0:01:02 > 0:01:04Hee-hee!
0:01:04 > 0:01:08You see, there was a time when Hare didn't hop.
0:01:08 > 0:01:11He just ran and ran and ran.
0:01:12 > 0:01:15Jambo, monkeys! Fancy a race?
0:01:15 > 0:01:16- No way!- What's the point?
0:01:16 > 0:01:18ALL: You always win!
0:01:18 > 0:01:20You never know!
0:01:20 > 0:01:23ALL: Oh, yes, we do! You always win!
0:01:23 > 0:01:24Oh, well.
0:01:24 > 0:01:28You see, Hare was one of the fastest runners in Tinga Tinga,
0:01:28 > 0:01:30until one day...
0:01:32 > 0:01:35ANIMALS SNORE
0:01:35 > 0:01:37Fancy a race?
0:01:37 > 0:01:40Mm-mm! I'm too big.
0:01:40 > 0:01:42I'm too tiny.
0:01:42 > 0:01:43Elephant? Eh?
0:01:43 > 0:01:46I'm too...too...
0:01:46 > 0:01:49- Hare!- Lion, you don't fancy a race, do you?
0:01:49 > 0:01:52Nobody wants to race you because you win all the time.
0:01:52 > 0:01:56It's not good to win ALL the time.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59Chicks! Huh? Huh? Huh?
0:01:59 > 0:02:03Hare! Pick on someone your own size!
0:02:03 > 0:02:05I'll give them a head start!
0:02:05 > 0:02:06I'll race you, Hare.
0:02:06 > 0:02:08ALL: Huh? What?
0:02:08 > 0:02:10THEY LAUGH
0:02:10 > 0:02:12You cannot be serious!
0:02:12 > 0:02:14Oh, but I am!
0:02:14 > 0:02:17Excellent! Let's race this very evening!
0:02:17 > 0:02:18Fine with me!
0:02:18 > 0:02:21It will give me time to prepare.
0:02:21 > 0:02:22Hee-hee-hee!
0:02:22 > 0:02:24< Don't do it, Tortoise!
0:02:24 > 0:02:27It'll be all right, Elephant.
0:02:28 > 0:02:33Ugh! Ee! Ugh! Ugh!
0:02:33 > 0:02:37..And pink and primrose and lilac and blue...
0:02:37 > 0:02:38Chameleon!
0:02:38 > 0:02:41..and rock! Impressive, eh, Tortoise?
0:02:41 > 0:02:43- Amazing.- What's up?
0:02:43 > 0:02:48Well, I'd like some help painting these rocks just like my shell.
0:02:48 > 0:02:51Seeing as you're good with colours...
0:02:51 > 0:02:53Good?! I'm the best!
0:02:53 > 0:02:55Colours is my thing!
0:02:55 > 0:02:57Now, let me see.
0:02:57 > 0:02:59We'll start with a yellow,
0:02:59 > 0:03:02then a little bit of red...
0:03:02 > 0:03:05So, I hear you're racing with Hare.
0:03:05 > 0:03:07Is that, uh, sensible?
0:03:07 > 0:03:09We'll see. We'll see.
0:03:09 > 0:03:11I mean, Hare is fast
0:03:11 > 0:03:15and you... you is SL-L-L-L-L-OW!
0:03:15 > 0:03:17There's always a way.
0:03:17 > 0:03:19Hmm.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21# Hm-hm-hm-hm bamba loo... #
0:03:21 > 0:03:22A-ha!
0:03:22 > 0:03:24What do you think?
0:03:24 > 0:03:28Pretty good likeness! Pretty good likeness!
0:03:28 > 0:03:30- Want me to do the other one?- Mm-hm!
0:03:30 > 0:03:32Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
0:03:32 > 0:03:35- OK!- Ha-ha-ha!
0:03:35 > 0:03:39Ooh! A race! A big race!
0:03:39 > 0:03:42It is so exciting!
0:03:42 > 0:03:46I mean, one of the quickest animals in Tinga Tinga
0:03:46 > 0:03:48versus an overgrown snail!
0:03:48 > 0:03:50Hardly a race, is it?
0:03:50 > 0:03:53It's not too late to say no, Tortoise.
0:03:53 > 0:03:55Don't worry, Elephant.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58Wanyama! Animals!
0:03:58 > 0:03:59The race!
0:03:59 > 0:04:01Ready, steady...
0:04:01 > 0:04:03GO!
0:04:03 > 0:04:06- ELEPHANT TRUMPETS - And they're off!
0:04:06 > 0:04:07ALL: Huh?
0:04:07 > 0:04:09Well, ONE of them is off!
0:04:09 > 0:04:11The other one has barely started!
0:04:11 > 0:04:14TORTOISE PANTS
0:04:14 > 0:04:16ALL: Huh?
0:04:16 > 0:04:18Come on, Tortoise! Come on!
0:04:18 > 0:04:20Come on, Tortoise! Step on it!
0:04:20 > 0:04:24That's your favourite trick, isn't it? Step on it!
0:04:24 > 0:04:28Well, we might as well go and see Hare finish.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31As I said, hardly a race!
0:04:31 > 0:04:34You never know, Tortoise might win.
0:04:34 > 0:04:36TORTOISE CHUCKLES
0:04:36 > 0:04:38- MUFFLED:- ELEPHANT!
0:04:38 > 0:04:41Sorry, Tortoise!
0:04:41 > 0:04:43HE GROANS
0:04:43 > 0:04:45Whoo! Hee-hee!
0:04:45 > 0:04:48- HARE PANTS - Easy, easy!
0:04:49 > 0:04:51- HE GIGGLES - Easy, easy!
0:04:51 > 0:04:55Hmmm, we'll see. We'll see.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57HE CHUCKLES
0:05:00 > 0:05:05Ha! Decided not to race that race? Probably very wise.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07Oh, I'm racing, all right.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09Just taking a small shortcut.
0:05:09 > 0:05:10Good luck!
0:05:11 > 0:05:13- HARE PANTS - Hmm?
0:05:15 > 0:05:17Huh? How did Tortoise get ahead of me?
0:05:19 > 0:05:22Ha-ha! Tortoise is very clever.
0:05:22 > 0:05:23LIZARD LAUGHS
0:05:23 > 0:05:25Well, he's not beating ME!
0:05:25 > 0:05:27HARE PANTS
0:05:30 > 0:05:31Huh?
0:05:32 > 0:05:36Impossible! Tortoise can't be ahead of me again!
0:05:36 > 0:05:38Oh, he's clever.
0:05:38 > 0:05:42But look at him, he's hardly moving.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44Clever Tortoise!
0:05:44 > 0:05:46It's Tortoise!
0:05:46 > 0:05:47Oh, come on! That's it!
0:05:47 > 0:05:49Come on, Tortoise!
0:05:49 > 0:05:50You can do it!
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Come on, Tortoise, come on!
0:05:52 > 0:05:55ALL: Yeah! Woo!
0:05:55 > 0:05:57Tortoise has won the race.
0:05:57 > 0:05:59Tortoise, you won!
0:05:59 > 0:06:02Tortoise beating Hare? This isn't right.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05I want a re-match, kesho - tomorrow.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07Oh, all right, then.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10But I'll still win.
0:06:10 > 0:06:11Impossible!
0:06:11 > 0:06:13ANIMALS CHATTER
0:06:13 > 0:06:16Ready, steady, go!
0:06:16 > 0:06:18ELEPHANT TRUMPETS
0:06:20 > 0:06:23Hee-hee! This time I'll definitely win.
0:06:26 > 0:06:30Huh?! I can't remember THIS being here! Hmm...
0:06:30 > 0:06:32THIS way!
0:06:34 > 0:06:37Hee-hee! I think I'll go...
0:06:37 > 0:06:40THIS way. Hee-hee!
0:06:40 > 0:06:43HARE PANTS
0:06:45 > 0:06:48Tortoise won! Tortoise won!
0:06:48 > 0:06:51- But that's impossible! - Fancy a race?
0:06:51 > 0:06:54Yes, I do fancy another race!
0:06:54 > 0:06:56And so they raced...
0:06:56 > 0:06:58ELEPHANT TRUMPETS
0:06:58 > 0:07:01- ..and they raced... - ELEPHANT TRUMPETS
0:07:01 > 0:07:04- ..and they raced! - ELEPHANT TRUMPETS
0:07:04 > 0:07:06But Hare never, ever won.
0:07:06 > 0:07:10- HARE PANTS - Jambo, Mama Cheetah.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13You can win, Hare! You can win!
0:07:13 > 0:07:16Hee-hee! Ha-ha!
0:07:16 > 0:07:18HE PANTS
0:07:18 > 0:07:21TORTOISE GROANS WITH EFFORT
0:07:21 > 0:07:23Ha-ha!
0:07:24 > 0:07:27Whee! Hoo-hoo!
0:07:27 > 0:07:29Come on, Hare! Come on!
0:07:30 > 0:07:32Huh?!
0:07:32 > 0:07:34Ha-ha! Fancy a race?
0:07:34 > 0:07:39You're very clever, Tortoise, but it's not good to win ALL the time.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42Maybe you should let Hare win just once, hmm?
0:07:42 > 0:07:44- Hee-hee!- Mm-hm.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46We will race tomorrow.
0:07:46 > 0:07:50However, this will be the last race.
0:07:53 > 0:07:57- What are you doing, Tortoise? - Oh, nothing, Hen.
0:07:57 > 0:08:01Just picking these thorns from the tree. ..Ow!
0:08:01 > 0:08:04Not nice, you see - all spiky and sharp.
0:08:04 > 0:08:09- Might even prick your chicks - we wouldn't want that.- Oh, no.
0:08:09 > 0:08:11Let ME help.
0:08:11 > 0:08:13Right.
0:08:16 > 0:08:20Oh, dear, we can't leave spikes just lying around.
0:08:20 > 0:08:23- We should clean them up.- No, no, no!
0:08:23 > 0:08:27Don't worry yourself, Hen. I'll clean them up myself.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30Thank you, Tortoise - asante.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32Chick-chicks!
0:08:32 > 0:08:34I can't wait!
0:08:34 > 0:08:36- Hurray!- Come on, Hare!
0:08:36 > 0:08:40- Come on, Hare!- Is it about to start?- Yes, it is!
0:08:40 > 0:08:43- Ready, steady...go! - ELEPHANT TRUMPETS
0:08:43 > 0:08:46- Come on, Hare!- You can win, Hare!
0:08:46 > 0:08:50Look at that, Croc - look! Here he comes!
0:08:50 > 0:08:52- Go, Hare, go!- Go, go, go!
0:08:52 > 0:08:54- Go, Hare, go!- Go!
0:08:54 > 0:08:57Hee-hee!
0:08:57 > 0:09:01- Come on, Hare, you can do it! - Come on, Hare!- Come on, Hare!
0:09:01 > 0:09:05Hey, Tortoise! Going to give Hare a chance this time, eh?
0:09:05 > 0:09:07Maybe. Hee-hee!
0:09:07 > 0:09:10Try, Hare - really try!
0:09:10 > 0:09:12I AM trying!
0:09:13 > 0:09:15- Ooh!- Oh!
0:09:15 > 0:09:18Ouch! Something's pricking my feet!
0:09:18 > 0:09:19Ah! Ooh! Ooh!
0:09:19 > 0:09:22Oh! The spiky thorns!
0:09:22 > 0:09:24Oh, Tortoise!
0:09:24 > 0:09:26Ooh! Ooh! Ouch! Ooh!
0:09:26 > 0:09:29Ouch! Ouch! Uh! Oh...
0:09:29 > 0:09:32Hmm... And hop! Ooh, hoo-hoo!
0:09:33 > 0:09:37Hop, hop! Hoo-hoo! And hop! And hop!
0:09:37 > 0:09:41- Ha-ha!- Hop, hop!- Hee-hee!

0:09:44 > 0:09:48And hop! And hop! And hop! And hop!
0:09:48 > 0:09:50Hee-hee! And hop! And hop!
0:09:50 > 0:09:54- Tortoise!- Tortoise again?!- I don't believe it!- Look - it's Hare!
0:09:54 > 0:09:57And hop! And hop! And hop!
0:09:57 > 0:09:58And hop! And hop!
0:09:58 > 0:10:01- What's he doing?- Hopping.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03- Come on, Hare!- Come on!
0:10:03 > 0:10:05And hop! And hop!
0:10:05 > 0:10:07And ho-o-o-o-p!
0:10:07 > 0:10:12Unusual technique, Hare. But I declare you the winner!
0:10:12 > 0:10:15CROWD CHEERS
0:10:15 > 0:10:19Oh, I could hop for joy!
0:10:19 > 0:10:22Do it, Hare - hop for joy!
0:10:22 > 0:10:25THEY ALL LAUGH
0:10:25 > 0:10:28And that's why Hare hops.
0:10:28 > 0:10:32From that day on, he just hopped and hopped and hopped! Hop! Hop!
0:10:32 > 0:10:37Hop! Hop! Hop! Hop! Hop! Hop!
0:10:37 > 0:10:40- Well, it's not good to win ALL of the time, is it?- Ha-ha!
0:10:41 > 0:10:44Clever, clever Tortoise!
0:10:44 > 0:10:47So slow...
0:10:47 > 0:10:50but so clever! Hee-hee!
0:10:50 > 0:10:53SOMEBODY'S got to clear these thorns up!
0:10:53 > 0:10:56And Hen pecking the ground...
