00:41The Flowerpot Man
00:44One night, Bill and Ben couldn't sleep.
00:50They were too busy looking up at the moon and the stars.
00:53But then clouds filled the sky and the stars disappeared.
00:57OK.
00:59Time for sleep.
01:05Global Weed
01:06All around the garden, Bill and Ben's friends were dropping off to sleep.
01:17In the part of the garden where Thistle lives, the man who works in the garden had put up a special light, which switched on in the dark as soon as it saw anything move.
01:31What's that?
01:33The sun's come out.
01:36The sun's come out.
01:37The sun's come out.
01:38The sun's come out.
01:42Oh, it's gone out.
01:43The sun's come out.
01:44The sun's come out.
01:45The sun's come out.
01:46The sun's come out.
01:49Oh, the sun's come out
01:53Oh, it's gone in again
01:57Flubba-dubba-lood
02:03Yes, perhaps it was the moon after all
02:07Good night
02:09Thistle couldn't stop laughing
02:15She thought it's such fun to wake everybody up
02:18And send them to sleep again
02:20I say
02:43Finally, Thistle tied herself out and fell asleep
02:51Oh, the sun's out again
02:56Good morning, Ben
02:59It's a lovely sunny morning
03:07Go and tell your friends
03:14It would be a shame for anyone
03:17To miss such a beautiful day
03:19However hard they looked
03:21Bill and Ben couldn't find any of their friends
03:24They were worried that if Slowcoach didn't have his breakfast soon
03:31He'd feel ill
03:32Slab-a-lub, slab-a-lub, slab-a-lub, slab-a-lub
03:36Bill thought Ben would give Slowcoach a nasty fright
03:41So he sent Ben to fetch some lettuce for breakfast
03:45Ben couldn't remember what Bill had sent him to fetch
03:54Er, Flab-a-lub, slab-a-lub, slab-a-lub, slab-a-lub
03:56I dare say it is a lovely sunny morning, Bill
04:03But I didn't want to wake up yet
04:05Oh, I was dreaming of a beautiful desert
04:08Or was it a sand pit?
04:12Flab-a-lub-a-dust
04:13I dare say it is time for breakfast
04:16But I've no lettuce in my cupboard
04:19Oh, Flab-a-lub, slab-a-lub
04:23Oh, you Flab-a-dub
04:26A nut? I can't eat a nut
04:29I haven't got the teeth for it
04:31Oh, Flab-a-lub-a-lub
04:35You know, I'd have to suck that nut, Bill
04:38It'd take me weeks
04:40Ben suddenly felt very tired
04:44Flab-a-lub-a-dust
04:59Oh, Flab-a-lub, slab-a-lub
05:05Oh, lettuce
05:08This is more like it
05:11Nuts indeed
05:13What a Flab-a-lub
05:20No, no, Rob-a-lub
05:22Bill and Ben didn't understand why the sun was out in one place, but not in another
05:27Oh, Flab-a-lub
05:29Here comes the sun, thought Ben
05:31But Bill thought the sun would shine more brightly
05:34Oh, Rob-a-lub
05:37Oh, it's my new shiny treasure. I thought it might be the sun.
05:50Duh, duh, Flop-a-dop-a-dun.
05:52You're right. If the sun's shining over there, this can't be the sun.
05:58But what is it?
05:59Rob-a-lob-a-lead.
06:00Oh, good idea. We'll ask Wade.
06:04The man who works in the garden carries that shiny treasure at night.
06:11It's a light.
06:14But it's not a light anymore.
06:18And it's not a shiny treasure. I'd better take it back.
06:25That was the shortest day I can ever remember.
06:29Oh.
06:34Oh.
06:39Oh, hibernate.
06:42Yes, that was the shortest night ever.
06:47Oh.
06:49What's happening?
06:50One minute it's day, the next it's night.
06:54Oh, I don't know whether to sleep or wake.
06:57I'm going to hibernate.
06:59Oh, Flop-a-dum-a.
07:01No, it's not much of a summer, Bill.
07:04Look at the sun.
07:06Not very big, is it?
07:08I thought the sun lived in the sky.
07:11That's not the sun.
07:13It's stuck on the wall of the house.
07:17Bill and Ben wanted a closer look at this strange new sun.
07:20It's thistle, turning that light on and off.
07:32Flop-a-dum.
07:33Yes, we must stop her and we must pay her back.
07:38Ben saw a strange shadow on the ground and Bill saw that it was made by a moth in front
07:43of the light.
07:50Yes.
07:52Let's give thistle a fright.
08:01Ah!
08:02Oh.
08:03What's that?
08:06A monster!
08:09Help!
08:09Help! Oh, go away, monster, please!
08:19Has the monster really gone?
08:22Flop-a-dop-a-died!
08:23Well, yes, I did make it go on and off.
08:27Only a bit of fun. I won't do it again, I promise.
08:31Flop-a-dop-a-dop-a-light!
08:33Yes, I will stay awake all night.
08:36I'll make sure no one turns the light on and off.
08:39I promise.
08:40At last, Bill and Ben could settle down to sleep.
08:51But next morning, They still felt very tired.
08:54So did Weed.
08:57At least we got some sleep last night.
09:06Flop-a-dop-a-dop!
09:08Bill and Ben slept all through the day
09:14Later on, the man who works in the garden
09:17Decided he didn't like being kept awake by his light going on and off
09:21So he took it away
09:22So Bill and Ben slept all through the next night as well
09:26Bill and Ben, the flower pot men
09:34Bill and Ben, the flower pot men
09:39They've been playing in the garden, playing with their friends
09:44Now they'll be sleeping in their pots all night long
