01:44Hello, how are you?
01:47Is that so?
01:49So, what's the story in Bala Mori?
01:52Well, today in Bala Mori, you can certainly feel the weather, because it's a cold day.
02:01And everyone here is busy going to work and school.
02:09So, I wonder what adventures we'll get up to today.
02:14Oh, look!
02:16It's plaster scene.
02:18I love playing with this stuff.
02:22You can make all sorts of things.
02:25Like a long snake, ssssss, or a bracelet.
02:36Oh, that's lovely.
02:40Ah, there's the school bus.
02:43I wonder who'll be coming to the Bala Mori nursery today.
02:46Hello, Robbie.
02:48Hi, Matthew.
02:50There's Leah.
02:51It's Natalie.
02:52And who else, I wonder?
02:55And you, joining the fun too?
03:01Everybody, everyone, come inside and join the fun.
03:07Listening, laughing, watching, thinking, copying, giggling, make a funny face.
03:14Everybody, everyone, come inside and join the fun.
03:20How y'all getting on?
03:23Doing all right.
03:25Maybe roll it out.
03:26Do you want me to help you roll this bit out?
03:28Is that all right?
03:30Got Beth in it?
03:31That's it.
03:32Hello?
03:34Oh.
03:34Anyone home?
03:36Sounds like we have a visitor coming.
03:40I wonder who it could be?
03:42I'll just go and see.
03:48Hi there, Penny.
03:50Hi, Miss Hoorley.
03:51Hi, everyone.
03:52Hi.
03:55Oh.
03:55Is this a flying visitor if you've got time for a quick cup of tea?
03:58Oh, a quick cup would be great.
04:00Actually, I just popped in to let you know that I may be a little late for the children's activity
04:05lesson this afternoon.
04:06Oh.
04:07Is it busy at the shop?
04:08Oh, no, it's not the shop. I'm going to a boat race.
04:12Oh, with the rowing club? Are you a member?
04:14I'm the head coach.
04:16Oh.
04:17That's why I'm organising the race for a new team member.
04:20Anybody I know?
04:21Josie Jump.
04:22Josie? That's brilliant.
04:25Mind, she did seem a little nervous at practice the other day.
04:28She kept catching a crab.
04:30Are there many crabs in the river?
04:31Oh, no, not that kind of crab, Miss Hoorley.
04:35Catching a crab is a raising term for when you get your oars stuck too deep in the water.
04:40Oh, I see. Oh, brilliant.
04:43I know. Why don't you pop into the nursery later and tell the children all about the race?
04:48OK.
04:49Oops. Time's raising away. I must be up to see Josie.
04:52Thanks for the tea. See you later.
04:54Bye, Penny. And wish Josie luck for me.
04:59So, which coloured house do you think Penny will visit first today?
05:07Can you see all the different coloured houses sitting by the sea?
05:13Well, it's part of the story in Ballamorea.
05:16Which is the house for me?
05:19Is it orange? Is it red?
05:22Or should we go to the blue house instead?
05:24Yellow, green, white or pink?
05:27Tell me, what do you think?
05:30Orange house, yellow, red, blue house or pink?
05:36Green house, white house, tell me, what do you think?
05:41It's a yellow house!
05:44Yes, it's the yellow house because that's where Josie Jump lives.
05:51Paul!
05:54Paul!
05:57This...
05:57Drive!
05:58What?
05:59Oh, Penny, it's you.
06:01Yes. Sorry, Josie. Did I give you a fright?
06:04No, no. I was so busy concentrating I didn't hear you come in.
06:08Oh, I do hope I can remember what to do during the race this afternoon.
06:11Oh, you've nothing to worry about. You'll sail through it.
06:15Hope so.
06:16I know so. But listen, if you are worried, why don't I run through the things you have to remember
06:22to do?
06:22That would be great.
06:23OK. Lower your oars.
06:27And drive!
06:30Don't you mean row?
06:32Drive means row, Josie.
06:35You drive yourself backwards in the seat by pushing your feet forwards and pulling the oars through the water.
06:43Now, drive!
06:47And drive!
06:49And drive!
06:51Pull a little more on the bow side.
06:54Pull a little more on the left.
06:55Oh, now, let's up the rating.
06:57That means go faster.
06:59Good. And push. And push. And push. And push. Faster. Faster. And stop.
07:13Phew. How did I do?
07:15Oh, brilliantly. I wouldn't be surprised if you and the rest of the team crack the Balamori rowan record today.
07:22Oh, that reminds me. I should go and fetch my stopwatch from the shop before the race.
07:27Oh, I wish you were in the boat next to me, Penny, to help me along.
07:30Don't you, booey, Josie. I'll be on the riverbank jogging your memory.
07:34But are you sure I'll be able to hear you from the boat?
07:36Oh, I'll guarantee that.
07:39Ouch. All that shouting's made my voice so still. I'm sure I'll be finding time for the race. I hope.
07:48See you later.
07:49OK, Penny. Bye.
08:04Oh, hello, Penny. You're back early. The boat race's finished already.
08:10What's that? I didn't hear you.
08:13Oh, sorry, Susie. My throat's a little sore.
08:15Oh, no. The race hasn't started yet. I've just come back for my stopwatch.
08:20Oh, your stopwatch. Now, I saw it a minute ago. I put it somewhere safe. But...
08:25But where?
08:27Under a plant pot.
08:29No.
08:30Oh.
08:34On the shelf?
08:35No.
08:44There it is, Susie.
08:46Where?
08:47It's round your neck.
08:49Oh!
08:50Silly me!
08:52At least it was safe.
08:57You really shouldn't have talked any more today, Penny. Your voice is awful sore.
09:03But I promised Josie I'd shut her instructions from the shore during a race. I can't let her down.
09:09Well, maybe you could make your voice louder without shouting.
09:12How?
09:13I don't know. You could make something.
09:16But I'm not good at making things, Susie.
09:20I know somebody who is.
09:23Archie.
09:23Oh, yes.
09:26I'll go round and see Archie.
09:30Did I hear you say that you've got a confusion?
09:35Great inventions, groovy solutions.
09:39Super Archie's surfing through the solution.
09:42Great inventions, groovy solutions.
09:46Archie can make most anything.
09:49I can solve your problem, so give me a ring now.
09:53How Archie's inventions can help the nation.
09:57Great inventions, groovy solutions.
10:00Yeah, I've got a thing called imagination.
10:04Great inventions, groovy solutions.
10:08From crazy hats that help us sing.
10:11To pigs that fly with yogurt pot wings, yeah.
10:15Great inventions, groovy solutions.
10:19Great inventions, groovy solutions.
10:22Do your cocks need to plug in?
10:27Do your cocks need to plug in?
10:29Has your sprocket sprung its screw?
10:37Do your widgets keep me plucking?
10:41What did it, what did it, oh, what did it?
10:44Well, with my inventions, I'll sort it out for you.
10:49I know what to do.
10:51Archie's such a clever chap.
10:53He knows a lot now.
10:55Great inventions, groovy solutions.
10:58I'm a scientific wonder.
11:00With a yogurt pot now.
11:02Great inventions, groovy solutions.
11:05Archie, yeah.
11:15Hello, Archie.
11:17Archie, hello.
11:24My nose.
11:26Oh, it's still there.
11:28Sorry, Archie.
11:30I didn't mean to give you both a fright.
11:32No problem, Penny.
11:33No harm done.
11:35So, what's the story in Balamore?
11:37Oh, well, it all started this morning when I called in to say Miss Julia at the nursery.
11:47Popped in to tell her that I'd be late for the activity lesson because I had to go to a
11:51ball race.
11:52But first, I had to dash off to coach Josie Jump.
11:57Josie has been practising for her first row ball race and was very nervous.
12:03I promised to talk her through the race, but my voice suddenly became very sore.
12:11By the time I'd pop back to the shop to collect my stopwatch, my voice had almost gone.
12:20I really don't want to break my promise to Josie.
12:23So, Susie thought you might be able to get my voice back in time for the race.
12:27I'm not sure I can cure your sore throat, Penny.
12:29You need to see a doctor for that.
12:30Oh, well, I haven't time to call the doctors now, Archie.
12:35I suppose I could magnify what's already there.
12:38By using a megaphone, you could have maximum output with minimum input.
12:41A megaphone?
12:42It's an elementary procedure to make one, just as long as I have the right equipment, of course.
12:46Uh, now.
12:48Right.
12:48Oh.
12:50Yogurt pot.
12:52Uh, I'll take there.
12:53Piece of coloured car.
12:56Perfect.
12:57And, oh, yes.
13:02How can all that help me?
13:04By using simple science to increase the volume of your voice.
13:07And?
13:08Well, when you have a sore throat, the hole gets smaller, and so your volume decreases.
13:13This will increase the volume so that your voice will be louder.
13:16I'm not putting that down my throat.
13:19Oh.
13:20Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, you see.
13:23You speak into this, like that.
13:27And then the volume increases.
13:29Understood?
13:31Loud and clear.
13:33Splendid.
13:33Right.
13:34I'll just use these scissors to make a hole on top of this pot.
13:38Right.
13:47Well, there we are.
13:49Hey, what are those sticks for, Archie?
13:52Oh, goodness, I nearly forgot.
13:54There to attach the megaphone to your chair.
13:57Right.
13:58Here we are.
14:00Thank you, Penny.
14:03Right.
14:05Now.
14:12Well, I'll try it out.
14:14OK.
14:16Testing, testing, one, two, three.
14:21Ah, it works.
14:24Thank you, Archie.
14:25Josie will definitely be able to hear me now.
14:28My pleasure.
14:37I wish Penny was here.
14:39I'm sure I won't be able to do this without her help.
14:41Here I am.
14:43I'm here, Josie.
14:44Penny!
14:46Now, just remember everything I taught you.
14:49Now, look at the ears.
14:52That's it.
14:54And get ready.
14:56Get set.
15:18Come on, Josie.
15:21Come on, Josie.
15:32Come on, Josie.
15:34Come on, Josie.
15:38Yeah!
15:39Come on, Josie.
15:41Well done, Josie.
15:43Well done, anyone.
15:45All at the new record time.
15:50Thanks for your help, Penny.
15:52Would you like a rose?
15:52Can you ride back on the boat?
15:54No thanks Josie, they're a small rowers waiting for me back in the nursery
16:03Is everyone ready in the rowboats?
16:06Let me see
16:07OK
16:10Row, row, row your boat, gently down the stream
16:14Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, like this fountain dream
16:18OK, let's try to row a bit faster, ready, steady, go!
16:23Row, row, row your boat, gently down the stream
16:26Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, like this fountain dream
16:30OK, it's fantasy and gold, right in the finish line
16:34Row, row, row your boat, gently down the stream
16:37Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, like this fountain dream
16:42Yay!
16:43Give yourself a big clap!
16:46Boys and girls, I think we should say a big, big cheering thank you to Penny Pocket!
16:50Yay!
16:52Yay!
16:53Thank you!
16:55And Archie too!
17:04So, what was the story in Ballamory today?
17:08Well...
17:12Penny said she was organising a boat race and that Josie Jump was to take part
17:18Josie was nervous because this was her first boat race
17:22Penny lost her voice helping Josie learn to row
17:26Susie thought Archie might be able to get Penny's voice back in time for the race
17:31Archie did!
17:32He invented a megaphone which Penny used to help Josie hear her during the race
17:38Josie's team won and Penny popped back here to the nursery to join in a sing-along boat race with
17:44us all
17:44Her voice was much better
17:49And that was the story in Ballamory
17:52I didn't know rowing was such fun, did you?
17:55Or such hard work
17:57Ouch!
17:58My back's a wee bit sore
18:01That's probably from all the laughing we did
18:04Still, I think I'll stick to making boats rather than rowing them
18:10I'll see you soon
18:11Bye!
