0:00:49 > 0:00:52- A long, long time ago in Ireland...
0:00:53 > 0:00:57- ..there lived a storyteller - and his wife.
0:00:58 > 0:01:02- The storyteller told his stories - to an important man.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05- That man was the King of Ireland.
0:01:10 > 0:01:13- Every morning, - the storyteller awoke in his bed...
0:01:13 > 0:01:16- ..and he thought of a story - to tell the king.
0:01:19 > 0:01:20- Think of a story!
0:01:22 > 0:01:25- Once the storyteller - had thought of a story...
0:01:25 > 0:01:28- ..he'd tell it to his wife.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31- He kept practising - until it was perfect.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44- Then, at the castle - in the evening...
0:01:44 > 0:01:47- ..the storyteller - told the king his great story.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50- Stories helped the king sleep.
0:01:50 > 0:01:52- The king enjoyed the stories.
0:01:53 > 0:01:55- Some of the stories made him laugh.
0:01:59 > 0:02:01- Some of the stories made him cry.
0:02:04 > 0:02:08- Once he'd heard the story, - the king would feel sleepy.
0:02:09 > 0:02:10- He'd then nod off...
0:02:10 > 0:02:13- ..and sleep soundly - until the morning.
0:02:15 > 0:02:19- Listen! The king is snoring!
0:02:21 > 0:02:26- One morning, the storyteller woke up - and he tried to think of a story.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29- He tried to come up with a story...
0:02:29 > 0:02:33- ..but he couldn't come up with - a single idea.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37- He tried to use his imagination - and think hard...
0:02:38 > 0:02:42- ..but no matter how hard he tried, - his mind was blank.
0:02:42 > 0:02:44- Navy blue!
0:02:45 > 0:02:49- The king would be very angry - if he had no story for him.
0:02:49 > 0:02:52- They heard a knock on the door.
0:02:54 > 0:02:55- Go and answer the door!
0:02:56 > 0:02:58- Who was there?
0:02:58 > 0:03:00- Who was there?- - I wonder!
0:03:04 > 0:03:05- Who's that?
0:03:06 > 0:03:09- It was an old man - in a funny, pointy hat.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13- He had a long, white beard...
0:03:15 > 0:03:19- ..long, baggy trousers - and a crooked walking stick.
0:03:19 > 0:03:22- In his hand, there was a purple bag.
0:03:22 > 0:03:24- Isn't that odd?
0:03:25 > 0:03:28- The storyteller and his wife - stared at the man.
0:03:30 > 0:03:35- They were shocked when the man asked - the storyteller to play a game.
0:03:37 > 0:03:38- A game?
0:03:39 > 0:03:40- Yes - a game.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44- The old man said - it was an easy game.
0:03:44 > 0:03:49- He also said if the storyteller won, - he'd help him think of a story...

0:04:18 > 0:04:21- That's what - the storyteller thought, too.
0:04:22 > 0:04:26- If he won, he'd have a great story - to tell the king that night.
0:04:26 > 0:04:28- What if he lost?
