The Egg

S2, E6: The iron chicken is on her iron nest. She is terribly agitated. She is rushing about searching for something. She looks through her telescope and sees what she has lost. She calls up Tiny Clanger on her radio. The Clangers are in bed but Tiny Clanger rouses them. They take their pretty tablecloth and run outside with it. They hold it out like firemen and manoeuvre into position so that they catch the iron chickens egg which is what she had lost. The iron chicken flaps down. The egg must not get cold so they put the egg in a crater for a nest and the iron chicken sits on it. There is a dull crunching sound and a clang as the crater falls through. The egg rolls down a slope inside the soupdragons cave and tips her into her soupwell.
