1
00:00:01.199 --> 00:00:02.480
<v Speaker 1>Who Who Hendrix.

2
00:00:04.360 --> 00:00:07.759
<v Speaker 2>Once upon a time, in an emerald green wood, there

3
00:00:07.799 --> 00:00:11.759
<v Speaker 2>lived an owl. Nothing unusual about that, you might think,

4
00:00:12.279 --> 00:00:17.440
<v Speaker 2>except this owl was quite possibly the coolest owl that

5
00:00:17.600 --> 00:00:22.440
<v Speaker 2>ever lived anywhere. His name was who who Hendrix, and

6
00:00:22.519 --> 00:00:26.120
<v Speaker 2>he was so cool that he wore sunglasses all the time,

7
00:00:26.559 --> 00:00:30.719
<v Speaker 2>even at night. Nothing ever, seemed to ruffle the feathers

8
00:00:30.760 --> 00:00:33.679
<v Speaker 2>of who who Hendrix, to the extent that the other

9
00:00:33.840 --> 00:00:39.159
<v Speaker 2>animals of the wood all thought he was incredibly awesome. Well,

10
00:00:39.560 --> 00:00:45.200
<v Speaker 2>almost all the other animals. One animal was particularly jealous

11
00:00:45.240 --> 00:00:49.159
<v Speaker 2>of the attention and comments that who who Hendrix received.

12
00:00:49.799 --> 00:00:54.079
<v Speaker 2>She thought that she deserved some attention too. Her name

13
00:00:54.240 --> 00:00:59.200
<v Speaker 2>was Victoria, a rabbit with particularly soft fur. She was

14
00:00:59.320 --> 00:01:02.479
<v Speaker 2>so proud of her fur that she felt it deserved

15
00:01:02.520 --> 00:01:07.319
<v Speaker 2>to be noticed. She would strut between the trees, pausing

16
00:01:07.439 --> 00:01:10.319
<v Speaker 2>every now and again to lean up against a root

17
00:01:10.719 --> 00:01:13.920
<v Speaker 2>or pose before a dandelion, in the hopes that a

18
00:01:13.959 --> 00:01:20.120
<v Speaker 2>passing animal would comment, What a delightful morning, she announced

19
00:01:20.159 --> 00:01:25.120
<v Speaker 2>loudly to a passing hedgehog. I beg your pardon, said

20
00:01:25.159 --> 00:01:28.680
<v Speaker 2>the hedgehog, who clearly had something else on his mind.

21
00:01:29.879 --> 00:01:34.519
<v Speaker 2>I said, repeated Victoria, as she made a big deal

22
00:01:34.599 --> 00:01:38.280
<v Speaker 2>of stroking the soft fur on her leg. What a

23
00:01:38.439 --> 00:01:42.319
<v Speaker 2>delightful morning it is. Just look at the way the

24
00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:49.239
<v Speaker 2>warm sunlight simply shines upon my luxurious fur. Warm sunlight,

25
00:01:49.640 --> 00:01:54.519
<v Speaker 2>muttered the hedgehog, barely slowing down. If it's bothering you,

26
00:01:54.519 --> 00:01:58.359
<v Speaker 2>you should get some sunglasses, like who who Hendrix? That

27
00:01:58.560 --> 00:02:01.040
<v Speaker 2>owl sure knows how to look good in a pair.

28
00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:07.439
<v Speaker 2>With that, said the hedgehog ambled on, flip and flop

29
00:02:07.719 --> 00:02:11.599
<v Speaker 2>spat the rabbit as she stamped a large foot. Why

30
00:02:11.759 --> 00:02:15.919
<v Speaker 2>is it that all anyone ever talks about is that obnoxious,

31
00:02:16.240 --> 00:02:20.439
<v Speaker 2>odious owl? Can't they just take a moment to see

32
00:02:20.479 --> 00:02:25.919
<v Speaker 2>how fabulous I am? Say, little bunny, what's got you

33
00:02:26.159 --> 00:02:29.800
<v Speaker 2>so hot and bothered? Asked a relaxed voice within the

34
00:02:29.879 --> 00:02:34.039
<v Speaker 2>branches above her. Victoria was taken aback to see who

35
00:02:34.039 --> 00:02:40.000
<v Speaker 2>who hendricks up? There? Uh, nothing to concern yourself with, said.

36
00:02:39.759 --> 00:02:40.879
<v Speaker 1>The rabbit, sniffily.

37
00:02:41.680 --> 00:02:46.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm perfectly all right, Thank you very much. That's cool,

38
00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:51.599
<v Speaker 2>said the owl, lazily, Sorry to have bothered you. Who

39
00:02:51.960 --> 00:02:56.800
<v Speaker 2>Hendrix walked away up the branch, leaving Victoria to glare

40
00:02:56.960 --> 00:03:03.240
<v Speaker 2>after him. It's just not fair, she fumed. Everyone thinks

41
00:03:03.280 --> 00:03:07.039
<v Speaker 2>that owl is so special? Just because he wears shades.

42
00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:11.000
<v Speaker 2>Maybe that hedgehog was right. I'll get my own pear.

43
00:03:11.520 --> 00:03:16.599
<v Speaker 2>Then everyone will think I'm cool too. So that afternoon,

44
00:03:16.800 --> 00:03:20.759
<v Speaker 2>Victoria the rabbit hopped through the long grass, wearing her

45
00:03:21.039 --> 00:03:25.439
<v Speaker 2>very own up ahead, she spied a skunk, so she

46
00:03:25.639 --> 00:03:30.479
<v Speaker 2>stopped to casually lean against the stump of an old tree.

47
00:03:30.719 --> 00:03:34.680
<v Speaker 2>Good afternoon, she said, doing her best to look as

48
00:03:34.800 --> 00:03:40.479
<v Speaker 2>cool as possible. What do you think about what? Asked

49
00:03:40.479 --> 00:03:45.479
<v Speaker 2>the skunk, adjusting her route to avoid the rabbit. The sunglasses,

50
00:03:45.520 --> 00:03:50.400
<v Speaker 2>of course, snapped Victoria. What do you think of the sunglasses?

51
00:03:51.879 --> 00:03:55.280
<v Speaker 2>They're all right, I suppose, shrugged the skunk as.

52
00:03:55.159 --> 00:03:56.120
<v Speaker 1>She passed on by.

53
00:03:57.280 --> 00:04:00.599
<v Speaker 2>Not as good as who who Hendrix is? But they're okay,

54
00:04:01.960 --> 00:04:07.319
<v Speaker 2>Not as good, cried Victoria crossly. Of course there is good,

55
00:04:08.159 --> 00:04:12.439
<v Speaker 2>But it was too late. The unimpressed skunk was gone.

56
00:04:13.840 --> 00:04:16.720
<v Speaker 2>Why do all the rotten animals around here think that

57
00:04:16.920 --> 00:04:19.160
<v Speaker 2>awful owl is so wonderful?

58
00:04:19.839 --> 00:04:21.519
<v Speaker 1>The rabbit shrieked to herself.

59
00:04:22.279 --> 00:04:25.879
<v Speaker 2>It can't just be his particular pair of sunglasses, could it,

60
00:04:26.639 --> 00:04:30.279
<v Speaker 2>she thought, trying to work it out. Then she gasped,

61
00:04:30.879 --> 00:04:35.600
<v Speaker 2>they must be magic sunglasses. That's it. That horrible owl

62
00:04:35.720 --> 00:04:40.439
<v Speaker 2>is cheating. At that moment, Victoria the Rabbit made up

63
00:04:40.480 --> 00:04:44.680
<v Speaker 2>her mind she was going to steal who Who Hendricks's

64
00:04:44.759 --> 00:04:49.360
<v Speaker 2>shades and make them her own. That evening was an

65
00:04:49.399 --> 00:04:52.680
<v Speaker 2>exciting one for the animals of the wood. There was

66
00:04:52.680 --> 00:04:55.800
<v Speaker 2>to be a music concert held down by the pond.

67
00:04:56.800 --> 00:05:00.680
<v Speaker 2>McCartney the Frog would be singing songs to the assembled audience,

68
00:05:00.879 --> 00:05:04.120
<v Speaker 2>with creatures gathering to watch as soon as the sun

69
00:05:04.199 --> 00:05:07.720
<v Speaker 2>began to set. By the time the concert was due

70
00:05:07.720 --> 00:05:11.720
<v Speaker 2>to start, the pond's side was packed and it included

71
00:05:11.839 --> 00:05:16.879
<v Speaker 2>one Victoria the Rabbit. On this occasion, because she was

72
00:05:16.959 --> 00:05:21.399
<v Speaker 2>up to no good, Victoria didn't want anyone to notice her.

73
00:05:22.160 --> 00:05:25.480
<v Speaker 2>To pull off her daring theft, she needed to move

74
00:05:25.519 --> 00:05:31.160
<v Speaker 2>about unnoticed, and so she had adopted a disguise. Not

75
00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:35.360
<v Speaker 2>only was she still wearing the sunglasses from earlier, she

76
00:05:35.639 --> 00:05:39.519
<v Speaker 2>also sported a large straw hat to cover her ears.

77
00:05:40.279 --> 00:05:46.560
<v Speaker 2>There was no way anyone would recognize her. Now, excuse me, Victoria,

78
00:05:47.079 --> 00:05:50.160
<v Speaker 2>said a duck, gently pushing past her through the crowd.

79
00:05:51.120 --> 00:05:53.439
<v Speaker 1>A lucky guess, hissed the rabbit.

80
00:05:54.279 --> 00:05:58.480
<v Speaker 2>The problem with wearing sunglasses after the sun had set

81
00:05:58.800 --> 00:06:01.279
<v Speaker 2>was that it was very hard to see where she

82
00:06:01.480 --> 00:06:05.480
<v Speaker 2>was going, and even harder to spot who Who Hendrix,

83
00:06:06.000 --> 00:06:10.079
<v Speaker 2>especially amongst all these animals in the crowd. All she

84
00:06:10.120 --> 00:06:13.720
<v Speaker 2>could do was casually move through it and hope she

85
00:06:13.800 --> 00:06:17.319
<v Speaker 2>caught sight of him. Out on the pond on a

86
00:06:17.360 --> 00:06:22.000
<v Speaker 2>stage of overlapping lily pads, McCartney, the frog was finishing

87
00:06:22.040 --> 00:06:25.680
<v Speaker 2>the first of his songs to loud whistles and clapping.

88
00:06:26.879 --> 00:06:30.879
<v Speaker 2>Thank you all for coming, said the frog happily. Now

89
00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:34.800
<v Speaker 2>for my next song, I have a very special, very

90
00:06:35.079 --> 00:06:39.959
<v Speaker 2>cool guest joining me out on the water. The audience

91
00:06:40.079 --> 00:06:45.199
<v Speaker 2>irrupted with enthusiastic cheers as who Who Hendrix swept down

92
00:06:45.399 --> 00:06:48.759
<v Speaker 2>out of the night sky with a guitar slung across

93
00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:54.199
<v Speaker 2>his body and his sunglasses still in place. Great to

94
00:06:54.279 --> 00:06:58.439
<v Speaker 2>be here, said the owl, still as cool as ever.

95
00:06:59.240 --> 00:07:03.560
<v Speaker 2>Hearing the owl voice, Victoria the rabbit spun in his direction,

96
00:07:04.240 --> 00:07:08.560
<v Speaker 2>although she still couldn't see a thing. Now I've got you,

97
00:07:09.079 --> 00:07:13.920
<v Speaker 2>she grinned, taking a big step forward. Those sunglasses are

98
00:07:14.040 --> 00:07:19.399
<v Speaker 2>going to be mine. Unfortunately, she really couldn't see a thing.

99
00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:23.480
<v Speaker 2>She stepped straight off the pond's edge and landed with

100
00:07:23.560 --> 00:07:29.199
<v Speaker 2>an almighty splash in the murky water. Help, she spluttered

101
00:07:29.240 --> 00:07:35.199
<v Speaker 2>desperately I can't swim, but who who Hendricks was already

102
00:07:35.199 --> 00:07:39.759
<v Speaker 2>in the air, gliding effortlessly over to snatch the soggy

103
00:07:39.920 --> 00:07:43.480
<v Speaker 2>rabbit up in his claws to return her to dry land.

104
00:07:44.600 --> 00:07:48.279
<v Speaker 2>Somebody get this rabbit a towel, said the owl, looking

105
00:07:48.519 --> 00:07:53.040
<v Speaker 2>cooler than ever. Victoria, who had lost both her hat

106
00:07:53.199 --> 00:07:56.319
<v Speaker 2>and her shades in the water, looked at her damp

107
00:07:56.560 --> 00:08:00.720
<v Speaker 2>fur and sobbed. The rest of the concert was a

108
00:08:00.959 --> 00:08:05.279
<v Speaker 2>huge hit, with who Who Hendrick's playing a blistering guitar

109
00:08:05.639 --> 00:08:11.439
<v Speaker 2>set alongside McCartney's superb singing, but there was one member

110
00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:15.720
<v Speaker 2>of the audience who wasn't enjoying it at all. Those

111
00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:21.079
<v Speaker 2>sunglasses must be magic, growled Victoria. How else could that

112
00:08:21.240 --> 00:08:26.360
<v Speaker 2>objectionable owl see what he was doing. She was determined

113
00:08:26.399 --> 00:08:29.360
<v Speaker 2>to lay her paws on them before the night was done,

114
00:08:29.959 --> 00:08:34.159
<v Speaker 2>so she snuck around to the pond's far side and

115
00:08:34.399 --> 00:08:37.960
<v Speaker 2>launched herself on a small wooden boat she found there.

116
00:08:38.840 --> 00:08:43.120
<v Speaker 2>Paddling carefully, she crept up behind the lily pad stage

117
00:08:43.159 --> 00:08:47.240
<v Speaker 2>where the duo were performing their last song. All she

118
00:08:47.320 --> 00:08:51.919
<v Speaker 2>needed to do was climb from the boat to the stage.

119
00:08:51.919 --> 00:08:55.480
<v Speaker 2>Not being a water based animal, this made her nervous

120
00:08:56.080 --> 00:08:59.960
<v Speaker 2>if only this rotten little boat would keep still, she thought,

121
00:09:00.720 --> 00:09:04.159
<v Speaker 2>surely all it needed was one little hop. That's what

122
00:09:04.320 --> 00:09:09.879
<v Speaker 2>rabbits specialized in. So she hopped, but this made the

123
00:09:09.919 --> 00:09:13.960
<v Speaker 2>boat rock even more. Instead of landing on the lily pad,

124
00:09:14.240 --> 00:09:19.519
<v Speaker 2>she plopped into the water in between. Help, she shouted

125
00:09:19.559 --> 00:09:24.879
<v Speaker 2>as she splashed about, I can't swim this time. Who

126
00:09:24.919 --> 00:09:29.720
<v Speaker 2>Who Hendrix was even cooler. He didn't even stop playing

127
00:09:29.759 --> 00:09:32.879
<v Speaker 2>the guitar as he leaned out to pluck the soaking

128
00:09:33.039 --> 00:09:37.919
<v Speaker 2>rabbit up in one foot. Somebody get this rabbit a towel,

129
00:09:38.360 --> 00:09:43.240
<v Speaker 2>said the owl, looking quite possibly the coolest he'd ever been.

130
00:09:44.440 --> 00:09:46.600
<v Speaker 2>The crowd thought this was all part of the show

131
00:09:46.759 --> 00:09:51.039
<v Speaker 2>and began cheering for more so mc cartney, the frog

132
00:09:51.120 --> 00:09:53.120
<v Speaker 2>and who Who Hendrix.

133
00:09:52.720 --> 00:09:54.360
<v Speaker 1>Began an encore.

134
00:09:55.480 --> 00:09:59.879
<v Speaker 2>They were sensational, with the owl even playing the guitar

135
00:10:00.200 --> 00:10:04.440
<v Speaker 2>behind his back. When the concert was over, the stage

136
00:10:04.559 --> 00:10:08.000
<v Speaker 2>floated to the pond side to allow who Who Hendrix

137
00:10:08.080 --> 00:10:13.000
<v Speaker 2>and McCartney to mix with the adoring fans. No sooner

138
00:10:13.039 --> 00:10:16.080
<v Speaker 2>had they set foot upon the grass when a crazed

139
00:10:16.200 --> 00:10:20.519
<v Speaker 2>rabbit burst forth and tried to snatch the sunglasses from

140
00:10:20.519 --> 00:10:25.519
<v Speaker 2>the owl's face. Being as cool as he was who who?

141
00:10:25.559 --> 00:10:30.559
<v Speaker 2>Hendrix simply stepped casually aside, leaving the screaming rabbit to

142
00:10:30.639 --> 00:10:32.600
<v Speaker 2>take a plunge into the pond.

143
00:10:33.840 --> 00:10:36.240
<v Speaker 1>Somebody get this rabbit a towel.

144
00:10:36.320 --> 00:10:40.240
<v Speaker 2>Said the owl as he hooked the half drowned Victoria out.

145
00:10:40.960 --> 00:10:44.360
<v Speaker 2>A pair of paramedic foxes swept the rabbit away to

146
00:10:44.440 --> 00:10:47.279
<v Speaker 2>the medical tent, where they helped her cough up the

147
00:10:47.320 --> 00:10:51.039
<v Speaker 2>water she'd swallowed and dried her in a big blanket.

148
00:10:51.879 --> 00:10:56.759
<v Speaker 2>Feeling utterly miserable, Victoria could only sulk.

149
00:10:57.279 --> 00:10:58.679
<v Speaker 1>Woods with all the swimmen.

150
00:10:59.240 --> 00:11:04.639
<v Speaker 2>Asked who who Hendrix appearing beside her, You bother, some bird,

151
00:11:05.120 --> 00:11:12.519
<v Speaker 2>snapped Victoria crossly. I was trying to get your sickening sunglasses. These,
