00:00Big cook, little cook, welcome to our cafe.
00:10Big cook, little cook, want you to come and play.
00:17Meeting all the friends we cook for, sharing stories, trips and fun.
00:24Big cook, little cook, we'll cook for everyone.
00:30There it is, brilliant.
00:34Oh, hello, welcome to our cafe, the best cafe in the world.
00:40The cafe isn't open yet, so I'm just going to sit down for five minutes and read my comic.
00:47Oh, lovely.
00:52There we go, put those there.
00:55Hello there, I'm just about to paint these chairs.
01:00Oh no, it's big cook Ben.
01:02If he sees I've fallen off my chair and broken it, he'll laugh his socks off.
01:15Hello Ben.
01:16Oh, hello Small.
01:17Small, I'm just about to paint these chairs, I've just brought them in.
01:21Did you say chairs, Ben?
01:23Because I could do with a new chair.
01:24Yeah, I've broken mine.
01:27Ooh.
01:28Is one of them small enough for me?
01:30Well, we've got this big one here, Small.
01:33And then we've got this medium-sized one here.
01:35And then we've got this little small one down here.
01:38Oh dear.
01:40Not even the smallest one's small enough for Little Cook Small.
01:44I'll just have to try and fix my own.
01:47Now, where do I start?
01:50Oh, no time to worry about that now, Small.
01:54We've got ourselves a customer.
01:56I'm on my way.
02:01Woo-hoo!
02:01Who's our customer today, Small?
02:13Well, well, fancy that.
02:16It's a great big bear.
02:18A great big brown bear.
02:20Just like the one in Goldilocks.
02:22And he's looking very hungry.
02:25Well, we'd better make him something to eat quick
02:27before he starts eating all the furniture.
02:29Calm down, Ben.
02:31Oh, so what could we make for a big bear?
02:35Oh, well, that is the big question.
02:38The very big question.
02:40What do bears eat?
02:42What would a bear eat?
02:49I'm a bear.
02:52Why don't you be bears too?
02:53Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

03:06eat but it hasn't helped I think it's time to look in my book we need a story
03:23to help us cook let's take a look in Little Cook's book Little Cook's
03:29adventures in the big world let me see this is all about Goldilocks and the
03:36three bears one day daddy bear was spooning the porridge into three bowls mmm
03:42said daddy bear this porridge would be so much tastier with a great big dollop of
03:47yummy honey so the three bears went off into the woods to find some little did
03:52they know that Goldilocks was walking in the woods too when Goldilocks saw their
03:57little house she couldn't resist peeking inside once inside she couldn't resist
04:03a little sit down first she tried daddy bears chair but it was too hard mummy
04:10bears chair was too soft then she tried baby bears chair and it was just right
04:16but it was too small for Goldilocks and she accidentally broke it in two
04:21Goldilocks was hungry she couldn't resist a taste of porridge daddy bears porridge was
04:28too hot mummy bear's porridge was too cold then she tried baby bears porridge and it was perfect so
04:36perfect that Goldilocks ate it all up Goldilocks was tired daddy bears bed was too hard mummy bears bed
04:46was too soft finally she tried baby bears bed and it was perfect so Goldilocks snuggled up and fell fast asleep
04:55oh dear soon the three bears would be home Goldilocks must wake up I had to help her
05:04the bears would be very sad if they found their house like this and they
05:09wouldn't be very pleased with Goldilocks so I woke her up she was very sorry she
05:17put fresh bowls of porridge on the table and tidied the beds the only problem was
05:22neither of us could repair the chair when the three bears returned from their walk there was
05:28just one giveaway baby bear's chair daddy bear mended the chair and they all sat down for a
05:35delicious bowl of porridge little cook to the rescue once again that was a great adventure
05:44well I hope Goldilocks learned her lesson she shouldn't have been using their things in the
05:49first place but I did feel a bit sorry for baby bear especially when he found out his little chair had
05:54been broken I know how he feels Ben oh I've forgotten about him come on small what are we going to make well I
06:06know bears like honey oh they love honey in fact I'm surprised they didn't have a dollop in their porridge

11:43Have you cleaned the surfaces?
11:51Yes. Have you washed your hands?
11:53Yes. All clean and ready to cook.
11:57Do you remember the ingredients to Buzzy Bees?
12:00You do.
12:00There was sesame seeds, four tablespoons, poppy seeds, two tablespoons, honey, three tablespoons, raisins, a few, and rice paper, four sheets.
12:14Whoopee! Let's get started.
12:16Small, can you cut out some bumblebee shapes from this rice paper for me?
12:21No sooner said than done, Ben.
12:24And while Small's doing that, I'm going to put the sesame seeds into a bowl.
12:28Here we are.
12:33Oh!
12:34Hi! Careful!
12:36Oops! Sorry, Small. Silly me.
12:40Now, to my sesame seeds, I'm going to add half of the honey.
12:46One big tablespoonful there.
12:48In it goes.
12:50And a little more.
12:52There we are.
12:53And then we give that a good stir.
12:58Mix it round.
13:00Mix it right round.
13:02Give it a good mix.
13:05Oh, that looks great.
13:06Now, once I've done that, I can move on to the poppy seeds.
13:10Here we are.
13:12In go the poppy seeds.
13:13Oh, that looks great.
13:20Nearly!
13:21Oh, I'm very sorry, Small.
13:23It's just so hard to talk and pour at the same time.
13:27Not to worry, Ben.
13:28I've got my umbrella.
13:29I'm going to add some honey to the poppy seeds.
13:37There we go.
13:38A little more.
13:41In it goes.
13:43That looks very nice.
13:45And now I'm going to give them a good stir.
13:48It looks very nice and sticky now.
13:51Here we go.
13:51Keep mixing it round.
13:54There.
13:55Perfect.
13:55How are those bumblebee shapes coming along, Small?
13:59Nearly ready.
14:05We'd better get a move on.
14:06He sounds really, really hungry.
14:08Small's made some rice paper shapes to make bees' bodies
14:11and some little wings here that I've stuck on with some honey.
14:14So now I'm going to put on some of the mixture
14:17into the centre of the bees' body.
14:20There we go.
14:21Oh, might use a little spoon here.
14:24There we are.
14:25Spread it round with the back of your spoon.
14:28Smooth it out nicely.
14:32There we go.
14:37And now for some of the poppy seeds.
14:40Now I'm going to make a little stripe down the middle here
14:42with the poppy seed.
14:47There we go.
14:48There's one.
14:48And there's another.
14:52The poppy seeds are a different colour
14:54which will make brilliant stripes for the bumblebee.
14:57And to finish off, I'm going to pop a little raisin on the end
15:01for the bumblebee's eye.
15:04There.
15:05Buzzy bees!
15:07Now I've set the oven to 180 degrees Celsius, gas mark four.
15:12Oven gloves on.
15:15And make sure you get your grown-up helper to do that bit for you
15:17because remember, the oven is hot, hot, hot.
15:21In the oven they go.
15:22There we are.
15:25Pop them in.
15:28There we go.
15:29Only five minutes and they'll be done.
15:33Only five minutes?
15:35Come on, small.
15:36Five minutes starting now.
15:37I'll set the timer.
15:42For five minutes.
15:44They're done.
15:53Let's have a look then.
15:54Oven off.
15:56Let's see.
15:57There we are.
16:00Buzzy bees.
16:01You can almost hear them buzzing.
16:04Now just leave them to cool down.
16:08Are they cool yet?
16:10Yes, they are.
16:11And we'd better give them four
16:13because bears can get really hungry.
16:16Here we go.
16:17Four buzzy bees coming through.
16:24There.
16:25So what do we do now?
16:26Can we play?
16:28Not yet.
16:29Time to clean and put away.
16:30Hooray!
16:38Wash, wipe, scrub and clean.
16:40Make the kitchen sparkle and gleam.
16:45My name's Ben.
16:47And my name's Paul.
16:49We've got the cleanest kitchen of all.
16:53Tidy all the bits and pop.
16:55The things that help us do our job.
16:57Ingredients we'll put away.
16:59Ready for use another day.
17:00Pots and pans will start to smell.
17:02If we don't wash them really well.
17:04And now it's clear.
17:05Let's all smile.
17:06We'll be finished in a little while.
17:08All around.
17:10Up and down.
17:11We've got the cleanest cafe in town.
17:14Here comes the plate.
17:22Oh, yes.
17:24You could say a totally bare plate.
17:27Oh, I think he liked them, Small.
17:31Don't you?
17:34Do you think he wants something?
17:37Go and see what he wants.
17:38No, you go and see.
17:40Well, you're the big one.
17:41You go and see.
17:43Oh.
17:45Oh.
17:45Oh, look, Small.
17:52It's your little chair and a note.
