1
00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:12,000
Speaker 1: Welcome, sleep tight stories.

2
00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 2: East of the Sun, west of the moon, Long ago,

3
00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:38,839
Speaker 2: and far away, in a land of trolls and magic,

4
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 2: there lived a poor farmer.

5
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:48,120
Speaker 1: His house was falling down, his family were in rags,

6
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:54,800
Speaker 1: and his money was almost gone. Now winter was coming on.

7
00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 1: Listen to the wind and the rain. The farmer wailed,

8
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:05,080
Speaker 1: What can I do? Won't somebody please help me? Tap

9
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:10,480
Speaker 1: tap tap. There at the farmhouse door stood a big

10
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:12,440
Speaker 1: white bear.

11
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 2: I'm lonely.

12
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:19,960
Speaker 1: The bear said, lend me Astrid, your daughter, and I

13
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:25,960
Speaker 1: will make you and your family rich. Rich, said the farmer,

14
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: Very rich, said the bear. I will look after her well.

15
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 1: I promise, tell me on Thursday if you agree. Well,

16
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:43,200
Speaker 1: the family was so poor they had to agree. On Thursday,

17
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:48,400
Speaker 1: Astrid found herself clinging to the bear stiff white fur,

18
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 1: as he padded away from the farmhouse. All day long

19
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 1: they traveled. Then, as night fell, they came to a

20
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 1: steep cliff, or was it the wall of a castle.

21
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:10,240
Speaker 1: Soon they were in a splendid hall made of the

22
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 1: finest gold and silver. Take this bell, Astrid, said the bear.

23
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:24,360
Speaker 1: If there is anything you want, just ring it. All

24
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 1: I want is a soft bed and sweet dreams. Astred yawned.

25
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 1: That night, she dreamed of a handsome, young prince who

26
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 1: sat beside her bed while she slept. The same thing

27
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 1: happened the next night and the night after that. All

28
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:50,919
Speaker 1: day long, Astred rang the bell for anything she wanted,

29
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:56,080
Speaker 1: and all night long, the prince sat beside her in

30
00:02:56,160 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 1: her dreams. On the fourth day eh Astrid sent for

31
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:07,239
Speaker 1: the bear. I'm homesick, she told him. I want to

32
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:13,400
Speaker 1: see my family. Will you promise to come back? Said

33
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 1: the bear? And will you promise not to share any

34
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:22,120
Speaker 1: secrets with your mother? I promise, bear, So the bear

35
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 1: took Astrid home. Astrid's first promise was easy. Her family

36
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 1: was now rich and happy, so she knew she must

37
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:41,160
Speaker 1: stay with the bear. Her second promise was harder. In

38
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 1: a land of trolls and magic, a girl can't help

39
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 1: sharing secrets with her mother. I dreamed of a prince

40
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 1: every night, said Astrid. Or was he real all along? Ah?

41
00:03:56,520 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 1: Her mother smiled. Next time, like this magic candle, but

42
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 1: don't spill any magic wax on him. I won't, Astred laughed.

43
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 1: Astred loved the visit to her family, but now she

44
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,479
Speaker 1: had a plan. She was keen to get back to

45
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 1: the castle. That night, at the Gold and Silver Castle,

46
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:28,480
Speaker 1: Astrid went to bed very early. She kept her eyes

47
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:32,679
Speaker 1: shut tight until she heard someone sit beside her bed.

48
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 1: Then she lit the magic candle much too quickly. The

49
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 1: prince was real, all right, as real as the three

50
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:51,040
Speaker 1: drops of magic wax Astrod had spilled on his shirt. Oh, Astrid,

51
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 1: he groaned, what have you done? A troll called Long

52
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 1: Nose put a spell on me. By day I am

53
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 1: a white bear, and by night a royal prince. Now

54
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 1: you have spilled some magic. The spell cannot be broken.

55
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 1: I will have to marry Long Knows. How can I

56
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 1: save you? Astrid sobbed. You can't, said the prince. Sadly,

57
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 1: Long Nose will lock me in her castle until our

58
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 1: wedding day. It lies east of the sun and west

59
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:31,720
Speaker 1: of the moon, so nobody can find me. I can

60
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 1: still try, said Astrid. Next morning, the prince and the

61
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:43,240
Speaker 1: castle had vanished, so had all of Astrid's fine clothed.

62
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 1: Dressed in her old rags, she set off at once,

63
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 1: east of the sun and west of the moon. She said,

64
00:05:54,920 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 1: somebody must know where Long Nose lives. She walked and

65
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 1: walked and walked. At last, on top of the high mountain,

66
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 1: she met an old hag. I've never heard of long nose.

67
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 1: The old hag said, you'd better ask my big sister

68
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 1: who lives on the next mountain. Here. Take this golden

69
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:26,559
Speaker 1: apple to bring you good luck. Thank you, Astrid said.

70
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:33,000
Speaker 1: The old hag's sister was no help at all. I've

71
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 1: never heard of long nose, she said, you'd better ask

72
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 1: my other sister, who lives on the next mountain. Here.

73
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:44,159
Speaker 1: Take this golden comb to bring you lock. Thank you,

74
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:49,320
Speaker 1: Astrid said. But the third old hag shook her head

75
00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:53,720
Speaker 1: as well. I've never heard of long nose, she said.

76
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 1: My sisters were silly to send you here. Take this

77
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:02,599
Speaker 1: golden spinning wheel to bring you good luck. Thank you,

78
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 1: Astrid said. Now she was all alone again, with a

79
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 1: golden apple, a golden comb, and a golden spinning wheel

80
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 1: to carry East of the sun and west of the moon,

81
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 1: Astred cried, does nobody know where I can find long nose?

82
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:26,240
Speaker 2: I do.

83
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:30,600
Speaker 1: It's the east wind. Can you take me there, sir,

84
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 1: Astrid asked eagerly, Only if my brothers help me. Astrid.

85
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 1: The west wind, the south wind, and the north wind, please,

86
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 1: Astred begged. So the east wind swept her into the air.

87
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 1: She flew from wind to wind, east to west to

88
00:07:54,880 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 1: south to north, over hills and seas and forests. Then

89
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:09,040
Speaker 1: the north wind set her down. Thank you, winds, said Astrid.

90
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 1: But where is it You've lifted me east of the

91
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 1: sun and west of the moon. The north wind smiled.

92
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 1: This is where long Nose lives. Goodbye, waved Astrid as

93
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:31,560
Speaker 1: he gusted off. Astrid was standing by the biggest and

94
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 1: gloomiest castle she had ever seen. Long Nose was looking

95
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 1: down from a high window. Hello, Astrid, she cackled, Are

96
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:48,240
Speaker 1: you looking for the prince? Give me the golden apple

97
00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:53,040
Speaker 1: and I will let you see him. Take it, said Astrid. Quickly.

98
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:58,720
Speaker 1: Inside the castle, she found the magic Prince in a deep,

99
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 1: deep slip. He was holding an empty silver cup. Was

100
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 1: that a magic drink? Astred wondered. If it was, I'll

101
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:16,160
Speaker 1: never wake him. The prince slept all night long. The

102
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:21,600
Speaker 1: next day, Astred offered Long Nose the golden comb. It'll

103
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 1: be yours forever, she said, If you will let me

104
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 1: visit the prince again, why not, sniffed Long Nose. I

105
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:34,440
Speaker 1: shall keep him fast asleep until our wedding day. So

106
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:40,240
Speaker 1: it was a magic drink in the silver cup. That night,

107
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 1: while the Prince dozed, Astrid made a tiny hole in

108
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 1: the cup. This time, I want to spill some magic,

109
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:54,679
Speaker 1: she said. It's the only way to wake him. Long

110
00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 1: Nose is so greedy. I will give her the spinning

111
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:03,960
Speaker 1: wheel or one last visit. Long Nose agreed. At once.

112
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 1: What do I care, she said, Tomorrow the Prince and

113
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:15,640
Speaker 1: I will be married. At bedtime, Long Nose didn't spot

114
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:20,679
Speaker 1: the tiny hole as she filled the silver cup, nor

115
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:27,200
Speaker 1: did she spot the magic drink linking out. Later, after

116
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:31,680
Speaker 1: Long Nose had gone, it was easy for Astrid to

117
00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:37,320
Speaker 1: wake the Prince. Astrid. The prince exclaimed, Have you come

118
00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 1: to save me? If I can? Astrid said, but how

119
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 1: do we get rid of long Nose With a test

120
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 1: of true love, said the prince. The winner will be

121
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,720
Speaker 1: the one who can clean the magic wax from my shirt.

122
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:58,440
Speaker 1: That's the person I will marry. At first, Long Nose

123
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 1: was very cross, but she was far too proud to

124
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 1: say no to the test. Anybody can wash a shirt,

125
00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,480
Speaker 1: she sneered. Bring me a tub, some soap, and a

126
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:17,440
Speaker 1: scrubbing brush. Long Nose had spoken much too soon. The

127
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 1: harder she scrubbed the blacker the shirt became In the end,

128
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:28,520
Speaker 1: she screeched, help me, trolls. Every troll in the castle

129
00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 1: came running, but the shirt got blacker and blacker. Stop scrubbing.

130
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 1: Long Nose yelled, let Astra try. How can a girl

131
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:44,839
Speaker 1: like her be trolls like us with true love. That's

132
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:50,880
Speaker 1: how Astrad dipped the prince's shirt in some cool clear water.

133
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 1: Instantly it was as white as snow Again. Long Nose

134
00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:03,040
Speaker 1: and her team of troll were beaten. They were never

135
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:08,760
Speaker 1: seen again, not even East of the Sun and west

136
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:13,840
Speaker 1: of the moon. Everyone else was invited to the royal

137
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 1: wedding family friends, the Three Hags and the Four Winds

138
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 1: as well. Afterwards, the gold and Silver Castle appeared again,

139
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 1: and Astrid and her prince went back to their home.

140
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 1: There they lived happily ever after.

141
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:10,160
Speaker 2: A n
