this
is the story of fanny who was
beautifully talented
yet woefully unpunctual and even a bit
conceited
how do you think you're calling
unpunctual and conceited
i don't like this well fanny
weren't you supposed to meet your father
at town hall half an hour ago
that's okay he'll wait not many dads
have a daughter
like me the greatest singer in the
entire state
why even the prince has invited me to
sing
at the palace and you say you are not
conceited
not at all go away let me get dressed
well viewers this is fanny
perhaps it is best to leave her for now
and go to meet her father
mr emerson where is ms emerson
she was supposed to be here at least 30
minutes ago
the governor has arrived i am afraid if
she is not here
we shall have to begin without her
opening song
and that will upset everything
oh mr brooks i am sure she is on her way
you should have sent her the coach
earlier well i did
now we're back come on fanny
come on
oh father i am so sorry
fanny look at the time i am so sorry
is the governor here how dreadful of me
to be so late
i do hope i make you proud tonight
father
well of course you will my darling like
always come
as always fanny sung beautifully
everyone was praising her and gloating
over her beautiful talent
she was quite the star and as she was
coming out
a person met her
[Music]
hello ms emerson we are from the help
children foundation
and we want to do a charity event and we
would love for you to sing for it
can we maybe meet and discuss well
i'm so tired right now
well tomorrow she is performing at the
palace and
her godmother is coming to see her would
you come over
the date after tomorrow at 2 p.m
oh certainly sir thank you so much
it was true the following day fanny's
godmother
fairy prompt was coming to lunch with
fanny
now she was called fairy prompt because
she was a stickler for time
so if she said she'd arrive at 12 she
would arrive not 10 minutes late
not 10 minutes early but exactly on the
dot
at 12 so at 12 sharp fairy prompt rung
the bell
at fannie's home oh
hello ma'am do come in i
expected fanny to open the door where is
she
she's not in but i am certain she is on
her way
so make yourself comfortable but of
course
fanny was not there she was at a
friend's place trying out the friend's
new dresses and having a wonderful time
by the time she came home it was two
o'clock
god mother i am so
so so sorry to be late
never mind i fell asleep waiting for you
and the rest
did me good but now i am famished
of course do come please let's eat
they had an elaborate four course lunch
and relaxed in the lounge with cups of
coffee
when fanny's father walked in in a huff
oh goodness fanny why aren't you
ready for where father
you will make me lose face so badly
today
don't you remember we were supposed to
be at the palace by four o'clock
and it is already time i told you to be
ready by three
now we will never make it on time
oh no she forgot because she was
spending time with
me give me a second
[Music]
ah bear doesn't she look dazzling
go on dear but just a moment
take this what's that
my gift for my god daughter this is a
watch it will help you keep
time for all your appointments now go
and be sure to be back by 10. you're not
old enough yet to be out
later than that
[Music]
sure godmother thank you so much
and fanny performed brilliantly the
prince and all the royal guests
regaled at the beautiful voice fanny had
the clock struck ten and the moment it
did
the watch around fanny's neck started
ticking frantically
oh uh i must take your leave your hannus
and fanny had to leave on time her
father was so proud of her that as they
were traveling home in the carriage
he made her a promise darling
i am so proud of you that i want to buy
for you that emerald bracelet you have
been wanting
oh thank you daddy
then that is settled tomorrow we shall
go
shopping first we will go to the
jewelers at 10 o'clock
am then we will go to the boutique at 11
a.m
where you can get yourself a few brand
new dresses
and then at 12. we will have lunch at
true bath
you have a meeting at two for the
charity event right
and then at seven your performance at
the grand auditorium with dinner to
follow
and by ten we have to reach the station
your grandmother is coming remember
she will be so happy if you go to the
station to receive her
oh yes daddy i can't wait for tomorrow
to begin
so the next morning they reached the
jewelers
at ten once there fannie was so taken in
with all the diamonds and rubies and
gems that she thought she could spend
the entire day there
but the watch would not allow it at 11
the watch started ticking
thunder uh will you please take this
watch out of the shop
uh well all right
hey mr emerson what kind of a sound is
that
what an atrocious sound
i stand to be in here
benny take your watch back and please
let's leave
uh fine let's just live
so although she did not want to fanny
had to keep her appointments in the
morning
but when she got home she put the watch
in the attic
and laid herself for an afternoon of
rest
if anyone comes calling on me tell them
i am rustin
and i will not be able to see them
[Music]
at two o'clock the people from the
children's charity foundation
rung the bell
we are here to see ms emerson
well she is resting she won't be able to
see
what is this is this the watch
what is happening something is banging
against the roof
are the people from the charity here
just just tell them i will see them in a
minute
and fanny had to meet them but she was
not happy
she was determined to get rid of the
watch so that night on the way
to her performance at the grand
auditorium she had the carriage stopped
and threw the watch in a ditch a long
long way from the auditorium she
sang beautifully again and everyone
praised her
you are a nightingale my dear do you
join us for dinner
penny it is about to be 10. we must
leave for the station
please father let the driver go to get
granny
i want to stay here a bit longer
what is that a thunderstorm at this time
of the year
is it the watch uh
i think so come on father
[Music]
and fanny went to the ditch as fast as
she could where she had thrown the watch
and removed it from there she took a
rock
and was just about to smash the watch to
pieces when
her godmother appeared before her and
the thunderstorm stopped try
as you might darling you cannot get rid
of the watch your only hope is to keep
the watch from embarrassing you
is to respect time and fulfill all your
promises like a mature
dependable person should
oh godmother i'm sorry
[Music]
now go your grandma must be waiting
yes
[Music]
fanny went to the station and her
grandmother was very happy to see her
she was so happy that she had tears in
her
eyes my darling i am so glad that you
came to receive me
see she would have been so disappointed
had you not come
i know father i'm glad i did
danny hey fanny do you agree with me now
you have been unpunctual and conceited
fine you were right about me
sorry well guess what
fanny you are becoming a better person
so
as a reward i'll give you a happy ending
and so viewers slowly
as the watch forced her to keep her
promises
fannie began to realize the joy of doing
her duties well
and on time when she fulfilled her
promises
everyone was happy and seeing them happy
she felt far more wonderful than she had
ever felt
by being unpunctual and conceited
and then the watch never had to tick to
force fanny to be on time
