0:01:08 > 0:01:11Oh, this is fun.

0:01:23 > 0:01:25Ah-ha!

0:01:25 > 0:01:28My metal measurer is in good working order!

0:01:28 > 0:01:31I wonder...

0:01:35 > 0:01:37Up she goes...

0:01:37 > 0:01:39- Hi, Tiny.- Hello, Sparkies.

0:01:39 > 0:01:42Oh, a metal measurer.

0:01:42 > 0:01:44Can we measure our metal, Tiny?

0:01:44 > 0:01:46Oh, well, why not?

0:01:51 > 0:01:53THEY SHOUT WITH GLEE

0:01:55 > 0:01:56Ha, ha, ha...

0:01:56 > 0:02:02We're the same! We weigh the same! We walk the same! We look the same!

0:02:02 > 0:02:05We talk the same!

0:02:05 > 0:02:08We are the...

0:02:08 > 0:02:09the Sparky Twins!

0:02:09 > 0:02:12Ha, ha, ha...

0:02:12 > 0:02:15HE HUFFS AND PUFFS

0:02:15 > 0:02:19- Oh, that looks heavy, Sporty. - It is.

0:02:19 > 0:02:23Why is that end higher up than that one?

0:02:23 > 0:02:29Because this end is heavy... and this end is light.

0:02:29 > 0:02:31But why, Sporty?

0:02:35 > 0:02:39Oh, Rusty, because I dropped some of my weights down the watch-out,

0:02:39 > 0:02:43and I haven't had time to find them. This is when I do my weightlifting.

0:02:43 > 0:02:47Can't you use something to make the light end as heavy as the other?

0:02:47 > 0:02:51- What?!- Here, try this.

0:02:57 > 0:03:00Heave...

0:03:01 > 0:03:05Stop, Sporty! That's far too heavy.

0:03:05 > 0:03:07I'll get something else.

0:03:10 > 0:03:12Try that.

0:03:12 > 0:03:13Right...

0:03:17 > 0:03:20OW-W-W!

0:03:20 > 0:03:24Oh, dear. I think we need Tiny's advice.

0:03:28 > 0:03:30HEAVE...

0:03:30 > 0:03:32Rusty's right, Sporty.

0:03:32 > 0:03:35You must have the same weight at each end of the bar,

0:03:35 > 0:03:37otherwise you'll damage your circuits.

0:03:37 > 0:03:39But I want to do it now.

0:03:39 > 0:03:41I know what we can do.

0:03:43 > 0:03:45THEY SHOUT

0:03:46 > 0:03:49Sparkies, can you get out now, please.

0:03:49 > 0:03:50Spoilsport.

0:03:52 > 0:03:54OK, Sporty, put that in there.

0:03:58 > 0:04:01We need to find something as heavy as that.

0:04:01 > 0:04:03OK...

0:04:33 > 0:04:35Nothing's heavy enough!

0:04:35 > 0:04:39Have you finished measuring? Can we play now?

0:04:39 > 0:04:41No, we haven't finished.

0:04:41 > 0:04:44- The metal measurer's not really for playing in.- Aw...

0:04:44 > 0:04:48Come on, Sporty. Let's take this to Stretchy's yard.

0:04:48 > 0:04:52He'll have plenty of heavy things we can try.

0:04:53 > 0:04:55I can't lift it.

0:04:55 > 0:04:58Oh, can we help, Tiny?

0:04:58 > 0:05:00Thanks, Sparkies.

0:05:00 > 0:05:01Off we go.

0:05:06 > 0:05:10Seven, eight, nine...

0:05:10 > 0:05:14- ten, eleven...- Hello, Stretchy.

0:05:14 > 0:05:16Hello.

0:05:16 > 0:05:18We need something really heavy.

0:05:18 > 0:05:22Well, I'm busy, so just go and find what you need,

0:05:22 > 0:05:24but don't take anything without asking.

0:05:24 > 0:05:28OK, Stretchy. We'll start looking over here.

0:05:28 > 0:05:31One...two...

0:05:31 > 0:05:34Come on, Sparky 2, it's playtime!

0:05:36 > 0:05:38..five...

0:05:38 > 0:05:41Up and down... Up and down...

0:05:41 > 0:05:44I want to go higher, Sparky 2!

0:05:44 > 0:05:47How do we do that, Sparky 1?

0:05:47 > 0:05:52If we both sit in one bowl, and we put something heavy in the other one

0:05:52 > 0:05:55that would make us go high.

0:05:55 > 0:05:59Where are we going to find something really heavy?

0:05:59 > 0:06:01- Oh, dear, that'll have to go. - Spotty!

0:06:01 > 0:06:07Hello, Sparkies. I'm looking for something big and round.

0:06:07 > 0:06:11- You look like you could do with a sit-down, Spotty.- Do I?

0:06:11 > 0:06:15- I bet you could do with a little rest.- Take a seat, Spotty.

0:06:15 > 0:06:19And you come over here and sit with me, Sparky 2.

0:06:20 > 0:06:22Oh, how kind.

0:06:22 > 0:06:25Thank you so much.

0:06:28 > 0:06:30My dears, what did I do?

0:06:30 > 0:06:33- You sat down...- And we shot up!

0:06:36 > 0:06:38Oh, what have you done to me?

0:06:38 > 0:06:41- Help!- Climb out, Spotty.

0:06:41 > 0:06:43I most certainly will not.

0:06:43 > 0:06:47Oh, come on, Spotty. It's not difficult.

0:06:47 > 0:06:48I'm not moving.

0:06:51 > 0:06:54I hate heights. Help!

0:06:56 > 0:06:58Please, get me down.

0:06:58 > 0:06:59Hup! Hup!

0:06:59 > 0:07:01No, Sporty, don't do that!

0:07:03 > 0:07:04Ah! Ah!

0:07:04 > 0:07:06Put it back, Sporty.

0:07:13 > 0:07:15If we take some of the bolts out of the bucket,

0:07:15 > 0:07:20it'll be lighter, and then Spotty will come down slowly.

0:07:20 > 0:07:23Make that VERY slowly.

0:07:23 > 0:07:25So, let's take a few out.

0:07:25 > 0:07:28And a few more...

0:07:33 > 0:07:35Oh, Stretchy...

0:07:35 > 0:07:36That's perfect.

0:07:36 > 0:07:38Thank you.

0:07:38 > 0:07:41Can't we get her down a bit faster? OTHERS: NO!

0:07:47 > 0:07:51I said, SLOWLY, Sporty.

0:07:51 > 0:07:54Sorry, Spotty. I was only trying to help.

0:07:56 > 0:08:00That's the last time I'll have a sit-down when you two suggest it.

0:08:02 > 0:08:04And just how are you going to get down?

0:08:04 > 0:08:07Oh, er...

0:08:13 > 0:08:15Not bad, huh?

0:08:15 > 0:08:19Sporty, you're wonderful.

0:08:19 > 0:08:21- Just what I was thinking.- Yahoo!

0:08:21 > 0:08:24We're down!

0:08:24 > 0:08:27I've still not found what I was looking for.

0:08:27 > 0:08:29You have, Sporty.

0:08:29 > 0:08:33You need something that weighs the same as the Sparky twins.

0:08:40 > 0:08:42Perfect balance!

0:08:42 > 0:08:45I am not putting that load of rubbish on my bar!

0:08:45 > 0:08:49I suppose I'll have to squash it all in my metal basher.

0:09:04 > 0:09:07Thank you, Stretchy.

0:09:09 > 0:09:11Yes!

0:09:11 > 0:09:16We weight the same! We walk the same! We look the same!

0:09:16 > 0:09:18We talk the same!

0:09:18 > 0:09:22We are...the Sparky Twins!

0:09:23 > 0:09:27What a perfect pair.
