0:14:02 > 0:14:05- BOTH:- Not the shrinking cap, Grandpa!
0:14:05 > 0:14:07Catch me if you can!
0:14:10 > 0:14:12Come down, Grandpa!
0:14:47 > 0:14:49It was a sunny afternoon.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52My brother Josh was playing football
0:14:52 > 0:14:55and I was playing a Captain Dumbletwit card game with Grandpa.
0:14:55 > 0:14:59And I think there's another Captain Dumbletwit there!
0:14:59 > 0:15:02- DOORBELL RINGS - 'We heard a visitor arrive.'
0:15:02 > 0:15:06Come in, come in! They're upstairs in the sitting room.
0:15:06 > 0:15:10- Oh, spectopular!- Who might that be? - 'It was Mr Mentor the inventor.'
0:15:10 > 0:15:13- Mr Mentor. What have you got? - My latest invention.
0:15:13 > 0:15:17In fact, I think it's my most wonderbubble invention ever.
0:15:17 > 0:15:22'Mr Mentor doesn't just invent things, he invents words too.'
0:15:22 > 0:15:23Show us, then.
0:15:23 > 0:15:25Ta-da!
0:15:25 > 0:15:27'Mr Mentor had invented...
0:15:27 > 0:15:30'the Wonderbubble Weather Watcher.'
0:15:33 > 0:15:37This tells you whether it's good weather for flying a kite,
0:15:37 > 0:15:41eating ice cream, dancing in puddles or building a snowman.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44And what if it points to this picture of a house?
0:15:44 > 0:15:48That means a terribubble storm is on its way and you must go home.
0:15:48 > 0:15:52- What's the weather going to be today? - I'll show you!
0:15:52 > 0:15:56'Mr Mentor pulled the lever and the arrow stopped on a boat.'
0:15:56 > 0:15:59It's the perfect weather for a boat trip.
0:15:59 > 0:16:02- In other words, warm and sunny with a slight breeze.- Oh.
0:16:02 > 0:16:06Which is why I've arranged to go sailing this afternoon
0:16:06 > 0:16:09with Bob's boat. I was hoping you'd come with me.
0:16:09 > 0:16:13- Yes, please!- Fabidiculous! I'll go and ask your aunt and uncle.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15Maybe we'll get a lift to the harbour.
0:16:15 > 0:16:18It was a long walk here and I love riding in Campo!
0:16:18 > 0:16:20'Grandpa wanted to take a closer look.'
0:16:20 > 0:16:22I think I'll take a closer look.
0:16:25 > 0:16:30'The machine made strange noises and the arrow spun round.'
0:16:30 > 0:16:35- It shouldn't be doing that. - What are you thinking, Grandpa?
0:16:35 > 0:16:39I'm thinking that I'd better come on this boat trip with you
0:16:39 > 0:16:44in case there's a problem with this Wonderbubble Weather Watcher
0:16:44 > 0:16:46that needs someone small.
0:16:46 > 0:16:49Not the shrinking cap, Grandpa!
0:16:49 > 0:16:50Catch me if you can!
0:16:50 > 0:16:54'You know what happens when Grandpa shrinks.
0:16:54 > 0:16:58'He runs about so fast I can't ever catch him.
0:16:58 > 0:17:01'He goes swoop, swoop on Gordon the toy seagull.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04'And zoom, zoom in Jason's car.
0:17:05 > 0:17:08'Sometimes, he flies in Josh's helicopter
0:17:08 > 0:17:10'or rides in the Sunnysands train.
0:17:10 > 0:17:14'And he loves flying on my Mrs Ostrich, which is odd,
0:17:14 > 0:17:17'because ostriches can't fly, actually.
0:17:17 > 0:17:20'Today, he was about to jump in my pocket
0:17:20 > 0:17:23'when we heard Uncle CJ come in.'
0:17:23 > 0:17:26Oh, I see Grandpa's gone for a little lie down.
0:17:26 > 0:17:28Jolly good, means I can have a dust around.
0:17:28 > 0:17:30Can I go on the boat trip?
0:17:30 > 0:17:33Of course! Auntie Jules is going to give you a lift.
0:17:33 > 0:17:38- Isn't this amazing? Mr Mentor's so clever.- Come along, come along!
0:17:38 > 0:17:40Bob will be waiting for us.
0:17:40 > 0:17:44'Mr Mentor picked up the Wonderbubble Weather Watcher
0:17:44 > 0:17:45'and we went out.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47'Uncle CJ stayed to do the tidying up,
0:17:47 > 0:17:51- 'which meant Grandpa couldn't get away!'- Bother!
0:17:51 > 0:17:57'So, Auntie Jules took us in Campo through the ford,
0:17:57 > 0:18:01'down the country lanes,
0:18:01 > 0:18:05'over the bridge, until at last we got to the harbour.
0:18:07 > 0:18:11'And there was Bob's boat - The Boomerang - waiting for us.
0:18:11 > 0:18:15'Bob's from Australia. He's new to Sunnysands.'
0:18:15 > 0:18:19- Hey, Elsie, want to come on deck and help me cast off?- You bet!
0:18:19 > 0:18:24'Mr Mentor stayed to look after his Wonderbubble Weather Watcher.
0:18:24 > 0:18:26'Soon, we were out at sea.
0:18:26 > 0:18:30'I was waiting for Grandpa but he hadn't turned up,
0:18:30 > 0:18:33'because he was hiding in a vase and he couldn't leave
0:18:33 > 0:18:37'until Uncle CJ had finished dusting.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44'At last, he left the room, so Grandpa could get away.'
0:18:47 > 0:18:48Phew!
0:18:53 > 0:18:57'He jumped into Jason's toy plane and took off. Wheee!
0:19:03 > 0:19:05'Mr Mentor was having a nap
0:19:05 > 0:19:09'when I came into the cabin with some bad news.'
0:19:09 > 0:19:11- Mr Mentor, wake up!- Oh!
0:19:11 > 0:19:14Bad news! The weather's changed.
0:19:14 > 0:19:16The sun's gone in and it's all shivery.
0:19:16 > 0:19:19And there's no wind, so we can't sail.
0:19:19 > 0:19:22- I've had to drop anchor. - That can't be right.
0:19:22 > 0:19:25My Wonderbubble Weather Watcher is still saying
0:19:25 > 0:19:28it's warm and sunny with a slight breeze. Look!
0:19:28 > 0:19:32- There's got to be something wrong with it.- Impossibubble!
0:19:32 > 0:19:36'I was wishing and wishing Grandpa was here. I needed him!'
0:19:36 > 0:19:38PLANE ENGINE ROARS
0:19:38 > 0:19:41'Luckily, he was just about to land on deck.'
0:19:42 > 0:19:46It can't be cold and grey and still, it just can't!
0:19:46 > 0:19:51'Then he sneaked into the cabin. I had to talk to Grandpa alone.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54'So I had a brilliant idea.'
0:19:54 > 0:19:58Why don't you go and look at the weather for yourselves?
0:19:58 > 0:20:02- Oh, very well. Although it's quite unnecessary.- Good idea, though.
0:20:02 > 0:20:05Come on. Come and have a look.
0:20:05 > 0:20:07'Now I could talk to Grandpa.'
0:20:07 > 0:20:09Guess what? You were right.
0:20:09 > 0:20:13The Wonderbubble Weather Watcher isn't working properly.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15- OK, I'll see what I can do.- Great!
0:20:15 > 0:20:19'And Grandpa ran across Bob's bed, jumped onto the floor,
0:20:19 > 0:20:22'hopped up onto the table and said...'
0:20:22 > 0:20:23Pull the lever, Elsie.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25'I pulled the lever...
0:20:26 > 0:20:30'..and the arrow on the Wonderbubble Weather Watcher span round and round
0:20:30 > 0:20:33'and landed on the snowman.'
0:20:33 > 0:20:38- Now it says it's snowing!- Mmmm.
0:20:38 > 0:20:41I'm going to have to take a look inside.
0:20:41 > 0:20:43'Then Bob and Mr Mentor came back.'
0:20:43 > 0:20:45This is very disappointabubble.
0:20:45 > 0:20:49- I must have done something wrong. I'll take a look.- No!
0:20:49 > 0:20:52Don't look inside. You might mess things up.
0:20:52 > 0:20:56- But it's not working properly. - It'll fix itself if you wait a bit.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58- Probably.- Well, it had better hurry up about it.
0:20:58 > 0:21:02- Maybe it's the parter starter.- Sure. - The twisty turnarator.- Right.
0:21:02 > 0:21:06It could be the wizzy wheeler. Or even the loopy lever!
0:21:06 > 0:21:11'Mr Mentor was in such a panic, he accidentally pushed Bob over!
0:21:11 > 0:21:16'All this time, Grandpa was inside the Wonderbubble Weather Watcher,
0:21:16 > 0:21:19'trying hard to mend it. Bob had hurt his arm.'
0:21:19 > 0:21:24- So sorry, Bob, I didn't mean to knock you over.- Ow, ow, ow!
0:21:26 > 0:21:28I know. It's OK, but now I'm hurt,
0:21:28 > 0:21:31we need to go straight back to Sunnysands.
0:21:31 > 0:21:34How can we if there's no wind for the sails?
0:21:34 > 0:21:37- We can use the motor instead. - I'll start it, Captain!
0:21:37 > 0:21:42You stay right there. I'll get that motor going quick as a flash!
0:21:42 > 0:21:47'I put the Wonderbubble Weather Watcher back on the table.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50'Grandpa was still inside,
0:21:50 > 0:21:53'busy fixing all the bits Mr Mentor had got wrong.
0:21:53 > 0:21:56'Bob called up to Mr Mentor on deck.'
0:21:56 > 0:21:59- How you doing up there? - Absolumptly fine.
0:21:59 > 0:22:01I had to fiddle about a bit,
0:22:01 > 0:22:02but I'll start the engine now.
0:22:02 > 0:22:08'So Mr Mentor started the engine and there was a terrible rattling noise
0:22:08 > 0:22:11'which got louder and louder and then it went...'
0:22:11 > 0:22:14- BANG! - That didn't sound too good.
0:22:14 > 0:22:18'Then back down the stairs he came and said...'
0:22:20 > 0:22:24I've broken the engine. I've broken the engine!
0:22:24 > 0:22:27Oh, and I can't fix it cos I've hurt my arm.
0:22:27 > 0:22:31'Grandpa came out of the Wonderbubble Weather Watcher...'
0:22:31 > 0:22:33- Oh, dear. - '..and found a new place to hide.'
0:22:35 > 0:22:39- How are we supposed to get it started?- I'm so sorry!
0:22:39 > 0:22:42This is turning into a terribubble boat trip.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44How are we going to get back to Sunnysands now?
0:22:44 > 0:22:48No worries, we'll wait for the wind to pick up again
0:22:48 > 0:22:49and we can use the sails.
0:22:49 > 0:22:53If only the Wonderbubble Weather Watcher was working properly,
0:22:53 > 0:22:56it could tell us how long we've got to wait.
0:22:56 > 0:22:58'Grandpa had mended it, so I said...'
0:22:58 > 0:23:03- Why don't we try it again? It might be working now.- How?
0:23:03 > 0:23:05It can't fix itself.
0:23:05 > 0:23:08Believe me, that sort of things happens all the time.
0:23:08 > 0:23:11'So Mr Mentor pulled the lever.
0:23:13 > 0:23:15'It was working!'
0:23:15 > 0:23:20Oh, it's working! Oh, yes!
0:23:20 > 0:23:23Oh, no! It's pointing to the little house.
0:23:23 > 0:23:26That means a terribubble storm is coming
0:23:26 > 0:23:30- and we've got to go home as quickly as we can.- That's all we need.
0:23:30 > 0:23:34If there's a storm, it'll be too dangerous to put up the sails.
0:23:34 > 0:23:40And I've broken the engine and you can't fix it. Help! Help! Disaster!
0:23:40 > 0:23:44'While Bob was trying to calm Mr Mentor down,
0:23:44 > 0:23:45'Grandpa called me over.'
0:23:45 > 0:23:49- I'm going to try to fix the engine. - Be careful.
0:23:51 > 0:23:54'He jumped down and ran off as fast as he could.'
0:23:54 > 0:23:58Terribubble storm is going to get us, and it's all my fault!
0:23:58 > 0:23:59We'll be OK.
0:23:59 > 0:24:03I'll call the coastguard and get someone to come and rescue us.
0:24:03 > 0:24:06- 'But just then, we heard this...' - ENGINE ROARS
0:24:06 > 0:24:11That's the engine - it started all by itself, just like your invention.
0:24:11 > 0:24:15- Fabidiculous!- Fabidiculous! - Fabidiculous!
0:24:15 > 0:24:18Means we can get home before the storm breaks.
0:24:18 > 0:24:21Let's get back to Sunnysands!
0:24:21 > 0:24:25'As soon as they'd gone, Grandpa appeared at the top of the steps.'
0:24:25 > 0:24:30- Grandpa!- That's the engine fixed, then.- You're so clever.
0:24:30 > 0:24:33It only needed somebody small. I'd better get back home.
0:24:33 > 0:24:36- Don't want to get caught in the storm.- No. Go now!
0:24:36 > 0:24:38I'll see you at the Mill.
0:24:39 > 0:24:40Phew!
0:24:42 > 0:24:44'Grandpa flew home as fast as he could
0:24:44 > 0:24:48'and Auntie Jules brought me home in Campo.
0:24:50 > 0:24:54'Grandpa jumped out of the plane, took off his shrinking cap
0:24:54 > 0:24:58'and came back to his normal size.'
0:24:58 > 0:25:01Wulfy, come on. Up you come!
0:25:04 > 0:25:09- Grandpa, you made it!- So did you, safe and sound.- All down to you.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12Oh, not all. You made sure Mr Mentor didn't find me
0:25:12 > 0:25:15in the Wonderbubble Weather Watcher.
0:25:15 > 0:25:18- It was teamwork.- Teamwork!
0:25:18 > 0:25:22Oh, Grandpa, you're back in your chair! And you're back too.
0:25:22 > 0:25:24THUNDER RUMBLES
0:25:24 > 0:25:28There's the storm the Wonderbubble Weather Watcher told us about.
0:25:28 > 0:25:31- That's why we came home early. - I'm glad you did.
0:25:31 > 0:25:36- What would we do without Mr Mentor's inventions, eh?- Can't imagine.
0:25:54 > 0:25:55Teamwork!
