The nastiest nanny in the world

Is she really as bad as all that

Poor daddy. Ever since he stopped working, he just sits and mopes… Mary Poppins used to say that he needed our help, but now it’s too late.

Answer 11

Oh, I wouldn’t say that. I tell you what: why don’t we start things off with a bit of a shake for good luck?

Question 13

(MICHAEL)
I’ve always wanted to fly one with daddy

Answer 13

(crouches before Michael, speaking gently)
O’course you have. But you need to know how it’s done. Get some training in, and you’ll make him the proudest father in the whole bloomin’ empire!

Welcome, Mary. You’re a sight for sore eyes.

Question 15

(JANE)
Bert! What are you doing up here?

And where else should a chimney sweep be?

Question 16

(JANE)
Not us, so much, but our troubles. They seem so big down in the nursery, but up here…

That’s more like it. Troubles are never so bad when you look at them from a little higher up.

Quite sure. So we’d better make some plans.

Well, I never. So that’s where I put them.

Answer 17

What are they?

Question 18

Gingerbread stars I hid once from my nanny. I used to dream that when I grew up I’d learn everything there was to know about the stars. Funny, I haven’t thought about all that in years. I’m not usually sentimental.

S’good to look back sometimes
