0:01:05 > 0:01:07# Oh yeah! #
0:01:08 > 0:01:09Oh, hello!
0:01:09 > 0:01:14- Just putting my new goggles on. Hello, everyone.- Hello.
0:01:14 > 0:01:18Today's demonstration is all about flames,
0:01:18 > 0:01:20like the flame you can see here.
0:01:20 > 0:01:23But flames and fire can be very dangerous,
0:01:23 > 0:01:25so I'm going to be extra careful today.
0:01:25 > 0:01:29Now, have a look at this flame. What colour is it?
0:01:29 > 0:01:32- Blue. - That's right, it's a blue colour.
0:01:32 > 0:01:37Blue isn't very unusual for flames, but I've got some chemicals here
0:01:37 > 0:01:42and we're going to burn these, and we might see some unusual colours.
0:01:42 > 0:01:46First of all, I wonder what colour this will be.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49Wow! What colour d'you think that is?
0:01:49 > 0:01:51Green.
0:01:51 > 0:01:56That's right, it's green, isn't it? Let's see the other colours.
0:01:56 > 0:02:00Oh, wow! What a beautiful colour of purple.
0:02:00 > 0:02:02That's lovely, isn't it?
0:02:02 > 0:02:06I wonder what the last one might be.
0:02:06 > 0:02:10That's amazing! Look at that! How bright is that? Lovely.
0:02:10 > 0:02:13What a gorgeous orange colour.
0:02:13 > 0:02:17Did you know there were so many different colours of flames?
0:02:17 > 0:02:20- APPLAUSE - Oh, thank you! Thank you very much.
0:02:20 > 0:02:24Thank you for coming. See you all again soon. Bye!
0:02:24 > 0:02:27- BEEPING - Oh, I hear a beep! I see a flash!
0:02:27 > 0:02:29I wonder what they're going to ask.
0:02:31 > 0:02:32NINA DIALS KEYPAD
0:02:34 > 0:02:39Hi, Nina. My question is, how many colours are there?
0:02:39 > 0:02:40Oh! Great question.
0:02:40 > 0:02:44Colours are everywhere, but I've never counted them all.
0:02:44 > 0:02:48- We need to investigate! - Thanks, Nina.
0:02:48 > 0:02:49- Bye!- Bye!
0:02:49 > 0:02:52I think we're going to need some help to answer this one
0:02:52 > 0:02:54and I know just who to ask.
0:02:54 > 0:02:58OK, Neurons, time to get to work.
0:03:12 > 0:03:14Neurons at the ready, Nina.
0:03:15 > 0:03:19OK, today's question is, how many colours are there?
0:03:19 > 0:03:23Which neuron do you think will be most useful?
0:03:23 > 0:03:27ALL: Me! Me! Me! Me! Me!
0:03:27 > 0:03:29Will it be fabulous Felix?
0:03:29 > 0:03:33I can help so very much if you need the sense of touch!
0:03:33 > 0:03:35Will it be beautiful Belle?
0:03:35 > 0:03:40I send messages, brain to ear. If there's a sound, I'll help you hear!
0:03:40 > 0:03:41Will it be lovely Luke?
0:03:41 > 0:03:44For looking and seeing, day or night,
0:03:44 > 0:03:47I'll help you with your sense of sight!
0:03:47 > 0:03:48Will it be awesome Ollie?
0:03:48 > 0:03:51If it's pongy or whiffy but you can't tell,
0:03:51 > 0:03:54my messages help your sense of smell!
0:03:54 > 0:03:55Or will it be baby Bud?
0:03:55 > 0:04:00Sour, salty, bitter or sweet, I'm your taste buddy whenever you eat!
0:04:00 > 0:04:03BLEEPING
0:04:03 > 0:04:06- CHEERING - It's Luke!- Yes!
0:04:07 > 0:04:14ALL: Go, Luke! Go, Luke! Go, Luke! Go, Luke! Go, Luke!
0:04:14 > 0:04:18Cool, Nina. I'll be looking out to help ya!
0:04:18 > 0:04:22Thanks, Luke. Colours are something we see,
0:04:22 > 0:04:25so Luke is the perfect Neuron to help us out.
0:04:25 > 0:04:29I'd also like some help from our experimenters, and it'd be fun
0:04:29 > 0:04:31if they came to meet me for a change.
0:04:31 > 0:04:33Let's see if we can find them.
0:04:36 > 0:04:42Meet Claire, her big sister Claudia, big brother, Brian and Mum.
0:04:42 > 0:04:45They're a regular family from Glasgow,
0:04:45 > 0:04:48but today, for one day only, they are...
0:04:50 > 0:04:52..The Experimenters!
0:04:56 > 0:04:59Hi, everyone! How are you doing?
0:04:59 > 0:05:02Thank you for coming along. It's very kind of you.
0:05:02 > 0:05:05- Hello, Claire. How are you?- Fine.
0:05:05 > 0:05:08Thank you very much for getting in touch with me.
0:05:08 > 0:05:13Your question was, how many colours are there? I love colours.
0:05:13 > 0:05:17I love them so much I even put loads of colours on my lab coat.
0:05:17 > 0:05:21My favourite one is the blue one. What's your favourite colour?
0:05:21 > 0:05:24Yellow, green, red.
0:05:24 > 0:05:28The green is gorgeous. I do like the green one.
0:05:28 > 0:05:31My coat has got lots of colours in it.
0:05:31 > 0:05:33What else has loads of colours in it?
0:05:33 > 0:05:38- A rainbow.- Rainbow! That's right. A rainbow has lots of colours in it.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41Have you ever seen a rainbow up in the sky?
0:05:41 > 0:05:46You have? And d'you know how many colours there are in a rainbow?
0:05:46 > 0:05:48- No.- There are loads. Let me think.
0:05:48 > 0:05:53There's red, orange, yellow and green and there's...
0:05:53 > 0:05:57Ooh, that's just given me an idea for an experiment.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00Luke, I hope you're standing by.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06- Ready, Luke?- It's my big moment!
0:06:06 > 0:06:11Standing by, ready to send lots of messages.
0:06:11 > 0:06:14We're going to paint a rainbow
0:06:14 > 0:06:19on this huge piece of paper, so I've got some paints down here.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21Let me just check.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24Let me check I've got everything.
0:06:24 > 0:06:27We've got red - check.
0:06:27 > 0:06:29There's the blue one.
0:06:29 > 0:06:33We've got yellow, and...
0:06:33 > 0:06:37Oh, no, we seem to be missing some colours. What'll we do?
0:06:37 > 0:06:41- We could mix them together. - That's a brilliant idea!
0:06:41 > 0:06:44We'll mix some of the colours we have
0:06:44 > 0:06:47to make some of the colours we don't have. Genius!
0:06:47 > 0:06:49Let's get started.
0:06:56 > 0:07:02That's great. We should start painting. Let me get all my brushes.
0:07:02 > 0:07:06Oh, no, I forgot, I lent someone some brushes.
0:07:06 > 0:07:11Oh, no! What can we do? We can't paint a rainbow with no brushes.
0:07:11 > 0:07:15- We can use our feet. - That's a great idea!
0:07:15 > 0:07:18Sounds a bit messy. But it could be a lot of fun.
0:07:18 > 0:07:23- Would that be OK with you guys?- Yes! - Well, let's get painting.
0:07:23 > 0:07:28Whoopee - this sounds like it's going to be fun. What a great idea!
0:07:28 > 0:07:33Our feet are super-sensitive, so I am about to get so busy.
0:07:33 > 0:07:38I think I am going to be the busiest with all these colours to spot.
0:07:47 > 0:07:48What a masterpiece!
0:07:48 > 0:07:52It's a beautiful rainbow made from lovely colours,
0:07:52 > 0:07:56and it didn't matter that there were colours missing.
0:07:56 > 0:07:59It was easy to mix colours together to make new ones.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01That was so much fun!
0:08:01 > 0:08:06The paint felt so cold and squidgy.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09I loved the feeling when it went up and over Nina's feet.
0:08:09 > 0:08:13Did you hear that laughter? They were having so much fun.
0:08:13 > 0:08:18Look at the lovely rainbow we've created!
0:08:18 > 0:08:21Claire, can you count how many colours are in the rainbow?
0:08:21 > 0:08:24One, two, three, four, five, six!
0:08:25 > 0:08:29That's right. Six colours in a rainbow.
0:08:29 > 0:08:31Well done. But d'you know what?
0:08:31 > 0:08:34We haven't really answered your question, Claire.
0:08:34 > 0:08:37We might need to do another experiment.
0:08:37 > 0:08:40I've made a decision. We're going on a trip.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46Wow! Look at all the lovely colours.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49We're going to have a seriously colour-tastic day!
0:08:49 > 0:08:54- Claire, remind me what your favourite colour is.- Green.
0:08:54 > 0:08:59Green! Brilliant! I think I'm going to pair you and Claudia together.
0:08:59 > 0:09:04Can you find as many things in the garden centre that are green.
0:09:04 > 0:09:09I'm going to give this to you guys. Mum, what's your favourite colour?
0:09:09 > 0:09:11My favourite colour is red.
0:09:11 > 0:09:14You and Brian, I'd like you to go and find
0:09:14 > 0:09:18as many things as you can in the garden centre that are red.
0:09:18 > 0:09:20Let's go!
0:09:20 > 0:09:24I like being here at the garden centre.
0:09:24 > 0:09:28I'm about to get very busy with all these lovely smelly flowers.
0:09:28 > 0:09:34I hope Nina will stop to touch those beautiful leaves and petals.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37They would feel lovely after all that paint.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44Oh, look, Claire, it's a watering can. Ssssh!
0:09:44 > 0:09:47- This looks pretty, doesn't it? - Oh, yes.
0:09:51 > 0:09:53It's a dinosaur!
0:09:57 > 0:10:02Claire and her family are busy looking for reds and greens.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05I've decided I'd like to go on my own colour hunt.
0:10:05 > 0:10:08They're outside. I've come inside
0:10:08 > 0:10:11to find all the other colours of the rainbow.
0:10:11 > 0:10:15And I have this colour chart to help me out. Let me have a look.
0:10:15 > 0:10:20Oh, we can tick off red. And we can tick off green.
0:10:20 > 0:10:22What have we left?
0:10:22 > 0:10:25Orange, yellow, blue and violet.
0:10:25 > 0:10:28This is going to be a fabulous colour hunt!
0:10:47 > 0:10:49Ooh!
0:10:59 > 0:11:02OK, guys, colour hunt over!
0:11:05 > 0:11:07Oh, my goodness!
0:11:07 > 0:11:10Look at all the things you've found!
0:11:10 > 0:11:13Look at all the different shades of green.
0:11:13 > 0:11:17That's brilliant! And all the shades of red!
0:11:17 > 0:11:19I think we should put them in order,
0:11:19 > 0:11:23arrange them out in order of lightest to darkest.
0:11:23 > 0:11:25Do you think we could do that?
0:11:25 > 0:11:27Yippee!
0:11:35 > 0:11:37Look at all those shades.
0:11:37 > 0:11:39It looks so pretty.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41My favourites are the greens.
0:11:41 > 0:11:43I love being at the garden centre.
0:11:43 > 0:11:47- What fun.- So, different colours also have lots of shades.
0:11:47 > 0:11:50I'm such a lucky neuron today.
0:11:50 > 0:11:52You are really lucky.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54Is it time for a snack yet?
0:11:54 > 0:11:56Excellent work, guys.
0:11:56 > 0:12:00You did really well. Look at all the colours.
0:12:00 > 0:12:03Who would have thought there'd be so many shades?
0:12:03 > 0:12:06# Nina and the neurons! #
0:12:06 > 0:12:09So I think we've answered your question, Claire.
0:12:09 > 0:12:13You wanted to know how many colours are there,
0:12:13 > 0:12:15and when painted the rainbow,
0:12:15 > 0:12:18we mixed colours together to make new colours.
0:12:18 > 0:12:22When we collected all the green things and all the red things,
0:12:22 > 0:12:26we saw loads of different shades of each colour.
0:12:26 > 0:12:30So, there are MILLIONS of different colours out there,
0:12:30 > 0:12:31all to brighten your day.
0:12:31 > 0:12:34But I'd better be off now back to work.
0:12:34 > 0:12:38- Take care of yourself. See you soon. Bye.- Bye-bye.
0:12:47 > 0:12:50# O-o-o-o-oh!
0:12:50 > 0:12:56# It's been a busy, busy day Questions answered, experiments done
0:12:56 > 0:12:59# We've all used our senses in so many ways
0:12:59 > 0:13:02# Tell me, neurons, what have you done today? #
0:13:02 > 0:13:05Well, I definitely worked the hardest today.
0:13:05 > 0:13:10Mixing different colours to make new ones was really clever.
0:13:10 > 0:13:13Well, I was working hard, too!
0:13:13 > 0:13:17When Nina put her feet into the paint, it was so cold and wet.
0:13:17 > 0:13:21- I liked it.- There were loads of sounds to keep me busy.
0:13:21 > 0:13:24When Claire and her family were painting,
0:13:24 > 0:13:27there was so much laughter.
0:13:27 > 0:13:32I was really busy, smelling all those lovely flowers at the garden centre.
0:13:32 > 0:13:35- It was great fun.- Wowee!
0:13:35 > 0:13:37I've been a busy baby bud.
0:13:37 > 0:13:40I've been busy doing nothing!
0:13:41 > 0:13:43# Nina and the neurons
0:13:44 > 0:13:47# Whoa-oh-oh-oh... Experiments #
0:13:47 > 0:13:49Well, that was great fun.
0:13:49 > 0:13:53I hope you've had a sense-sational time, too! Bye.
0:13:53 > 0:13:54Bye.
