what have I let myself in for?

a little more pomp and circumstance and who

knows perhaps there'll be one to whom you

can give your heart.

will you dance with your lady Caroline?

alas not done sir.

yes how stupid of me.

I was forgetting.

not in 20 years!

I'll be sold out.

my choice is for caves.

sold out?

what do you mean you ridiculous man?

how can you be sold out when we

have not purchased anything?

the ball gracious lady.

I'd scarcely opened my doors this morning when

they descended.

who who descended?

everybody milady.

they came like the heron to the pool

taking everything I had.

I've never heard of such a thing.

you my good man should learn to distinguish

between riffraff and people of consequence like us.

what shall we do?

coachman drive us home.

girls do stop pulling those dreadful faces.

I'm in a Cinderella!

Cinderella!

where is that wretched girl?

why do you not come when I call

you?

come over here.

I have a job for you to do.

take these unpick them and make three splendid

new dresses out of them.

oh mama you're so clever.

make sure they fit to perfection.

now start immediately.

there is not a moment to lose.

be sure your hands are clean before you

start sewing.

and wait to look as pretty as possible.

well as pretty as we are.

we must all be utterly splendid.

so run along child.

start at once.

utterly splendid.

but already his heart was...

oh Henrietta do stop grumbling.

his heart was burning with love.

as if it had been made on red

hot coals.

you like that?

so do I.

sit down dear.

don't do that.

at this point Scheherazade saw the approach of

morning and fell silent.

as well she might.

now look what you've done.

set your friends off.

I suppose you want feeding.

no rest.

no peace.

well see if you like this.

who for?

Hamsel?

Gretel?

is that the wrong way round?

who's that?

oh it's you is it?

don't wipe your paws will you?

I've got nobody to help me clean you

know.

I have to do it all myself.

do you realize that tiresome Scheherazade is barely

halfway through her thousand and one nights?

I have to think of another 496 tales

before she's safe.

my diary is chock-a-block.

look Wednesday a sea journey to take care

of the little mermaid.

Friday the ugly ducklings due to hatch.

well I have to be back for that.

oh do be quiet Henrietta.

I can't think.

now what's that?

ah a new key cut for Pandora's box.

it's all very well for Hans Christian Andersen

to say his life is a fairy story.

mine isn't.

nothing but one long slog.

I can do all manner of things for

other people but never anything for myself.

watch.

you'd like a bone.

simple.

there you are.

let me try it for myself.

would I like a cup of tea?

yes I would.

thank you very much.

now watch this.

kettle boil.

see?

disaster.

now what's happened to Cinderella?

I was just

wishing.

yes I know.

do you mind if I make a very

rude comment?

these are hopeless.

they're worse than hopeless.

I ruined them.

I'm going to get into such trouble.

oh we don't want any of that.

dry your tears and have something to eat.

you'll be half starved and worn out.

I'm afraid there isn't anything to eat.

I was too busy doing those to cook

anything.

what's that then?

where did that come from?

and where did you come from?

I don't understand.

no.

well very few people do.

you're not meant to understand it.

you're meant to accept it graciously.

now look.

I'm a very busy woman and I sometimes

sometimes lack tact.

the first thing you must learn in life

is never to go by appearances.

things are never quite what you think they

are.

do eat up.

that's one of my best recipes.

take me for example.

I'm not what I seem.

mind you I don't dress the part and

for very good reason.

human nature...

oh well we won't go into what I

think of human nature.

but if I were to go about my

business all sparkle and glitter quite apart from

looking absurd because despite what they write in

their storybooks for children it's a most unsuitable

costume for a grown woman.

I should never be able to sort out

the worthy from the unworthy.

don't you agree?

I'm not sure I know what you're talking

about.

I'm a fairy godmother.

have been all my life and please don't

ask how I got into it because it's

a long story.

highly improbable and I sometimes wish we'd never

been invented.

are there many of you?

not enough to go around judging by the

amount of work I have to do.

how do you like that?

delicious.

it's the sauce you know.

that old wizard Michelin gave me the secret

in return for three of my magic knives

and forks.

where was I?

yes.

well I have to put people to the

test.

now you passed the test.

those...

that unholy trio upstairs I simply didn't bother

with.

not worth the effort.

however to work best thing you can do

is get a good night's rest.

not you.

I didn't include you.

you've got work to do.

ah let me concentrate.

what are they wearing in Paris these days?

can't keep up with fashion.

well have you got any ideas?

oh concentrate.

of course

it is not what I am used to

but I must say you have made a

reasonable job of stitching this.

girls it is time to leave.

we must not keep the prince waiting.

mama I've just been telling Palatine that she's

not to feel jealous if the prince asks

me to dance first.

oh mama.

Cinderella straighten that hem.

how do I look mama?

don't I look superb?

you both look ravishing.

it will be difficult for your poor mama

to outshine you.

come let us depart.

clear up the mess in my bedroom Cinderella.

I do not want to come home and

find it all untidy.

have a nice time.

you may depend on that.

hello and gentlemen.

the serene highness princess Maria Altaf.

princess Alexandra.

oh why not.

I'll just make time.

yes yes just as I thought.

sitting all alone feeling sorry for ourselves are

we?

well that's understandable I suppose.

I never cared much for these royal occasions

myself.

too formal and not enough to eat or

drink.

so I dare say in your heart of

hearts you'd like to go.

go?

me go to the ball?

of course.

that is what you were wishing isn't it?

not wishing exactly.

thinking what it must be like.

same thing.

now listen I haven't got a great deal

of time because I've simply run off my

feet these days.

what a miserable fire.

you shall go to the ball.

I just hope I haven't stretched everything too

far and that I can make it work.

my powers are not unlimited you know.

no I didn't know.

I have to share them out.

let me think.

yes I can borrow a bit until midnight.

now you outside.

I shall need you so off you go.

oh and you take them with you dog

and see if you can round up a

frog or a lizard.

now let me do something about you.

doesn't always work this.

but then I have been lucky.

dear.

dear.

dear.

most unsuitable for a ball.

yes.

yes it is.

well you'll just have to go.

I suppose you are.

it's beautiful.

it's beautiful.

how do you do it?

well that's a trade secret.

but it helps if you dream.

if you dream?

suddenly suddenly it happens and the dream comes

true.

wonderfully beautifully it happens and your world is

new.

magically you're holding the golden prize.

mystically your castles begin to rise.

suddenly dizzily you're spinning with the thrill of

life.

suddenly thirstily you're drinking in your fill of

life.

but secretly you just can't believe it's true.

then wonderfully beautifully suddenly it happens to

you Cinderella.

I just can't believe it.

oh my stepmother and my stepsisters.

they'll recognize me.

no one will recognize you for what you

are.

people seldom do.

but how shall I behave?

I'm dressed like a princess.

oh just be yourself.

and for tonight you are a princess.

the princess incognita.

but I must warn you and take heed

for it is a solemn morning.

the magic I have conjured here tonight is

borrowed magic.

on the stroke of midnight you must return

it.

otherwise everything I have transformed will change back

to its original state.

suddenly dizzily you're spinning with the thrill of

life.

suddenly thirstily you're spinning with the thrill of

life.

but secretly you just can't believe it's true.

suddenly it happens to you.

now off you go and enjoy yourself.

beautiful.

thank you fairy godmother.

for the stroke of midnight.

suddenly suddenly it happens and the dream comes

true.

wonderfully beautifully it happens and your world is

new.

magically you're holding the golden prize.

mystically your castles begin to rise.

suddenly dizzily you're spinning with the thrill of

life.

suddenly thirstily you're drinking in your pill of

life.

but secretly you just can't believe it's true.

when wonderfully beautifully suddenly it happens to

you.

oh charming

little thing.

doesn't speak a word of your friend.

John!

take me on the floor.

yes yes

yes.

delightful dance your highness.

excellent teeth.

your majesties.

your royal highness.

my lords ladies and gentlemen.

her highness the princess incognita.

who is she?

who can she be?

I have no idea your majesty.

she's not on my list.

your list your list.

find out man find out.

I didn't quite catch the name.

no mother none of us did.

most regular.

play on play on.

I think I should explain why I'm here

your royal highness.

my eyes give me enough reasons.

my name is Edward.

and it is for me to explain myself

to you.

explain why I subjected you to this ridiculous

charade.

I'm sure I seem to you the master

of my fate.

but until this moment I've been a prisoner.

trapped by my birthright.

trapped?

yes.

it was never my inclination to behave like

this.

what I mean is and I'm not saying

it very well.

I have always believed that marriage should begin

with love.

I'm sure you agree.

I have never given the matter much thought.

I'm amazed you even accepted the invitation to

the ball.

I was a little amazed myself.

didn't you think it odd?

I suppose I did.

but you still came.

why?

must you ask that?

yes I must.

I had heard much of you.

good or bad?

oh nothing but good.

I can't think how.

if I were you I'd have believed the

worst.

you see I was expecting.

I can't tell you what I was expecting.

but whatever happens afterwards I shall always remember

this moment.

and you must take my present happiness to

make you happier.

take it with all my heart for I

give it with all my heart.

there's a secret kingdom all my own with

no castles and no vassals and no throne

just two subjects you and me in my

private monarchy is love and love alone

in that secret kingdom that you see should

the make believe become reality
