  • 0:01 - 0:03
    [ Yelling ] A witch!
  • 0:05 - 0:07
    >> We have found a
    witch. May we burn her?
  • 0:08 - 0:10
    [ Yelling ]
  • 0:10 - 0:12
    >> How do you know
    she is a witch?
  • 0:12 - 0:13
    >> She looks like one.
  • 0:13 - 0:15
    [ Yelling ]
  • 0:15 - 0:16
    >> [Inaudible] forward.
  • 0:17 - 0:18
    >> I'm not a witch.
  • 0:18 - 0:19
    I'm not a witch.
  • 0:19 - 0:22
    >> But you are dressed as one.
  • 0:22 - 0:23
    >> They dressed me up like this.
  • 0:23 - 0:25
    [ Yelling ]
  • 0:25 - 0:26
    And this isn't my nose.
  • 0:26 - 0:27
    It's a false one.
  • 0:28 - 0:31
    [ Animal Sounds ]
  • 0:31 - 0:33
    >> Well, we did do the nose.
  • 0:33 - 0:35
    >> The nose?
  • 0:35 - 0:35
    >> And the hat.
  • 0:35 - 0:36
    >> But she's a witch.
  • 0:38 - 0:41
    [ Yelling ]
  • 0:41 - 0:42
    >> Did you dress
    her up like this?
  • 0:42 - 0:42
    >> No.
  • 0:42 - 0:44
    [ Yelling ]
  • 0:44 - 0:45
    >> Yes. Yes.
  • 0:45 - 0:45
    >> Yes.
  • 0:45 - 0:46
    >> A bit [multiple speakers].
  • 0:46 - 0:48
    A bit. She has got a wart.
  • 0:49 - 0:51
    >> What makes you
    think she is a witch?
  • 0:51 - 0:55
    >> Well, she turned
    me into a newt.
  • 0:55 - 0:55
    >> A newt?
  • 0:59 - 1:01
    >> I got better.
  • 1:02 - 1:07
    Burn her! [ Yelling ]
  • 1:08 - 1:08
    >> Quiet. Quiet.
  • 1:09 - 1:12
    Quiet. There are ways of
    telling whether she is a witch.
  • 1:12 - 1:16
    >> I don't know [multiple
    speakers].
  • 1:16 - 1:19
    >> Tell me, what do
    you do with witches?
  • 1:20 - 1:23
    Burn her! [ Yelling ]
  • 1:23 - 1:25
    And what do you burn
    apart from witches?
  • 1:25 - 1:27
    >> More witches.
  • 1:27 - 1:27
    >> Shh.
  • 1:27 - 1:27
    >> Wood?
  • 1:28 - 1:31
    >> So why do witches burn?
  • 1:32 - 1:42
    [ Silence ]
  • 1:42 - 1:45
    >> Because they're made of... wood.
  • 1:45 - 1:46
    >> Good.
  • 1:46 - 1:46
    >> Oh yeah.
  • 1:46 - 1:49
    >> So, how do we tell
    whether she is made of wood?
  • 1:50 - 1:52
    >> Build a bridge out of her.
  • 1:52 - 1:55
    >> Ah, but can you not also
    make bridges out of stone?
  • 1:55 - 1:55
    >> Oh yeah.
  • 1:56 - 1:57
    >> Oh yeah, true.
  • 1:58 - 2:01
    >> But does wood sink in water?
  • 2:01 - 2:01
    >> No. No.
  • 2:01 - 2:02
    It floats.
  • 2:03 - 2:03
    It floats.
  • 2:03 - 2:04
    >> Throw her into the pond.
  • 2:05 - 2:08
    [ Yelling ]
  • 2:08 - 2:10
    >> What also floats in water?
  • 2:10 - 2:12
    >> Bread, apples.
  • 2:12 - 2:14
    >> Very small rocks.
  • 2:15 - 2:18
    >> Cider. Great gravy.
  • 2:18 - 2:18
    Cherries [multiple speakers].
  • 2:18 - 2:19
    Lead. Lead.
  • 2:20 - 2:21
    >> A duck.
  • 2:22 - 2:23
    >> Exactly.
  • 2:25 - 2:34
    So logically if she
    weighs the same as a duck?
  • 2:34 - 2:35
    >> She's made of wood.
  • 2:36 - 2:37
    >> And therefore?
  • 2:37 - 2:39
    >> A witch.
  • 2:39 - 2:40
    >> A witch.
  • 2:41 - 2:46
    [ Yelling ]
  • 2:46 - 2:48
    >> We should use
    my largest scales.
  • 2:49 - 3:07
    [ Yelling ]
  • 3:07 - 3:07
    >> All right.
  • 3:07 - 3:10
    Remove the supports.
  • 3:12 - 3:15
    [ Banging Noise ]
  • 3:15 - 3:17
    [ Yelling ]
  • 3:17 - 3:18
    >> It's a [inaudible].
