# Oh yeah! #

0:01:050:01:07

Hi, there. Wait till you see what I've got to show you.

0:01:080:01:12

It may not look much but THIS is a magic jug.

0:01:120:01:16

Just like Aladdin's lamp, well, except there's no genie in it.

0:01:160:01:20

Well, I hope there isn't.

0:01:200:01:23

No! Definitely no genie. But there are lots of colours.

0:01:250:01:29

What? Can you not see the colours? Ah!

0:01:290:01:32

Watch this!

0:01:320:01:34

Ah! A beautiful pink colour.

0:01:340:01:39

Isn't that amazing?

0:01:390:01:40

I told you it was magic. Are any other colours in here?

0:01:400:01:44

Ha, ha! A lovely blue colour.

0:01:440:01:49

That's gorgeous. I wonder how that happened?

0:01:490:01:52

It started clear, then pink in this one.

0:01:520:01:55

Then clear, then blue in this one. Hmmm...

0:01:550:01:58

Let's try the next one.

0:01:580:02:00

Sunny yellow. What's in here?

0:02:030:02:07

Oh, an inky purply-black colour.

0:02:090:02:13

Do you think there are any more colours?

0:02:130:02:16

Let's try the last one.

0:02:160:02:17

Oh, the magic jug has run out of colours.

0:02:200:02:22

Maybe we should fill the jug up again?

0:02:220:02:25

What colour do you think it would turn to then? Let's see.

0:02:250:02:29

Black inky one in first.

0:02:290:02:32

OK, it's still black and inky. That makes sense.

0:02:320:02:36

Put the purply-blue in.

0:02:360:02:39

Sunny yellow, this might brighten it up.

0:02:390:02:43

Bright pink - this'll sort it.

0:02:430:02:46

Oh! It's all a bit mucky.

0:02:460:02:48

Oh well, I'll just pop the clear stuff back in.

0:02:480:02:52

Hah!

0:02:540:02:56

Isn't that amazing? It's gone back to being clear again. Wow!

0:02:560:03:01

I'll let you in on a secret.

0:03:010:03:03

It's not really a magic jug.

0:03:030:03:06

Each beaker has a different chemical in it.

0:03:060:03:09

When the clear liquid touches the chemical, they mix and change.

0:03:090:03:14

-Thank you very much, everyone.

-ALL: Bye.

-Have a lovely day. Bye.

0:03:160:03:21

ALARM BEEPS

0:03:210:03:23

I hear a beep, I see a flash. I wonder what they're going to ask?

0:03:230:03:28

Hi, Nina. My name's Eilidh and I've got a question for you.

0:03:330:03:37

Why does my dad like bacon and banana sandwiches? I think they're yeuchy.

0:03:370:03:42

I don't know why your dad likes those but it's a great question.

0:03:420:03:47

I'd love to help you find out, Eilidh.

0:03:470:03:49

-Bye, Nina. Thank you.

-Bye.

0:03:490:03:52

Well, I think we're going to need some help to answer this one.

0:03:530:03:57

And I know just who to ask. OK, Neurons, time to get to work!

0:03:570:04:02

ALL: Neurons at the ready, Nina.

0:04:160:04:18

OK, Eilidh wants to know

0:04:180:04:20

why her dad likes bacon and banana sandwiches and she doesn't.

0:04:200:04:24

Which Neuron can help us answer today's question?

0:04:240:04:28

ALL: Me! Me! Me! Me! Me!

0:04:280:04:31

Will it be Fabulous Felix?

0:04:310:04:33

I can help so very much, if you need the sense of touch.

0:04:330:04:37

Will it be Beautiful Belle?

0:04:370:04:39

I send messages brain to ear, if there's a sound I'll help you hear.

0:04:390:04:43

Will it be Lovely Luke?

0:04:430:04:45

For looking and seeing, day or night,

0:04:450:04:47

I'll help you with your sense of sight.

0:04:470:04:50

Will it be Awesome Ollie?

0:04:500:04:52

If it's pongy or whiffy but you can't tell,

0:04:520:04:55

my messages help your sense of smell.

0:04:550:04:57

Or will it be Baby Bud?

0:04:570:04:59

Sour, salty, bitter or sweet, I'm your Taste Buddy whenever you eat.

0:04:590:05:04

-It's Bud!

-Yippee! CHEERING

0:05:080:05:11

ALL: Go, Bud! Go, Bud! Go, Bud! Go, Bud!

0:05:110:05:16

Go, Bud! Go, Bud! Go, Bud! BUD SLURPS

0:05:160:05:19

Give me a taste of the action, Nina.

0:05:190:05:22

We'll be doing loads of tasting today and Bud knows all about taste.

0:05:220:05:27

So he's the perfect Neuron to help out.

0:05:270:05:29

OK, then. Let's go.

0:05:320:05:35

-Meet Eilidh, her brother Alan and their mum and dad.

0:05:580:06:02

They're a regular family from Ross-shire

0:06:020:06:05

but today for one day only they are...

0:06:050:06:08

The Experimenters!

0:06:090:06:13

-Hi, everyone.

-ALL: Hi, Nina.

0:06:180:06:21

-Hello, Eilidh, how are you?

-Fine.

-Excellent. We should get started.

0:06:210:06:26

Can you remind me of your question?

0:06:260:06:28

Why does my dad like bacon and banana sandwiches?

0:06:280:06:32

I think they're yeuchy.

0:06:320:06:33

OK, you think they're yeuchy. Time to get going.

0:06:330:06:37

BUD BEEPS

0:06:370:06:41

Ready, Bud?

0:06:410:06:42

It's my big moment!

0:06:420:06:45

Standing by, ready to send lots of messages.

0:06:450:06:50

Is this the famous sandwich?

0:06:500:06:53

I think we should all have a taste to see what we think.

0:06:530:06:57

Have a bite.

0:06:570:06:58

Mmmm...

0:07:010:07:02

Disgusting.

0:07:020:07:04

I'm afraid I'm with you, Alan. Sorry, Dad.

0:07:040:07:08

They're disgusting.

0:07:080:07:09

This part of the experiment taught us

0:07:090:07:12

different people like different foods.

0:07:120:07:15

We should find out more about taste, don't you think?

0:07:150:07:18

And what kinds of taste there are.

0:07:180:07:21

We've got all this food in front of us.

0:07:210:07:23

I think we should all try it and see how it tastes to you.

0:07:230:07:27

-What's this?

-Lemon.

0:07:270:07:29

-What's that taste like?

-Hey, look at Alan's face!

0:07:290:07:33

Doesn't like that much.

0:07:330:07:35

-Really sour!

-Eilidh?

-Extremely sour.

0:07:350:07:39

I think lemons are definitely sour.

0:07:390:07:42

OK, what next? Pineapple.

0:07:420:07:44

Mmmm, pineapple, my favourite fruit.

0:07:440:07:48

Give me a banana any day.

0:07:480:07:50

-What do you think that tastes like?

-A bit sweet.

0:07:500:07:55

-What do you think?

-Sweet.

-That was sweet.

0:07:550:07:58

BUD BEEPS

0:07:580:08:01

So we've got sour and sweet. What else would you like to try?

0:08:010:08:06

Bacon.

0:08:060:08:08

Bacon. OK.

0:08:080:08:09

Hah! I'm getting tired with all this tasting!

0:08:090:08:14

It's hard work, you know!

0:08:140:08:16

-A bit salty.

-I think you're right.

0:08:160:08:19

So, bacon is salty. Let's have some water.

0:08:190:08:22

One more to taste.

0:08:240:08:25

It's cocoa powder.

0:08:250:08:27

-What does that taste like?

-Very bitter.

0:08:300:08:33

-THEY LAUGH

-Aw...

-It's really bitter, isn't it?

0:08:330:08:37

So, we've got sweet,

0:08:370:08:39

sour,

0:08:390:08:41

bitter,

0:08:410:08:42

and salty.

0:08:420:08:44

We've learned there's four types of strong flavours. Hmmm...

0:08:440:08:48

So in our mouths we have lots of taste buds.

0:08:480:08:51

Whenever we eat or drink, it's the taste buds that tell us

0:08:510:08:55

-whether it's sweet, sour...

-Bitter...

-Or?

-Salty.

0:08:550:09:02

That still doesn't answer your question, Eilidh.

0:09:020:09:06

Why he likes them and you don't.

0:09:060:09:08

I think we need more investigating into these sandwiches.

0:09:080:09:12

We should have a sandwich making competition.

0:09:120:09:16

THEY GIGGLE

0:09:160:09:18

Welcome to Ready Spready Bready!

0:09:200:09:23

Here we have the fillings we're going to use for our competition.

0:09:250:09:29

Let's see what we've got.

0:09:290:09:31

That's beetroot. We've also got sun-dried tomatoes.

0:09:310:09:36

There's cheese with cranberries in it, normal cheese and normal cheese.

0:09:360:09:42

Excellent. And jam. And some honey.

0:09:420:09:45

-There's some butter.

-What's that?

0:09:450:09:48

That is anchovies. They're little fishes.

0:09:480:09:52

And they're quite salty.

0:09:520:09:53

So, do you have ideas about what you'll be using?

0:09:530:09:57

Excellent. OK, go!

0:09:570:09:58

Oooh, I love competitions.

0:10:010:10:04

I wonder who'll win?

0:10:040:10:06

Honey and cheese, Eilidh?! That's funny.

0:10:060:10:10

Looking good, guys.

0:10:100:10:12

Running out of time. So, any last minute additions, go for it!

0:10:120:10:16

That's it! Stop cooking.

0:10:320:10:34

NINA LAUGHS

0:10:340:10:35

# Nina and the Neurons! #

0:10:350:10:38

So here we are with our final sandwiches.

0:10:380:10:41

And, Eilidh, I think you should be the judge.

0:10:410:10:44

We'll all taste all the sandwiches and you tell us your favourite.

0:10:440:10:48

That'll be the winner. OK?

0:10:480:10:50

We'll try mine first. My masterpiece of beetroot, onion and salami.

0:10:500:10:55

Everyone, have a taste!

0:10:550:10:57

Mmm...that's beautiful. Do you like that, guys?

0:10:570:11:01

-No.

-Quite nice.

-Excellent, Mum. Very good taste.

0:11:010:11:06

-What did you think, Eilidh?

-Yummy scrummy in my tummy.

0:11:060:11:11

I'm glad you like it.

0:11:110:11:12

Let's try yours now, Alan.

0:11:120:11:14

Everyone, grab one.

0:11:140:11:18

-In Alan's we have...?

-Ham, cheese, jam and salami.

0:11:180:11:22

THEY GRIMACE

0:11:220:11:25

-Yeuch.

-I'm sorry. I'm not a fan of that one, sorry, Alan.

0:11:250:11:31

-I'm not either. It's horrible.

-I don't like it either.

-Oh, well.

0:11:310:11:35

-So, Judge Eilidh, what did you think of that?

-Yeuch.

0:11:350:11:40

Let's try Eilidh's. What's in your sandwich?

0:11:400:11:43

Honey, ham, ham, cheese.

0:11:430:11:47

Mmmm...

0:11:510:11:53

It's not TOO bad.

0:11:530:11:56

Now, which one is the winner of Ready Spready Bready?

0:11:560:12:00

Nina!

0:12:020:12:04

Mine?! Nina's! Ha, ha!

0:12:040:12:07

Thank you, very much.

0:12:080:12:09

So, you want to know why your dad likes bacon and banana sandwiches

0:12:090:12:14

when you don't.

0:12:140:12:15

We've found out there are four strong kinds of flavours.

0:12:150:12:19

-Sweet, sour, bitter and salty.

-That's right.

0:12:190:12:25

Sweet, sour, bitter and salty.

0:12:250:12:27

Some people's taste buds are more sensitive to tastes than others.

0:12:270:12:32

That's why we like different things.

0:12:320:12:35

-OK, thanks very much. It's been lovely. Take care, bye!

-Bye.

0:12:350:12:39

-Bye, Nina.

-Bye.

0:12:390:12:42

ALL: Wh-oa-oa-oa!

0:12:510:12:54

# It's been a busy, busy day

0:12:540:12:57

# Questions answered Experiments done

0:12:570:13:00

# We've all used our senses in so many ways

0:13:000:13:02

# Tell me, Neurons, What have you done today? #

0:13:020:13:06

I definitely worked the hardest today.

0:13:060:13:09

There was so much food to taste!

0:13:090:13:12

Yeah, I was pretty busy.

0:13:120:13:14

Some of those sandwiches looked odd.

0:13:140:13:16

I was really busy.

0:13:160:13:18

-Some of those sandwiches were really smelly.

-Oo-er.

0:13:180:13:22

I was working hard too, you know.

0:13:220:13:24

With all that spreading and scooping and pouring.

0:13:240:13:28

Loads of sounds kept me busy.

0:13:280:13:31

When everybody was making sandwiches - what a racket!

0:13:310:13:36

That was great fun.

0:13:430:13:45

I hope you've had a sensational time too. Bye!

0:13:450:13:49

ALL: Bye bye!
