00:00Look up, look down, look all around, up in the air or on the ground.
00:14Come for a walk, come for a ride, there's so much to see, so come outside.
00:24When you use the bath, or when you use the sink, pull the plug out, let the dirty water go.
00:38When you use the lavatory, it all flows down the pan.
00:43What am I describing? Do you know?
00:47It's sewage.
00:54Quack, quack, quack.
01:17Hello, my dears. It's only us.
01:19I'm just buying some jokes and tricks for a children's party.
01:38Do you think they'll like this one?
01:41It isn't real.
01:45It's pretend.
01:46There you are, auntie.
01:50Thank you very much.
01:53Bye.
01:54Bye-bye. Do call again.
01:56Come along, Pippin.
02:04Hello.
02:05Hello, auntie Mabel.
02:07What's going on here?
02:08They're just checking some pipes underground.
02:11Oh.
02:11Bye-bye.
02:30Pippin.
02:33Did you do that?
02:36I'll clean it up.
02:37Never mind.
02:45Never mind.
02:46There you are, Pippin.
03:16This dirty water is going to the same place as Pippin's poo.
03:31I can show you where it goes.
03:33Come outside.
03:38Hello again.
03:39Hello.
03:40Could I go down and have a look?
03:42It's quite dangerous, but if you really want to go, we'll take you down.
03:45I'd like to.
03:46These clothes will protect me from germs and diseases.
03:58You can't come down, Pippin.
04:00You have to stay here.
04:04This is my safety harness.
04:11It's a long way down.
04:12Oh, look.
04:26We're inside a huge pipe.
04:29It's called a sewer.
04:36This is where all the dirty water and the poo go.
04:40They flow along inside the pipe and get all mixed up together, and the mixture is called sewage.
04:50Let's go.
05:20I thought it would be very smelly down here, but it isn't.
05:40If there was a rainstorm, the water could be this deep.
05:50That's someone's bathwater.
05:55The sewage is going off to a place where it's cleaned.
05:59Let's go with it and see what happens.
06:05I don't think we'll go that way.
06:08Right, Pippin, it's time to fly.
06:20Are you looking for your lead, Pippin?
06:36You've got it on, silly girl.
06:52I don't think we'll go that way.
07:10No, it's time to fly.
07:13Run by, go.
07:19I don't have to worry.
07:19I don't have to worry.
07:29I don't have to worry.
07:30I don't have to worry about it.
07:32monks
07:33Like a man with fishes
07:35See all those houses down there, Pippin?
07:48They all have pipes underground, taking the sewage away.
07:55There it is, Pippin!
07:58The sewage works!
08:05Do you remember the big tunnel I was in, where all the messy, yucky sewage flows along?
08:25Well, this is where it ends up.
08:30And it comes here to be cleaned.
08:33Here it comes.
08:35All the rubbish, the bits of cloth and so on, are taken out by this machine.
09:01Then the sewage goes into these tanks, where the solid bits sink to the bottom.
09:20Can you see your poo in there, Pippin?
09:24The water moves on to these tanks, where it's cleaned.
09:32And it takes hours and hours.
09:42The water's lost its brown colour now.
09:45And when it's clean, guess where it goes.
09:53The clean water flows into the river.
09:59But what about the poo?
10:01Come with me.
10:02And here it is.
10:06It's called sludge.
10:15It's dried and piled up here.
10:19It's called sludge cake.
10:22No, definitely not the sort of cake you would eat.
10:26You never guess where those lurries are taking it.
10:35It's taken to fields, where it's spread on the ground.
10:46And it helps the plants to grow.
10:48So when you flush the lavatory, the waste goes round and round.
10:56Then flows away along the drain to a sewer underground.
11:01Dirty water, solid sludge, all mixed up with the rain.
11:07It's waste that's being cleaned and then some of it's gonna be used again.
11:14It flows along a tunnel and it all ends up out here.
11:20The water moves through different tanks till it's clean and crystal clear.
11:25All the dirty water that went pouring down the drain is clean enough for rivers then.
11:33Some of it's gonna be used again.
11:38Solid bits of waste that we saw tumbling down the drain are spread on fields to feed the plants.
11:47And that's how some of it's used again.
11:50And now you know all about sewage.
11:57And I'm ready for a nice cup of tea.
12:03Now where was I?
12:05Ah, yes.
12:07Tricks for the children's party.
12:10Oh, what have we got here?
12:13Oh.
12:15Look.
12:17The pretend poo.
12:18I'm sure I can trick somebody into thinking this is real.
12:21Oh, my God.
12:51Pippin, my goodness me, what have you done on my floor?
12:59You naughty girl.
13:14It's the pretend one.
13:18You tricked me.
13:21Pippin.
13:32Pippin.
13:34Pippin.
13:36Pippin.
13:38Pippin.
13:41Pippin.
13:43Pippin.
13:45Pippin.
13:47Pippin.
13:49Pippin.
