Whose family are we going to meet today?

Eva's.

Eva is four years old and lives with her mum,

stepdad Karl

and baby brother Ben

in a town.

She also spends lots of time with her dad, who lives close by.

I wonder what they're up to today.

Whoa!

This morning, Eva's being a hairdresser

and she's going to pretend to cut Mum's hair.

-Will you do mine first, will you?

-Yeah.

OK, I'll sit on a cushion.

-So you're comfortable...

-OK.

-..and it won't hurt your knees.

Did you brush your hair today?

-I did, yes.

-Then why is it still tangled?

-Just gets tangly, doesn't it, after a little while?

-Yes.

I brush my hair a lot, and then it gets tangly.

-Yeah?

-Do you want any colours on your hair?

-Stunning.

-Ooh, yes, please.

We've got pink, red...

..green,

gold and purple.

Oh, I'll have pink and gold, please.

-Pink and gold?

-Yeah.

-Right.

Eva's pretending to change the colour of Mum's hair.

Do you want it long, or just short?

-Oh, I'd like you to cut it, please, nice and short.

-OK.

-I'll just pretend my fingers are my scissors.

-OK, OK.

-I'd like it cut now - just there, about that length.

-OK.

-Is that it?

-Yeah, that seems a good length.

Mum's hair's looking great, Eva.

What's next?

SHE MAKES SWOOSHING SOUND

-What are you putting on now?

-Blush.

-Yeah?

Ah, make-up.

SHE PUFFS

-Go have a look.

-Another look? OK,

I'll go and have another look.

Eva, that's lovely, I love it.

Really nice.

Now it's Eva's turn...

..and Mum is the hairdresser.

Ponytail here and a plait here.

I think it might look a little bit strange

with a ponytail AND a plait.

-No, I want it.

-Would you not like one or the other?

-No.

-You want a plait and a ponytail?

-Yes.

-OK.

Mum, for school can I have a ponytail and a plait?

If you'd like. Well, we'll do this and see what you think, all right?

That is going to look super-duper.

There we go, what do you think of that?

You haven't done a plait.

Feel there? Feel the side of your head.

-Oh, yeah.

-Go have a look in the mirror.

Oh, looking good, Eva.

Eva's waiting for a special call.

PHONE RINGS

Should we answer it?

-"Matt Wrok."

-Matt Work.

Matt... Matt Work?

So he's at work?

It's her dad.

-Hi.

-Hiya, Daddy.

-Hi, Eva, are you OK?

-Yep.

Are you coming over tonight?

Yes, babe, I'm coming over after work.

I'll pop in on my way home, sweetheart.

-We've been playing hairdressers.

-Mm-hm.

Playing hairdressers?

Do you want to see Eva's lovely hairstyle?

Shall we show Dad your lovely hair?

-Wow.

-She wanted a plait and a ponytail...

-Wow.

-..so that's what she got.

Did you cut Mummy's hair?

You did, didn't you? You cut it nice and short.

-Have you been to work?

-Daddy's at work at the moment.

-ROBOTIC:

-You work as a paramedic.

Being a paramedic at work, that's right.

Yes, you have.

Are you being a robot?

Yes, I am a robot.

-Eva The Robot?

-Evabot.

I am a robot. I am a robot. I am a robot.

I'm going to have to go back to work, sweetheart.

Blow kisses to Dad.

I'll see you tonight, darling, after work.

Kisses are going all over you.

Oh, no...

Kiss attack! Kiss attack!

See you tonight after work, sweetheart.

-OK.

-OK, love you.

-Love you.

-Bye.

It's a date -

Dad's going to visit Eva on his way home.

Eva's stepdad Karl is helping her make some fruit smoothies.

I'm making lots of smoothies for my shop.

You slice the bananas.

What's Karl doing with the peel?

Elephant, Eva?

Oh, cool, it's an elephant.

I see - it's a trunk and big ears.

Will we put a jelly in? Yeah?

Jelly in a smoothie?!

What colour do you think it will go, Eva?

-Red.

-Go a bit red, do you think?

Yes.

BLENDER WHIRS

-Is it red?

-Yeah. A little bit.

Orangey-red.

Everyone's going to come

to my shop and buy one.

-How much are they?

-They're free.

-Three pounds?

-No.

-Three pence?

-No.

-£300?

-No!

-£3,000?

-No, free so you can take them

-without paying them.

-Oh.

Free?! That's kind of you, Eva.

Time for the first customer of the day.

Do you want anything from the shop?

How much are the smoothies today?

-Free.

-Free? Oh.

Going to have this one, then.

You have to drink it all in one go.

-Hi.

-Hi.

Can I join the shop?

Yes, you can.

Hello, who's this wanting a smoothie?

-'Can I have a smoothie, please?'

-Yes.

They're free today.

-'I'll have that one.'

-OK.

Make sure you don't get your whiskers wet.

-Oh, he's actually getting them wet.

-'Mm, delicious.'

I'll actually drink it to make Ratty drink it, OK?

'Who has pinched my smoothie?'

-No, I'm eating it...

-KARL LAUGHS

..to make Ratty eat it.

Oh, wow, Ratty's drinking that all up.

-Ratty likes it.

-Oh.

'I'll come back another day.'

I've got to go to work so I'll have to leave the shop.

-Oh. So you can go then.

-Thank you.

MUM LAUGHS

See you next week.

And there's one last customer.

'I'll have two smoothies, please.'

-Which flavour?

-'That one.'

This one? Here you go, little boy.

Mm...num-num-num.

I hope you had a lovely smoothie.

'It was lovely, thank you.'

You're very welcome.

Maybe there'll be some left for Dad later.

It's the end of the day,

and Eva's waiting for her dad.

Do the lines...

Cross...

-How's your picture coming on, Eva?

-Good.

-That's lovely colouring, Eva.

-Thanks, Mum.

Is Dad going to be here soon?

-Yeah, he's on his way.

-Phew.

When Dad comes, why don't we give him a smoothie

so he gets his vitamins for the day?

Oh, yeah.

Dad's popping in to see Eva on his way home after work.

DOORBELL RINGS

-Dad.

-Dad's here.

-Are you going to go get the door?

-Yep.

I'll let you go and answer it.

Go let Dad in.

HE ROARS, SHE LAUGHS

-Hi, Daddy.

-You OK?

-Whee.

-Yep.

-How've you been?

-Good.

-Have you had a nice day?

-Yep. Mm-hm.

-Mm-hm?

Mum shared her colouring book.

-You've got a colouring book?

-No, Mum shared hers.

Mum shared her colouring book?

-Yeah, I'll show you.

-Come on.

-Show me your colouring book.

-No, it's Mum's.

-It's Mum's?

-Do you want to help us?

-What is it?

-It's an owl.

-Which bit can I do?

You can do...

any of it you want.

What have you made for Dad?

Smoothies.

-HE GASPS

-Smoothies?!

-Take Dad through and get a smoothie.

-You made me a smoothie?

-Yep.

Eva has saved a smoothie especially for Dad.

Eva, don't tell Dad what's in it yet. Let him drink it here.

Thank you.

Can you guess what's in the smoothie, Dad?

Mm. Did you make that?

-I think there's banana in there.

-Mm-hm.

Orange juice?

Apple?

Just banana and orange juice?

-You're close.

-Close?

What else is in it?

-You have to guess.

-Erm...let's have a look.

-More fruit?

-No.

Oranges and ice cubes.

Ice cubes?! The ice cubes must have melted,

but it's absolutely gorgeous!

Thank you very much.

I wonder who we'll meet next time on...
