 Here, in all its unedited glory is 'Jack and the Beanstalk' performed by Oswin (age 8) and Granny (age old enough to try and forget about it...)

I think you'll have to click on the link to see this. 

When I was a teenager, my sister and I amassed quite a large collection of puppets.  We used to perform fairy tales for children's parties and raise money for charity.

Now Oswin is seven and she's getting the knack of controlling the puppets, so we've just put together a short version of Red Riding Hood for you.  (I'm afraid the joke at the end will only make sense to those of my generation, but Oswin loves an old TV show that her grandad used to share with her mother, and her mother now shares with her.  The puppet in question actually belongs to Oswin!)
