00:00Head balloon in a grumpy voice. You just watch what you're doing. You'll probably fly into an aeroplane or something.

00:09Sky's full of everything it shouldn't be these days. Planes, gliders, escape budgies. Get so a balloon can't go for a decent float.

00:18Don't be grumpy. Today's a day to be enjoyed. Let's get bigger so we can go higher.

00:27Race up to those chimney pots. I don't know. Always in a hurry.

00:35Nothing new to see when you get here. And the smoke from these chimneys is disgusting.

00:44Boy, where are you off to now? I'm going to float up among the clouds higher and higher. You can see for miles.

00:52Oh, that's right. Float off and leave me. Typical of young balloons today.

00:57Oi, you just watch yourself up there. Stop puffing yourself up like that.

01:03Look how big I am. You're getting too big. I've got to go higher.

01:09I'm warning you. You'll pop. Gah.

01:14I warned him. I told him. But would he listen?

01:20Blow a balloon up too high and you'll hear the air pop.

01:24Almost as bad as losing too much air. Then you'll hear it hiss down.

01:29Can't expect to keep afloat. Poor old red balloon.

01:49Blah. Blah. Blah. Blah. Blah.

02:19Hello. Good afternoon and welcome to the Grand Allsorts Blow Football Final, which is taking place this afternoon on the Table Top here.

02:46The peach is looking very smooth in very good form.

02:49And at the ends we have two goals, one at either end, made out of small cardboard boxes.

02:56We have tea towels all around the outside of the table to prevent the ball falling off.

03:00Each player plays with two straws. They blow air down the straws at this ping pong ball

03:06and attempt to get the ball into the goals.

03:09Well, we're looking forward to plenty of action, thrills and spills and loads of goals this afternoon.

03:13Without more ado, let's meet the two teams.

03:15And we have Virginia with the Puff Puff Panthers.

03:19And Bonzo with the Windy Wanderers.

03:23Oh my word, they're looking in fine form.

03:25And as the teams make their way down through the tunnel, the crowd greets them with a tremendous reception there.

03:31They're both looking fit and well. Shaking hands now.

03:34A good sportsman-like gesture. Excellent.

03:37Well now, the referee is reaching in his pocket for the coin.

03:40Tossing up. And Bonzo?

03:42On the head.

03:43Hence it is. So Bonzo with the Windy Wanderers will blow off.

03:48After the whistle.

03:54Oh, there's a tussle going on in midfield.

03:56The tea towels giving the ball.

04:00Oh, it hit the woodwork.

04:02Very close.

04:05Oh, off she goes.

04:10And it's in the net.

04:12That was a goal by the Puff Puff Panthers.

04:15Excellent goal there.

04:17So, it's Bonzo's kick-off after the whistle.

04:24Oh my word, did you see that?

04:27An equalizer straight from the kick-off. One goal apiece.

04:31And so it's now Virginia with the Puff Puff Panthers to blow off.

04:36Ah, oh now, that's an interesting move.

04:42And the two teams, they still seem to have plenty of puff left in them.

04:46And, oh, it's hit the woodwork, my word.

04:50Oh, and the Puff Puff Panthers stamping their authority all over the pitch.

04:56And it's in the goal. Well done, Virginia.

04:59So, that's 2-1 to the Puff Puff Panthers.

05:02Half time?

05:03Just time to blow off once more.

05:07Off you go then, Bonzo.

05:09Yes!

05:10So, we very quickly got to try and play for the winner.

05:14Off we go with the Virginia playoff.

05:17Oh, it hasn't quite gone in, actually.

05:21It's there now, though. It's there. That was the winner.

05:24My word, what an exciting game.

05:26Virginia with the Puff Puff Panthers was the winner.

05:29Three goals to two.

05:30Virginia, do you have any after-match comments?

05:33No, she's out of puff.

05:35How about Bonzo?

05:37And he's pretty puffed out as well.

05:39Well, it's me, to you, signing off after this grand all-sorts final.

05:44Plenty of action, plenty of thrills and spills,

05:46and the Puff Puff Panthers just straightening in.

05:48Three goals to two.

05:50Goodbye.
