:10:57 > 0:10:59'But then, this happened.'

0:10:59 > 0:11:03Come back here with me pants, you bad dog!

0:11:03 > 0:11:07- Well, almost the best hotel in the universe.

0:11:14 > 0:11:16'That night at bedtime,

0:11:16 > 0:11:19'I couldn't believe what an amazing day we'd had.

0:11:19 > 0:11:21'Neither could Elsie.'

0:11:21 > 0:11:28- I love it here, Josh.- Me too. And we have a magic grandpa!

0:11:28 > 0:11:30Yup.

0:11:30 > 0:11:34- Does anyone else have a magic grandpa?- I don't think so.
