[Music]
oh come with me to the rolling sea while
the weather's calm and still
and we'll have some fun and laughter
with the adventures of portland
one lovely sunny seaside day
we were getting ready for a visit from
the lighthouse inspector
oh
what a lovely day for an inspection
yes nothing but the cry of the ghouls
and the laughing of the waves it's so
peaceful
[Music]
that was a close one i thought he was
going to give us a tune
we don't want to frighten the fish do we
[Music]
no it's not
it's a penguin
passing by on his way home to the ice
floes oh the penguin oh great i can
write about it in my bird watchers
notebook
i wonder if it'll come any nearer
blistering barnacles i hope not
just let it swim by and whatever you do
don't feed it
i'm off to the mainland to fetch the
inspector forget about that penguin and
get everything ready for inspection come
on tiger oh hey i said i said hi sir bye
bill
well the lads soon had the lighthouse
looking spit and spun
and decided to have their relevances
outside so they could watch the penguin
he's a cheeky chappie i wonder if he'd
like a taste of my biscuit uh no no ross
i must have feed it remember what bill
said
don't feed the penguin ah what possible
harm could one little biscuit do
here we are
once you get the dots
[Music]
those lads always have to learn the hard
way
phew
that was a close one
ross i'm afraid they've beaten us to it
why you little
well that was a shock for the lads those
penguins were everywhere
[Music]
what are we gonna do
inspectors do any minute
listen
i've got an idea
[Music]
[Music]
well those penguins didn't like comedies
playing either the noise from those
bagpipes drove them down the stairs and
right out of the door
come on how'd you go no
because at that moment i arrived back
with the inspector
well this is a fine welcome
uh just driving the penguins away aren't
we ross
ross
yeah it's a sense of humor too
well i could say i'm going to enjoy this
inspection hmm
have you another set of pipes i play as
well you know
[Music]
yeah only i could have some peace and
quiet
well it's either bagpipes or the
penguins i did warn you ross not to feed
him
yes
you were right phil
[Music]
[Music]
what's happening at the lighthouse
they're singing a song
when the wind blows in of the salty sea
come dance a jig to a sea shanty it
feels so right it feels so great to be a
lighthouse keeper
yo h* h* see the big ships go across the
rolling street
sunshine or wind or rain or fog write it
down in a daily log with a cup of tea
it's warm and snug to be a light
housekeeper
yoho h* see the big ships go across the
rolling sea
[Music]
why was the lobster arrested
oh i don't know why was the lobster
arrested
because it was always pinching things
[Music]
see the big ships go across the rolling
sea
and way up here where the lamp burns
bright on top of the world by day you're
a night with a telescope you feel just
right when you're a lighthouse keeper
[Music]
i can't wait to tell you my next story
this is the village of mcgilly cuddy and
here's the village's only shop eddie
stone's emporium sells everything from
tomatoes to tricycles well it usually
does
today something special has happened
it's stock taking day
now let's see
biscuits
tins on sorted five yes a roll of tartan
yes
uh one dozen light bulbs
yes
two dozen tulip
oh
oh dear
now was it
one doesn't like bulbs or two dozen
tulip bulbs or
two dozen light bulbs and one dozen
tunic bombs
morning eddie my goodness you're all
right
oh yeah yes yes sir uh perfectly all
right thank you i'm i'm uh in the middle
of my annual stock taking
and i can't quite remember where
everything is
and that's all
oh uh can i help you
well i came in to buy a dozen eggs but
if you'd rather i came back later
oh no no no no not at all edward stone's
emporium at your service oh no um where
did i put that tea ah oh yes
oh dear
now my filing system's scrambled and
i'll never get this lot sorted out
scrambled eh
that gives me an idea eddie
you must have a stop taking sale sell
everything and you won't need to worry
about stop taking any more
oh it's a good idea
but i'll need to put up posters and get
in extra staff and don't worry just sit
down and have a rest and leave the rest
to me
that's when i came in on the scene
i was on the mainland taking dogger for
his daily walk
when miss shannon asked me to help
i couldn't refuse could i
so we formed a queue outside eddie's
shop and waited
and it wasn't long before everyone
wanted to join in
what we queuing for bill
hey i'm george pastner it's eddie's
stone super scramble stop taking sail
there'll be lots of bargains oh any
stone super scramble stop taking sale
eddie
[Music]
shannon's idea worked in a few minutes
the queue of customers waiting for eddie
stone's super scramble stop taking sail
stretched out right along the keys line
[Music]
the crew of the offshore oil rig heard
about eddie's super scramble sale and
wanted to join in
[Music]
um what's that two turkeys and a teapot
yes i think so
yeah nutty biscuits coffee biscuits and
dog biscuits
that's all we have i'm afraid
box of fruit and a fire extinguisher
did you say
five sacks of potatoes
[Music]
oh what a marvelous idea we've sold
everything in the shop but for this one
otk
here you are dogger i suppose you've
earned it
what's wrong eddie
you've sold everything in the shop so
you don't have to do any more
stock-taking
why are you looking so miserable
i'm not miserable doorbell
it's just that now everything in the
shop has been sold
there's nothing left for my team oh yes
there is eddie
you're treading on those eggs i wanted
when i came in
now we can all have scrambled eggs for
tea
you mean super sale scrambled eggs
oh come with me to the rolling sea while
the weather's calm and still
and we'll have some fun and laughter
with the adventures of portland bill
