0:00:06 > 0:00:12# Under a pile of scrap There lay this little chap
0:00:12 > 0:00:14# He had a broken arm But he made it good
0:00:14 > 0:00:17# Then fixed his friends Like robots should
0:00:17 > 0:00:22- # Little Robots,- Little Robots - Little Robots

0:00:33 > 0:00:38- # Little Robots,- Little Robots - Little Robots
0:00:38 > 0:00:41# They made a world from junk
0:00:41 > 0:00:44# With a bang, a twang and a clunk
0:00:44 > 0:00:48# They built their homes Round the Nut 'n' Bolt Tree

0:01:05 > 0:01:09Hey, there, Sparky II, are you ready?
0:01:09 > 0:01:12Yep, Sparky I, here I come!
0:01:12 > 0:01:15Right, let's go and ask Scary.
0:01:16 > 0:01:18Woof!
0:01:21 > 0:01:24Hello, Scary. We want to ask you something.
0:01:24 > 0:01:27Uh...can we borrow Flappy for our show?
0:01:27 > 0:01:30Flappy?! Oh, no. No, I'm sorry.
0:01:30 > 0:01:33Just for one night. We want her to come home and rehearse with us.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35No. She's never been away from home.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38You don't want to be in the Sparkies' show, do you?
0:01:38 > 0:01:42Oh-hoh-hoh-hoh, heh-heh!
0:01:42 > 0:01:46- There you are... - She said yes, Scary.- She said yes!
0:01:46 > 0:01:49Did she? ..Are you sure, Flappy?
0:01:49 > 0:01:52Heh-heh-heh, heh-heh-heh!
0:01:52 > 0:01:55Well, I am surprised.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58I suppose I'd better let you take her, then.
0:01:58 > 0:02:02- Oh, great! She'll have such fun. - Here you are.
0:02:02 > 0:02:05Oh, thank you, Scary. We'll be ever so careful with her.
0:02:05 > 0:02:10You'd better be. She can't see where she's going at night.
0:02:10 > 0:02:14- She has to use radar.- Oh, we know all about her radar, Scary.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16It stops her bumping into things.
0:02:16 > 0:02:20And she must have my cloak with her. It's her comfort blanket.
0:02:20 > 0:02:23- Gently now.- Off we go, Flappy.
0:02:23 > 0:02:25Farewell, my pet.
0:02:26 > 0:02:31Let's got to the wasteland. Flappy won't wake up till it's night-time.
0:02:31 > 0:02:35Good idea, Sparky I. We can have a practice there.
0:02:35 > 0:02:38Oh, dear. Oh, dear, I've been such a fool.
0:02:38 > 0:02:42What if she's homesick? I should never have let her go.
0:02:44 > 0:02:49- Scary?- Can't stop, dear boy. Trying to catch up with the Sparkies.
0:02:49 > 0:02:53- I've lent Flappy to them.- Why?
0:02:53 > 0:02:56They want her to be in their show and she wants to do it.
0:02:56 > 0:03:01But I think I've made a dreadful mistake. I'm going to get her back.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04There, Flappy, you finish your sleep
0:03:04 > 0:03:08and when Tiny pulls the lever, we'll all rehearse together.
0:03:08 > 0:03:11- Come on, Sparky II.- OK. Catch!
0:03:11 > 0:03:13And back to you, Sparky II.
0:03:16 > 0:03:20Oh, crikey! I bumped Flappy on the head.
0:03:20 > 0:03:25- Do you think it's done anything to her?- No, she's fine, Sparky I. Look.
0:03:25 > 0:03:27She didn't even wake up.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31Sparkies! Hello?
0:03:32 > 0:03:36Oh, Tiny, the Sparkies aren't at home.
0:03:36 > 0:03:39I want my Flappy back. She'll be missing me.
0:03:39 > 0:03:43Don't worry, Scary. I'm just going to make it night.
0:03:43 > 0:03:46Then Flappy can come home if she wants.
0:03:53 > 0:03:58Look, Sparky II, she's waking up. She knows when it's night.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01Hey, Flappy, watch where you're going!
0:04:03 > 0:04:06I think she wants to play dodge the bat.
0:04:06 > 0:04:10- Cor, she's fast. - Let me have a go, Sparky I.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13Ole!
0:04:15 > 0:04:18What is wrong with her?
0:04:18 > 0:04:21QUIET SCREECHES
0:04:25 > 0:04:27Ee-eeh!
0:04:29 > 0:04:31TINY SNORES
0:04:41 > 0:04:46Sparky II, I think, when that ball bopped Flappy on the head,
0:04:46 > 0:04:48it did something to her radar.
0:04:48 > 0:04:51That's why she's flying into things.
0:04:51 > 0:04:54We've got to get her back. Come on, Sparky II.
0:04:54 > 0:04:57Let's try Scary's first. She might have gone home.
0:05:00 > 0:05:02Woof!
0:05:02 > 0:05:07(Ssh! Messy, Scary mustn't find us here. We've lost Flappy.)
0:05:07 > 0:05:09Oh-oh!
0:05:09 > 0:05:13Oh, Messy, please help us get her back before Scary finds out.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16Woof! Woof, woof, woof!
0:05:18 > 0:05:20Oh! Look at that.
0:05:20 > 0:05:24- She went this way.- Come on, Messy.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26Huh?
0:05:28 > 0:05:30Flappy!
0:05:30 > 0:05:33Flappy. Oh, where are you?
0:05:33 > 0:05:37Come home. I MISS YOU.
0:05:41 > 0:05:46Oh! So THAT was what went bump in the night!
0:05:47 > 0:05:49But Flappy never flies into things.
0:05:49 > 0:05:53Unless there's something wrong with her radar!
0:05:58 > 0:06:02Come on, Messy. We've got to find her before she damages herself.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04Woof!
0:06:05 > 0:06:08I'll go this way, Messy. You look over there.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18Woof! Woof!
0:06:18 > 0:06:20It's Flappy.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22Quick, she's going to fall.
0:06:26 > 0:06:29Oh, Flappy, that was close.
0:06:29 > 0:06:33Let's have a look at your radar and find out what's wrong.
0:06:33 > 0:06:35Oh! Oh!
0:06:38 > 0:06:42There. No more bumping into things now.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45Come on, we've got to get you back for the Sparkies' show.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48Heh-heh-heh, heh-heh-heh!
0:06:50 > 0:06:53You go on ahead, Messy. Make sure Scary's not around.
0:06:53 > 0:06:56- Tiny!- Oh, Scary!
0:06:56 > 0:07:02I'm so worried. I can't find the Sparkies or Flappy anywhere.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04Don't worry, Scary.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07Flappy will be having a lovely sleep...
0:07:07 > 0:07:09um...somewhere.
0:07:09 > 0:07:11Oh, I hope you're right.
0:07:11 > 0:07:16This is the one and only time I'm going to let anyone borrow Flappy.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19Sorry, Scary, I've got to go. Bye!
0:07:22 > 0:07:25Well done, Messy.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27Let's get her up on her perch again.
0:07:27 > 0:07:29There's nowhere left to look.
0:07:29 > 0:07:32At last! I've been looking everywhere for you.
0:07:32 > 0:07:35Oh! Scary.
0:07:35 > 0:07:40- Did you want something?- I want Flappy. I want her home with me.
0:07:40 > 0:07:44But I'm sure she's fine...Scary. Anyway, she's asleep.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47I won't disturb her. Come along.
0:07:47 > 0:07:51What will he do to us when he finds out she's not there?
0:07:51 > 0:07:55I don't know how the Sparkies are going to explain THIS.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58- Flappy.- Messy, let's hide.
0:07:58 > 0:08:02- You could...see her later, Scary. - Flappy?
0:08:02 > 0:08:04There you are, my precious!
0:08:05 > 0:08:08You don't really want to be in this show, do you?
0:08:08 > 0:08:10- Uh-huh.- You do?
0:08:10 > 0:08:13Oh-hoh-hoh-hoh, hoh-hoh, hoh-hoh!
0:08:13 > 0:08:17Oh, all right, then. If you're absolutely sure.
0:08:17 > 0:08:22- Oh, heh-heh! - Until tonight. The performance.
0:08:23 > 0:08:26How...? Whe...? WHO found her?
0:08:27 > 0:08:32Well, I did. But it was Messy who brought her back here.Woof!
0:08:32 > 0:08:36- How can we ever thank you? - Woof, woof, woof!
0:08:36 > 0:08:39By letting him be in your show.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41It's the least we can do.
0:08:41 > 0:08:44You and Tiny got us out of big trouble with Scary.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46But you must tell him what happened.
0:08:46 > 0:08:50- Of course we will. - After the show.
0:08:52 > 0:08:56It gives me great pleasure to welcome you all
