00:00Look up, look down, look all around. Up in the air or on the ground. Come for a walk, come for a ride. There's so much to see, so come outside.
00:27We grow on a tree. We're something you eat. We're red, green or yellow and usually sweet. What are we called? We're apples.
00:47Pippin, you're always hungry. You know how to get round me, don't you? Here you are.
01:07Hello, me dears. My sister Edie's coming to tea today, so I'm making her favourite fruit salad.
01:17Now, I've put in some orange, peaches, strawberries, grapes, bananas. But there's something missing.
01:29Oh, apple. Edie won't eat fruit salad without apple in it. I'm sure I've got one.
01:37Oh, look at that. It's gone soft. It's starting to go mouldy. Can't eat that.
01:51We'll have to go and buy some. And while we're out, I'll show you where apples come from. Pippin, it's time to fly.
02:07Pippin, it's time to fly.
02:23Pippin, it's time to fly.
02:29Pippin, it's time to fly.
02:51There, that's where we're going.
03:14The apple orchard.
03:21This is the orchard, and it's full of trees, and every tree is growing apples.
03:46Come on.
03:54These apples are called Cox's Orange Pippins.
03:57Ha!
03:58Yes, Pippin, they've got the same name as you.
04:06The trees grow apples once every year, and these apples are ripe and ready for picking.
04:22The apples have to be picked very carefully, so that they don't get damaged.
04:31Oh!
04:39Thank you, Pippin.
04:40But we can't put this one in the bag.
04:43It's fallen off the tree, so it's got a bruise on it.
05:05This reminds me of the story of the apple tree and the hungry blackbird.
05:10Let me see if I can remember it.
05:15Once upon a time, there was a tree growing in a garden.
05:20It was winter time, and the tree was bare.
05:24One day, a hungry blackbird came to live in the garden.
05:29He flew onto a branch and said, what kind of grass worms?
05:35One day, buds appeared on the tree.
05:42The squirrels were pleased.
05:45They ate some of the buds and enjoyed them very much.
05:50Where are your apples, leaves?
05:53Where are your apples, then?
05:56Called the hungry blackbird, as it ate a beetle.
06:00Just you wait and see, said the apple tree.
06:05Then one day, pink and white blossom appeared on the tree.
06:11The bees came to drink nectar and take pollen from the flowers.
06:18Where are your apples, then?
06:20Called the hungry blackbird, as it swallowed a slug.
06:25Just you wait and see, said the apple tree.
06:30Then one day, small fruits began to grow on the tree.
06:35They grew bigger and bigger, until the tree was covered in apples.
06:44Some fell on the ground.
06:47There you are, said the apple tree.
06:50Now who's bare, boring and good for nothing?
06:55But the hungry blackbird didn't answer.
06:58He was too busy eating an apple.
07:01Oh, my God.
07:07Oh, my God.
07:21This is where the apples are sorted.
07:46Big ones go this way and come down here, and smaller ones go this way and come down here.
08:16And now the apples are off to market.
08:36May we come with you?
08:49Yes, Aunty Mobile. Jump in.
08:51Oh, thank you. Come on, Pippin.
08:55Come on, Pippin.
09:10Oh, that was a long journey.
09:35It's the middle of the night, and this is the market.
09:55Look at all the apples. Red ones.
10:02Big green ones.
10:10And yellow ones.
10:13Mmm, that smells good.
10:19Look at the apples, the beautiful apples.
10:23They're all sorts of colours. Delicious to eat.
10:27Here's one for cooking. It's big and it's green.
10:31They call it a Bramley. The biggest I've seen.
10:35Look at the apples, the beautiful apples.
10:39They're crunchy and munchy. They're sour and sweet.
10:44People who have shops come here to buy fruit and vegetables to sell in their shops.
10:51Here comes the shopkeeper now.
10:53Morning.
10:54Morning.
10:55Morning, Paul.
10:56How would you please box it?
10:57Morning.
10:5840 pence, first of the season, fresh in the small.
11:00They'd 36 of me, about right there, wouldn't they?
11:02I'd charge you 30 ages to get you started.
11:04Alright.
11:05I'll have this pallet then, but I'll take a box soon.
11:08Okay?
11:09I'll take this one.
11:11May we come and see your shop, please?
11:15Yes, of course. Come with me.
11:16Oh. Come on, Pippin.
11:18Off to the green grocer, that's where they go.
11:21And wait to be sold to a customer.
11:25So, a kilo of pippins, please, that's what I'll buy.
11:30Just ride for my salad.
11:32Thank you. Goodbye.
11:41You must always wash apples before you eat them.
11:56Did you know that?
11:58Can you see the seeds inside the apple?
12:13There.
12:17I think I'll plant these seeds later.
12:28I might grow my own apple tree.
12:32And I'll call the apples...
12:37Aunty Mabel's Pippins.
12:42Oh!
12:45Oh!
12:46Oh!
