0:05:50 > 0:05:57.
0:27:04 > 0:27:07# Are there Tooth Mice? Here's the proof
0:27:07 > 0:27:11# Every time you lose a tooth
0:27:11 > 0:27:14# There's a pair of fearless mice
0:27:14 > 0:27:19# Who fight through rain and snow and ice
0:27:19 > 0:27:22# To bring you all a nice surprise
0:27:22 > 0:27:28# So go to bed and close your eyes. #
0:27:36 > 0:27:39Helping your grandma to sew can be fun.
0:27:39 > 0:27:44But when you haven't got a thimble, there's bound to be tears.
0:27:44 > 0:27:46Ow!
0:27:46 > 0:27:49Are you all right, Mary?
0:27:49 > 0:27:52Yes, Nanny. I just keep pricking my finger.
0:27:52 > 0:27:55Here. Take this.
0:27:55 > 0:27:59Mary needed a bigger thumb... or a smaller thimble.
0:27:59 > 0:28:05The answer lay in the Kingdom of the Tooth Mice with Queen Elisa.
0:28:05 > 0:28:11- Little Mary Wood has just lost her first milk tooth.- Oh!
0:28:11 > 0:28:15Quiet! Her mother's dead, poor child.
0:28:15 > 0:28:19She helps her grandmother sew dresses. They're very poor.
0:28:19 > 0:28:24- But she can't cope - it's too much for her.- Quite so.
0:28:24 > 0:28:27What she needs is a magic thimble.
0:28:27 > 0:28:31- But...- No buts. I want it delivered tonight.
0:28:31 > 0:28:35Magic tales, magic teddies, magic terrapins... Oh, no!
0:28:35 > 0:28:40I knew it! No magic thimbles! They're all gone.
0:28:40 > 0:28:43Can't we get one from somewhere else?
0:28:43 > 0:28:46Let's see who had the last one. ..My, my!
0:28:46 > 0:28:50The last magic thimble was given to Margaret Wood.
0:28:50 > 0:28:53That's the girl's poor dead mother!
0:28:53 > 0:28:59- Come on, Martin. It'll be in Mary's house.- And HOW will we find it?!
0:28:59 > 0:29:04It's probably in the attic, with all her mother's things.
0:29:04 > 0:29:09- The attic? That's where Joshua lives!- Joshua?- The owl.
0:29:12 > 0:29:14Joshua was a tough old bird.
0:29:14 > 0:29:19It was a brave Tooth Mouse who strayed into his attic.
0:29:21 > 0:29:24He was short-tempered and short-sighted.
0:29:30 > 0:29:32< CLATTER!
0:29:37 > 0:29:42Gisele and Martin searched the attic from top to bottom.
0:29:43 > 0:29:46MUSIC PLAYS
0:29:50 > 0:29:52Cuckoo!
0:29:57 > 0:29:59- And that's when- I- dropped in.
0:30:03 > 0:30:06Arthur! You gave me a fright.
0:30:06 > 0:30:10Don't worry - Arthur's got it all under control.
0:30:10 > 0:30:14We won't see Joshua. Owls go out hunting at night.
0:30:14 > 0:30:18We'll NEVER find it amongst all this mess.
0:30:18 > 0:30:21We've been looking for an hour already.
0:30:21 > 0:30:25- Look in the chest of drawers. - Get it open!
0:30:25 > 0:30:30I can see a child's sewing box. The thimble must be in there!
0:30:30 > 0:30:33I can't quite do it.
0:30:33 > 0:30:35Wait - I've an idea.
0:30:38 > 0:30:40Give us a hand, me dearies.
0:30:52 > 0:30:56Hiding from Joshua SHOULD have been easy.
0:30:56 > 0:30:59JOSHUA: I need new glasses...
0:30:59 > 0:31:00Atchoo!
0:31:00 > 0:31:02Help!
0:31:04 > 0:31:07So...owls hunt at night, do they(?)
0:31:07 > 0:31:11- The thimble - did you find the thimble?- Look!
0:31:11 > 0:31:16We wouldn't be seeing Joshua for a while, and he wouldn't be seeing us.
0:31:16 > 0:31:19Gisele swapped the tooth for a thimble.
0:31:19 > 0:31:22Mary was delighted with it.
0:31:24 > 0:31:27And Grandma was delighted with Mary.
0:31:27 > 0:31:31Mary? Finished. Oh...but how?
0:31:31 > 0:31:34Oh, Mary!
