0:00:02 > 0:00:03Let's go!
0:00:04 > 0:00:08Ah! That looks heavy.
0:00:11 > 0:00:13Ha-ha-ha-ha!
0:00:18 > 0:00:20Wow!
0:00:21 > 0:00:23I like that!
0:00:32 > 0:00:34Tellytales!
0:00:38 > 0:00:39Ha-ha-ha-ha!
0:00:42 > 0:00:46- This tale is called...- Dancing Rose.
0:00:49 > 0:00:52Once upon a time, in the land of Egypt
0:00:52 > 0:00:56there lived an old man named Snoreus.
0:00:56 > 0:00:58HE SNORES
0:00:58 > 0:01:02He was always asleep, as you can see.
0:01:02 > 0:01:07And he was always snoring, as you can hear.
0:01:07 > 0:01:10- Shall we wake him up?- Yes!
0:01:10 > 0:01:13Wake up, Snoreus!
0:01:13 > 0:01:16Wake up, Snoreus!
0:01:16 > 0:01:20Wake up, Snoreus!
0:01:20 > 0:01:21Ha-ha-ha-ha!
0:01:21 > 0:01:24Snoreus was very old.
0:01:24 > 0:01:28So, he had three servants to help him in his house.
0:01:32 > 0:01:35Silky did all the cooking.
0:01:37 > 0:01:40Sulky did all the cleaning.
0:01:45 > 0:01:51Rose was the youngest servant and she did all the washing.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54Aww, poor thing!
0:01:55 > 0:01:56But do you know what?
0:01:56 > 0:02:02She had to go down to the river to do it, all on her own.
0:02:02 > 0:02:04Aww!
0:02:04 > 0:02:08And there was always loads and loads of washing to do.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10Aww!
0:02:10 > 0:02:14But Rose didn't mind being by the river,
0:02:14 > 0:02:16because she had a special friend.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19- A hippo.- A hippo?!
0:02:19 > 0:02:23- Yes, I said, a hippo.- Ooh!
0:02:23 > 0:02:26The hippo came to see her every day.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29Sometimes, Rose danced for the hippo.
0:02:29 > 0:02:35The hippo loved to watch Rose dance to the beautiful music of the river.
0:02:35 > 0:02:40Ahem! Music! I said, music, please.
0:02:42 > 0:02:44MUSIC PLAYS
0:02:44 > 0:02:48# The music of the river
0:02:48 > 0:02:52# Splashing all around
0:02:52 > 0:02:57# How can I be lonely when I hear that lovely sound?
0:02:59 > 0:03:02# My feet just have to dance
0:03:02 > 0:03:04# My feet just have to dance
0:03:04 > 0:03:12# Whenever I hear that sound...
0:03:16 > 0:03:19# My darling hippopotamus
0:03:19 > 0:03:22# You are a friend so true
0:03:22 > 0:03:28# How can I be lonely when I've got friends like you?
0:03:30 > 0:03:33# My feet just have to dance
0:03:33 > 0:03:35# My feet just have to dance
0:03:35 > 0:03:41# Whenever I hear from you...
0:03:44 > 0:03:50# Whenever I hear from you. #
0:03:52 > 0:03:57One day, Snoreus saw Rose's beautiful dancing.
0:03:57 > 0:03:59He was delighted.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08He had this idea.
0:04:10 > 0:04:16The next day, a messenger arrived with a parcel from the shoemaker.
0:04:18 > 0:04:19Wow, what's that?
0:04:19 > 0:04:24Look! A pair of dancing slippers for Rose.
0:04:24 > 0:04:27They were a present from Snoreus.
0:04:27 > 0:04:30How beautiful they were,
0:04:30 > 0:04:34- and how Rose loved them.- Wow!
0:04:34 > 0:04:37But how jealous Silky and Sulky were of Rose.
0:04:37 > 0:04:38Oh-oh!
0:04:41 > 0:04:46Ahem! Mr Messenger, have you got anything else to deliver?
0:04:46 > 0:04:49Are you sure?
0:04:49 > 0:04:53Yes! A very important letter.
0:04:53 > 0:04:56From the most important man in Egypt.
0:04:56 > 0:04:57The Pharaoh himself.
0:04:57 > 0:04:59Ooh!
0:04:59 > 0:05:02Pharaoh was having a party
0:05:02 > 0:05:05and everyone was invited!
0:05:05 > 0:05:07A party!
0:05:07 > 0:05:10Snoreus set out for the palace straightaway.
0:05:10 > 0:05:15When the girls had finished tidying up, they could follow him.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19Rose was SO excited.
0:05:19 > 0:05:22She could wear her new slippers to the party.
0:05:22 > 0:05:27But Silky and Sulky said, no, Rose could not go to the party.
0:05:27 > 0:05:32There were all the plates to clear and all the sweeping to do.
0:05:32 > 0:05:38And most of all, there were piles and piles of washing.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40Oh, no!
0:05:40 > 0:05:43So, Silky and Sulky left for the party.
0:05:43 > 0:05:49- And Rose was left all alone. - Oh! That's not fair!
0:05:51 > 0:05:56Rose did her washing. She didn't feel like dancing now.
0:05:56 > 0:05:57No.
0:05:57 > 0:06:03To cheer Rose up, the hippo thought she would do a dance instead.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08Oh, no! She's wet!
0:06:08 > 0:06:10Oh, no.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12Rose's slippers were soaked.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18BIRD SQUAWKS
0:06:18 > 0:06:22But suddenly, a huge bird snatched one of the slippers
0:06:22 > 0:06:23and carried it away.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27FANFARE
0:06:27 > 0:06:32Meanwhile, at the party, Pharaoh wasn't enjoying his party at all.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35He loved dancing.
0:06:35 > 0:06:39But there was no-one he wanted to dance with.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42- He was really fed-up.- Oh, dear!
0:06:42 > 0:06:44Then, suddenly...
0:06:44 > 0:06:46How amazing!
0:06:46 > 0:06:49A beautiful rose-coloured slipper.
0:06:50 > 0:06:51Who could it belong to?
0:06:51 > 0:06:54- It had to belong to a wonderful dancer.- Ssh!
0:06:54 > 0:06:58Pharaoh wanted to meet her right away.
0:06:58 > 0:07:02Silky and Sulky knew whose slipper it was.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06But they pretended it belonged to them.
0:07:06 > 0:07:10No, it doesn't belong to you.
0:07:12 > 0:07:15And it doesn't belong to you.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18Poo!
0:07:18 > 0:07:22Silky and Sulky's feet were really, really smelly!
0:07:24 > 0:07:29Of course, there was someone else who knew whose slipper it was.
0:07:29 > 0:07:32Wake up, Snoreus!
0:07:32 > 0:07:34Wake up, Snoreus.
0:07:34 > 0:07:37Wake up, Snoreus!
0:07:37 > 0:07:40When Snoreus said it was Rose's slipper,
0:07:40 > 0:07:44- Pharaoh said he wanted to meet her.- Ooh!
0:07:44 > 0:07:48They would all sail back to Snoreus' house,
0:07:48 > 0:07:50in the royal boat.
0:07:57 > 0:07:58The slipper fits!
0:07:58 > 0:08:04And Pharaoh and Rose danced and danced, happily ever after.
0:08:05 > 0:08:07The end.
0:08:07 > 0:08:12# Leave your work aside dancing Rose, dancing Rose
0:08:12 > 0:08:16# The Pharaoh and the party came to you
0:08:16 > 0:08:21# You've worked so hard all day dancing Rose, dancing Rose
0:08:21 > 0:08:25# It's time for you to play
0:08:33 > 0:08:37# The slipper fits you well dancing Rose, dancing Rose
0:08:37 > 0:08:41# The story that we will need
0:08:41 > 0:08:46# The Pharaoh came for you dancing Rose, dancing Rose
0:08:46 > 0:08:50# With his love for you so true
0:08:53 > 0:08:57# So, dance... #
