Whose family are we going to meet today?
It's Iona and Elba's.
Iona is seven
and Elba is four.
They live with their mum and dad
in a large town.
I wonder what they're up to today.
Iona and Elba
have a lovely day planned.
They'll be visiting their Nanny Pip and Gramps.
And Mum has a really good idea.
They're going to make bird feeders as a present.
What have we got? Have a look.
Is this a pumpkin seed? That is a pumpkin seed. And is this sunflower?
It is!
Mum's got lots of ingredients that birds like. Do you like raisins?
Yes.
You cheeky monkeys!
More like cheeky birds!
Now, this is called lard and the lard is going to act like our glue.
What does glue do?
Stick together! Stick together.
Iona, you're going to be our chief mixer and, Elba,
can you tip in the seeds?
Iona mashes up the lard and Elba pours in the seeds.
Whoa! Loads of seeds!
Mush the birds...
Is it acting like glue? Yes!
Oh, mixing it for me.
Can I put the raisins now?
The raisins will be a fruity treat.
In a minute, I think we might have to use something else to mix. Hands!
Oh!
Eurgh!
Very greasy, isn't it?
Yeah, very greasy. You're doing a great job...
I hope no birds come and land on my hands.
That looks nice!
We need to put our mixture on some pine cones,
so the birds have got somewhere to land and to eat.
You're going to use your hands.
I'm not going to get messy, I'm just going to do the messy job.
I'm the messy monster in the house! You sure are.
The mixture gets pressed into all the gaps on the cone.
Do you think that one's ready?
Yep! Ah!
I think the birds will love it!
Ooh!
Great work! Oh, perfect!
The bird feeders are all ready to take to Nanny Pip's garden.
Iona and Elba have arrived at Nanny Pip and Gramps' house.
OK, Elba. Knock on the door. Can you reach?
Hello! Hi! Have you got cold ears?
Oh, my goodness! What is that? Is that my pudding?
No, they're bird feeders for the birds.
Shall we go and try and find some trees to hang them in? Yeah.
Good idea, Nanny Pip. The birds will like that.
Come with me! OK, where are you going first? Here!
This way?
This one. OK. If you think you can reach up to here, if I lift you?
See if we can get it over this branch. You ready? Two, three...
Put the string over.
Have you got it?
Good job! Shall I tie it? Yeah.
Do it nice and tight, Nanny Pip. Two knots!
Oh! Do you think that's enough?
Iona has found a good tree for her bird feeder.
This bird feeder, cos the birds will see it and have a scrumptious meal.
What bird could want more?
Birds can be shy, so they're going inside to watch from the window.
Let's sit and see if we can see them come in.
We have to be very still and very quiet though.
Otherwise it frightens them and they don't come in.
Gramps is keeping a careful look out.
Do you think maybe if you cheep and tweet, they'll come closer?
Tweet-tweet, tweet-tweet.
I think they heard you tweeting. Tweet-tweet, tweet-tweet.
Oh! I see some birds!
Look, a bird in the tree!
Oh, is he coming in? Look, there he goes.
I can't see.
If we stay very still, they'll come in and get some food.
The birds haven't spotted the feeders just yet. Keep watching.
Oh, is that a pigeon? There's another pigeon.
This grey tit is peeking at the feeder.
And the jackdaws are looking too.
I see a little one! Me too! Tweet-tweet, tweet-tweet.
I think the birds will enjoy their new bird buffet.
Tweet-tweet, tweet-tweet.
Back home, Iona, Elba and Teddy
are preparing for a journey.
There's her outfit, Iona!
Wow! Special clothes!
Their suit is on. We can put the helmet on.
Space Bear has never been on a space mission before.
Now it looks like she's all ready.
They're going to travel into space. Elba has a space suit too.
They're my gloves. My helmet. Put your hands in.
Can you find where it goes?
We just zip it up. There and now... And my helmet.
There! Space girl Elba is ready to play.
Whoa!
Hey, Space Girl!
Look at you!
You can meet your alien!
Good idea. Turn Mum and Dad into aliens with things from the kitchen.
These will make excellent helmets.
It feels like we're making presents.
Shall I try it on? Yeah.
Don't forget Alien Dad.
Wahey!
What else do aliens need?
These could be the eyes. Stick it up like that. Eyes! Good idea!
Do you want more eyes?
More eyes!
Oh, this looks amazing! This alien sees everything.
Eye...think that's enough eyes!
Na-na! Wow! That's a crazy alien!
Aliens come in all different colours.
Green for Mum.
That's nice!
How about red cheeks for Dad? And the other one.
This is red.
Red lips.
On your moustache, on your beard. Mm-hm.
It looks like I'm going to be a very colourful alien.
Perfect! Perfecto!
Oh-oh-oh! There, you're finished!
Everyone is ready for an epic space adventure.
Can I see in the mirror? Oh, my goodness!
This is Mission Control.
Space Bear's rocket is lost in space.
We need two brave astronauts to find it.
Come on, Elba? Let's build our rocket.
What shall we make our rocket out of? Maybe these chairs.
Yeah. And we need these ones.
First job, build their own rocket.
I think that's our rocket done.
Rocket ready... Stand by to launch!
OK, ready? Five, four,
three, two, one...
Blast off! Blast off!
Space Bear, hold on!
Oh, yes. Your seat belt, remember?
This is Mission Control.
Report, please.
I think I see the moon.
I see Mars. Wow, Mars! That's cool!
Prepare for landing on Mars.
OK.
We're going to land!
Duck!
Let's get out.
Don't forget Space Bear.
Will they find Space Bear's rocket?
This looks like Mars over here. We're out!
This is very bouncy on Mars.
Look! I think I see some aliens.
Me too.
Strange Martian life forms approaching!
Bleep-bleep-bleep! Hello, aliens!
Kwark-kwark. Bleep-bleep.
I am Space Agent Iona. Bleep-bleep-bleep.
And I'm Space Girl Elba.
Waga-wag, kwark-kwark.
And this is Space Bear. Kwark-kwark. Bleep-bleep.
Have you seen Space Bear's rocket? Do you know where it is?
Bleep-bleep-bleep. I think that was "yes".
Bleep-bleep. Is it up high, or is it down low?
Bleep-bleep-bleep!
So it's up high. Bleep-bleep-bleep! This way? Bleep-bleep.
OK, thank you.
I think I see something. I think I see it in the tree! Me too!
Shall I help you get it out? Yes, thank you.
Bleep-bleep-bleep-bleep!
Kwark-kwark. Bleep-bleep-bleep.
Now Space Bear can fly home! Bleep-bleep-bleep.
Bye! Bye!
Bye, Martian friends.
Ready? Set, whoosh!
What an out of this world adventure!
I wonder who we're going to meet next time on Our Family.
