00:00The
00:30The Flumps were having an ordinary day, except for Poodle, who was standing on his head.
00:43Everything is upside down when you stand on your head, said Poodle.
00:48It does look funny.
00:51Hello, Posey. Do you know you're upside down?
00:56No, I'm not, Poodle, said Posey.
00:59You are.
01:01Anyway, what are you doing?
01:04Exercising.
01:06Exercising what?
01:08Me, said Poodle, from my head to my toes.
01:13I think I'll have a go.
01:17You're right, she said.
01:20Everything is upside down.
01:23This exercise is good for practising upside downness, said Poodle.
01:29Hello, Perkin, said Posey.
01:33Hello, Perkin, said Poodle.
01:36Did you know you're upside down?
01:38No, I'm not, said Perkin.
01:41You two are.
01:42What are you doing?
01:45Exercising, said Posey.
01:47That's not a very good exercise.
01:50Exercises are supposed to keep you fit, stop you getting fat, make your muscles strong, things
01:56like that.
01:57Won't standing on my head make my head strong, said Poodle.
02:02You're more likely to get a hot head and cold feet.
02:06All the blood will rush to your head and there'll be none left in your feet to keep them warm.
02:12He's right, Poodle, said Posey.
02:14Come on down.
02:16Oh, said Poodle.
02:20Where have you gone?
02:22Poodle, said Perkin.
02:24You're back to front.
02:26Oh, there you are.
02:29Tell us a good exercise then, Perkin.
02:31Oh, um, I know.
02:35Touching toes is a good exercise.
02:38One, two, three, four.
02:42Come on.
02:44One, two, three, four.
02:48One, two, three, four.
02:53One, two, three, four.
02:58You're late, Poodle.
02:59That one's all right, said Posey.
03:03But I've got a better one.
03:05Wiggle your fingers, wiggle your toes.
03:09Wiggle your fingers, wiggle your toes.
03:12Wiggle your fingers, wiggle your toes.
03:15Wiggle your fingers, wiggle your...
03:19Oh, Poodle, you're all mixed up.
03:23Well, said Poodle, I bet you can't do mine.
03:27Look, knees and nose, knees and nose, knees and nose.
03:35Of course we can, said Perkin.
03:38Go on then.
03:40Knees and nose, knees and nose, knees and nose, knees and nose, and elbows.
03:46You're not very good, said Poodle.
03:53You're all mixed up.
03:55We wouldn't be if we'd known about the elbow, said Perkin.
03:58Oh, come on, said Posey.
04:01Let's do arm swinging.
04:05One and two and one and two and one and two and one and two.
04:14Oh, oh, careful, Perkin lad, said Grandfather.
04:18Mind what you're doing.
04:21Oh, hello, Grandfather, said Perkin.
04:23We're doing keep fit.
04:26Do you know any exercises?
04:29Exercises?
04:30Well, in my younger days, I did 20 knees bends every morning.
04:38Kept me as fit as a fiddle.
04:41How do you do sneeze bends, Grandfather?
04:45Sneeze bends?
04:46Oh, Poodle, it's knees bends.
04:51Can you show us how to do them, Grandfather?
04:54Ah, ah, here's Father Flump.
04:57He'll show you how to do knees bends.
05:00Knees bends, said Father.
05:03I'll do me best.
05:05Here goes.
05:07A one, two.
05:11A one, two.
05:14Ah, oops!
05:17Oh, dear, said Father.
05:19What are you doing on the floor, Father Flump, said Mother.
05:25Ah, knees bends, said Father.
05:29Hmm.
05:30Your knees must be in a funny place.
05:34That's how you do a knees bend.
05:37You go a one, two.
05:40A one, two.
05:41Ah, oops!
05:42It's ever so good.
05:45The falling over isn't part of the exercise, Poodle, said Father.
05:51Never mind, said Mother.
05:53It's a long time since I did any exercises, too.
05:57Do you remember, Father, when I used to do ballet?
06:02Now, how did the exercises go?
06:05Ah, yes.
06:09A one, two, three, hold, and together.
06:17A one, two, three, hold, and together.
06:25Was it the older days when you used to do that, Mother Flump?
06:30Not quite as long ago as all that, Poodle, said Mother, but long enough to make me think
06:36that a few keep-fit exercises would do us all good.
06:40Father Flump took out his old weightlifting things from the back of the cupboard.
06:46Do you know, Grandfather, I think I'll take up weightlifting again.
06:52I used to be good at this, you know.
06:54Hop down.
07:03Hop down.
07:07Hop down.
07:11Look at that.
07:13I haven't lost my touch.
07:16I must go and tell Mother.
07:17I always wanted to try this, thought Grandfather, flexing his muscles.
07:27Right.
07:32Hop.
07:33Oh.
07:34Oh.
07:35Uh.
07:36Hop.
07:40Grandfather, said Poodle, when you go hop, the weights stay on the ground.
07:46Shouldn't they go hop, too?
07:48Eh?
07:50Oh, oh, oh, I forgot you were there, Poodle.
07:53I'm only, uh, testing them, lad.
07:56What for?
07:58Um, uh, liftability, said Grandfather.
08:04Right, said Mother.
08:06Are we ready for our exercise time?
08:09Are you standing comfortably?
08:11Then we'll begin.
08:12To keep flumps, fit as fiddles.
08:17To keep flumps on their toes.
08:22Here's a fit flump exercise.
08:26And this is how it goes.
08:30Arm stretch, knees bend, wiggle your hips and touch your toes.
08:40Wiggle your hips and touch your toes.
08:49Arm stretch, knees bend, wriggle your hips and touch your nose.
08:53Wiggle your hips and touch your nose
08:57Repeat the exercise the same
09:06Then turn around and start again
09:09Arms stretch, knees bend
09:12Wiggle your hips and touch your toes
09:14Wiggle your hips and touch your toes
09:18Arms stretch, knees bend
09:19Wiggle your hips and touch your toes
09:21Wiggle your hips and touch your toes
09:25You'll go Perkin
09:27Wiggle your knees around your nose
09:30Bend your arms and stretch your toes
09:32Bend your arms and stretch your toes
09:35You'll go now Pootle
09:37These stretch arms bend
09:40Turn around and wiggle that bend
09:42Turn around and wiggle that bend
09:46You got it all wrong Perkin
09:48Arms wriggle round the bend
09:51Turn your nose and that's the end
09:53Arms wriggle round the bend
09:54Turn your nose
09:57Oh, that's the end
10:00Watching the others had made Grandfather so tired
10:04He decided to exercise some shut-eye and nodded off
10:08Oh, I'm puffed out, said Posey
10:16I'm double puffed out, said Perkin
10:19Well, said Pootle
10:21I'm double, extra, very puffed out
10:25I feel like a bramble jelly
10:29You mean wobbly all over?
10:33Yes, said Posey
10:36After all that exercise, said Father
10:42I feel like a nice, lazy afternoon
10:46That's a good idea, said Mother
10:50Just what we need after such a busy morning
10:53Inside, Grandfather was still exercising that shut-eye of his
11:07And busy dreaming about keeping fit
11:10Here we are, Pootle
11:14Chest expanders
11:16Just the thing for putting snap back into your muscles
11:21Oops
11:23Bit too much snap that
11:25Now for the weights
11:30Oh, no trouble when you're really fit
11:38And now, said Grandfather
11:42I think I'll go for the world record
11:47Can you beat that?
11:53Oh, I must say, said Grandfather as he woke up
12:01That was a weighty dream, if ever there was one
12:05I must go and tell the others about it
12:09Especially Pootle
12:10Well, I'll be flumped, said Grandfather
12:17When he saw all the others fast asleep
12:20Here I am, raring to go
12:23And there they are, flat out
12:26And they've only done a few exercises
12:28I don't know what the younger generation is coming to
12:34But I think I'll join them
12:36And see if I can't dream up a few more exercises
12:40You know, this keep fits
12:48A very, oh, tiring business
12:53And I think I'll be doing the next
12:59I don't know if I can dream up
