0:01:52 > 0:01:55- SQUEAK-SQUEAK! - It's very annoying, you know.

0:01:58 > 0:02:02You're frightening the seagulls. Poor thing. Sorry, Mr Seagull!

0:02:02 > 0:02:04- She didn't mean it. - SQUEAK-SQUEAK!

0:02:09 > 0:02:12Thank you for the tea, Captain Periwinkle.

0:02:12 > 0:02:14See you soon.

0:02:14 > 0:02:17- JACK CHUCKLES - Greetings, Miss Bowline-Hitch.

0:02:17 > 0:02:21Hello, Jack. How's Salty getting on with her squeaky?

0:02:21 > 0:02:22SQUEAK!

0:02:22 > 0:02:25- GULL SQUAWKS Ooh, it IS loud!- Yeah, isn't it?

0:02:25 > 0:02:28I don't suppose you've got anything you could swap for it?

0:02:28 > 0:02:31- Ooh, I think I have!- What?

0:02:31 > 0:02:33- Here, a tennis ball. - Oh, perfect! Yes.

0:02:33 > 0:02:35- Good idea. - SQUEAK!

0:02:35 > 0:02:38Let's swap. You love a tennis ball, don't you, girl?

0:02:38 > 0:02:40- The perfect swap.- Yeah!

0:02:40 > 0:02:43Thank you, Miss Bowline-Hitch, we'll see you later.

0:02:43 > 0:02:45- Hah, bit of a push, there. - BELL RINGS

0:02:45 > 0:02:50Well, we've solved the squeaky problem, Salty. Back to the Rainbow.

0:02:50 > 0:02:52- HE CHUCKLES - I'm so pleased about that!

0:02:52 > 0:02:54Come along, Squeaky Dog.

0:03:03 > 0:03:05There she is. The Rainbow.

0:03:05 > 0:03:08But what have you got for us today, me dear?

0:03:08 > 0:03:10WHISTLE BLOWS

0:03:10 > 0:03:12Come on, Salty.

0:03:12 > 0:03:15HE HUMS TO HIMSELF

0:03:15 > 0:03:16Here we are.

0:03:27 > 0:03:28Yeah! That's right, Salty.

0:03:28 > 0:03:31You settle yourself down there.

0:03:31 > 0:03:33That was a good swap, that was, wasn't it?

0:03:33 > 0:03:36That squeaky toy for a tennis ball.

0:03:36 > 0:03:40You know, the last time I made a swap like that,

0:03:40 > 0:03:42it all went wrong for a while.

0:03:42 > 0:03:44Do you remember?

0:03:44 > 0:03:49Let me get myself comfortable, and I'll tell you the story.

0:03:49 > 0:03:53This will whiffle your whiskers, girl.

0:03:53 > 0:03:57Once upon a twinkly time, we set off from Staithes,

0:03:57 > 0:04:01waved goodbye to Whitby, and disappeared over the horizon.

0:04:01 > 0:04:04# Just Salty Dog and me... #

0:04:04 > 0:04:06- WHISTLE BLOWS - # Upon the briny sea

0:04:06 > 0:04:09# Sailing off without a care

0:04:09 > 0:04:12# We'll find an adventure any-old-where

0:04:12 > 0:04:13# We don't have a plan

0:04:13 > 0:04:15# We're as happy as clams

0:04:15 > 0:04:18# Just Salty Dog and me. #

0:04:18 > 0:04:19WHISTLE BLOWS

0:04:19 > 0:04:24Now, Salty and I never set sail without our packed lunches.

0:04:24 > 0:04:26Salty likes biscuit bones,

0:04:26 > 0:04:29and I usually have cheese and tomato sandwiches

0:04:29 > 0:04:34with a sprinkling of black pepper, but on this particular day,

0:04:34 > 0:04:37I don't know, I felt like something different.

0:04:37 > 0:04:41Well, just then, who should appear but Kitty Cutlass,

0:04:41 > 0:04:44the trickiest pirate ever to sail the seas.

0:04:44 > 0:04:47"Ha-ha, hello, me old diamonds!" said she.

0:04:47 > 0:04:50"Want to swap packed lunches?"

0:04:50 > 0:04:54And she waved her lunchbox at us like it was a little treasure chest.

0:04:54 > 0:04:58"I have cheese and tomato sandwiches in mine," I said.

0:04:58 > 0:04:59"What's in yours?"

0:04:59 > 0:05:04"Something different." said Kitty, mysteriously.

0:05:04 > 0:05:07"Oh!" I thought. "I like the sound of that."

0:05:07 > 0:05:09So, we swapped.

0:05:09 > 0:05:12Kitty Cutlass let out a "Woo-hoo-hoo!"

0:05:12 > 0:05:16and before you could say "befuddling bamboozlers",

0:05:16 > 0:05:17she'd sailed off.

0:05:17 > 0:05:20"Right, Salty, my girl," I said,

0:05:20 > 0:05:23"let's see what tasty lunch we have here." Hah!

0:05:23 > 0:05:29I opened up the lunchbox and we peered inside, and what did we see?

0:05:29 > 0:05:33Nothing but dried beans. Hundreds of them.

0:05:33 > 0:05:35Not a sandwich in sight.

0:05:35 > 0:05:39Kitty Cutlass had tricked us yet again.

0:05:39 > 0:05:43"I'm not a dried bean sort of a dog," Salty snorted.

0:05:43 > 0:05:48Unfortunately, it was a big snort, and with a "whoomph!"

0:05:48 > 0:05:51all of the beans flew over the side of the boat.

0:05:51 > 0:05:55Almost immediately, from deep down below,

0:05:55 > 0:06:00we heard a "boom-baum, boom-baum, schlup!"

0:06:00 > 0:06:07A huge plant burst out of the sea, showering us with salty spray.

0:06:07 > 0:06:11Ooh, it was an amazing twisty thing with enormous colourful leaves

0:06:11 > 0:06:14that pointed downwards to the bottom of the ocean.

0:06:14 > 0:06:18"What a strange, magnificent plant!" I said.

0:06:18 > 0:06:22"That looks like an enormous sea beanstalk."

0:06:22 > 0:06:26And there's only one thing to do with one of them!

0:06:26 > 0:06:30Climb down the pointy leaves to the bottom of the ocean.

0:06:30 > 0:06:34So, before you could say "haggling haddocks",

0:06:34 > 0:06:36we were under the ocean.

0:06:36 > 0:06:40We hadn't climbed down for long when we met Mr and Mrs Cod.

0:06:40 > 0:06:43"Do you know what's at the bottom

0:06:43 > 0:06:46"of this enormous sea beanstalk?" I asked.

0:06:46 > 0:06:48"Tell them, Harold," said Mrs Cod.

0:06:48 > 0:06:51"Yes, dear," said Mr Cod.

0:06:51 > 0:06:54"We've-We've no idea," said Mrs Cod.

0:06:54 > 0:06:58"Well," said I, "why don't you come with us?"

0:06:58 > 0:07:03We carried on, clambering down the enormous sea beanstalk,

0:07:03 > 0:07:07and before long a whole crowd of sea creatures were following us.

0:07:07 > 0:07:11Down and down the enormous sea beanstalk we went,

0:07:11 > 0:07:14to see what we could find at the bottom.

0:07:14 > 0:07:17"I think we've made it, Salty," said I,

0:07:17 > 0:07:20as I stepped onto the seabed.

0:07:20 > 0:07:23"Oh, whoa!" we all exclaimed.

0:07:23 > 0:07:30Before us was an enormous underwater castle with twinkling turrets

0:07:30 > 0:07:32and beautiful spires.

0:07:32 > 0:07:35But there was something odd about the castle.

0:07:35 > 0:07:39We knocked at the huge, wooden castle door.

0:07:39 > 0:07:40KNOCK-KNOCK-KNOCK

0:07:40 > 0:07:42And the door swung open.

0:07:42 > 0:07:48Inside was a grand banqueting room with a huge table all set out

0:07:48 > 0:07:51with giant-size knives and forks and plates,

0:07:51 > 0:07:54and giant-size candlesticks.

0:07:54 > 0:07:56But there were no people at the table,

0:07:56 > 0:07:59and there was no food on the plates.

0:07:59 > 0:08:03And suddenly... we heard a very sad sound.

0:08:03 > 0:08:06HE SOBS

0:08:09 > 0:08:12Somebody was sobbing very loudly.

0:08:12 > 0:08:14Salty's ears pricked up.

0:08:14 > 0:08:17It seemed to be coming from under the table.

0:08:17 > 0:08:21Salty and I took a peek, and shiver me timbers!

0:08:21 > 0:08:26What did we see but a giant the size of a small mountain,

0:08:26 > 0:08:29all squidged up under the table.

0:08:29 > 0:08:35He stared at us with big, sad eyes, and a tear rolled down his cheek.

0:08:35 > 0:08:39"Hello!" says I. "You all right under there?"

0:08:39 > 0:08:46The giant looked at us in amazement. "Visitors!" he cried.

0:08:46 > 0:08:50Then he squeezed his enormous body out from under the table.

0:08:50 > 0:08:51"Agh!"

0:08:51 > 0:08:52POP!

0:08:52 > 0:08:54Pop!

0:08:54 > 0:08:57"Whatever's the matter?" I asked the giant.

0:08:57 > 0:09:00"I'm lonely," sniffled the giant.

0:09:00 > 0:09:04"I live in a forgotten castle in the middle of who knows where,

0:09:04 > 0:09:08"and no-one ever comes to visit me."

0:09:08 > 0:09:09HE SOBS

0:09:09 > 0:09:13"Well, don't be sad," I said.

0:09:13 > 0:09:18"A magic sea beanstalk has just grown up outside your castle."

0:09:18 > 0:09:24"Has it?" said the giant, sadly. "Will that help me?"

0:09:24 > 0:09:29"Oh, yes," I replied, "everyone loves an enormous sea beanstalk!"

0:09:29 > 0:09:35"Really?" said the giant." "That's excellent news."

0:09:35 > 0:09:39And then Salty's whiskers whiffled.

0:09:39 > 0:09:43She remembered all the sea creatures who were waiting outside.

0:09:43 > 0:09:47"We have lots of friends with us," she said.

0:09:47 > 0:09:50Yes, you did. Yes. "I'm sure they'd like to come and visit."

0:09:50 > 0:09:54"Oh, that would be splendid!" said the giant."

0:09:54 > 0:09:56And he chuckled happily, didn't he?

0:09:56 > 0:09:59So, Salty fetched all the sea creatures,

0:09:59 > 0:10:02and they crowded round the giant's table.

0:10:02 > 0:10:06"Oh, help yourself to lunch!" boomed the giant.

0:10:06 > 0:10:09"But there isn't any food," Salty whispered,

0:10:09 > 0:10:11staring at the empty plates.

0:10:11 > 0:10:13HE CHUCKLES

0:10:13 > 0:10:16"Ooh, silly me!" said the giant,

0:10:16 > 0:10:20and he waggled his enormous thumbs.

0:10:20 > 0:10:26As if by magic - which it was - food appeared on all the plates,

0:10:26 > 0:10:28and dog biscuits for Salty, too.

0:10:30 > 0:10:34"Oh, it's very nice here, isn't it, Harold?" said Mrs Cod."

0:10:34 > 0:10:37"Yes, dear," said Mr Cod.

0:10:37 > 0:10:41"Stay as long as you like," said the giant, happily.

0:10:41 > 0:10:45"Er, and I'd love to look at your wonderful garden,"

0:10:45 > 0:10:46said the gardener fish.

0:10:46 > 0:10:52"Oh, I must show you my sea cabbages!" said the giant.

0:10:52 > 0:10:54"Now that we know you're here,

0:10:54 > 0:10:58"you'll never be lonely again," I told the giant.

0:10:58 > 0:11:01"Oh, splendid!" he shouted.

0:11:01 > 0:11:04"Yes, everyone's welcome!"

0:11:04 > 0:11:09Well, soon it was time for Salty and I to get back to the Rainbow.

0:11:09 > 0:11:11So, we waved goodbye to the giant

0:11:11 > 0:11:15and left him to natter with his new friends.

0:11:15 > 0:11:21"Well, Salty," I said, when we were safely back on board the Rainbow,

0:11:21 > 0:11:23"we had a lovely adventure today.

0:11:23 > 0:11:28"And it was all thanks to Kitty Cutlass's beans.

0:11:28 > 0:11:31"Hah! Who would've thought it?"

0:11:31 > 0:11:36And with that, we set sail for Staithes and home.

0:11:44 > 0:11:47Did you like that story, Salty?

0:11:47 > 0:11:48All true, of course.

0:11:48 > 0:11:51Mind you, my stories always are.

0:11:51 > 0:11:53HE CHUCKLES

0:11:53 > 0:11:54Come on, girl.

0:11:59 > 0:12:00HE HUMS TO HIMSELF

0:12:06 > 0:12:08Come along, girl.

0:12:08 > 0:12:09No! Leave it!

0:12:09 > 0:12:11- Hello!- Back!

0:12:11 > 0:12:12That's Emily.

0:12:12 > 0:12:15- What's going on? - Back! Leave it!- Come on, Salty.

0:12:15 > 0:12:17- Back! - GULL SQUAWKS

0:12:17 > 0:12:19- Back, all of you!- Whoa, whoa!

0:12:19 > 0:12:22- Is there a problem, Emily? - Ooh, I'll say.

0:12:22 > 0:12:23- It's my popcorn.- Yeah?

0:12:23 > 0:12:26Those naughty seagulls won't leave it alone.

0:12:26 > 0:12:29I've tried everything to scare them away.

0:12:29 > 0:12:30SALTY BARKS

0:12:30 > 0:12:34Even Salty's barking won't get rid of them.

0:12:34 > 0:12:37No, no, I think she's trying to tell me something.

0:12:37 > 0:12:41Is it the tennis ball you want, eh? Is it...? Oh! Hey!

0:12:41 > 0:12:43- I did...- What's all that about?

0:12:43 > 0:12:45Do you know, I've no idea.

0:12:45 > 0:12:48Oh, dear.

0:12:49 > 0:12:51BELL RINGS

0:12:51 > 0:12:53Ooh! Hello, Salty.

0:12:53 > 0:12:55You look busy-busy!

0:12:55 > 0:12:57Oh, I know what you want.

0:12:57 > 0:13:00You want your old squeaky back, don't you?

0:13:00 > 0:13:03Here. Swapsie.

0:13:03 > 0:13:04Hm!

0:13:04 > 0:13:06SQUEAK-SQUEAK!

0:13:06 > 0:13:09Oh, it's always the popcorn with you lot, isn't it?

0:13:09 > 0:13:12- Always the popcorn! - SQUEAK-SQUEAK!

0:13:12 > 0:13:15Go on, Salty! Oh, you've got your squeaky toy again!

0:13:15 > 0:13:18Honestly - can't you see we're busy? Honestly!

0:13:18 > 0:13:19SQUEAK!

0:13:19 > 0:13:21- GULLS SQUAWK - Oh, look!

0:13:21 > 0:13:23- SQUEAK! - Salty, you've done it!

0:13:23 > 0:13:26- You've got rid of those naughty seagulls!- Yeah!

0:13:26 > 0:13:30- Clever dog!- Yeah, you swapped it for the tennis ball,

0:13:30 > 0:13:34- didn't you, girl, eh?- Looks like you're stuck with that squeaky

0:13:34 > 0:13:36- for the rest of the day, Jack! - Yeah!

0:13:36 > 0:13:40Listen, we'd better stay here and help you guard the popcorn.

0:13:40 > 0:13:45- Can we have a bit, please? - Oh, you're as bad as the seagulls!

0:13:45 > 0:13:47Oh, I just want a bit! Look at that!

0:13:47 > 0:13:49Oh, lovely!
