00:00You're not the shrinking cat, Grandpa!
00:06Catch me if you can!
00:10Grandpa!
00:18No! Be careful!
00:25Grandpa, stop!
00:30No!
00:36No!
00:44Grandpa in my pocket!
00:48Thank you, Captain Dumbledwit, said the Fringle-Frangle Lump.
00:53You have saved the...
00:56No!
00:58Bless you, Grandpa!
01:01Grandpa couldn't stop sneezing.
01:03He always gets the sneezes at this time of year,
01:06when the cherry blossoms on the trees.
01:09Bless you again, Grandpa!
01:11Miss Smiley's asked me to pop into her cafe.
01:13She's had to go away, so she's left Mr. Whoops in charge.
01:16Now, where did I put my bag?
01:19Mr. Whoops in charge of the cafe?
01:21That's the worst idea I've ever heard!
01:24I think Grandpa was right.
01:26You see...
01:28Mr. Whoops is called Mr. Whoops
01:30because he's always having little accidents.
01:36He drops things.
01:41He falls over things.
01:46He falls off things.
01:50He even trips over his own feet.
01:54Yes, with Mr. Whoops in charge,
01:56there was bound to be chaos in the cafe.
02:02Now, where did I put it?
02:04Can we come with you? I really fancy an ice cream...
02:09Bless you!
02:10Bless you!
02:11Jason can come, but I don't think you should, Grandpa.
02:14There's so much blossom about.
02:16You'll sneeze even more if you go outside.
02:18But Mum!
02:19I've got to come to the cafe.
02:21Sneezes or no sneezes.
02:23Mr. Whoops will need my help.
02:25Not a shrinking cup, Grandpa!
02:29Catch me if you can!
02:33You know, when Grandpa shrinks,
02:35he can get up to all kinds of magical things.
02:45He can get into my car and make it go.
02:54He can fly off in my plane.
03:04Where's Grandpa?
03:05Gone for a little lie-down, I expect.
03:07That's what everyone thinks when Grandpa goes missing.
03:10I'm the only one who knows about his shrinking cup.
03:15There you are.
03:16Thank you, Mr. Whoops.
03:18I'm the only one who knows about his shrinking cup.
03:23There you are.
03:24Come along, Jason.
03:26There was nothing for it. I had to go.
03:30So off we went in Campo to Miss Smiley's cafe.
03:34Soon Mum said...
03:36I'm glad Grandpa decided not to go out.
03:39It was very sensible of him.
03:41And I thought...
03:43Grandpa? Sensible?
03:45If only she knew.
03:49Grandpa's house
04:00Miss Smiley's cafe at the end of the pier
04:02is the best cafe in the world.
04:05And today Mr. Whips had added his own special touch.
04:09Cherry blossom.
04:10On the tables, on the counter, everywhere.
04:15Mr. Whoops's ice cream sundaes
04:17were almost as good as Miss Smiley's.
04:19Just as well Grandpa didn't come.
04:21Mr. Whoops has brought the outside inside today.
04:24Grandpa would never have stopped sneezing.
04:27Uh... uh...
04:28And that was Grandpa sneezing right now.
04:31Of course, I had to pretend it was me.
04:33Ah-ah-ah-choo!
04:35Bless you, Jason.
04:37More strawberry sauce, anybody?
04:39Mr. Whoops had had an accident with the strawberry sauce.
04:42Yes, please.
04:44Now was my chance to talk to Grandpa.
04:46Grandpa, you nearly gave yourself away just then.
04:49I know. I'm sorry.
04:51It's all this cherry blossom.
04:53Why don't you just go home?
04:54Mr. Whoops is doing fine.
04:56He doesn't need any help.
04:57He will in a minute.
04:58Guess who I saw on the pier making her way here?
05:04Lady Prigsbottom!
05:06It's your ladyship to you.
05:07Small boy with an ice cream moustache.
05:11This was bad news for Mr. Whoops.
05:14Everyone in Sunny Sands knows Lady Prigsbottom.
05:17She's famous for having a very big house,
05:19a very smart car,
05:21and a very straight face.
05:23What's all this rubbish?
05:25This is my table.
05:26Miss Smiley always leaves this free for me.
05:28Clear it. And make it snappy.
05:30Yes, your ladyship.
05:32Of course, your ladyship.
05:35Lady Prigsbottom was surprised to see Mr. Whoops covered in strawberry sauce.
05:39Oh!
05:39Ah!
05:41Somebody get a cloth!
05:44See what I mean?
05:45Mr. Whoops is going to need all the help he can get.
05:49Mum tried to calm Lady Prigsbottom down,
05:51but it wasn't working.
05:53I'm sure it'll leave a very stubborn stain.
05:55Sorry about that, your ladyship.
05:57What can I get you?
05:59I'll have a paradise pineapple pizza,
06:02a scrumptious chocolate cheesecake,
06:04a big banana shake,
06:06and make it snappy.
06:08Get off!
06:14There's only one way to help Mr. Whoops,
06:16and that's to put a smile on Lady Prigsbottom's face,
06:19and make her see the funny side of things.
06:22You'll never do it, Grandpa.
06:23Oh, won't I?
06:25I have a brilliant plan.
06:27But there was no time to find out what Grandpa's brilliant plan was.
06:31Mum was coming back.
06:32I've got to hide you, Grandpa.
06:39Ah! Ah! Ah-choo!
06:41Bless you.
06:42Don't tell me you've got the sneezes, too.
06:44Let's get this blossom out of your way.
06:46This was a disaster.
06:48Mum was really close to Grandpa.
06:50One more sneeze and she'd find him.
06:55The good news was Grandpa had managed to escape.
06:58The bad news was that he was going to carry out his brilliant plan.
07:02You, waiter, with the red dribble down your foot,
07:06I want a large leafy salad to go with that pizza,
07:08and make it snappy.
07:09As snappy as a crocodile, your ladyship.
07:11If I wanted to see a clown, I'd have gone to the circus.
07:20Mr. Wips was working as fast as he could.
07:22And he wasn't the only one.
07:24Grandpa had made a smiley face on the pizza.
07:31Look! There's a smiley face on this pizza.
07:35I'm sure it wasn't there before.
07:37Everything smiles in Miss Smiley's cafe.
07:39Even the food.
07:41With a bit of luck, he'll make Lady Prigsbottom smile, too.
07:47But Lady Prigsbottom was in no mood for smiling.
07:51I've never had such appalling service.
07:54We must all complain to Miss Smiley when she gets back.
07:57We must write to Mr. Crump Grumble,
08:00the taste tester from the town hall.
08:11Achoo!
08:12All the sneezing made Mr. Wips jump,
08:15and sent the pizza flying.
08:18Oh, no. I'm so sorry.
08:20Get your sticky fingers out of my expensive hairdo, too.
08:24I will bypass the first course,
08:26and go straight for the dessert.
08:28Assuming you can keep it on the plate.
08:30Scrumptious chocolate cheesecake with extra cream,
08:33a big banana shake, and...
08:35Make it snappy.
08:36Yes, of course, your bottomship.
08:38Ladyship.
08:41It's not your fault, Jason.
08:43It's all this cherry blossom.
08:44You can't help it if it makes you sneeze.
08:47I think we should go home.
08:49No, we can't.
08:50I haven't finished my ice cream sundae.
08:53There was no way I could leave Grandpa now.
08:56I was sure he was working on another brilliant plan.
08:59And I was right.
09:01He'd made a smiley face on the chocolate cheesecake.
09:09Would you believe it?
09:10Another smiley face.
09:12If this doesn't make Lady Prigsbottom smile,
09:15nothing will.
09:16Do go carefully, Mr. Wips.
09:18So Mr. Wips took the smiley chocolate cheesecake with extra cream
09:22to show Lady Prigsbottom.
09:24I was hoping this time Grandpa wouldn't sneeze,
09:27and make Mr. Wips jump,
09:29but...
09:30Ah!
09:43Whoops!
09:52What's so funny?
09:53I am.
09:55Look at me.
09:56Strawberry sauce.
09:57Cream.
09:58Chocolate.
09:59I look like an ice cream sundae.
10:03Yes, I suppose you do.
10:09Oh, it's too dirty.
10:12Oh, and look at me.
10:15I look like a small boy's birthday tea.
10:24Grandpa had done it.
10:30While everyone was laughing,
10:32Grandpa sneaked down to the cafe,
10:34got into my toy plane,
10:36and flew off.
10:46He arrived back home just before me and Mum.
10:49Took off his shrinking cap,
10:50and went back to his normal size.
10:52Just in time, too.
10:55Brilliant plan, Grandpa.
10:56I couldn't have managed without you.
10:58I couldn't have managed without your ha-ha-ha-chewing.
11:01That's what I call teamwork.
11:04Yes, Grandpa.
11:05Teamwork.
11:07Such a good job you didn't come with us, Grandpa.
11:09The cafe was full of cherry blossom.
11:11Poor Jason couldn't stop sneezing.
11:13Really?
11:14I'll go and get some tea, Grandpa.
11:15Good, and make it snappy.
11:18That's what Lady Prigsbottom kept saying.
11:20How odd!
11:28To be continued...
