0:01:39 > 0:01:44- All right, Ernie, all right? - Ha ha! I'm fine, thank you, Jack.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46- Couldn't be better. - Good. How's business?
0:01:46 > 0:01:51- Oh, buzzing. Sam's sorting me out a new sign.- Oh, yeah?
0:01:51 > 0:01:53Yeah, she's putting up a sign to my stall
0:01:53 > 0:01:57so that people will read it and come and buy lots of fish.
0:01:57 > 0:02:01- What a good idea. - She's over there, now.- What?
0:02:01 > 0:02:06Oh, yeah. Yeah. Come on, Salty, we'll go and investigate.
0:02:06 > 0:02:08- See you later, Jack.- Ta-ra.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11JAUNTY MUSIC PLAYS
0:02:38 > 0:02:43Hello, Sam. Oh, Jack, good to see you. I must ask you to stand back.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45Oh, yeah. Do you need a hand?
0:02:45 > 0:02:49No, this is a job for a professional. You're best standing back.
0:02:50 > 0:02:51Oh!
0:02:51 > 0:02:56- Oh, I'll have this sign up in no time.- Yeah. It's a nice sign.
0:02:56 > 0:02:57Yes, it is.
0:02:57 > 0:03:01Do you know, I expect people will be flocking to Ernie's stall
0:03:01 > 0:03:03- once you've...- Put the sign up?
0:03:03 > 0:03:06Listen, are you sure you don't need an extra hand?
0:03:06 > 0:03:09- Jack, this is a one-woman job. - Righto.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12I'm sure you're doing a splendid job.
0:03:12 > 0:03:16- Yes, I'm off to polish my... - Furniture?- No, my...- Knick-knacks?
0:03:16 > 0:03:20- No, no, my telescope.- Oh! Good job.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23- Right, back to work. - I'd better be getting off as well.
0:03:23 > 0:03:27- I'll see you later. Come on, Salty.- See you, Jack.
0:03:27 > 0:03:28Oh!
0:03:38 > 0:03:44There she is, the Rainbow. But what have you got for us today, my dear?
0:03:44 > 0:03:47HORN TOOTS
0:03:47 > 0:03:49Hey, hey, come on, Salty.
0:03:49 > 0:03:51# De-dee, de-dee. #
0:03:51 > 0:03:53Here we are.
0:03:53 > 0:03:55JAUNTY MUSIC PLAYS
0:04:00 > 0:04:05There we are, Salty, in your bed. Good girl. Right, there we are.
0:04:05 > 0:04:11Now then. Let's clean that telescope, eh? Yeah.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14Oh, I can't even see the sea!
0:04:14 > 0:04:19Do you know, there was a day when we couldn't see the sea.
0:04:19 > 0:04:24Do you remember? Eh? Let me get comfortable.
0:04:24 > 0:04:31See if I can remember it. Yeah. The telescope, yeah, it'll have to wait.
0:04:31 > 0:04:35Once upon a twinkly time at low tide,
0:04:35 > 0:04:38when the sea had waved goodbye to Staithes,
0:04:38 > 0:04:41the Rainbow was perched on the muddy sea bed,
0:04:41 > 0:04:43looking like it was having a nap.
0:04:43 > 0:04:47"Where's the sea? Where's it gone?" wondered Salty.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50"It's all right, it's all right." I reassured her.
0:04:50 > 0:04:56"The sea always comes back." Twice a day, the sea goes out.
0:04:56 > 0:05:01That's low tide. And then comes back in again. That's high tide.
0:05:01 > 0:05:04But on this particular day,
0:05:04 > 0:05:08the sea did seem to have disappeared completely.
0:05:08 > 0:05:13Gone, vanished into thin...mud. This was serious.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16"Come on," I said. "We need to find the sea."
0:05:16 > 0:05:18Urgh!
0:05:18 > 0:05:22So off we squelched through the mud. Urgh!
0:05:22 > 0:05:26"Have you seen the sea?" I asked a passing seagull.
0:05:26 > 0:05:31"Not since someone pulled the plug out." he cried.
0:05:31 > 0:05:35Salty said, "We should never listen to seagulls."
0:05:35 > 0:05:38but I remembered something.
0:05:38 > 0:05:42Pulled the plug out. "That's it!" I said.
0:05:42 > 0:05:46You see, not everyone knows this.
0:05:46 > 0:05:51Somewhere in the middle of the ocean is an enormous plughole,
0:05:51 > 0:05:55just like the one in your bath, but huge.
0:05:55 > 0:06:01We needed to find the plug and put it back in the plughole and fast.
0:06:01 > 0:06:07And as we squelched along, we came across our friend, Bluey.
0:06:07 > 0:06:11"All right?" He wasn't happy.
0:06:11 > 0:06:14Whales need the sea to swim around and keep cool
0:06:14 > 0:06:16and blow bubbles at fish.
0:06:16 > 0:06:21"Don't worry." I said. "We're going to put the sea plug back in,
0:06:21 > 0:06:26"so the sea can fill up again."
0:06:26 > 0:06:32We carried on trudging through the sludge and muddling through the mud
0:06:32 > 0:06:37until, in the middle of the vast ocean, we found the sea plughole.
0:06:37 > 0:06:42And above it was a huge sea tap.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45And there, swinging the massive plug,
0:06:45 > 0:06:48twirling it round and round like a toy,
0:06:48 > 0:06:52was our old friend, Charlie the squid.
0:06:52 > 0:06:54I said, "Hello."
0:06:54 > 0:06:57And he looked at me,
0:06:57 > 0:07:03then he pulled two bunches of seaweed out of his ears. Pop!
0:07:03 > 0:07:06"That's better." he said.
0:07:06 > 0:07:10Salty wanted to know why he had pulled the sea's plug out.
0:07:10 > 0:07:14"I'm in charge of the tides." said Charlie.
0:07:14 > 0:07:18"When I pull the plug out, the sea goes away, that's low tide.
0:07:18 > 0:07:23"Then when I put the plug back in the hole, the giant tap
0:07:23 > 0:07:27"up there is turned on and whoosh, the sea fills up again.
0:07:27 > 0:07:28"That's high tide."
0:07:28 > 0:07:33"Well," I said, "Please put the plug back in so the sea can fill up.
0:07:33 > 0:07:36"You're upsetting the fish."
0:07:36 > 0:07:40So Charlie popped the enormous sea plug back in.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42BOING!
0:07:42 > 0:07:45Now all we had to do was turn on the giant tap.
0:07:45 > 0:07:51"Ah!" grumbled Charlie. "It's Fred you want to speak to, not me."
0:07:51 > 0:07:53"Fred?" I said.
0:07:53 > 0:07:55"Fred is my brother.
0:07:55 > 0:08:00"It's his job to turn on the sea tap to fill the sea up again."
0:08:00 > 0:08:04And Charlie started to put the seaweed back in his ears.
0:08:04 > 0:08:09Salty wondered why Charlie was doing this and Charlie sighed.
0:08:09 > 0:08:13"Hm...it's Fred." he said.
0:08:13 > 0:08:19"Whenever he turns that tap on, he sings really loud and really badly.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21"It's the same every day.
0:08:21 > 0:08:25"It's so annoying that I'm not speaking to him now."
0:08:25 > 0:08:30Well, we left Charlie and decided to find Fred.
0:08:30 > 0:08:34Well, Fred was perched high on a rock beside the giant tap
0:08:34 > 0:08:39but no water was flowing out. Fred was very upset.
0:08:39 > 0:08:42"What's the matter?" I asked.
0:08:42 > 0:08:47"Normally I can turn the big sea tap on but today, it's stuck.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49"I can't ask my smelly brother to help
0:08:49 > 0:08:54"because he never listens to me." he said, crossly.
0:08:54 > 0:08:57"That's not very kind of you, to call him smelly."
0:08:57 > 0:09:02"Well, he does, he smells of seaweed." said Fred.
0:09:02 > 0:09:07"That's probably because of the seaweed in his ears." thought Salty.
0:09:07 > 0:09:11But this was no time for complaining.
0:09:11 > 0:09:14We needed to fill the sea again.
0:09:14 > 0:09:16Salty and I decided to help.
0:09:16 > 0:09:19We tried turning the tap.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21It really was stuck fast.
0:09:21 > 0:09:26And as we tried, Fred started singing too and let me tell you,
0:09:26 > 0:09:28it was the worst singing ever.
0:09:28 > 0:09:32We tried and we tried, but the tap wouldn't budge.
0:09:32 > 0:09:37In the end, Salty had to ask Fred to stop singing
0:09:37 > 0:09:39as it was so annoying.
0:09:39 > 0:09:41"Sorry!" said Fred.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44So I called out to Charlie below,
0:09:44 > 0:09:48"Come and help your brother turn his tap."
0:09:48 > 0:09:52But Charlie had seaweed in his ears and couldn't hear.
0:09:52 > 0:09:57Salty and I realised we needed to sort this out.
0:09:57 > 0:10:02"Look," I said to Fred. "You work very well when you're apart,
0:10:02 > 0:10:05"but right now you need to work together.
0:10:05 > 0:10:09"If you promise to stop your singing, then maybe Charlie
0:10:09 > 0:10:13"will take his seaweed out and come and help."
0:10:13 > 0:10:19Fred wasn't sure, but he knew that the tap had to get turned.
0:10:19 > 0:10:21"All right." he agreed.
0:10:21 > 0:10:27So Salty nipped down to ask Charlie to take the seaweed out of his ears.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30When he heard that Fred had promised not to sing,
0:10:30 > 0:10:34Charlie agreed to help and made his way up to the giant tap.
0:10:34 > 0:10:38Now, the four of us attempted to turn the tap together.
0:10:38 > 0:10:43It took all our might but after lots of heaving and ho-ing,
0:10:43 > 0:10:45there was a trickle
0:10:45 > 0:10:49and then a gurgling and a gargling
0:10:49 > 0:10:53and a fizzy pop and an almighty splash.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56The sea tap was flowing again.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59The tide could come back in.
0:11:01 > 0:11:06And soon the ocean was filling up and Bluey floated to the surface
0:11:06 > 0:11:11and blew a sigh of relief through his blowhole.
0:11:11 > 0:11:16The fish swam freely once more and the Rainbow was bobbing up
0:11:16 > 0:11:18and down again. Ha ha ha.
0:11:18 > 0:11:22"I couldn't have done it without you, Charlie." said Fred.
0:11:22 > 0:11:25"You're the best brother in the world."
0:11:25 > 0:11:29"Really?" said Charlie. "So are you, Fred."
0:11:29 > 0:11:34"I promise I won't sing unless you ask me." said Fred.
0:11:34 > 0:11:37"And I promise not to put seaweed in my ears
0:11:37 > 0:11:42"and then I'll be able to hear you if you need me." said Charlie.
0:11:42 > 0:11:49Then Fred and Charlie gave each other a big squiddy hug.
0:11:49 > 0:11:51They were friends again.

0:12:25 > 0:12:29- Jack, Salty!- Are you still having trouble with the...?
0:12:29 > 0:12:32Sign, yes, it's trickier than I thought.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35You know, sometimes jobs are much easier done by...
0:12:35 > 0:12:39A large team of builders with lots of heavy equipment?
0:12:39 > 0:12:41No, done by two people helping each other.
0:12:41 > 0:12:46Here, let me hold this up. Just a minute. Here you are.
0:12:46 > 0:12:50- I'll hold this up. - Well, it might just work, I suppose.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52Yeah, well, what do you think? Go on.
0:12:52 > 0:12:56BOING, BOING, BOING!

0:13:17 > 0:13:20Yeah, never mind, Sam. I'll help you. Come on.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23- You see, two pairs of hands are better than...- A pig in a poke?
0:13:23 > 0:13:26- No.- A stitch in time? - No, they are better than one.
0:13:26 > 0:13:30Oh, yes. So they are. What would we do without you, Jack?
0:13:30 > 0:13:34I don't know, ready? Two, three. Come on then.
