0:01:09 > 0:01:10- Uncle Ffyrgi!
0:01:10 > 0:01:13- Uncle Ffyrgi!- - Dear me, look how much you've grown!
0:01:13 > 0:01:15- Are you staying for very long?
0:01:15 > 0:01:17- Did you bring us a present?
0:01:17 > 0:01:21- Enough, children. - Let Uncle Ffyrgi catch his breath.
0:01:21 > 0:01:25- Dear Ceri, - it's wonderful to see you.
0:01:25 > 0:01:28- I'm so glad you came, Uncle Ffyrgi.
0:01:28 > 0:01:32- Look at that. - Is that Tad-cu's birthday present?
0:01:32 > 0:01:37- I wouldn't have come all the way - from Ireland empty-handed.
0:01:37 > 0:01:43- Don't talk nonsense, Ffyrgi. - Having you here is the best present.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46- OK then, - I'll take it back, Porchell.
0:01:46 > 0:01:48- No, no, you won't.
0:01:48 > 0:01:52- Come on, children, - let's go and see what it is.
0:01:57 > 0:01:58- Open it!
0:01:58 > 0:02:00- Open it!- - Hurry up!
0:02:03 > 0:02:05- Goodness me!
0:02:06 > 0:02:09- It came all the way - from Tyddyn Llan.
0:02:09 > 0:02:12- Mali, Dwynwen and I - want you to have it.
0:02:13 > 0:02:17- Oh, it's perfect, Ffyrgi.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19- Is that it, Tad-cu.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21- For real?
0:02:21 > 0:02:23- Yes, indeed, children.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28- The Tyddyn Llan Rocket.
0:02:29 > 0:02:31- What fun!
0:02:31 > 0:02:34- Is this - what you and your friends rode in?
0:02:34 > 0:02:39- We didn't only ride in it, - we flew in it too.
0:02:40 > 0:02:44- The Tyddyn Llan Rocket - was a spaceship...
0:02:44 > 0:02:48- ..a supersonic jet - and Ireland's best racing car.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58- Goodness me! - Why did you have to go and do that?
0:02:58 > 0:03:01- Why, Ffyrgi, I only...
0:03:05 > 0:03:09- Well, who would have thought it, - Ffyrgi!
0:03:12 > 0:03:16- So what are you boys - going to do with this mess?
0:03:17 > 0:03:19- What do you mean by mess?
0:03:19 > 0:03:23- Are you referring to - the Tyddyn Llan Rocket?
0:03:23 > 0:03:25- We're going to - put it back together.
0:03:26 > 0:03:28- Can we help?
0:03:30 > 0:03:32- I'll go and fetch the tools.
0:03:35 > 0:03:38- Goodness me, look at this, Ffyrgi.
0:03:38 > 0:03:41- My father gave us this bucket...
0:03:41 > 0:03:44- ..after Matholwch the mule - kicked a hole in it.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46- It was a blessing.
0:03:50 > 0:03:55- Ffyrgi, do you remember when your - father made us this steering wheel?
0:03:55 > 0:03:58- Don Toro had hands like shovels.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01- HE SINGS
0:04:01 > 0:04:03- What are you singing?
0:04:03 > 0:04:05- What are you singing?- - Is that a song about the rocket?
0:04:05 > 0:04:08- Oh, no, - don't encourage him, children.
0:04:08 > 0:04:12- Once he starts, - there'll be no stopping him.
0:04:15 > 0:04:16- Here he goes.
0:04:17 > 0:04:20- # We're going to make a rocket - to take us into space #
0:04:22 > 0:04:26- I made up that song - when we decided to build the rocket.
0:04:26 > 0:04:28- Do you still remember it?
0:04:28 > 0:04:31- Do you still remember it?- - Ffyrgi remembers every song.
0:04:31 > 0:04:33- And there are lots to remember too.
0:04:34 > 0:04:37- I remember them - because every one tells a story.
0:04:38 > 0:04:39- Sing your story.
0:04:39 > 0:04:41- Sing your story.- - Please.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43- Yes, go on, Ffyrgi.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46- Very well then.
0:04:46 > 0:04:51- But before I sing the song, - here's a little background for you.
0:04:51 > 0:04:55- It all started one day when - we were playing Monsters From Space.
0:05:03 > 0:05:06- Your grandfather and I - were heroic spacemen...
0:05:06 > 0:05:10- ..escaping the clutches - of the Moon Monster.
0:05:10 > 0:05:14- Captain Porchell, - the Moon Monster is chasing us!
0:05:20 > 0:05:23- Oh, no, it's the milky way! - We're doomed!
0:05:27 > 0:05:31- Hah, I've caught you. - Come with me quietly.
0:05:31 > 0:05:35- Do as I say or I will turn you - into ice with my breath!
0:05:35 > 0:05:38- You'll never take us alive.
0:05:38 > 0:05:43- Very well, then I'll - have to capture you in ice.
0:05:44 > 0:05:48- We have to get out of here. - Captain Ffyrgi, fire up the rocket.
0:05:49 > 0:05:51- Aye-aye, Captain Porchell.
0:05:59 > 0:06:02- You'll never escape, Earthlings.
0:06:02 > 0:06:06- Of course we will. - We're in a rocket.
0:06:06 > 0:06:09- The fastest rocket known to man.
0:06:13 > 0:06:14- Ow!
0:06:14 > 0:06:17- Ow!- - Captain Porchell, why did you stop?
0:06:17 > 0:06:19- The monster will freeze us both.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21- Here I come.
0:06:25 > 0:06:29- You're welcome to freeze us, - Monster, we deserve it.
0:06:29 > 0:06:34- What? You can't let me freeze you, - you're heroic spacemen, you fool!
0:06:35 > 0:06:40- What kind of heroic spacemen are we - if Mr Gafr Eto can overtake us?
0:06:41 > 0:06:45- We could pretend - to go fast, Porchell. Come on.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47- No, we can't.
0:06:47 > 0:06:51- But we could build - a real-life rocket.
0:06:51 > 0:06:53- A real-life rocket?
0:06:53 > 0:06:56- Don't be silly, - we can't build a rocket.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59- Every spaceman builds a rocket.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01- It's common knowledge.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05- Well then, - how about stopping chatting...
0:07:05 > 0:07:08- ..and start building a rocket?
0:07:08 > 0:07:11- # Oh, we're going to build a rocket
0:07:12 > 0:07:13- # To take us into space
0:07:14 > 0:07:18- # Building it from start to finish - before the weather turns cold
0:07:26 > 0:07:28- # In order to build the rocket
0:07:28 > 0:07:32- # We'll need a wooden crate - and a bucket for its nose
0:07:32 > 0:07:34- # As we fly to outer space
0:07:34 > 0:07:37- # Papa will make the steering wheel - to guide our rocket into space
0:07:38 > 0:07:42- # And the wings made by Dwynwen
0:07:42 > 0:07:47- # Will help sustain us on our way
0:07:47 > 0:07:50- # La-la-la-la-la-la-la, - la-la-la-la-la-la #
0:07:51 > 0:07:54- Nice melody but not very inspiring.
0:07:59 > 0:08:03- But if you're a professional - on the other hand...
0:08:04 > 0:08:08- # We've built our own rocket - to travel into space
0:08:08 > 0:08:14- # Lift-off in the morning - and touchdown in the afternoon #
0:08:16 > 0:08:17- Excellent!
0:08:18 > 0:08:21- And that's how - the Tyddyn Llan Rocket was built.
0:08:21 > 0:08:24- Alright, everybody, - here are the tools.
0:08:25 > 0:08:29- Great, but I wonder if we'll manage - to put it back together again?
0:08:30 > 0:08:32- Let's see to the wheels first.
0:08:32 > 0:08:37- No, the wheels - are the last thing to add, Dafydd.
0:08:37 > 0:08:41- Yes, we almost - never added wheels at all.
0:08:41 > 0:08:43- Do you remember, Porchell?
0:08:43 > 0:08:46- Of course I do.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49- What do you mean, Uncle?
0:08:49 > 0:08:52- Tad-cu wanted the rocket - to go very fast...
0:08:52 > 0:08:55- ..so he thought of ways to do so.
0:08:55 > 0:08:59- But none of his ideas - involved wheels and none worked.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04- That's true.
0:09:04 > 0:09:07- First he tried to make it fly.
0:09:07 > 0:09:09- Really? Tad-cu!
0:09:09 > 0:09:13- He's right. If it had worked, - it would have been incredible.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18- Tad-cu thought - the best way to make it fly...
0:09:19 > 0:09:22- ..was by henpower.
0:09:25 > 0:09:28- Alright, hens, off you go.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30- Take us to the moon!
0:09:31 > 0:09:34- Shall I throw the chickenfeed now, - Porchell?
0:09:34 > 0:09:36- Throw it into the air.
0:09:36 > 0:09:40- Chick-chick-chick-chick-chicken!
0:09:42 > 0:09:44- They're doing it! They're flying!
0:10:22 > 0:10:24- That worked a treat.
0:10:29 > 0:10:33- Getting the hens to fly the rocket - didn't work that well...
0:10:33 > 0:10:35- ..so Tad-cu said...
0:10:36 > 0:10:38- We'll need someone to push it.
0:10:38 > 0:10:42- If I may be so bold, - who would that person be?
0:10:42 > 0:10:45- Was it you, Uncle Ffyrgi?
0:10:45 > 0:10:49- That would've made sense, Dafydd, - but oh, no...
0:10:50 > 0:10:54- ..Tad-cu thought - the best rocket pusher would be...
0:10:54 > 0:10:56- ..the old and angry goat.
0:10:57 > 0:10:58- That doesn't sound like a good idea.
0:10:58 > 0:11:00- That doesn't sound like a good idea.- - It wasn't.
0:11:02 > 0:11:05- Do you think this is going to work?
0:11:05 > 0:11:09- Yes, because that goat - can hurl things powerfully.
0:11:09 > 0:11:14- All we have to do is make him - angry enough to hurl us into space.
0:11:14 > 0:11:17- I shouldn't think - that's a problem, Porchell.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26- Wahoo! It worked!
0:11:34 > 0:11:38- So, you see, - Tad-cu managed to get us to fly.
0:11:38 > 0:11:43- Unfortunately, the landing - was uncomfortable to say the least.
0:11:45 > 0:11:47- And the wheels? - When did you add them?
0:11:48 > 0:11:50- We'll get to that in a moment, - Dafydd.
0:11:51 > 0:11:54- What's that paper - stuck to the wheel?
0:11:54 > 0:11:57- Huh? It's a letter, Tad-cu.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59- It's addressed to you.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04- Well, now, look at this.
0:12:05 > 0:12:07- It's from your Auntie Dwynwen.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11- What does it say, Tad-cu? - What does it say?
0:12:11 > 0:12:14- Hey, hold on a moment. - Let me open it first.
0:12:17 > 0:12:20- "Happy birthday, Porchell.
0:12:21 > 0:12:25- "I left this letter - where you would find it.
0:12:25 > 0:12:29- "The story about - how the rocket got its wheels."
0:12:29 > 0:12:33- Whoa, are you serious? - Come on, read it out.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36- Come on, Porchell, read the story.
0:12:37 > 0:12:39- Very well then.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43- "Getting the Tyddyn Llan Rocket - to move...
0:12:43 > 0:12:47- "..was the most difficult thing - we had to face...
0:12:47 > 0:12:49- "..in our young lives."
0:12:49 > 0:12:52- Dwynwen always was - a little melodramatic.
0:12:55 > 0:12:58- "Then one of us - came up with the excellent idea...
0:12:59 > 0:13:02- "..of attaching wheels - to the wild chariot."
0:13:02 > 0:13:04- That was down to me, of course.
0:13:04 > 0:13:07- But wheels weren't easy to find.
0:13:07 > 0:13:09- We had to use our imagination.
0:13:09 > 0:13:13- First we tried to add - bicycle wheels to the cart.
0:13:20 > 0:13:24- Then we tried to add wheels - on the side.
0:13:28 > 0:13:34- I came up with the idea of - using four wheels instead of two...
0:13:34 > 0:13:37- ..but someone else, - namely Porchell...
0:13:37 > 0:13:40- ..decided to use two other wheels.
0:14:32 > 0:14:35- What we needed were four wheels...
0:14:35 > 0:14:37- ..of the same size.
0:14:41 > 0:14:47- Porchell wasted no time - in claiming Mali's pram wheels.
0:14:47 > 0:14:50- But Mali had other plans.
0:14:51 > 0:14:54- That's my pram. - I need it for Marged.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56- But we need wheels for our rocket.
0:14:57 > 0:15:00- Give me back my pram - or I'll tell Mami.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02- Wait, Mali!
0:15:02 > 0:15:05- Porchell tried to - strike a deal with Mali.
0:15:05 > 0:15:09- I'll give you this tasty piece - of mint chewing gum...
0:15:09 > 0:15:12- ..for those dirty old pram wheels.
0:15:12 > 0:15:14- Gum?
0:15:14 > 0:15:17- Gum?- - Wait a minute, Porchell.
0:15:17 > 0:15:21- If you're exchanging something - with Mali, it has to be fair.
0:15:22 > 0:15:24- Huh? Well, er...
0:15:25 > 0:15:29- Alright, what about - one of my red marbles too?
0:15:30 > 0:15:32- Ooh!
0:15:34 > 0:15:36- No.
0:15:42 > 0:15:44- You can have my comic book.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51- My half-pack of cards?
0:15:55 > 0:15:57- This unique stone?
0:15:59 > 0:16:01- My favourite hurling stick?
0:16:04 > 0:16:06- By the time a deal was struck...
0:16:06 > 0:16:11- ..Mali had a huge pile of - Porchell's most precious belongings.
0:16:15 > 0:16:19- But things - still weren't very fair until...
0:16:20 > 0:16:24- Porchell, Marged is very fond - of going for walks in the pram.
0:16:25 > 0:16:28- Marged can go for walks - in the rocket any time.
0:16:29 > 0:16:30- She can?
0:16:30 > 0:16:32- She can?- - She can?
0:16:32 > 0:16:35- Well, er, I'm sure she can.
0:16:35 > 0:16:38- Every now and then. Occasionally.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41- Alright.
0:16:44 > 0:16:50- Don't forget that half the rocket - still belongs to your little sister.
0:16:51 > 0:16:56- "With warmest birthday wishes - from your dear friend, Dwynwen."
0:16:57 > 0:16:58- We've finished it.
0:16:58 > 0:17:01- We've finished it.- - The Tyddyn Llan Rocket is ready.
0:17:01 > 0:17:05- Goodness me, look at that!
0:17:05 > 0:17:07- It looks perfect to me.
0:17:08 > 0:17:12- I think the name - needs to be repainted.
0:17:12 > 0:17:14- The Tyddyn Llan Rocket.
0:17:14 > 0:17:17- Why did you call it that - in the first place?
0:17:18 > 0:17:21- The first thing we did - when the rocket was finished...
0:17:22 > 0:17:25- ..was to try and launch it - on its first mission.
0:17:30 > 0:17:33- Three, two, one, lift-off!
0:17:35 > 0:17:39- Vice Captain Ffyrgi, - we're not moving. Check the engine.
0:17:39 > 0:17:43- Very well, Vice Captain Porchell.
0:17:43 > 0:17:45- We need more power.
0:17:45 > 0:17:49- I'm trying, boys! - I'm really trying, boys!
0:17:57 > 0:17:59- We need a stronger engine.
0:18:01 > 0:18:05- So Ffyrgi volunteered to produce - the power behind the machine.
0:18:07 > 0:18:11- Hold on a moment. I don't remember - volunteering, Porchell.
0:18:12 > 0:18:16- What if I said you answered the call - when we were in need?
0:18:16 > 0:18:18- You could persuade me - to do anything.
0:18:19 > 0:18:22- Carry on. So Ffyrgi - volunteered to be an engine.
0:18:23 > 0:18:26- Yes, he did.
0:18:26 > 0:18:30- But this time I suggested - that we start on top of the hill...
0:18:30 > 0:18:32- ..instead of at the bottom.
0:18:32 > 0:18:35- It was a good suggestion.
0:18:35 > 0:18:38- Five, four...
0:18:38 > 0:18:41- ..three, two...
0:18:41 > 0:18:43- Oh, dear!
0:18:43 > 0:18:44- Oh, dear!- - ..one, lift-off!
0:18:49 > 0:18:51- Wahoo!
0:18:58 > 0:19:02- With Ffyrgi pushing, - we went as fast as lightning.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04- Out of the way, hens!
0:19:05 > 0:19:08- We were in safe hands - because I was at the wheel.
0:19:09 > 0:19:11- To the left! To the left!
0:19:14 > 0:19:16- Well done, Porchell!
0:19:17 > 0:19:20- Watch out - for the hole in the ground!
0:19:21 > 0:19:23- I've already seen it! Wahey!
0:19:26 > 0:19:29- It's heading straight for us!
0:19:30 > 0:19:32- Hurry, boys! Contingency plan 37!
0:19:41 > 0:19:43- Good work, lads.
0:19:43 > 0:19:47- But plan 37 is run away.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51- Excuse me!
0:19:52 > 0:19:55- Is it my turn to play in the rocket?
