DOORBELL RINGS

SHE GROWLS

-Hello, Topsy, the wolf..

-Hi, Grandma. Where's Mummy? Is she all right?

Fine. She's in the kitchen.

-Mummy!

-Hello.

-Raaar!

-Ooh!

-There you are, my little wolf girl.

-Mummy, I'm the Big Bad Wolf.

Oh, yes, of course you are.

-May I have a look at your bandage please?

-Yes.

-Are you all right?

-Course I am. Where's Tim?

He's outside. He's coming in in his house costume.

-Should we go and find him together?

-Yeah.

-Come on.

In you come. That's it. Mind the step.

-Come on, Tim.

-Don't you look great!

Mummy, Mummy, Mummy!

How's your wrist? Please may I hug you?

Oh, of course you can. My wrist is fine.

I want a hug with both of you, please. Oh, thank you.

-I'm so sorry I missed your nursery school play Topsy and Tim.

-It's OK.

It's OK. Have you been to hospital?

Yes. I went to see the doctor and he said my wrist is fine.

It's just a sprain.

That'll teach me to go running and then I fall flat on my face.

-Have a seat, Joy.

-Thank you.

Over here. There we go. Let mummy sit down there.

Now, tell us about your performance of The Three Little Pigs.

-It was great!

-We bowed, like this.

Ooh!

DOORBELL RINGS Ooh, I wonder who that could be?

-I don't know.

-I'll go and get it.

THEY LAUGH

-Hi!

-Hello! Come in!

-Hello, Ray.

-Have a seat, Farah.

How's your arm, Joy?

It's absolutely fine, thank you, Farah. Nothing serious.

-I'm just so sad I missed their play.

-Surprise!

We're going to do our play The Three Little Pigs again. Now!

-Just for you, Mummy. Right here.

-Oh, that's fantastic!

OK. We're going to need a stage. Let's move the sofa.

Joy, sorry, you need to get up again.

-Everybody help. Be careful with Mummy.

-Thank you.

'We get ready to do the play for Mummy.

'Exactly like we did at nursery school.'

'With Ray as our narrator...

'until I remember something important.'

Oh, no! We can't do the play Three Little Pigs,

because we haven't got anyone to be the pigs.

-We do.

-Yes! I'm going to be a pig.

-You'll be good as a pig, Daddy.

-Thank you!

-You need a nose.

-Ooh, yeah.

And please snort loudly.

THEY SNORT

-Please can you open this?

-You're going to be the best pig.

-Get my nose on. You ready.

-Make sure it's nice and tight.

HE SNORTS

LAUGHTER

DOORBELL RINGS

'And this will be another pig.'

-Hello, Kerry.

-Hello!

Here she is! There you go. See you later, Kerry. Hello, everyone!

Bye, Dominique!

THEY ALL TALK AT ONCE

Bye, Dominique!

'Kerry's here to play the second little pig.

I've got somebody very, very special.

'And she brings the third little pig with her.'

Ta-da!

-Oh!

-Yay!

Now we've got three little pigs.

On the play!

THEY ALL TALK AT ONCE

So the first little pig and the second pig

went to find the third little pig,

who had built himself a house of bricks.

Knock, knock, knock. HE SNORTS

-Who is it?

-It's us. Can we come in?

-SQEAKY VOICE:

-Yes, you can.

LAUGHTER

All three little pigs were safely inside the house of bricks,

until one of them finally looked out the window.

Oh! Hello! Who's this coming up the garden path?

It was the Big Bad Wolf. SHE GROWLS

I'm the Big Bad Wolf and I'm still hungry.

Little pigs, Little pigs,

let me come in!

BOTH: Not by the hair on our chinny chin-chin!

Then I'll huff and I'll puff

And I'll... blow your house down!

SHE BLOWS

But no matter how hard she blew,

the Big Bad Wolf could not blow down the house of bricks.

So...

Look out, Wolf. You're not having us for your tea.

Here comes a wolf-chasing ball!

The three little pigs

threw the wolf-chasing ball at the Big Bad Wolf.

Ooh!

And the Big Bad Wolf ran away!

SHE WAILS

And the Big Bad Wolf

was never, ever, ever, ever, EVER seen again.

LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

And the three little pigs lived happily ever after. The end.

APPLAUSE

Oh! I can't clap!

Oh! Poor Mummy can't clap!

SHE WHISTLES

Mummy!

-Mummy!

-Wow! That was such a loud whistle.

-Well, you really deserved it.

-Yes, you did.

-Ah, thank you!

-Will you show me how to whistle like that?

-I will.

-Can you teach me, too?

Of course I can.

-Dad?

-Yes, Topsy?

-You know at nursery school.

-Hm-hm.

Everyone had their pictures taken

with their mummy and their daddies after the plays.

Would you like a picture of you and Tim with Mummy and me?

-Yes, please.

-OK.

HE SNORTS Oh, thank you! Mwah!

Ooh, that's lovely. Can you get in a little bit more? Thank you.

Ready, everybody?

Three, two, one, piggies!

'We all loved having our photographs taken.'

'And then Mummy told us some big news.'

Now, I had an exciting phone call today

while you were doing your nursery school play.

Do you remember Sam and Trish, who came to see our house last week?

BOTH: Yes.

Well, they've decided they want to buy our house.

Wonderful!

'And that's when Dad said, "We've sold our house!"'

We sold our house, Topsy and Tim!

We've sold our house, everybody!

-Fantastic.

-That's absolutely wonderful!

Thank you!

THEY ALL TALK AT ONCE

-Mummy, Dad.

-Yes, darling?

Does that mean we're definitely moving house?

-Yes, it does, Tim. Is that OK?

-Yes I'm OK.

-Oh, hooray for Tim!

-Well done!

TOPSY AND TIM: '"And that" said Mummy, "Was that."'

-BOTH: Hello.

-Are you good at remembering?

Can you remember what happened to us today?

This is our Topsy and Tim memory game. Let's play.

'Today, we performed our play for Mummy,

'but can you remember what part Dad played?'

'Was it the Big Bad Wolf?'

'Or was it a little pig?'

'The answer is behind the cloud.

'Look - the answer is a little pig.

'Watch this.'

Oh, no! We can't do the play Three Little Pigs,

because we haven't got anyone to be the pigs.

-We do.

-Yes. I'm going to be a pig.

-You'll be good as a pig, Daddy.

-Thank you.

-You need a nose.

-Ooh, yes. OK.

And please snort loudly.

HE SNORTS

-Please can you open this?

-You're going to be the best pig.

Get my nose on.

-You ready?

-Make sure it's nice and tight.

HE SNORTS
