00:00Big cook, little cook, welcome to our cafe.
00:10Big cook, little cook, want you to come and play.
00:18Meeting all the friends we cook for, sharing stories, trips and fun.
00:24Big cook, little cook, we'll cook for everyone.
00:29Oh, hello, welcome to our cafe, the best cafe in the world.
00:40And today we're holding the great shoelace race.
00:45Have you sorted the shoelaces yet, Ben?
00:48Hello there.
00:49Now, Small, I can't decide whether to use these short, thin ones
00:54or the long and floppy yellow ones
00:57or the long and floppy red ones.
00:59What do you think?
01:01Hmm, I think we should go for the long and floppy red ones, Ben.
01:05They'll be quite tricky to tie, which will make the race really exciting.
01:09You bet, Small. Long and floppy red ones it is.
01:12Oh, this shoelace race is going to be very exciting.
01:17So, when I say ready, steady, go, Ben's going to tie his shoelaces really quickly.
01:24And I'm going to time him on my special timer.
01:27That way we'll know how quick he is.
01:29Oh, I'm going to go as fast as I can.

08:26It's got a very strong smell.
08:29And that's onion.
08:31In go the chopped onions.
08:33And this is a special ingredient,
08:35which holds the sausage together.
08:38It's all being mixed by hand.

10:43The jelly boats and pirates go with Princess Pea Pies.
10:48Carrot cakes and fruity smiles and envelopes surprise.
10:51We love our cafe and we love to cook.
10:55We have a fantastic recipe book.
11:01He is big cook and he is small.
11:05Friends in our cafe, we cook for them all.
11:09When your tummy gets all rumbly, you're ready for a treat.
11:14You can make something delicious to eat.
11:18Have you cleaned the surfaces?
11:26Yes.
11:26Have you washed your hands?
11:28Yes.
11:29All clean and ready to cook.
11:32Do you remember the ingredients to hot rod dogs?
11:35You do.
11:36There was a hot dog bun.
11:38One.
11:39A sausage.
11:41One.
11:41Tomato ketchup.
11:43In a squeezy bottle.
11:45Cucumber.
11:46Four slices.
11:46And a piece of card, a pencil and a lolly stick.
11:51Piece of card, pencil and a lolly stick.
11:55Whoopee!
11:55Let's get started.
11:57OK, then.
11:58First of all, we need to fry the sausage in a frying pan with a little bit of oil.
12:02OK.
12:04In it goes.
12:05A little bit of oil there.
12:08And on goes the hob.
12:10And in goes the sausage.
12:14Perfect.
12:14Now make sure you get your grown-up helper to do this bit for you because it's going to
12:19get hot, hot, hot.
12:20Now we need to fry the sausage until it's nice and cooked.
12:23Or you can grill it if you like.
12:25It needs to go all brown and crispy.
12:27It sounds like Small's having fun.
12:34And look, our sizzling sausage is all brown and crispy.
12:38So I need to turn off the hob.
12:40There we go.
12:42And pop the sausage onto a plate.
12:45On it goes.
12:46So what do we do now, Small?
12:50Put the sausage into a hot dog bun.
12:53OK.
12:54Now I've already sliced the top of our hot dog bun in two.
12:57Like that.
12:58And I'm going to pop in the sausage.
13:01There it goes.
13:02Now put the wheels on, Ben.
13:04Quick as you can.
13:05Vroom, vroom, vroom.
13:07OK.
13:08Take your four cucumber slices.
13:10These are going to make the car's wheels.
13:12One.
13:14Two.
13:16Three.
13:17And four wheels.
13:19Vroom, vroom, vroom, vroom, vroom, vroom, vroom.
13:21Small.
13:22It isn't going vroom, vroom yet.
13:24Oh?
13:25Really?
13:26It hasn't got a driver, has it?
13:28A car can't go vroom, vroom unless it's got a driver driving it.
13:32Of course.
13:33The driver.
13:35This is when you'll need your piece of card, a pencil and a lolly stick.
13:39OK.
13:41Now draw your driver on the piece of card.
13:44Here we go.
13:44I'm going to start by giving our racing driver a helmet.
13:49Whoa!
13:50That helmet looks really good.
13:52And I'm going to come round and I'm going to give him some racing goggles.
13:57And put his nose on the front there.
14:00There we are.
14:02Now he's a happy racing driver, so I'm going to make sure I give him a nice smiley face like that.
14:06And I'm going to give him a nice wavy scarf.
14:10So when he's driving really fast, it'll swoosh back with the wind.
14:14Hey, look at his scarf.
14:16Whoosh!
14:18And he's got to be steering because he's driving his hot rod.
14:22There we go.
14:23Oh, yeah, brilliant.
14:26A steering wheel.
14:27Woo-hoo!
14:28Around the corner he goes.
14:30Woo-hoo!
14:32Perfect.
14:33A racing driver.
14:35Vroom, vroom.
14:37Don't forget to colour him in, Ben.
14:39Good idea, Small.
14:40I'll give him a shiny red helmet.
14:44There we go.
14:46Nice and bright so all the other racers can see him.
14:50Colour his top blue.
14:52Oh, yes, Small.
14:53I'll give him a nice blue top.
14:58I'm sure everybody in the race is going to see our racing driver.
15:02He'll be the brightest of all of them.
15:06Lovely.
15:07Now it's time to cut him out.
15:16Don't forget to stick the driver on the lolly stick, Ben.
15:20Good thinking, Small.
15:22There's our racing driver.
15:23And I'm going to turn him round,
15:25put the lolly stick on the back,
15:27and stick it to it with some sticky tape.
15:33There it goes.
15:34One racing driver already.
15:37Put him in his car, Ben.
15:39OK.
15:40In he goes.
15:42Vroom, vroom.
15:45There's just one more thing, Ben.
15:47The tomato ketchup.
15:49Of course, tomato ketchup.
15:53Squirt the tomato ketchup down the middle of the hot dog.
15:55There it goes.
15:59Right down the middle.
16:01Lovely.
16:02One hot rod dog for Robert the racing driver.
16:05Ready, steady, go!
16:09Vroom, vroom, vroom.
16:11One hot rod dog coming through.
16:13There.
16:14All done.
16:21So what do we do now?
16:22Can we play?
16:23Not yet.
16:24Time to clean and put away.
16:26Hooray!
16:27Wash, wipe, scrub and clean.
16:37Make the kitchen sparkle and gleam.
16:42My name's Ben.
16:44And my name's Small.
16:46We've got the cleanest kitchen of all.
16:49Tidy all the bits and pop.
16:52The things that help us do our job.
16:54Ingredients we'll put away.
16:55Ready for use another day.
16:57Pots and pans we'll start to smell.
16:59If we don't wash them really well.
17:01And now it's clear, let's all smile.
17:03We'll be finished in a little while.
17:05All around.
17:06Up and down.
17:08We've got the cleanest cafe in town.
17:11Here comes the plate.
17:20Oh, yes.
17:21And look, Small.
17:22There's a note.
17:24What does it say?
17:25What does it say?
17:27Let's see, shall we?
17:30It says,
17:31Dear Big Cook Ben and Little Cook Small,
17:33Thank you for my hot rod dog.
17:36It was very tasty and you made it so fast.
17:39Vroom, vroom.
17:41So here is a present for you two speedy cooks
17:43to say thank you.
17:46It's a checkered flag.
17:48And look, Small.
17:49It says normally you use this flag
17:51to tell people when a race is over.
17:54But why don't you use it to start a race instead?
17:58The shoelace race.
18:01Here you go, Small.
18:03Wahey!
18:05Hey, you help with the ready, steady, go.
18:08Ready?
18:09Oh, yes, I'm ready.
18:12Steady?
18:12Oh, I'm steady, don't worry.
18:14Go!
18:15Here I go.
18:16One second, two seconds, three seconds.
18:19I'm done, finished.
18:21Whoa, whoa, whoa!
18:22Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.
18:24Ben, you've tied your laces so quickly,
