0:00:01 > 0:00:03BOTH: Not the shrinking cap, Grandpa!

0:00:05 > 0:00:06Catch me if you can!

0:00:10 > 0:00:11Come down, Grandpa!

0:00:33 > 0:00:34Grandpa!

0:00:47 > 0:00:50'It was a lovely day at the Mill on the Marsh.

0:00:50 > 0:00:55'My brother, Josh, and my cousin, Jason, had gone on a tennis course.

0:00:55 > 0:00:57'So I had Grandpa all to myself.'

0:00:57 > 0:01:02Snap! Ha-ha! Two pot plants. Wah.

0:01:02 > 0:01:05'We were playing Dumbletwit snap, when Jemima came in.'

0:01:05 > 0:01:10- Jemima!- You look amazing. Where did you get that top?

0:01:10 > 0:01:12I made it, my own design.

0:01:12 > 0:01:14'Jemima is doing a fashion course this summer,

0:01:14 > 0:01:18'but she'd come home for the weekend.'

0:01:18 > 0:01:21Me and Dad are going to pick Barnaby up from the station.

0:01:21 > 0:01:25'Barnaby was Jemima's new boyfriend and he was coming round for tea.'

0:01:25 > 0:01:28I can't wait to meet him, he sounds really cool.

0:01:28 > 0:01:31He is incredibly cool - the coolest boyfriend ever.

0:01:31 > 0:01:33That's why I'm so worried.

0:01:33 > 0:01:34What do you mean?

0:01:34 > 0:01:37Well, you know how Mum and Dad can be - really embarrassing.

0:01:37 > 0:01:39And Great Aunt Loretta...

0:01:39 > 0:01:43Oh, don't worry. We'll be on our best behaviour, won't we, Elsie?

0:01:43 > 0:01:44Promise.

0:01:44 > 0:01:49'Yes, we were all going to be on our best behaviour for Barnaby.'

0:01:53 > 0:01:56Ready, Jemima? Shall we go in Queenie?

0:01:56 > 0:01:57OK. But no singing

0:01:57 > 0:01:59# Oh-eh, and up she rises! #

0:01:59 > 0:02:01In front of Barnaby.

0:02:01 > 0:02:03I don't sing it like that!

0:02:03 > 0:02:04BOTH: You do.

0:02:04 > 0:02:06Come on, we're off.

0:02:06 > 0:02:09I've made sandwiches and a huge chocolate cake,

0:02:09 > 0:02:10so we're ready for Barnaby.

0:02:10 > 0:02:12Excellent. I'll go and tidy up.

0:02:12 > 0:02:15Good idea, Grandpa. No need to rush, we're well ahead.

0:02:15 > 0:02:18In fact, I've even got time to practise my new hobby.

0:02:21 > 0:02:24'Aunty Jules' new hobby was this!

0:02:24 > 0:02:26'Dancing the Sunnysands' Summer Stomp.

0:02:27 > 0:02:32'Soon, Jemima, Uncle CJ and Barnaby were on their way back to the Mill

0:02:32 > 0:02:33'and Jemima said...'

0:02:33 > 0:02:35There's the Mill, Barnaby.

0:02:35 > 0:02:37'And Uncle CJ said...'

0:02:37 > 0:02:41# Oh-eh, and up she rises Oh-eh, and up she rises... #

0:02:41 > 0:02:43- 'And Jemima said...' - Dad!

0:02:43 > 0:02:46- 'And Uncle CJ said...' - Sorry.

0:02:46 > 0:02:48'And soon they arrived in the meadow.'

0:02:48 > 0:02:51Oh, they're here!

0:02:52 > 0:02:54Barnaby!

0:02:54 > 0:02:56Welcome to the Mill on the Marsh.

0:02:56 > 0:02:59I'm Jules, Jemima's mum.

0:02:59 > 0:03:02Hi. This is such a cool place.

0:03:02 > 0:03:05Mum, why are you dressed like that?

0:03:05 > 0:03:08It's the Sunnysands' Summer Stomp. It's my latest hobby.

0:03:08 > 0:03:11Have you danced the Sunnysands' Summer Stomp, Barnaby?

0:03:11 > 0:03:13It's great fun.

0:03:13 > 0:03:15MUSIC PLAYS

0:03:15 > 0:03:19'They started dancing, but Jemima couldn't bear it.'

0:03:19 > 0:03:21- Stop it!- Stop it, now!

0:03:21 > 0:03:23Whoa, Jemima, it's OK.

0:03:23 > 0:03:24No, it's not.

0:03:24 > 0:03:28Come on, Barnaby. Let's go inside and get something to eat.

0:03:28 > 0:03:31'And Jemima took Barnaby off to the kitchen.'

0:03:32 > 0:03:35Sorry about my parents, they are so uncool.

0:03:35 > 0:03:38I'd never dress up and dance about like that, never.

0:03:38 > 0:03:41Oh, Elsie, come and meet Barnaby.

0:03:41 > 0:03:42- Hi.- Hi.

0:03:42 > 0:03:47Elsie, you sit over here, CJ - over there, and save this seat

0:03:47 > 0:03:50for Grandpa, he's still tidying himself up.

0:03:50 > 0:03:52This is amazing, is this all for us?

0:03:52 > 0:03:53VOICE CALLS OUT: Coo-ee!

0:03:53 > 0:03:55Apparently not.

0:03:55 > 0:03:57'It was Great Aunt Loretta.'

0:03:57 > 0:03:59It's only me.

0:03:59 > 0:04:00That's all I need.

0:04:02 > 0:04:05I saw you had visitors, so I thought I'd come and say hello.

0:04:05 > 0:04:08Ooh-hoo, who is this young man with the funny hairdo?

0:04:08 > 0:04:11This is Jemima's boyfriend, Barnaby.

0:04:11 > 0:04:12Boyfriend, eh?

0:04:12 > 0:04:15Boyfriend, ooh. I'm Great Aunt Loretta.

0:04:15 > 0:04:17Oh, if I'd known you were coming,

0:04:17 > 0:04:21I'd have made you a sardine and strawberry trifle.

0:04:21 > 0:04:22Ooh-hoo, whoo, hoo-hoo.

0:04:22 > 0:04:27- Ha.- Oh, I'm so hungry I could eat a hippo.

0:04:27 > 0:04:29Pass me them sandwiches, Barnacle.

0:04:29 > 0:04:30It's Barnaby.

0:04:30 > 0:04:35Ooh, I've been so busy having a clear out, I forgot to have lunch. Hoo!

0:04:35 > 0:04:40Anyway, I've found something of yours, Jemima.

0:04:40 > 0:04:43Ooh. Fetch me that box, Barnacle.

0:04:43 > 0:04:44It's Barnaby.

0:04:44 > 0:04:46Jules, you'll remember this.

0:04:46 > 0:04:50Ooh-hoo-hoo, look at this. Look at this. Oh.

0:04:50 > 0:04:53'And she took out a funny doll.'

0:04:53 > 0:04:55I bought you this, do you remember?

0:04:55 > 0:04:57It used to be your favourite little dolly.

0:04:57 > 0:05:00It's revolting, I've never seen it in my life.

0:05:00 > 0:05:02Oh, don't tell fibs, you used to love her!

0:05:02 > 0:05:07She's a bit broken now. But, you used to pull the string, make her talk.

0:05:07 > 0:05:10I remember, you used to run around saying, "I want to dance,

0:05:10 > 0:05:12"I want to dance."

0:05:12 > 0:05:14'Jemima was really embarrassed.'

0:05:14 > 0:05:16- In your little lacy petticoat. - No, I didn't.

0:05:16 > 0:05:18Honestly, Barnaby, I didn't.

0:05:18 > 0:05:21I'd never do something as uncool as that.

0:05:22 > 0:05:24You're all impossible.

0:05:24 > 0:05:26'And Jemima ran upstairs.'

0:05:28 > 0:05:31Go and ask Grandpa to go up and see her, Elsie.

0:05:31 > 0:05:35He'll make her feel better, he always does.

0:05:35 > 0:05:38I don't know what all the fuss is about. Oh-hoo-hoo.

0:05:38 > 0:05:41I'm always dancing around in my little lacy petticoat.

0:05:41 > 0:05:43Aren't you, Barnacle?

0:05:43 > 0:05:45BARNABY!

0:05:45 > 0:05:48'I fetched Grandpa straightaway. Jemima was upset.'

0:05:52 > 0:05:54There, there, there.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57It's not so bad, is it?

0:05:57 > 0:06:01It is. Mum's dressed in silly clothes, Dad's singing and dancing,

0:06:01 > 0:06:05and Great Aunt Loretta's just told Barnaby that I used to dance

0:06:05 > 0:06:07in a lacy petticoat with this stupid doll.

0:06:07 > 0:06:11He doesn't mind. I like him, and I'm sure he likes us.

0:06:11 > 0:06:15I bet he really thinks we're the uncoolest family in the universe.

0:06:16 > 0:06:21It's not fair. Why can't everyone be totally normal, like you, Grandpa?

0:06:21 > 0:06:25Well, nobody's totally normal, not really.

0:06:25 > 0:06:29Now, why don't you dry those tears and go back downstairs.

0:06:29 > 0:06:32Everything's going to be all right. I promise.

0:06:35 > 0:06:39'Jemima felt so much better now.'

0:06:39 > 0:06:41Aren't you coming down too, Grandpa?

0:06:41 > 0:06:45Oh, yes, very soon. I think I'll just have a little lie down first.

0:06:45 > 0:06:48- OK.- Now, off you go. - But don't be too long.- I won't.

0:06:51 > 0:06:55I've got to try and make Jemima calm down and relax, and I've got an idea,

0:06:55 > 0:06:58but you're going to have to help me, Elsie.

0:06:58 > 0:07:00(Not the shrinking cap, Grandpa!)

0:07:01 > 0:07:03Catch me if you can!

0:07:03 > 0:07:06'You know what happens when Grandpa shrinks.

0:07:06 > 0:07:09'He runs and jumps about all over the place.

0:07:10 > 0:07:13'He can zoom around in Jason's car.

0:07:15 > 0:07:17'And fly his toy plane.

0:07:18 > 0:07:22'He even makes my Mrs Ostrich fly, which is amazing,

0:07:22 > 0:07:25'cos Ostriches can't fly, actually.

0:07:25 > 0:07:30'But today, he was staying right here, because his plan was this...

0:07:30 > 0:07:32'He'd dressed up in Jemima's doll's clothes.'

0:07:32 > 0:07:34How do I look?

0:07:34 > 0:07:37Well, you'll need some hair, or everyone will recognise you.

0:07:37 > 0:07:39And a string on your back, to pull.

0:07:39 > 0:07:42Have a look in Aunty Jules' bits and bobs box.

0:07:42 > 0:07:44She usually has some wool in there.

0:07:44 > 0:07:48Use that to make the string, and make me some yellow plaits.

0:07:49 > 0:07:50OK, I'll try.

0:07:54 > 0:07:55'So, I set to work.

0:07:57 > 0:08:01'Downstairs, in the kitchen, things weren't going too well.'

0:08:01 > 0:08:04Green gloop, oh, this'll put hairs on your chest.

0:08:04 > 0:08:09'Great Aunt Loretta's green gloop is spinach and sprout shake,

0:08:09 > 0:08:10'her favourite.'

0:08:10 > 0:08:13Drink it all. Come on, it'll do you good, Barnacle.

0:08:13 > 0:08:17How many more times - it's Barnaby, Barnaby, Barnaby.

0:08:17 > 0:08:19Come on, let's go to the meadow.

0:08:19 > 0:08:21Jemima, I haven't drank it yet.

0:08:21 > 0:08:23Oh, well, I'll have it then.

0:08:23 > 0:08:28'And Great Aunt Loretta took a HUGE gulp of gloop.

0:08:28 > 0:08:32'Soon, Grandpa had his woolly plaits on, a string in his back,

0:08:32 > 0:08:37'and I'd used Jemima's lip gloss to give him some rosy cheeks.'

0:08:37 > 0:08:38- Better?- Much better.

0:08:38 > 0:08:40Now what, Grandpa?

0:08:40 > 0:08:43Right, now you can take me downstairs.

0:08:44 > 0:08:47'Jemima and Barnaby were sitting in the meadow,

0:08:47 > 0:08:50'but they didn't know what to say to each other.'

0:08:50 > 0:08:53So... Right.

0:08:54 > 0:08:59Yeah, well, I suppose you want to go home now.

0:08:59 > 0:09:04'Just then, I came into the meadow, holding the dancing doll,

0:09:04 > 0:09:06'but actually, it was Grandpa.'

0:09:06 > 0:09:09Please, Elsie, not the horrid old doll. She doesn't even work.

0:09:09 > 0:09:12- She does now, let me show you. - No, take her away.

0:09:12 > 0:09:15No, go on, I want to hear her.

0:09:15 > 0:09:18'I put Grandpa on the table, then I pulled the string,

0:09:18 > 0:09:20'and Grandpa did this...'

0:09:20 > 0:09:23# Dance with me, dance with me

0:09:23 > 0:09:28# How happy you will be if you dance with me. #

0:09:28 > 0:09:32She's cute, in a weird sort of way. Make her talk again, Elsie.

0:09:34 > 0:09:36# Dance with me, dance with me

0:09:36 > 0:09:41How happy you will be if you dance with me. #

0:09:41 > 0:09:44Hey, you did dance around with her, didn't you?

0:09:44 > 0:09:48- Yeah, OK.- That's cool, I used to dance around with my toy giraffe.

0:09:48 > 0:09:49Ha-ha!

0:09:49 > 0:09:51'Grandpa's plan was working.'

0:09:51 > 0:09:53# Dance with me, dance with me

0:09:53 > 0:09:57# How happy you will be if you dance with me. #

0:09:57 > 0:10:01- I think we should dance now. - You do?- Yeah.

0:10:01 > 0:10:04Hey, we could do the Sunnysands' Summer Stomp.

0:10:05 > 0:10:08'We'd done it! Jemima had cheered up.'

0:10:10 > 0:10:14- Take me inside now, I want to get changed.- OK.

0:10:14 > 0:10:16'So, I picked him up.'

0:10:16 > 0:10:19It's all sorted. Jemima and Barnaby are doing

0:10:19 > 0:10:21the Sunnysands' Summer Stomp.

0:10:21 > 0:10:23They're what?

0:10:23 > 0:10:27Ooh, I love a good stomp, me. Come on, let's go and join them.

0:10:27 > 0:10:30'So they all rushed off to the meadow.

0:10:30 > 0:10:32'Jemima and Barnaby were dancing, and laughing,

0:10:32 > 0:10:34'and having a great time.'

0:10:34 > 0:10:38Your family are really cool. I might even change my name to 'Barnacle'.

0:10:38 > 0:10:39Go on, I dare you.

0:10:39 > 0:10:41Ha-ha.

0:10:43 > 0:10:45Come and join in, everyone.

0:10:45 > 0:10:48There's plenty of hankies and bells for everyone.

0:10:48 > 0:10:51'Meanwhile, I put the clothes back on the little doll,

0:10:51 > 0:10:53'and Grandpa took off his cap.'

0:10:53 > 0:10:57We did it, Elsie. We got Jemima to calm down and relax.

0:10:57 > 0:10:59Well done with the yellow plaits.

0:10:59 > 0:11:01It was just teamwork, Grandpa.

0:11:01 > 0:11:03Yeah, right - teamwork!

0:11:03 > 0:11:04BOTH: Ha-ha-ha.

0:11:04 > 0:11:06Now, off you go and join the others.

0:11:09 > 0:11:12'Now I was doing the Sunnysands' Summer Stomp too.

0:11:12 > 0:11:15'And Grandpa came out to watch us.'

0:11:15 > 0:11:19- Grandpa, at last! You were ages. - I'm sorry, everything all right now?

0:11:19 > 0:11:21Fine, no problem at all.

0:11:21 > 0:11:24Come and say hello to Barnaby, he's desperate to meet you.

0:11:24 > 0:11:28Good, and then, 'how happy will you be if you dance with me.'

0:11:28 > 0:11:30Please, don't do that in front of Barnaby.

0:11:55 > 0:11:56Teamwork!
