0:00:03 > 0:00:06- GENIE:- I was delighted when Jamillah was born.

0:00:06 > 0:00:09The seventh child is always a lucky child.

0:00:10 > 0:00:14Her big brothers adored her, and she adored them.

0:00:17 > 0:00:20Her grandfather, Jiddo, told her magical stories,

0:00:20 > 0:00:23which is how she learned about me.

0:00:23 > 0:00:26Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Who drew that? I'm way handsomer.

0:00:27 > 0:00:30Jamillah grew up to be courageous.

0:00:32 > 0:00:34One rainy day, Jiddo sent her up to the attic

0:00:34 > 0:00:36to get a box from his trunk.

0:00:44 > 0:00:47Boy, was she in for a surprise!

0:00:50 > 0:00:55If any genies are listening, could you give me a wish?

0:00:55 > 0:00:57Your wish is my command.

0:00:57 > 0:00:59SHE SQUEALS, GASPS

0:01:02 > 0:01:04Listen, don't go dropping the lamp again, OK?

0:01:04 > 0:01:09But, greetings, o wondrous one! Tell me your wish.

0:01:11 > 0:01:15I wish for an...

0:01:15 > 0:01:17..adventure.

0:02:04 > 0:02:06SIGHS

0:02:11 > 0:02:12Patience, please.

0:02:12 > 0:02:14I'm sure our exalted guest will be here any moment.

0:02:14 > 0:02:17I heard they said the prince was seven feet tall and had

0:02:17 > 0:02:21muscles like watermelons and wrestled tigers to keep fit.

0:02:21 > 0:02:24I, Prince Bashir of Karesmia,

0:02:24 > 0:02:27would like to thank the becitizens of Sagdad...

0:02:27 > 0:02:29No, I mean "citizens of Baghdad."

0:02:29 > 0:02:31What am I thanking them for again?

0:02:31 > 0:02:34Their kind welcome and treaty of friendship.

0:02:34 > 0:02:36Right.

0:02:36 > 0:02:40Citizens of Baghdad, for the trendy freety of... Trendy f...

0:02:40 > 0:02:44Why did father make me do this? I'm rubbish at speeches.

0:02:44 > 0:02:47Worry not, Your Highness. I will look after you.

0:02:47 > 0:02:50Maybe we'll get lucky enough, and no-one will turn up.

0:02:50 > 0:02:51What's that noise?

0:02:56 > 0:03:00I may be very short-sighted, but there seems to be a big crowd.

0:03:00 > 0:03:05In fact, I can't remember the last time I saw such a...

0:03:05 > 0:03:06Your Highness?

0:03:07 > 0:03:10- Your Highness! - Ugh.

0:03:10 > 0:03:12I am so, so sorry.

0:03:12 > 0:03:15- What is that?- Chocolate chip cookie dough, with a scoop of strawberry.

0:03:15 > 0:03:18Do you need that washed? I know someone that's really fast.

0:03:18 > 0:03:21Your Highness! Where are you?

0:03:23 > 0:03:26- You take me to this someone, right? Hurry.- Yeah.

0:03:26 > 0:03:27Where are you?

0:03:29 > 0:03:34Aladdin? Genie? Hello.

0:03:34 > 0:03:41- Illustrious mistress.- Genie, this is Bashir. Bashir, this is Genie.

0:03:41 > 0:03:43He's sort of an odd-job man.

0:03:43 > 0:03:47- We've had a little accident. Can you fix it?- Of course.

0:03:47 > 0:03:51Though not my usual methods, these tough ground-in stains require

0:03:51 > 0:03:55a tub of hot water and mounds of soapy suds.

0:03:55 > 0:03:58Step behind the curtain and pass me your tunic.

0:04:06 > 0:04:09This is a handmade robe of the finest material.

0:04:09 > 0:04:11A gift from Genie.

0:04:12 > 0:04:16- I have to walk around in that? - Of course you don't.

0:04:16 > 0:04:18Walk around in your underpants if you'd rather.

0:04:24 > 0:04:29# Now you can wash away your troubles

0:04:29 > 0:04:31# With a bowl of soapy bubbles

0:04:31 > 0:04:35# You can scrub away your sorrows with a basin full of suds. #

0:04:35 > 0:04:38SNEEZES, COUGHS

0:04:39 > 0:04:41Not bad.

0:04:42 > 0:04:45- Oh, Jamillah, when did you get here? - Well...

0:04:47 > 0:04:49- Hello. - Who are you?

0:04:49 > 0:04:53This is Bashir. I kind of bumped into him.

0:04:53 > 0:04:57- Er, you're not from around here, are you?- Er, no.

0:04:57 > 0:05:02- And you're wearing a curtain. - I suppose I'd better tell you.

0:05:02 > 0:05:03I am the Prince of Karesmia.

0:05:06 > 0:05:08- No, you're not. - Yes, I am.

0:05:08 > 0:05:09- No, you're not. - Yes, he is.

0:05:11 > 0:05:17Well, the Prince of Karesmia should be seven foot tall,

0:05:17 > 0:05:19and have muscles like watermelons.

0:05:21 > 0:05:24Yours are like tangerines.

0:05:24 > 0:05:27Well, I am the prince. How do I prove it to you?

0:05:27 > 0:05:30Well, you could wrestle a tiger.

0:05:30 > 0:05:33Or you could show us your royal seal.

0:05:33 > 0:05:36- See, cos every prince has a royal seal.- Really?

0:05:36 > 0:05:39It's almost guaranteed that a prince should have...

0:05:42 > 0:05:44Your Highness! Sorry, it's just you're a bit...

0:05:45 > 0:05:48..shorter than I expected.

0:05:48 > 0:05:49I get that a lot.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55- OK. - Now for the drying cycle.

0:05:57 > 0:06:01Magic breath, so hot and keen, walan shamal kamazeen!

0:06:06 > 0:06:08Oops.

0:06:08 > 0:06:10So, why didn't you give your speech this morning?

0:06:10 > 0:06:14Well, I panicked, that's why. I get nervous in front of people.

0:06:14 > 0:06:16But you're a prince.

0:06:16 > 0:06:18I didn't ask to be one, and in fact, I wish I wasn't.

0:06:18 > 0:06:20But you live in a palace.

0:06:20 > 0:06:24- Hundreds of servants.- Well, do you fancy a swap?- Absolutely.

0:06:24 > 0:06:26Wonder what's taking him so long.

0:06:26 > 0:06:28Genie, how's it going with the tunic?

0:06:29 > 0:06:32It's spotless. Clean as the day it was made.

0:06:32 > 0:06:36There's just a teeny tiny problem.

0:06:39 > 0:06:41Oh, no, it's shrunk!

0:06:41 > 0:06:42Can't you fix it?

0:06:42 > 0:06:45What do you think I've been trying to do all this time?

0:06:45 > 0:06:47If only we knew someone it would fit.

0:06:55 > 0:06:58- Ta-da!- Wow! - It's not bad.

0:07:03 > 0:07:07Even better, but there's still one thing missing.

0:07:23 > 0:07:25Right, let's go see if I can fool the neighbours.

0:07:28 > 0:07:31So, what does a prince actually say to his citizens?

0:07:31 > 0:07:35Well, you normally tell them how wonderful they are.

0:07:35 > 0:07:37"Most illustrious citizens,

0:07:37 > 0:07:40"what an honour it is to be in such a magnificent city."

0:07:42 > 0:07:44And don't forget the royal wave.

0:07:45 > 0:07:48Most illustrious citizens, what an...

0:07:48 > 0:07:51Your Highness! I've been looking for you everywhere!

0:07:52 > 0:07:55- I'm...- Tell me later, sire. Everyone's waiting.

0:07:56 > 0:07:58He thinks it's you!

0:07:58 > 0:08:01Well, Wasif's eyesight isn't very good. At all.

0:08:03 > 0:08:06- How good is Aladdin at giving speeches?- Aha!

0:08:09 > 0:08:13I assure you, the prince will be here any m... Wait, here he is!

0:08:14 > 0:08:16You've got this, sire.

0:08:18 > 0:08:21I beg your forgiveness for the delay...

0:08:21 > 0:08:23- He's not going to go through with this, is he?- Are you kidding?

0:08:23 > 0:08:25This is Aladdin's dream come true.

0:08:25 > 0:08:30It is now my honour to introduce our most esteemed guest,

0:08:30 > 0:08:35His Highness Prince Bashir of Karesmia!

0:08:38 > 0:08:40Illustrious citizens,

0:08:40 > 0:08:43I can't tell you what an honour it is to be here in Baghdad.

0:08:46 > 0:08:49I've seen pyramids in Egypt, dragons in Mongolia,

0:08:49 > 0:08:54and compared to this place, they were absolutely rubbish.

0:08:54 > 0:08:58Do you know I can wrestle tigers with one arm behind my back?

0:08:58 > 0:09:01Not only tigers, but lions and elephants too.

0:09:03 > 0:09:05You know, when I'm done wrestling, I just snap my fingers and...

0:09:05 > 0:09:09Genie, the moustache. Do something!

0:09:09 > 0:09:11Farabala afisu.

0:09:19 > 0:09:21What on earth is going on here?

0:09:21 > 0:09:23- Abaraf aban usi.

0:09:26 > 0:09:28- What? - GASPS

0:09:34 > 0:09:38Wait. I know that face.

0:09:38 > 0:09:41He's an impostor! Seize him!

0:09:41 > 0:09:43Hurry! Go, go, go, go!

0:09:43 > 0:09:44I don't understand.

0:09:44 > 0:09:47If that's not the prince, then where is the prince?

0:09:59 > 0:10:01- Got you! - Waah!- Come on.

0:10:05 > 0:10:12I apologise for this most grievous and insidious trick.

0:10:12 > 0:10:15It will not go unpunished.

0:10:20 > 0:10:21Wait.

0:10:23 > 0:10:27I am Bashir, Prince of Karesmia.

0:10:27 > 0:10:30- Another one! - CHUCKLES

0:10:30 > 0:10:33Baghdad is crawling with princes today.

0:10:36 > 0:10:41The outfit is most unseemly, and where did you get those tassels?

0:10:41 > 0:10:45But, yes, this is Bashir, I am sure of it.

0:10:45 > 0:10:50- - You seemed sure last time.- Well, perhaps this will convince you.

0:10:56 > 0:11:00Your Highness! My apologies.

0:11:02 > 0:11:03This...

0:11:06 > 0:11:09This brave young man wasn't playing a trick.

0:11:11 > 0:11:14We feared that my father's enemies might try to harm me,

0:11:14 > 0:11:17and he volunteered to act as my decoy.

0:11:19 > 0:11:21Is that true?

0:11:23 > 0:11:28- Um, yeah, absolutely. - His bravery is credit to your city,

0:11:28 > 0:11:30and has convinced me that a treaty of friendship

0:11:30 > 0:11:33should be signed forthwith.

0:11:41 > 0:11:44- You were fantastic out there, like a proper prince.- Really?

0:11:44 > 0:11:47- Yeah.- And now you know you can do it, there should be

0:11:47 > 0:11:48no reason why you don't.

0:11:48 > 0:11:51- Though you might want to rethink your outfit, sire.- But I like it.

0:11:51 > 0:11:54It's really rather comfortable. Any chance I can keep it?

0:11:54 > 0:11:56- I would be honoured.- Wonderful.

0:11:56 > 0:11:58I mean, it is perfect for wrestling tigers.

0:12:02 > 0:12:06And now that Prince Bashir had found his courage,

0:12:06 > 0:12:08it was time for Jamillah to go.

0:12:09 > 0:12:14It was nice to get home and see her family, but Jamillah couldn't wait

0:12:14 > 0:12:19for her next adventure with Aladdin, and me, her brilliant Genie.

0:12:22 > 0:12:27# So what is your wish? Say, o wondrous one

0:12:29 > 0:12:33# Just don't rock my lamp and your will is done

0:12:37 > 0:12:41# No need for applause, Yes, I'm number one

0:12:42 > 0:12:48# A thousand years in here, it's been too long

0:12:50 > 0:12:55# Your genius genie, so smart and strong

0:12:57 > 0:13:01# Shazam, alakazam, oh, it's all gone wrong

0:13:03 > 0:13:07# She's Jamillah, she's a scamp

0:13:07 > 0:13:10# I'm the genie from the lamp

0:13:10 > 0:13:18# That's Aladdin, he's a lad in old Baghdad

0:13:18 > 0:13:21# She's Jamillah, she's a scamp

0:13:21 > 0:13:24# I'm the genie from the lamp

0:13:24 > 0:13:32# That's Aladdin, he's a lad in old Baghdad

0:13:32 > 0:13:35# She's Jamillah, she's a scamp

0:13:35 > 0:13:39# I'm the genie from the lamp

0:13:39 > 0:13:42# When the prince stepped quickly in

0:13:42 > 0:13:45# He spoke well, helped save Aladdin's skin. #
