0:00:23 > 0:00:25- We're here to help! Hello! - All right?- Morning!

0:00:25 > 0:00:27- HE BURPS - Who is it, Linda? >

0:00:27 > 0:00:30- Some boys at the door. - What do they want?- What do you want?

0:00:30 > 0:00:33- Any jobs need doing round the house? - Plastering?- Cracks need covering?

0:00:33 > 0:00:37- No thank you, Brian deals with that. - HE BLOWS WHISTLE

0:00:37 > 0:00:38Dib, dib! Dob, dob!

0:00:38 > 0:00:40Dib, dib! Dob, dob!

0:00:42 > 0:00:45- I'm not sure you heard me. - All right, lads, let's get to work.

0:00:45 > 0:00:50- I thought I told you...- Cup of tea? - No, I've just had one.

0:00:52 > 0:00:55- Now, listen...- Slice of lemon? Spot of milk? - Well, just milk, thanks.

0:00:57 > 0:00:58- Sugar?- Er...

0:01:00 > 0:01:03- Fruitcake?- I'm sorry?! How rude! Oh, I see.

0:01:06 > 0:01:08Right, job done. Let's get going.

0:01:08 > 0:01:11Dib, dib! Dob, dob! Dib, dib! Dob, dob!

0:01:11 > 0:01:15- Cheers for now!- What exactly... did you do?

0:01:16 > 0:01:18Hello?

0:01:18 > 0:01:19Ohhh!

0:01:25 > 0:01:27Hiya. Harry Bolds here.

0:01:27 > 0:01:30Bolding it up wherever bolding it up needs to be done!

0:01:30 > 0:01:33And today, I'm taking the boldness envelope

0:01:33 > 0:01:36and stretching it to dangerous new levels, as I go...

0:01:36 > 0:01:37..gardening!

0:01:37 > 0:01:40I know you're probably thinking, "Don't do it, Harry!

0:01:40 > 0:01:44"That's not going to end well!" But it's OK, cos I've been to a shop

0:01:44 > 0:01:46and a bloke sold me everything I could possibly need.

0:01:46 > 0:01:49Plus, I've got my friend here to help. Terry Brave!

0:01:49 > 0:01:51All right, everyone?

0:01:51 > 0:01:54Terry - brilliant. OK. Kit time.

0:01:54 > 0:01:58What are you going to need for gardening? Number one - a garden!

0:01:58 > 0:01:59This is a very special one.

0:01:59 > 0:02:03It's made of space metal, invented by science,

0:02:03 > 0:02:05and it's called gardinium.

0:02:05 > 0:02:08I know it looks like normal mud, but it's not. It's special metal.

0:02:08 > 0:02:10What else? Gardening gloves!

0:02:10 > 0:02:14Gardening boots! Gardening trousers! Gardening shirt!

0:02:14 > 0:02:18And under here - gardening pants! I'm not showing you those.

0:02:19 > 0:02:23OK, what else have I got? Trimmer! Blower! Snippers!

0:02:23 > 0:02:28Scyther! Choppers! Grabber! Cutter! Whacker! And bucket.

0:02:28 > 0:02:32- I've got this old spade I borrowed off my granddad.- Nice!

0:02:33 > 0:02:36And of course, a little teensy seed for planting.

0:02:36 > 0:02:37What have you got, Terry?

0:02:37 > 0:02:41I've got Cheesy Puffs. And I'm going to plant this bulb.

0:02:41 > 0:02:44I'm not sure that's the sort of bulb you can plant.

0:02:44 > 0:02:47Isn't it? Oh, well, I'll give it a go.

0:02:47 > 0:02:49HE SIGHS I'm dead worried about Terry.

0:02:49 > 0:02:53He's right out of his depth. Oh, well, let's go gardening!

0:02:57 > 0:03:00No...it's not for me.

0:03:00 > 0:03:02I quite enjoyed it.

0:03:02 > 0:03:06ELECTRICITY HUMMING

0:03:14 > 0:03:19Brave Viking warriors. As you know, I have spent the last few days in conference

0:03:19 > 0:03:22with Magnus, chief of the tribe in the next valley.

0:03:22 > 0:03:23THEY MUTTER IN DISAPPROVAL

0:03:23 > 0:03:27No, no, no, I know that we were sworn enemies,

0:03:27 > 0:03:30but this is a new age of Viking co-operation.

0:03:30 > 0:03:34Chief Magnus and I have resolved our differences

0:03:34 > 0:03:39and agreed to join forces, so that we may see our tribes through the leaner times.

0:03:39 > 0:03:44So we shall fight and hunt together as one. Hmm?

0:03:44 > 0:03:47Do I get an "Oh, yeah"?

0:03:47 > 0:03:49ALL: Yeah...

0:03:49 > 0:03:51That was pathetic, I could hardly hear you!

0:03:51 > 0:03:55But the tribe in the other valley are nasty Vikings!

0:03:55 > 0:03:58They're forever playing practical jokes on us.

0:03:58 > 0:04:01I think we all remember the time they persuaded us

0:04:01 > 0:04:05that our horns were supposed to go on the INSIDE of our helmets.

0:04:05 > 0:04:08- THEY GROAN - That is all in the past.

0:04:08 > 0:04:10We are brothers now, huh?

0:04:10 > 0:04:12Now, as a mark of respect,

0:04:12 > 0:04:16Chief Magnus has sent us a can of peanuts each.

0:04:16 > 0:04:19A can of peanuts each? How generous!

0:04:19 > 0:04:22I didn't even know that peanuts came in tins.

0:04:22 > 0:04:25What a delicacy! Mmm.

0:04:27 > 0:04:33I think, as a mark of trust, we should all open our cans of peanuts

0:04:33 > 0:04:38- simultaneously, huh? After three. One, two...- Wait, wait!

0:04:38 > 0:04:42After three, or ON three?

0:04:42 > 0:04:44Oh, er, AFTER three. Yes?

0:04:44 > 0:04:46Mmm, yes.

0:04:46 > 0:04:51- One, two...- Er, so it's one, two, open?

0:04:51 > 0:04:55- Or one, two, three, open? - I like the last one best.

0:04:57 > 0:04:59One, two, three, open!

0:05:00 > 0:05:02LOUD SQUEAKING NOISES

0:05:07 > 0:05:09THEY ALL SCREAM WITH FRIGHT

0:05:14 > 0:05:16What's all the fuss about?

0:05:17 > 0:05:22Your results are back, and it looks like you've got Can't Take Directions Syndrome.

0:05:22 > 0:05:25- Oh, no!- Don't worry, there is a treatment.

0:05:25 > 0:05:30Just take this to the pharmacy, down the corridor and second on the left.

0:05:30 > 0:05:32Thanks very much.

0:05:37 > 0:05:39KNOCKING AT DOOR

0:05:39 > 0:05:41Hi, I'm looking for the pharmacy.

0:05:43 > 0:05:45I think a visit to the little girls' room!

0:05:45 > 0:05:47Well, we both have had a lot of pop.

0:05:47 > 0:05:49Oh, look, it's a teepee!

0:05:49 > 0:05:51Oh, it's occupied. Hello!

0:05:51 > 0:05:55Oh, it's like the TARDIS, but it's no bigger on the inside than it is on the outside.

0:05:55 > 0:05:58- We like your wigwam. - Yes! Are you a squaw?

0:05:58 > 0:06:03No, I am the seventh daughter of a seventh daughter.

0:06:03 > 0:06:07- Gosh, it must be hectic round yours. - I will show you my psychic powers.

0:06:07 > 0:06:10- Are you a cyclist? - Oh, like that lovely Chris Hoy!

0:06:10 > 0:06:13- Lovely legs.- You don't have legs like that, though.- Who has?

0:06:13 > 0:06:16No-one these days, bar Alan Titchmarsh, and...oh!

0:06:16 > 0:06:18BOTH: Kanye West!

0:06:18 > 0:06:22No, a PSYCHIC. My crystal ball will tell all.

0:06:22 > 0:06:24- What, like a radio?- Does it do the Light Programme?

0:06:24 > 0:06:31- Classic FM?- Happy hardcore? - No, I will gaze into my crystal ball and see into the future.

0:06:31 > 0:06:32Oh! Well, that could be useful.

0:06:32 > 0:06:37- Could you skoosh forward a week and see how my sponge cake comes out? - She's baking for the WI contest!

0:06:37 > 0:06:44- It's being judged by Dr Conway! - Oh, the good doctor. He is rather dashing.- Oh, stop it, dear!

0:06:44 > 0:06:47- Well, he is something of a slice. - Such powerful hands!- Ooh!

0:06:47 > 0:06:51- I should like to know how my sponge rises.- Yes, do it! Make it work.

0:06:51 > 0:06:54First you must cross my palm with silver.

0:06:54 > 0:06:58- Oh, it's like that, is it?- I see! - Nothing's free these days!

0:06:58 > 0:07:03No, apart from those ring binders they give away with partwork magazines.

0:07:03 > 0:07:06- And you have to buy Part One to get that!- So they're not free at all!- No!

0:07:06 > 0:07:10And this crystal ball nonsense, I bet that'll cost you a pretty penny.

0:07:10 > 0:07:13And the further into the future you go, the more you have to pay!

0:07:13 > 0:07:18- Double for Sundays, no doubt. - Ooh, the nerve!- You wouldn't get much change out of £1,000

0:07:18 > 0:07:23- just to pop into the future and see if I can bake a cake properly. - £1,000?- I'd say so.

0:07:23 > 0:07:27- I suppose that's what these things cost these days.- This is just £2...

0:07:27 > 0:07:32- £1,000?!- It's absurd!- Ridiculous! - I won't pay £1,000!

0:07:32 > 0:07:35Just to see if my sponge gets me the glad eye from Dr Conway!

0:07:35 > 0:07:39Come on, dear. Let's leave here immediately, fly to Paris, buy 1,000 cakes

0:07:39 > 0:07:41and blockade Dr Conway in his house.

0:07:41 > 0:07:47- Good day.- I hope you look into the future and find something unpleasant happens to you.

0:07:47 > 0:07:49Like your tongue is replaced with a toe!

0:07:50 > 0:07:53- Well, that was nice. - Did you have a wee?- Yes.- Me too!

0:07:53 > 0:07:55Don't think she saw THAT coming!

0:07:55 > 0:07:57CHEERING AND SCREAMING

0:07:59 > 0:08:01OK, Steph, good luck.

0:08:01 > 0:08:03Go out there and do your best. You're on!

0:08:03 > 0:08:05< Steph from London!

0:08:05 > 0:08:07AUDIENCE CHEERING Next!

0:08:14 > 0:08:15What can I do for you?

0:08:15 > 0:08:19Well, I'm here to audition for Talent UK, obviously.

0:08:19 > 0:08:22OK... What will you be singing for us today?

0:08:22 > 0:08:23Er, "Halo" by Beyonce.

0:08:23 > 0:08:26Right. Well, as you know,

0:08:26 > 0:08:29we don't audition everyone in front of the judges,

0:08:29 > 0:08:32- so if you could just wait a little bit...- Hey, whoa!

0:08:32 > 0:08:36- Don't you want to hear me sing? - I don't think it's a good idea. - Oh, right, right.

0:08:36 > 0:08:39- Not "pop star material", am I? - It's not that. Erm...

0:08:39 > 0:08:44I've got just as much right to go out there and perform in front of the judges as anyone else.

0:08:44 > 0:08:47It's just... you're a snowman.

0:08:47 > 0:08:50Yeah, I prefer the term "person of frozen aquatic origin."

0:08:50 > 0:08:53- The lights are really hot! - You're making a big mistake, mate.

0:08:53 > 0:08:56I don't think you want me to go to the newspapers

0:08:56 > 0:09:01and say how your show discriminates against people who are a bit different, do you?

0:09:01 > 0:09:03OK, OK, we'll get you on the show.

0:09:05 > 0:09:08HE EXHALES OK, you're on in 30 seconds.

0:09:13 > 0:09:16# You're everything I need and more

0:09:16 > 0:09:19# It's written all over your face

0:09:19 > 0:09:22# Baby, I can feel your halo

0:09:22 > 0:09:25# I pray it won't fade away

0:09:25 > 0:09:27# I can feel your halo, halo, halo

0:09:27 > 0:09:31# Halo, halo, halo, halo

0:09:31 > 0:09:33# I can feel your halo, halo, halo

0:09:33 > 0:09:36# Halo, halo, halo, halo

0:09:36 > 0:09:39# I can feel your halo, halo, halo... #

0:09:39 > 0:09:41- AUDIENCE BOOING - Aagh! Aagh!

0:09:41 > 0:09:43Could we go again?

0:09:43 > 0:09:45I think I could probably have done that a bit better.

0:09:59 > 0:10:01LOCK CLICKS OPEN

0:10:03 > 0:10:06WHISTLE BLOWS Oi, you!

0:10:14 > 0:10:16No safe cracking!

0:10:30 > 0:10:31Sorry I'm late!

0:10:33 > 0:10:38- Aren't many here today.- It's always quiet this time of year.

0:10:38 > 0:10:41- BRANCH SNAPS - What was that?

0:10:41 > 0:10:42Dunno.

0:10:49 > 0:10:50Muntjacs!

0:10:54 > 0:10:58Well, well, well. What are you lot doing in muntjac territory?

0:10:58 > 0:11:01This is not muntjac territory, this is OUR clearing!

0:11:01 > 0:11:06Seems to me, this clearing belongs to whoever wants it most,

0:11:06 > 0:11:09and right now, I'm guessing that's...us!

0:11:10 > 0:11:12Not today, muntjacs!

0:11:12 > 0:11:15Oh, no! It's Steven, back from Switzerland!

0:11:21 > 0:11:23We should go!

0:11:23 > 0:11:26Hold on! We've got every right to be here.

0:11:26 > 0:11:28I thought this was a deer club!

0:11:28 > 0:11:32Yes, but muntjacs are not true deer!

0:11:32 > 0:11:35He knows! He knows! We should definitely go!

0:11:35 > 0:11:39All right! You win this time, Steven!

0:11:39 > 0:11:42You can have your clearing!

0:11:42 > 0:11:44Rubbish, anyway!

0:11:50 > 0:11:52- HE BRAYS - Who is that?

0:11:52 > 0:11:57- It's Steven, back from Switzerland! - He's magnificent!

0:11:58 > 0:12:00HE GROWLS

0:12:00 > 0:12:0415,001... 15,002.

0:12:04 > 0:12:08Oh, hello there! I didn't hear you come in.

0:12:08 > 0:12:10You know, keeping a tidy kitchen

0:12:10 > 0:12:13is an important part of a busy cook's life,

0:12:13 > 0:12:17and I've just been reorganising my recipes into alphabetical order.

0:12:17 > 0:12:20All 15,000 of them...

0:12:20 > 0:12:22It's taken me 27 hours...

0:12:22 > 0:12:25But well worth it...

0:12:25 > 0:12:29Anyway, now it's time for a quick snack and a break,

0:12:29 > 0:12:33but it's not a biscuit for me! Oh, no, to the biscuits!

0:12:33 > 0:12:35And oh, no, to the French fancies!

0:12:35 > 0:12:39No, for me, it's a good, old-fashioned...

0:12:39 > 0:12:42blueberry. PFRRRRRT!

0:12:42 > 0:12:46Ooh! Bit of backdraft... PFRRRRRT!

0:12:46 > 0:12:52Oh! I just had a bit of afterburn... PFRRRRRT!

0:12:52 > 0:12:54CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:13:12 > 0:13:14- Oh, it's Cindy's birthday!- Yay!

0:13:14 > 0:13:15Now, you're both old enough now

0:13:15 > 0:13:18to have a nice meal out at a lovely restaurant,

0:13:18 > 0:13:20so, table manners, please, everyone.

0:13:20 > 0:13:22Ooh!

0:13:22 > 0:13:24Ooh!

0:13:24 > 0:13:28Remember...we may be dung beetles,

0:13:28 > 0:13:30but we're as good as anyone else in here.

0:13:30 > 0:13:34- Voila.- Ooh! Thank you.

0:13:34 > 0:13:36One for you, pass them on.

0:13:36 > 0:13:42Cor, blimey! Look at the prices on here! Ha! No starters, anyone.

0:13:42 > 0:13:48And no fizzy drinks! Maxwell, you're eight years old,

0:13:48 > 0:13:51- you're ordering off the children's menu.- Dad! I'm not a kid!

0:13:51 > 0:13:57- I'm 11!- I know! Hunch down in your chair. Good boy!

0:13:57 > 0:14:01Mum! Mum, is that Debbie McCormack's mum and dad over there?

0:14:01 > 0:14:05They've got a swimming pool. Can we have a swimming pool?

0:14:05 > 0:14:07They're bees, Cindy. I'm sure we'd have a pool

0:14:07 > 0:14:11if your dad worked in honey, like Debbie's father.

0:14:11 > 0:14:14Stupid, stripy show-off! Oi! Gerald!

0:14:14 > 0:14:20Gerald! Watch you don't sting anyone on the way out. You might die!

0:14:20 > 0:14:23- DAD LAUGHS - Bonjour!

0:14:23 > 0:14:26- May I take your order? - Oh(!)- I'll have...

0:14:26 > 0:14:30the, um, buffalo-dung salad, no dressing,

0:14:30 > 0:14:32Maxwell, dung, beans and chips, and, Cindy?

0:14:32 > 0:14:38Can I have dauphinoise potatoes, stuffed aubergines and...?

0:14:38 > 0:14:41- THUD! - Ow! Actually, second thoughts,

0:14:41 > 0:14:44I think I'll just have dung on toast, thank you.

0:14:44 > 0:14:48And I will take the elephant dung, por favour.

0:14:48 > 0:14:51Tony! Watch your waistline!

0:14:51 > 0:14:54Fine. The kangaroo dung. And four tap-waters.

0:14:54 > 0:15:00So, that is, four dungs, and four tap-waters. Tres bien(!)

0:15:00 > 0:15:03- Maxwell, have you washed your hands? - Mum! Yes!

0:15:03 > 0:15:05- All of them?- Yes!

0:15:05 > 0:15:10- Well, don't!- Your dungs.

0:15:10 > 0:15:13- Eurgh!- What is it now?

0:15:13 > 0:15:17Can't you smell that? Somebody stepped in something!

0:15:17 > 0:15:20Eurgh! Maxwell, lift your foot up!

0:15:20 > 0:15:26- Eurgh!- Oh, Maxwell! Get it out of here, it stinks!

0:15:28 > 0:15:32Why is he still here?! You promised you'd make him leave!

0:15:32 > 0:15:35- Yes, yes, and I will.- And why do I have to take him to school with me?!

0:15:35 > 0:15:39- He is a French exchange student. - He's YOUR French exchange student!

0:15:39 > 0:15:44He's the same age as you! He should have left in 1988!

0:15:44 > 0:15:47Well, perhaps at the end of this term.

0:15:47 > 0:15:50- He's been bullying people at school. - Really?

0:15:50 > 0:15:53He steals their lunch money and spends it on strong cheese!

0:15:53 > 0:15:58Right...! Right, I shall have a word.

0:16:00 > 0:16:02LOUD MUSIC PLAYS

0:16:02 > 0:16:05- VOLUME LOWERS - Ah, Philippe!

0:16:05 > 0:16:07Here you are. Salut!

0:16:07 > 0:16:12Now... Now, Philippe, I'm rather disappointed in you.

0:16:12 > 0:16:17- Je ne comprende pas.- Je suis... rather disappointed with you.

0:16:17 > 0:16:21- Quoi?- I appears that you have been bullying other children,

0:16:21 > 0:16:24which...which really rather takes the biscuit.

0:16:24 > 0:16:26Bus...cuit?

0:16:26 > 0:16:28- Bis...bis...biscuit.- Bus...cuit?

0:16:28 > 0:16:30- Biscuit?- Basket? Joue en basket?!

0:16:30 > 0:16:32Formidable! J'adore ca!

0:21:23 > 0:21:28'and this is Valerie Carpenter, head and only teacher at the school

0:21:28 > 0:21:30'which has only one pupil.'

0:21:30 > 0:21:36The, er, school newspaper, of course, is a very important project.

0:21:36 > 0:21:40'Because it introduces vocational skills into the curriculum?'

0:21:40 > 0:21:43No, no, because it's the only form of news on the whole island.

0:21:43 > 0:21:46Apart from the blackboard outside the Post Office, of course.

0:21:46 > 0:21:50- The one with the picture of the cat. - 'Yes, Mr Marmaduke. We saw that.'

0:21:50 > 0:21:53Although, Mr Marmaduke disappeared in 1998,

0:22:26 > 0:22:29- C and then A.- 'Um...'

0:22:30 > 0:22:31It's carpenter.

0:22:31 > 0:22:34'But carpenter only has nine letters, the clue says ten.'

0:22:34 > 0:22:38Oh, eh. Well, that's because I like to spell my name as the French do -

0:22:38 > 0:22:39with two R's.

0:22:39 > 0:22:43- Carpenterr.- 'Carpenterr?'

0:22:43 > 0:22:46- Carpenterr.- 'Right, I've never seen it spelt like that before.'

0:22:46 > 0:22:50No, well. Um... It is a cryptic crossword so...

0:22:52 > 0:22:55- Oh.- I've brought...

0:22:55 > 0:22:59I've brought the new words for my ferry advertisement, Valerie.

0:23:03 > 0:23:05Oh, yes. I do one every edition.

0:23:05 > 0:23:07'But you're the only ferry service on the island.'

0:23:07 > 0:23:10Aye, have you seen my slogan?

0:23:11 > 0:23:14The thing is if I didnae do it then people might forget

0:23:14 > 0:23:18and try to swim and so it's a matter of public safety really.

0:23:18 > 0:23:22- 'Right.'- Miss, Miss! I've got a scoop.

0:23:36 > 0:23:40And I've managed to bag an exclusive interview with my subject.

0:23:42 > 0:23:46'So, Ross. How does it feel to be top of the class again?

0:23:46 > 0:23:49'Oh. Well, Ross, it's a great honour and completely a...'

0:23:49 > 0:23:52Ross, I'm not sure this is quite the heart of the story.

0:23:52 > 0:23:56Why is this boy achieving such great results?

0:23:56 > 0:23:58- Hard work and talent?- No.

0:23:58 > 0:24:01Because he's receiving such great teachings, you know?

0:24:01 > 0:24:03Perhaps that should be the headline.

0:24:03 > 0:24:05Local teacher excels again.

0:24:05 > 0:24:07I'm not sure that's the angle I want to go with, Miss.

0:24:07 > 0:24:11Em, could we not put my advert on the front page?

0:24:11 > 0:24:12- No.- No!

0:24:12 > 0:24:15No-no. We're going to need to think of a headline though

0:25:02 > 0:25:05- You're not looking in the camera, for a start.- Right, yes.

0:25:05 > 0:25:08I was distracted, there was a wasp in the booth.

0:25:08 > 0:25:11Plus you didn't take your hat off, you have to take those again.

0:25:11 > 0:25:14Right. Um...

0:25:14 > 0:25:16When I've taken them,

0:25:19 > 0:25:22- You're going to have to cue again I'm afraid.- What?
