-# They sleep well and get up early

-to make time to play their tricks

-# Things don't always go to plan.

-They have such crazy times #

-What a sunny, fresh, glorious day.

-It's just like a newborn baby.

-Have you ever seen such a thing?

-Sion, I'd like you to meet Dafydd.

-He's your brother.

-Dafydd, this is Nia, your sister.

-Nia, this is Sion.

-Tadcu, I know my own brothers!

-You'd never know that

-by looking at you.

-What do you mean, Tadcu?

-What do you mean, Tadcu?

-

-It's a sunny day!

-The three of you

-should be playing together outside.

-Together?!

-Together?!

-

-We can't play together, Tadcu.

-You've tried, have you?

-Not really.

-Not really.

-

-Did you and Aunt Mali play together?

-Well, yes we did.

-Are you sure?

-Are you sure?

-

-Ah, well.

-There was a time when Mali and I

-never played together.

-One day, we were forced to do it.

-It all happened one afternoon...

-..during the biggest storm

-I've ever seen.

-It was a huge storm. Yes, indeed.

-It meant just one thing to me.

-I couldn't go out to play.

-Don't bother, Porchell!

-We don't have a signal

-and that's it.

-Don't even think about going out.

-I wasn't going to go out.

-I just wanted to take a peek.

-It sounds like

-the storm's stopping.

-I may as well check.

-Rain on a Saturday

-should be illegal!

-It's bound to stop...

-..eventually.

-Until then, you'll have to

-find something to do indoors.

-Dress up, with me and Margaret.

-Dress up, with me and Margaret.

-

-I don't think so!

-I was a prisoner in my own home...

-..without my friends,

-Dwynwen and Ffyrgi.

-You didn't even have a telly!

-You didn't even have a telly!

-

-Or CDs.

-Or video games.

-That's right.

-It was just me and my imagination.

-Porchell!

-I'm busy.

-Then, something happened

-to change the afternoon completely.

-Dadi came in with the news that

-a fence had come down in the storm.

-If we don't mend the fence,

-the animals will escape.

-Wow! We'd better get going.

-You don't need your coat, son!

-You're staying indoors.

-You need help and I don't mind

-being wet and muddy.

-There's a more important job

-for you here.

-Really?

-Really?

-

-Yes. You can look after your sister.

-Your father and I will be out, so we

-need someone to be in charge here.

-You're leaving me in charge?

-You mean I'm the king of the castle?

-Yes, until

-we get that fence repaired.

-I don't want any trouble.

-I don't want any trouble.

-

-Of course not.

-You will take care of your sister?

-You will take care of your sister?

-

-Mm-hmm.

-She's as precious

-as pirates' treasure to me.

-My mother and father

-went to repair the fence...

-..so I was in charge of the house

-and in charge of Mali.

-Psst! Listen up, flock!

-Have you noticed

-there's a bit of water here?

-Of course not! Nothing gets

-through that thick wool of yours!

-I'm sensitive! I notice

-things like torrential rain!

-That's it! I'm going to find

-somewhere which is less soggy.

-Hold my calls!

-You heard Mam and Dad! I'm the boss

-and I'll get this place organized.

-Be careful! I'm firm but fair.

-Do you understand?

-This is my first rule.

-We must have fun.

-THEY MAKE AEROPLANE NOISES

-Oh, no!

-Oh, no! I'm losing control!

-What next, Porchell? What next?

-Hush! I'm thinking.

-We could play house, with Margaret.

-We could play house, with Margaret.

-

-No, no! I've got an idea.

-There are alligators everywhere!

-We must avoid them.

-If not, we'll be alligator soup!

-As long as you don't

-touch the floor, you're safe.

-The alligator almost got me!

-Ha, ha! I'm too quick for you!

-It's your turn, Mali.

-Can you go to the radio?

-Without touching the floor!

-You told me to go to the radio.

-You told me to go to the radio.

-

-You can't touch the floor!

-If you do,

-the alligators will get you!

-What alligators?

-Look out!

-I like him. He's lovely.

-He'll eat you for supper!

-Watch out!

-There's another one behind you.

-This river

-is full of alligators, Mali.

-They're chasing after you!

-I don't like this game.

-Let's play something else, please!

-Let's play something else, please!

-

-Alright, alright.

-We'll play something else.

-King!

-King!

-

-Oh! You took my pieces!

-Come on - give me a king.

-Give them back!

-I don't have to - they're mine.

-I want my pieces back right now!

-No! I jumped over them,

-so you must give me a king.

-I want... (SHE SOBS)

-..Mami!

-Mami!

-Mamiiiiiiiiiiiiii!

-Just you wait until Mam hears

-what a bad loser you are.

-She won't be happy with you.

-You stole her pieces, Porchell?

-I didn't steal them!

-I won them, fair and square.

-You said alligators would eat her!

-You said alligators would eat her!

-

-They were only pretend ones.

-He said I had to give him a king.

-We were playing draughts!

-It's true, Mami!

-It's true, Mami!

-

-Mali, hang your coat over the bath.

-It will dry there.

-I'll have a word with Porchell.

-Alright, Mami.

-Mam, She lost the pieces!

-I didn't steal them.

-I know.

-I was playing with her,

-like you told me to do.

-I know, but you can't beat Mali

-in a game of draughts.

-Yes, I can.

-It's easy because she's hopeless!

-Beating her at a game

-isn't playing with her.

-You want me to lose, on purpose?

-You want me to lose, on purpose?

-

-No, that's not what I mean.

-Having a little sister

-is an amazing thing...

-..but it's also

-a huge responsibility.

-Who does she look up to?

-Who does she look up to?

-

-I don't know... oh, me?

-Yes, of course!

-You must realize your little sister

-isn't as mature as you.

-She needs someone to help her

-and to look after her.

-When I'm not here, that's your job.

-Do you understand?

-I didn't understand a word

-Mam had said...

-..but she had to go and repair the

-fence and I knew I'd work it out...

-..so I said...

-Yes, I understand.

-Good! No more running out

-into the rain today.

-No, Mam.

-I did it, Mami.

-I did it, Mami.

-

-Good girl.

-Porchell will take care of you.

-Porchell will take care of you.

-

-Oh! Alright.

-I'm hungry.

-I'm hungry.

-

-Come on, then.

-Chef Porchell will prepare the best

-sandwich you've ever tasted!

-First, you need a spoonful of jam.

-Mami doesn't do it like that.

-She starts with butter.

-Yes, that's because

-she's a grown-up.

-This is Porchell's Special Sandwich.

-It's not like any other sandwich.

-Now then, on top of the jam

-goes two slices of cheese.

-Mami doesn't...

-A fresh tomato and some pickle.

-A fresh tomato and some pickle.

-

-Porchell!

-Cabbage leaves. Who doesn't love

-a crunchy sandwich?

-Finally, some yellow mustard.

-What do you think of it?

-Mami doesn't do that!

-No, of course not!

-This is Porchell's Special Sandwich.

-I don't like your sandwiches.

-I like Mami's sandwiches.

-You haven't tried it yet.

-Mami!

-Alright, alright!

-I'll make it the way Mami makes it.

-Look at this place!

-No wonder nobody lives here.

-Oh, what's this?

-Hello! My shelter from the rain.

-Maybe not.

-Excuse me.

-Coming through!

-Sorry.

-I don't mean to be rude...

-..but it smells like

-someone's been eating beans!

-What did I say?

-Will you read a story to me,

-Porchell, please?

-I've only just made you lunch.

-I've only just made you lunch.

-

-Mami always reads to me after lunch.

-Alright.

-You don't want this again, do you?

-You don't want this again, do you?

-

-It's my favourite.

-In Fairy Land, there was a pretty,

-pink palace on a fluffy cloud.

-You're meant to show me the picture.

-And in the palace

-there lived a princess.

-Her name was Princy Plumme.

-There she is! That's the princess.

-There she is! That's the princess.

-

-Yes. She's the only one on the page!

-Princy Plumme was the most beautiful

-princess who lived in the palace.

-She had pretty, pink hair...

-..and she wore a pretty, pink dress.

-Even a pretty, flying pony...

-Oh, this isn't a real book!

-It doesn't end like that.

-The Adventures of Buck Bravo!

-This is a proper book.

-I want Princy Plumme!

-This will be better. Listen!

-Buck Bravo was the bravest sheriff

-in the Wild West.

-Everyone felt safe

-when he was around.

-Where is the Wild West?

-Where is the Wild West?

-

-In America. The cowboys live there.

-Wherever there was trouble,

-they called him...

-..and Buck would ride to the rescue.

-..and Buck would ride to the rescue.

-

-Did he save princesses?

-There are no princesses

-in the Wild West, Mali!

-Buck would ride

-his faithful horse, Culhwch.

-Can Culhwch fly?

-Can Culhwch fly?

-

-No! Horses can't fly.

-Princy Plumme's horse can fly.

-And they lived happily ever after.

-The End.

-Mali and I had to play together

-for the rest of the day...

-..so I let her choose

-some of the games.

-I built a fortress...

-..which was strong enough

-to protect us from our enemies.

-That didn't go to plan, either!

-Yuck! This is what I call a cave!

-It's dark, it's dirty

-and it's full of bats.

-But it's dry. It's wonderfully dry.

-Hey, not bad! Not bad at all.

-HE SOBS

-After several unsuccessful attempts,

-I found a way to entertain us both.

-Or so I thought.

-Woof, woof, woof!

-This is a magpie.

-Croak, croak!

-And what's this? Could it be?

-Yes - it's a beautiful swan.

-You've got to stay inside!

-I want to cuddle the swan.

-You can't do that, Mali.

-Where is the swan? Where is it?

-It's right here!

-You've got a swan! I saw it!

-No - I was using my hands.

-No - I was using my hands.

-

-But I saw it!

-I haven't got a swan!

-You've got a swan,

-but you're not sharing it with me.

-Mami!

-Oh no, you don't!

-You can't tell Mami I won't share

-an imaginary bird with you!

-I'm sorry. Don't cry.

-Let's have a tea party.

-Margaret can come and I'll read

-the story about Princy Plumme.

-Come on! Please?

-Come on! Please?

-

-You were mean to me, Porchell!

-I only wanted to see the swan!

-Suddenly, I understood

-what Mami tried to tell me.

-Mali, you think I've got a swan,

-don't you?

-I saw its shadow.

-Mali was too young

-to understand things, like me.

-I was her big brother, so it was

-my responsibility to help her.

-Mali, I created that shadow

-with my hands.

-I'll show you how it's done,

-then you can make one, too.

-Really? You can do that?

-If not, or my ears will turn blue

-and I'll eat only sprouts for ever!

-Alright, Porchell.

-When I was teaching Mali to make

-shadow puppets, something happened.

-I actually

-started to have fun myself!

-Helping my little sister to learn

-new things made me feel good.

-Mali, what else was pink?

-Her hair.

-Mali, what else was pink?

-Her dress.

-What colour was her flying pony?

-What colour was her flying pony?

-

-Pink!

-Dear me! How did you do that?

-King, king, king!

-You're too good for me, Mali.

-You're a champion draughts player.

-# This world is grey and miserable

-# There is no comfort to be found #

-Sing along!

-# I dream of the pretty meadows

-# Hear my song, little bats!

-Our time will come #

-Let's sing it again!

-# Somewhere, there is a haven

-for all the sheep

-# Far, far away

-# There, you'll find sunshine

-and green grass

-# That is where we shall meet #

-We jumped over the alligators,

-I won at draughts and I made a swan.

-Well done, Mali!

-And now, I can read my book

-all on my own...

-..as long as Porchell reads it

-with me.

-You did well today, Porchell.

-You looked after your little sister.

-I'm proud of you.

-The secret is

-understanding youngsters.

-They're different from us.

-That's a fact.

-That's a fact.

-

-Oh, I see!

-What's wrong, Mali?

-Porchell doesn't do it like that.

-You see, with a bit of imagination

-and understanding...

-..you can do something

-everyone enjoys.

-Rather than sit here,

-playing on your own...

-..I'm sure the three of you can

-think of something to do together.

-I know! Let's make some popcorn.

-It's perfect for watching TV, Nia.

-And for playing Cosmic Tricks.

-And for playing Cosmic Tricks.

-

-And for listening to music.

-I'm hungry!

-That's not what I had in mind.

-Come to think of it, telling

-that tale made me feel hungry.

-Save some for me!
