00:00:00I don't know
00:00:30There was once a boy called Bernard, who was always late.
00:01:00Sorry, Dad.
00:01:09Where's that boy?
00:01:11Whatever he was supposed to be doing, it was always the same.
00:01:15Bernard Beasley? Bernard? Has anyone seen Bernard?
00:01:20At school or at home, Bernard never seemed to be able to get there on time.
00:01:26Jane Catlayer?
00:01:27His parents tried to help.
00:01:30Bernard, could we have a talk?
00:01:33What, now?
00:01:35In here, Bernard.
00:01:36But I...
00:01:37Now.
00:01:43Your mother and I are very worried about the way you're late all the time.
00:01:49Dad, I...
00:01:49Just listen, Bernard.
00:01:50But we think we have the answer.
00:01:53The reason I am never late is because I have a diary and I write down where I'm supposed to be.
00:01:59Your father has one, too.
00:02:02You see, this afternoon he's going to tea with Grandma.
00:02:07And because he's written it down, he won't forget.
00:02:12Would you excuse me?
00:02:13Yes, yes, of course.
00:02:13Now, we've bought a diary for you and there's a page for each day so you can write down where you're supposed to be.
00:02:20For instance, are you doing anything special this afternoon?
00:02:24It's Karen's birthday party.
00:02:25Good.
00:02:26When's that?
00:02:27Four o'clock.
00:02:28Four o'clock?
00:02:28Bernard?
00:02:29It's nearly that now.
00:02:30You're going to be late.
00:02:31That's what I...
00:02:32Well, don't just sit there.
00:02:33Go upstairs and get changed.
00:02:37Whatever Bernard tried, it never seemed to make any difference.
00:02:45He was still late.
00:02:46Come on, Bernard.
00:02:59You're late.
00:03:12Put your coat in there, Bernard, and then come and get your hat and your badge from me.
00:03:16All right?
00:03:22Bernard had hurried as fast as he could, but when he got to the party, he found he had forgotten to bring Karen's birthday present.
00:03:33He often forgot things when he was hurrying, but in the cloakroom, Bernard found he had forgotten something even more important.
00:03:41In all the rush, he had also forgotten to put on his trousers.
00:03:46When he got there, he found his parents had gone out.
00:03:51When he got there, he found his parents had gone out.
00:03:54When he got there, he found his parents had gone out.
00:03:58Unfortunately, when he got there, he found his parents had gone out.
00:04:05Please, can I have the key, Mrs. Woodley? My parents are both out.
00:04:06Please, can I have the key, Mrs. Woodley? My parents are both out.
00:04:12Yes, of course you can, Bernard.
00:04:13He had to borrow a key from next door.
00:04:14Thanks.
00:04:15Then go home and get his trousers.
00:04:16Then go home and get his trousers.
00:04:17Then go home and get his trousers.
00:04:23Then go home and get his trousers.
00:04:24Then go home and get his trousers.
00:04:30Then go home and get his trousers.
00:04:31Then go home and get his trousers.
00:04:32Then go home and get his trousers.
00:04:37And then take the key back to Mrs. Woodley.
00:05:06Thanks, Mrs. Woodley.
00:05:08You're welcome, Bernard.
00:05:09Bye.
00:05:10It all seemed to take so much time, Bernard thought.
00:05:28Everything took time, and he never seemed to have enough of it.
00:05:31Until then, I youngřinось to go home andして back to her senses.
00:05:36No time.
00:05:37No time.
00:05:39Coming to her.
00:05:40It's the beginning of an anoscellona.
00:05:41Marshals cover.
00:05:42Then say to her.
00:05:43I don't want to do anything.
00:05:45It's the end of a change.
00:05:50Now a matter.
00:05:51If you go home and chain up home and set it,
00:05:56I will let you down.
00:05:58They are eight years old.
00:05:58There was hardly anything left of the bracelet
00:06:05Bernard had bought for Karen's birthday.
00:06:14There was no point going to the party now, Bernard thought.
00:06:18He was covered in mud, and there was no time to go and change.
00:06:21He had no present, and there was no time to get another.
00:06:25How he wished he had more time.
00:06:28How he wished.
00:06:33Bernard Beasley?
00:06:35What?
00:06:36You are Bernard Beasley.
00:06:38Yes.
00:06:39Ah, special delivery for you.
00:06:43If you'd like to sign here, please.
00:06:50Thank you. Cheerio.
00:06:57The only other thing in the box was a card, which said, press the button.
00:07:14On the other side of the card, it said, press the button again.
00:07:19Pressing the button made the watch stop.
00:07:44And when the watch stopped, everything stopped.
00:07:48Well, nearly everything.
00:07:50Excuse me.
00:08:06Yes?
00:08:07This watch.
00:08:09Yes?
00:08:09There's nothing wrong with it, is there?
00:08:10Seems okay to me.
00:08:16Yes.
00:08:17Yes, it's lovely.
00:08:19Are you sure it's for me?
00:08:20It's what you wish for, isn't it?
00:08:22I've always wanted more time.
00:08:23Bernard remembered that he had wished for more time.
00:08:26But usually when he wished for things, nothing happened at all.
00:08:30That'd be the magic ring, wouldn't it?
00:08:32I presume you did use a magic ring.
00:08:35Or a magic coin?
00:08:38Lucky charm?
00:08:40Book of spells?
00:08:43Fairy godmother?
00:08:44Little, little brass lamp?
00:08:47That's odd.
00:08:48It's usually one of those.
00:08:50I'll just check.
00:08:54Let's see.
00:08:56Hmph.
00:08:58Of course.
00:08:59Hmph.
00:08:59Rainbow.
00:09:00What?
00:09:01You were sitting at the end of a rainbow.
00:09:03It means you'll get a wish.
00:09:05Only one, mind.
00:09:06Not many people manage that one.
00:09:08Well done.
00:09:10So it's mine?
00:09:11I can keep it?
00:09:12It's all yours, Bernard.
00:09:14What are you going to do with it?
00:09:15I don't know.
00:09:17Ah, well, don't worry.
00:09:19You've got plenty of time to think of something.
00:09:21You've got as much time as you want.
00:09:24Toodaloo.
00:09:24Bernard thought about it, and then he knew exactly what he was going to do.
00:09:48First, he went back home.
00:10:04First, he went back home.
00:10:04Then he gave himself clean clothes.
00:10:13He tried to wash, but no water came out of the taps.
00:10:21Bernard realised that water takes time to run, and time had stopped.
00:10:27So he ran enough water to wet his flannel, and used that to wash his face.
00:10:39He walked down to the shops.
00:11:02Carefully chose the present he wanted, and went to pay for it.
00:11:09He had to work out himself how much change he needed.
00:11:24And then take it from the till.
00:11:26And then he went back home.
00:11:56And then he went back home.
00:12:26Happy birthday, Karen.
00:12:39Karen was really pleased with her present.
00:12:43It was a ray gun torch, which made seven different noises and had four different colours.
00:12:49She said it was the best present she'd had.
00:12:51Most people had given her jewellery.
00:12:54You were a long time hanging your coat up, Bernard.
00:12:56I thought we'd lost you.
00:12:58Goodness, where did you get that?
00:13:00Somebody gave it to me.
00:13:02Oh, lovely.
00:13:04Perhaps it'll stop you being late for everything, eh?
00:13:06Karen's mother was right.
00:13:08From that time on, Bernard was never late again.
00:13:12Bernard?
00:13:14Bernard, where are you?
00:13:15We're going to be late.
00:13:16Well, only occasionally.
00:13:19Where's Bernard?
00:13:20I don't know.
00:13:21You should have left five minutes ago.
00:13:22Bernard!
00:13:23And if he was late, Bernard always knew what to do about it.
00:13:46Bernard, are you up there?
00:13:48He's waiting for you in the car.
00:13:56What?
00:14:00Hmm.
00:14:00Hmm.
00:14:00Sorry.
00:14:16That's all right, Dad.
00:14:17Bernard told his father that it didn't matter.
00:14:20After all, he had plenty of time.
00:14:22There was once a boy called Bernard, who had a magic watch.
00:14:44Quick as you can, Bernard.
00:14:45Your father's in a hurry.
00:14:46Have you got your reading book?
00:14:47When he pressed the button on his watch, Bernard could make time stand still.
00:14:56He could move, but everything around him stopped.
00:14:58Well?
00:15:20It's in my bag.
00:15:21Good.
00:15:22Now straight out of the car.
00:15:23Your father doesn't want to be late.
00:15:24The wonderful thing about the watch was that you always had time to do anything you might
00:15:50have forgotten.
00:15:51I might be a bit late tonight.
00:16:16Oh, keys, keys.
00:16:22You want to be a bit more like Bernard.
00:16:24Learn to do things without rushing.
00:16:35See you tonight.
00:16:36OK, bye, Dad.
00:16:37Be good.
00:16:38I will.
00:16:44Dad!
00:16:44Dad!
00:16:46Bernard found his watch useful for all sorts of things.
00:16:59But one of the best places to use it was at school.
00:17:04For example, if he ran out of a particular color in art.
00:17:08Lunchtime, if he didn't like the vegetables, he could give them to Mr. Tree, the head of a tree.
00:17:38And in football, the watch meant Bernard was a remarkably good goalkeeper.
00:17:40And in football, the watch meant Bernard was a remarkably good goalkeeper.
00:17:57Whereever the ball was, Bernard always seemed to be there to stop it.
00:18:05Yay!

00:18:51Yay!
00:18:52Question three, nineteen, add nine, take away seven.
00:19:01Bernard was still trying to work out the answer to question one.
00:19:06If only he had more time, he thought.
00:19:08And then he remembered he could have as much time as he liked.
00:19:22With time to think, Bernard finally worked out question one.
00:19:33But he noticed that his friend Karen had a different answer.
00:19:39One of them had to be wrong.
00:19:45Unfortunately, the teacher had only written down the questions, not the answers.
00:20:06But James was the best in the class at maths.
00:20:09He always got the answers right.
00:20:22Question four, nine times three, nine multiplied.
00:20:28Bernard had always found multiplying difficult.
00:20:31But with his watch, it was very easy to work out the answer.
00:20:59And even to help his friend Karen.
00:21:06Bernard, what are you doing?
00:21:22Yes, miss?
00:21:29Why have you got your...
00:21:32I'm sorry.
00:21:33I thought...
00:21:34All right.
00:21:38Question five.
00:21:39Ten.
00:21:40Add two.
00:21:41At the end of the morning, Bernard discovered he had got full marks.
00:21:47He had never come top in anything before, and he was very proud.
00:21:51But he was also rather tired.
00:21:56Maybe, Bernard thought, he could use his watch in some of his other lessons.
00:22:11OK, time's up.
00:22:12Pass your books to the front, please.
00:22:14If he was writing a story...
00:22:18If he was writing a story...
00:22:25He could go on as long as he wanted.
00:22:26And the capital of Portugal is Bernard.
00:22:32If Miss Pico asked him a difficult question, he'd have no trouble finding the answer.
00:22:39If Miss Pico asked him a difficult question, he'd have no trouble finding the answer.
00:23:04Well done.
00:23:16He decided it could be rather fun.
00:23:29Bernard had no idea how long he slept.
00:23:32Because all the clocks said the same when he woke up, as they had when he lay down.
00:23:36But he felt a lot better.
00:23:38Bernard!
00:23:39In my office, please.
00:23:41At least he did.
00:23:42Until the headmaster said he wanted to see him.
00:23:48Sit down, Bernard.
00:23:52I've been looking at your maths test.
00:23:54You seem to have done very well.
00:23:56Yes, sir.
00:23:57And you're sure you found these answers on your own, are you?
00:24:02Bernard thought about this.
00:24:04Yes.
00:24:05Yes, I was on my own.
00:24:08In that case, you won't mind doing a few questions for me.
00:24:12What?
00:24:13Now?
00:24:14Is that a problem?
00:24:16No.
00:24:17Right.
00:24:18Right.
00:24:19What?
00:24:20Three multiplied by four minus two.
00:24:24All right, Bernard?
00:24:25Bernard's first thought was that he should run away.
00:24:30It didn't matter where, as long as he was away from the headmaster.
00:24:34Unfortunately, Mr. Tree was in the way.
00:24:41Of course.
00:24:42Perfect.
00:24:46But the calculator didn't seem to work.
00:24:50Then Bernard remembered that though a calculator is very fast,
00:24:54it still takes time, and time had stopped.
00:25:01There was only one thing to do.
00:25:03He'd have to work out the answer the way Miss Pico had shown him.
00:25:11Four times three minus two.
00:25:14It was quite simple, really.
00:25:15Ten.
00:25:29Good.
00:25:31Right.
00:25:33Three nines plus four.
00:25:39It was going to take a bit of time, Bernard realised.
00:25:42But it was all right.
00:25:43He had as much time as he needed.
00:25:50You wanted to see me about the...
00:25:52I'm sorry, I didn't realise.
00:25:54That's all right, we've just finished.
00:25:55I've been giving Bernard a maths test.
00:25:57Oh.
00:25:58And you're right.
00:25:59He's very good.
00:26:00Twenty questions are not a single mistake.
00:26:03This is a very clever boy.
00:26:05Oh, good.
00:26:07One can't help wondering why he's done so much better today than before.
00:26:10Yes.
00:26:12Well...
00:26:13But I think we know the answer.
00:26:16Hard work.
00:26:18Hard work, hard work and hard work.
00:26:20Is that right, Bernard?
00:26:22Well...
00:26:23Good lad.
00:26:24Off you go then.
00:26:25I was going to show you this letter that I...
00:26:32Sorry I'm late.
00:26:37Long day.
00:26:38You could say.
00:26:39Well...
00:26:42How's Bernard?
00:26:43Oh, it's all right.
00:26:44He did very well in a maths test at school today.
00:26:47In maths?
00:26:48Bernard?
00:26:49I know.
00:26:51And this evening he wrote a thank you letter to Grandad.
00:26:55And then drew some pictures to go with it.
00:26:57My word, he has been busy.
00:27:00He spent most of the evening doing his jigsaw.
00:27:02Did he?
00:27:04I think he's still awake if you want to go up and say goodnight.
00:27:08Yes.
00:27:09Yes, I think I will.
00:27:11You sure it was maths he did well in?
00:27:13Oh, yes.
00:27:14They had a test.
00:27:15He came top.
00:27:17Top?
00:27:18I hear you did rather well at school today.
00:27:25Yes.
00:27:26Well done.
00:27:27Oh, and, er...
00:27:28Grandad is going to be really pleased to get this.
00:27:31He likes it when you...
00:27:34Have you tidied up in here?
00:27:36Yes.
00:27:37And cleaned your shoes for the morning?
00:27:39Yes.
00:27:41OK, what's the secret?
00:27:43Secret?
00:27:44Letters, drawings, tidying up.
00:27:46How do you do it all?
00:27:47Well, it's not a secret exactly.
00:27:50I've just been giving everything I do a bit more time.
00:27:53Ah.
00:27:55Well, after a day like that, I think it's time you got some sleep.
00:27:59Can I just finish this story?
00:28:02In the morning, OK?
00:28:04Night-night.
00:28:05Night, Dad.
00:28:06It was all you needed for most things, really, thought Bernard.
00:28:18A bit more time.
00:28:20One day, Bernard went out into the garden with his magic watch.
00:28:37It was really great fun.
00:28:38He froze butterflies in mid-flight.
00:28:39And stopped a squirrel in its tracks.
00:28:52The best thing was a magpie, but it was a bit far away to see properly.
00:29:05Freezing it in mid-air meant he could reach up and actually hold it in his hand.
00:29:24Then Bernard had an idea.
00:29:25The zoo.
00:29:26If he used his watch at the zoo, he'd get close to some really interesting animals.
00:29:31He could touch a rhino, stroke a tiger, probably even put his head in a crocodile's mouth.
00:29:37Can we go to the zoo today, Mum?
00:29:38Not today, Bernard.
00:29:39I've got 12 Swiss rolls to make, plus 12 Swiss rolls to make, plus 12.
00:29:42The zoo.
00:29:43The zoo.
00:29:44The zoo.
00:29:45The zoo.
00:29:46The zoo.
00:29:47The zoo.
00:29:48The zoo.
00:29:49The zoo.

00:29:53The zoo.
00:29:54The zoo.
00:29:55The zoo.
00:29:56The zoo.
00:29:57The zoo.
00:29:58The zoo.
00:29:59The zoo.
00:30:00The zoo.
00:30:01The zoo.
00:30:02The zoo.
00:30:03The zoo.
00:30:04The zoo.
00:30:05The zoo.
00:30:07The zoo.
00:30:08The zoo.
00:30:12That is all.
00:30:13By the old night again, please call me a Hoele.
00:30:14The zoo.
00:30:15найдeads roll.
00:30:16He chose and theudsman.
00:30:17�only.
00:30:18He gave me a food然.
00:30:19The zoo.
00:30:20The zoo.
00:30:21The zoo.
00:30:22The zoo.
00:30:23The zoo.
00:30:24The zoo.
00:30:25The zoo.
00:30:26The zoo.
00:30:27The zoo.
00:30:28The zoo.
00:30:29How about when you're finished?
00:30:31Oh, it'll be too late.
00:30:33There are quite a few things she wants done.
00:30:37OK.
00:30:40It was all very disappointing.
00:30:42No one had enough time to take him to the zoo.
00:30:47Time.
00:30:50What sort of things, Dad?
00:30:52Sorry?
00:30:53What do you have to do for Mum?
00:30:55She wants me to deliver leaflets to every house on the road.
00:30:58Where are they?
00:31:00The leaflets, um, I think are on the whole table.
00:31:04Back inside to, uh, clinch, clinch...
00:31:06Delivering the leaflets couldn't have been easier.
00:31:30And for the first time, he had no problem with the Dixons' dog.
00:31:43He was able to rescue his friend John's football.
00:32:12And to say thank you to Mrs Harris for giving his boomerang back.
00:32:36He'd soon delivered all the leaflets.
00:32:57And the whole thing had taken no time at all.
00:33:00I think that's all been done, Dad.
00:33:07The leaflets?
00:33:08They're not on the whole table.
00:33:10Perhaps your mum took them earlier.
00:33:12Can we go to the zoo now?
00:33:14Well, there's still the jumble.
00:33:16I've got to carry it all down from the spare room to the garage and...
00:33:20There was quite a lot of jumble in the spare room.
00:33:36But luckily, Bernard had plenty of time.
00:33:47Of course, with time frozen, it couldn't fall.
00:34:09And this gave Bernard an idea.
00:34:15Nice to meet you.
00:34:16任ering.
00:34:17I thought the future had to guide me out at that same time.
00:34:25I gave you a copy of her age as well as you.
00:34:30Hello?
00:34:31Hello?
00:34:32Hello?
00:34:33Hi?
00:34:33Hello?
00:34:34Hello?
00:34:36Oh my God.
00:34:36Hi.
00:34:37Hello?
00:34:38Hello?
00:34:38Hi.
00:34:38Which certainly speeded things up.
00:35:08It was hard work, but luckily Bernard wasn't in any hurry.
00:35:33He even had time for a glass of milk.
00:35:41The milk wouldn't pour, he thought for a moment, then realised the only way to drink it was
00:35:47through a straw.
00:35:52This was a lot easier than carrying everything downstairs, in fact he became quite an expert.
00:36:21And pretty soon he'd moved all the jumble.
00:36:46There's something else Dad had to do.
00:36:56What?
00:36:57He's done the leaflets and the jumble.
00:36:59Already?
00:37:00Yes.
00:37:01That's amazing.
00:37:02And he's wondering if that's all.
00:37:03Well, I did want him to do some shopping.
00:37:06Shopping?
00:37:07I'm going to run out of icing sugar soon.
00:37:10I've made him a list.
00:37:14I don't know.
00:37:15You can do it.
00:37:16I'm going to run away.
00:37:18Bernard found the list and his mother's purse and set off to do the shopping.
00:37:35The Dixon's dog was loose, but it didn't bother Bernard.
00:37:39His friend John had got his ball back and was about to head it back onto the road again.
00:37:56And Mrs Harris looked really pleased with her present.
00:38:09The traffic was no problem.
00:38:18And Bernard was soon at the supermarket.
00:38:40He found shopping was a lot easier when the people were frozen too.
00:38:44The bit that took longest was spending his pocket money.
00:38:58The bit that took longest was spending his pocket money.
00:39:17He kept seeing things that he liked, and it wasn't easy to make up his mind.
00:39:22But, of course, it didn't matter. He had all the time in the world.
00:39:38There was no delay at the checkout.
00:39:55There was no delay at the checkout.
00:40:13Because, luckily, everyone was too distracted.
00:40:16To notice, he had jumped the queue.
00:40:28After Bernard had paid for the shopping, he loaded up and headed for home.
00:40:33Where did I put it?
00:40:55What, Mum?
00:40:57The shopping list I made for your father.
00:40:59After all his rushing around, Bernard was feeling rather hungry.
00:41:04Can I ask for lunch to eat, Mum? I'm starving.
00:41:08You couldn't be. It's only 20 minutes since breakfast.
00:41:11Oh! He's done the shopping as well.
00:41:14He has.
00:41:16I didn't even know he'd left the house.
00:41:18Right. What do you want me to do?
00:41:21Do? I couldn't ask you to do anything else. You've been wonderful.
00:41:25Have I?
00:41:26You brilliant man.
00:41:29Bernard decided to give them a few moments together before mentioning the zoo.
00:41:35Besides, after all his rushing about, he quite fancied a bit of a sit-down.
00:41:41Not long afterwards, Karen, his friend, dropped in with her mum with the perfect suggestion.
00:41:47We were wondering if Bernard would like to come to the zoo.
00:41:52The zoo? He was asking me earlier. He'd love to.
00:41:55Bernard!
00:41:57Bernard!
00:41:59Where are you?
00:42:00There you are.
00:42:05There you are.
00:42:07He was. But after all his work, Bernard was sound asleep.
00:42:12Bernard was practising his magic show.
00:42:21Pick a card.
00:42:22He'd just asked Mike the monkey to choose a card, when out of the window he saw a rabbit.
00:42:30It was in the middle of the road, and any minute now...
00:42:31Bernard froze.
00:42:32Then he remembered his magic watch.
00:42:33It was in the middle of the road, and any minute now...
00:42:36Bernard froze.
00:42:37Bernard froze.
00:42:38Then he remembered his magic watch.
00:42:39It was in the middle of the road, and any minute now...
00:42:40Bernard froze.
00:42:41Then he remembered his magic watch.
00:42:42Just in time.
00:42:43It was in the middle of the road, when out of the window he saw a rabbit.
00:42:49It was in the middle of the road, and any minute now...
00:42:54Bernard froze.
00:42:57Then he remembered his magic watch.
00:43:01It was in the middle of the road.
00:43:02It was in the middle of the road.
00:43:06Just in time.
00:43:07Bernard couldn't think what a white rabbit was doing in the middle of the road.
00:43:33But the first thing was to get it somewhere safe.
00:43:36Bernard was surprised to see that the man driving the car was his head teacher, Mr. Tree.
00:43:55What's more, he was doing 35 miles an hour, and it was a 30-mile limit.
00:44:05He decided to leave Mr. Tree a message.
00:44:10It said, you are going too fast.
00:44:21I'm going too fast.
00:44:22There.
00:44:23We are going too fast.
00:44:24He kills me every task.
00:44:25There are probably some Maho bikes on the road.
00:44:27What are you running out now?
00:44:28I have a loop band in the jungle, and it was two feet that they wanted.
00:44:29Don't forget, Stroking.
00:44:30You have to go.
00:44:31Oh my god!
00:44:32What are you running out?
00:44:33It's 100 miles an hour, and you have to walk your foot out.
00:44:34I have to walk your feet away.
00:44:35Everything you have to walk my feet away.
00:44:36A content which nicer is the hiring house...
00:44:37It was a lovely rabbit, and Bernard really wanted to keep it.
00:45:02The trouble was, his mother was allergic to fur,
00:45:05and animals weren't allowed in the house.
00:45:08He would have to hide it.
00:45:27Bernard thought he'd see if his friend Karen could help.
00:45:30Can I go round to Karen's?
00:45:31Yes, don't be too long.
00:45:33OK, Mum.
00:45:35Karen used to keep a rabbit, and she still had the hutch.
00:45:41Maybe she'd let him use it.
00:45:51Is Karen there, please?
00:45:53She's up in her room at the moment.
00:45:54Could you leave it till later?
00:45:56Oh.
00:45:57Maybe tomorrow.
00:45:58Right.
00:45:58One of the advantages of having a magic watch was that you didn't always have to do what
00:46:04people told you.
00:46:06Karen looked very upset, and Bernard thought it might be best not to bother her after all.
00:46:22Sorry to bother you, Mrs. Hewitt.
00:46:33I hope she gets better soon.
00:46:35I'll tell her you called.
00:46:37There was nothing for it.
00:46:39He'd have to look after the rabbit himself.
00:46:41So, the next thing was to visit the pet shop.
00:46:51Excuse me.
00:46:52I've got a rabbit.
00:46:54Oh, so you've got a rabbit.
00:46:57How lovely.
00:46:58Have you kept one before?
00:46:59Not really.
00:47:00Ah, well, in that case, what you'll need is this.
00:47:04You see, it's called rabbit.
00:47:05It'll tell you everything you want to know about rabbits.
00:47:08Now then, have you got a hutch?
00:47:10I think so.
00:47:11Ah, well, you'll need some food, won't you?
00:47:15Yes.
00:47:16Here we are.
00:47:16And you should give it a few greens as well, you know.
00:47:20Okay.
00:47:21You can scatter those around the hutch, but the food and water should be kept in their own
00:47:27bowls.
00:47:28Here we are.
00:47:29Ah, now, if you want the rabbit's name, put on the bowls.
00:47:32That's two quid extra at a time.
00:47:35Yes?
00:47:36Jolly good.
00:47:38Now, um, ah.
00:47:42These are your shavings.
00:47:44Now, you should change those at least once a week.
00:47:47And for that, you have your own little scooper.
00:47:52Now then, um, here's the bedding.
00:47:56Now, uh, put that in his sleeping area, won't you?
00:47:59Because he likes to keep nice and warm, you see.
00:48:03Now then, what else do we need?
00:48:05Ah, I know.
00:48:06So, one brush, one comb, one grooming mat.
00:48:12Um, oh yes, and, uh, set of nail clippers, very important.
00:48:18A packet of vitamin sticks, and I'll tell you what, you've been such a good customer, I'll
00:48:24throw in a packet of fluffy bunny chocolate drops for nothing.
00:48:28How's that?
00:48:30Now then, young man, you owe me, um, £23.60p.
00:48:37Let's call it £23, shall we?
00:48:39I don't think I've got that much.
00:48:41Uh, oh, well, you don't have to buy it all today, you know.
00:48:45How much have you got?
00:49:04But when Bernard came back from the shop, all the boxes had gone.
00:49:08What's happened to everything?
00:49:22You mean the jumble boxes?
00:49:24Mr Tree took them.
00:49:25All of them?
00:49:26They're for the summer fair.
00:49:28Are you all right?
00:49:29Bernard wasn't all right at all.
00:49:36Where's he taken them?
00:49:38To the school?
00:49:39Are you sure you're all right?
00:49:41Thanks, Mum.
00:49:46Bernard headed for school.
00:49:52But there was no sign of Mr Tree's car.
00:50:04The one thing he didn't have to worry about
00:50:07was looking out for traffic.
00:50:09Then he saw what he was looking for
00:50:11on the other side of the park.
00:50:29Bernard tried to open the back of the car.
00:50:32The box with the rabbit in it was there with all the others.
00:50:5640 miles an hour.
00:51:26Bernard wrote another note.
00:51:40You are still going too fast, slow down.
00:51:45You really should be more careful, thought Bernard.
00:52:02Not again.
00:52:12You are still going too fast.
00:52:19You are still going too fast.
00:52:27You are still going too fast.
00:52:34All he needed now was a couple of bowls and some water.
00:52:49Where's Bernard, Mrs Peasley?
00:52:56Bernard!
00:52:57Yes, Mum?
00:52:58Karen's here.
00:52:59I think he's in the kitchen if you want to go through.
00:53:04Mum said you came round.
00:53:11What's wrong?
00:53:12It's my rabbit.
00:53:13What?
00:53:14I got a new one yesterday called Snowy and he's gone.
00:53:19But it was alright.
00:53:20Bernard knew just the thing to cheer her up.
00:53:22And now for the final part of my show, a trick so amazing it'll leave you gasping in amazement.
00:53:34Anything inside?
00:53:41No hidden trap doors or pockets?
00:53:44No.
00:53:45No hidden trap doors.
00:53:46No hidden trap doors.
00:53:47No hidden trap doors.
00:53:48No hidden trap doors.
00:53:49And now for the magic words.
00:53:52No hidden trap doors.
00:53:54Let's go.
00:54:12She's out!
00:54:35Planet!
00:54:38It's snowy!
00:54:42That's very clever, Bernice.
00:54:47Well, he was in the middle of the room.
00:54:50On the way home, Bernard told Karen all about finding her rabbit.
00:54:54Well, not quite all.
00:54:57I'm going to put her in the middle of the room.
00:55:09So, you're in the middle of the room...
00:55:12Bernard decided to leave another note.
00:55:33It said, that's much better.
00:55:36Have a nice day, Mr Tree.
00:55:42That's a really nice watchie.
00:55:53I like it.
00:55:54Is it very old?
00:55:57Bernard said he thought it probably was,
00:56:00but that it still gave him very good time.
00:56:12And then he has a bath at 7 o'clock and lights out by 7.30, all right?
00:56:22Right.
00:56:23All set?
00:56:24I think so.
00:56:26Every summer, Bernard's parents went away for a break on their own,
00:56:30and his grandfather came to look after him.
00:56:36If there are any problems...
00:56:37Don't worry about us, just enjoy yourselves.
00:56:40Oh, thank you.
00:57:01Grandad could be a little vague at times,
00:57:07but Bernard liked it when he came to stay,
00:57:09because the first thing he always said
00:57:11as the car disappeared from view was...
00:57:14Well, Bernard, what would you like to do?
00:57:17I'd like to go with cricket.
00:57:19Well, as long as I can bowl first...
00:57:20Grandad always seemed to have time to do whatever you wanted.
00:57:26Well played.
00:57:37How about a game of Monopoly, Grandad?
00:57:40Whatever Bernard wanted to play,
00:57:42Grandad was always happy to join in.
00:57:50Come on, Grandad.
00:57:52All Bernard ever had to do was ask.
00:57:56This is the one that takes about five hours to finish, isn't it?
00:58:17That's all right.
00:58:20Good.
00:58:22Grandad not only played cowboys and Indians,
00:58:24but taught Bernard how to make smoke signals.
00:58:28With a real campfire.
00:58:31We have to be very careful with this,
00:58:33so don't try it on your own.
00:58:35Grandad.
00:58:49Grandad.
00:58:51Grandad, look.
00:58:52What?
00:58:54Oh, what's the matter?
00:58:56My crane's broken, Grandad.
00:59:00Oh, dear.
00:59:00If Bernard had a toy that was broken...
00:59:03We can't have that, can we?
00:59:04Grandad always had time to look at it.
00:59:08Well, I'll fix it.
00:59:11Have you found out what's wrong yet, Grandad?
00:59:16Yes, I think I have.
00:59:20I'll tell you what we're going to have to do.
00:59:23Grandad always knew what to do.
00:59:25Thanks, Grandad.
00:59:26It's fantastic.
00:59:27Now, the car is, um...
00:59:30We walked here, Grandad.
00:59:31So we did, so we did.
00:59:33Well done, that boy.
00:59:39This way, is it?
00:59:42Bernard hardly used his watch during Grandad's visit,
00:59:45but there were a few times when it was useful.
00:59:47The watch saved some windows when they played cricket.
01:00:09Oh, I thought...
01:00:31Well, bold.
01:00:34And it was particularly useful the time Grandad set the garden on fire.
01:00:47Even though Grandad had been careful,
01:00:49he had not been careful enough.
01:00:58And it was only because Bernard had his watch
01:01:01that they were able to put out the flames.
01:01:03Whoa!
01:01:07Good job we had that hose!
01:01:11Surely, Hillary thought he'd escaped.
01:01:13But most of the time, Bernard didn't need his watch.
01:01:16With Grandad, there seemed to be plenty of time for everything.
01:01:20Hiding behind the tree...
01:01:21At bedtime, Grandad would read for as long as Bernard wanted.
01:01:26Looming out of the swamp,
01:01:29he saw a creature more ghastly than anything he could have imagined.
01:01:32And the stories he chose were very exciting.
01:01:35His skin, its huge arms, trailed the ground behind it,
01:01:39and the blank, black sockets of its eyes
01:01:41stared in Edward's direction with a ferocious intensity.
01:01:46At its waist, it carried a belt
01:01:49made of shrunken heads tied together with dried grass.
01:01:52And in one hand...
01:01:54In one hand, it held the professor's arm.
01:02:03So that's what's happened to it.
01:02:07And if Bernard woke up in the night from a bad dream...
01:02:12Grandad?
01:02:14Grandad?
01:02:15Bernard?
01:02:16Bernard?
01:02:17Can I have something to drink, Grandad?
01:02:21Grandad was always there.
01:02:23Why don't you sit here?
01:02:27And I'll make us both a cup of hot chocolate.
01:02:29Thanks, Grandad.
01:02:31I've been reading a bit more of your book.
01:02:32Yes.
01:02:33You know the professor lost his arms?
01:02:34He's lost his legs now as well.
01:02:35You remember the woman...
01:02:36It didn't seem to matter what time it was.
01:02:38Whether it was day or night, whatever Grandad was doing,
01:02:40he was always happy to put it aside and look after Bernard.
01:02:44I thought she was when they pushed that stake through her,
01:02:46but apparently it was the wrong sort of wood.
01:02:47It was hickory, and that doesn't count.
01:02:50Anyway, she finds the professor,
01:02:52and do you know that sort of gungey stuff she can make come out of her fingers?
01:02:54No.
01:02:55You know the professor lost his arms?
01:02:56You know the professor lost his arms?
01:02:57He's lost his legs now as well.
01:02:58You remember the woman...
01:02:59It didn't seem to matter what time it was.
01:03:00Whether it was day or night,
01:03:01whatever Grandad was doing,
01:03:02he was always happy to put it aside and look after Bernard.
01:03:05I thought she was when they pushed that stake through her,
01:03:08but apparently it was the wrong sort of wood.
01:03:09It was hickory and that doesn't count.
01:03:10Anyway, she finds the professor,
01:03:13you know,
01:03:15most of the people Bernard had met
01:03:17didn't seem to have enough time for themselves,
01:03:19let alone anyone else.
01:03:21But with Grandad,
01:03:22it had always been different.
01:03:25And she goes for him with an axe.
01:03:27She gives this great sweep,
01:03:29and at first he thinks she's missed because nothing happens.
01:03:32Then his legs fall off.
01:03:34Grandad was the only person Bernard knew
01:03:36who never said that he was too busy
01:03:38or that he would do it tomorrow
01:03:40or to ask someone else,
01:03:42but who always seemed to have time.
01:03:48Next day, when Grandad was digging a new bed
01:03:50to hide where the fire had been,
01:03:52Bernard asked him why this was.
01:03:54Why have I got so much time?
01:03:56Yes.
01:03:57I'm not sure.
01:04:00I think most people have more time as they grow older.
01:04:03More time?
01:04:04Yes.
01:04:05In fact, when you get to my age,
01:04:06you've got so much of it.
01:04:08The best thing you can do is to give some of it to other people.
01:04:11Like a present?
01:04:12Exactly.
01:04:13Best present you can give to someone your time.
01:04:18Now, what are we going to plant in here?
01:04:22The one thing Grandad did not have time for was tidying up.
01:04:26He always said that was wasting time,
01:04:28and he saved it until the morning of the day Bernard's parents came home.
01:04:32Grandad!
01:04:33Grandad!
01:04:34What?
01:04:35They're here.
01:04:36Oh.
01:04:37Mum and Dad, they're home.
01:04:38What?
01:04:39Home?
01:04:40But they weren't supposed to be home until Thursday.
01:04:41I think it is Thursday, Grandad.
01:04:42But we haven't had a chance to clear up.
01:04:43Oh, look at this place.
01:04:45Help me get this stuff in the kitchen, will you?
01:04:46Oh, look at this place.
01:04:47Oh, look at this place.
01:04:48Oh, look at this place.
01:04:49Oh, look at this place.
01:05:02Oh, look at this place.
01:05:03Oh, look at this place.
01:05:05Oh, look at this place.
01:05:08Oh, look at this place.
01:05:10We have to clear it off.
01:05:11We haven't got time, Grandad.
01:05:12We...
01:05:13We have to, Bernard.
01:05:15If your mother sees all this, she'll never let me stay here again.
01:05:20Ah!
01:05:21Bernard pressed the watch almost without thinking,
01:05:23but he wasn't quite sure what to do next.
01:05:26Before he could start time again,
01:05:28he had to work out some way to stop Grandad hurting himself
01:05:31when he landed on the floor.
01:05:33Bernard's first idea was to put cushions on the floor,
01:05:40but it still looked as if Grandad might hurt himself,
01:05:43and everyone would probably want to know how the cushions had got there.
01:05:47He had a better idea.
01:05:49And brought the armchair in from the sitting room.
01:06:01So, I wonder if he was there,
01:06:03but it's coming up the door.
01:06:04Oh, he's like...
01:06:07Oh, no.
01:06:08Oh, no.
01:06:09Oh, my goodness.
01:06:10He's going to stop with the stairs.
01:06:11I guess, before he went down for the stairs.
01:06:12Oh, my God.
01:06:13I got a good idea.
01:06:14I was just waiting for him to stay for a second.
01:06:15Huh?
01:06:16Oh, no.
01:06:17Oh, no.
01:06:18Oh, no.
01:06:19I'm so sorry.
01:06:20Oh, no.
01:06:21Oh, no.
01:06:22Oh, no.
01:06:23Oh, no.
01:06:25Bernard remembered Grandad had been worried about how untidy the room was.
01:06:36If your mother sees all this, she'll never let me stay here again.
01:06:55I don't know.
01:07:25Oh, I haven't. I thought... Have I been asleep?
01:07:50Hello? Anyone home?
01:07:51It's your parents. We've got...
01:07:54I have been asleep, haven't I?
01:07:59Oh, it's good to be back. Hello, Dad. How's it been?
01:08:03My word, someone's been working hard.
01:08:05Oh, Dad, you shouldn't have bothered.
01:08:08Well, I...
01:08:08I'll put the kettle on. Will you go and get the luggage in, John?
01:08:11Right, you are.
01:08:12Did you do all this while I was asleep?
01:08:18Well...
01:08:19But, I mean, you... How long did it take?
01:08:22It's all right, Grandad. It didn't really take any time at all.
01:08:25Well, they seem to have enjoyed themselves.
01:08:32They go on well, don't they? I've often wondered why.
01:08:35You've, er, seen Bernard's new garden?
01:08:37Oh, yes. In the middle of the lawn.
01:08:40Dad thought he ought to have somewhere of his own to plant things.
01:08:43Ah, that's where it is.
01:08:46What?
01:08:47He was looking for his book.
01:08:48Oh, goodness. I hope he doesn't let Bernard get his hands on this.
01:08:55Thanks.
01:08:56Well, I don't know how you put up with him, Dad, but we are very grateful.
01:09:01Thanks, Dad.
01:09:03See you again soon.
01:09:05You certainly will.
01:09:07Bye, Bernard.
01:09:07Oh, Dad, you take care of yourself now.
01:09:11I will, Grandad.
01:09:13Oh, I nearly forgot.
01:09:15Present for you.
01:09:23Bye.
01:09:27Stop!
01:09:37What's he given you, then?
01:09:40Oh, goodness.
01:09:42It's thyme.
01:09:43What?
01:09:44That's the name of the plant.
01:09:45It's called thyme.
01:09:46I suppose it's for your new garden.
01:09:48To Bernard, the best present, thank you.
01:09:52What does he mean by that, best present?
01:09:54Don't ask me.
01:10:02But Bernard knew exactly what his grandad had meant.
01:10:05I suppose it's for your grandad.
