0:00.0 | Katie and the Remote for Life. Hello, this is Natasha and I'm here with the latest story about Katie the witch, who is an ordinary girl who goes to school just like everybody else. Only there is one thing that is just a bit different about her. She's a witch and can do magic spells. Of course, Katie is not supposed to do magic at school, but when you have got special powers, can be ever so tempting to use them, as you will hear. It was Saturday morning, and Katie got up late. |
0:38.3 | She finished her breakfast and suddenly remembered that the amazing journey was on television. |
0:46.3 | She did not normally watch a lot of TV. |
0:50.3 | She preferred to see 360 degree animations on her mum's crystal wall. |

2:09.6 | It was like magic. |
2:11.6 | But unlike most other things in the house, it wasn't actually magic. It was technology. After the programme was over, |
2:22.3 | she held the zap-it in her hand and thought, this little magic wand is very clever as far as it goes. |
2:30.3 | If only I could use it in real life. But hold on. |
2:36.0 | Perhaps I can. |
2:39.0 | On Monday, Katie and her mum got in the car and headed off for school. |
2:45.0 | Halfway there, Katie's mum remembered that she had promised to take ISIS that day. She turned around |
