|title=Escape from Planet Bogey (Pet Defenders)
|rating=3.5

|summary=On holiday in Cornwall Cherry found a length of fishing line and decided that she was going to make a giant's necklace with cowrie shells. She's patient and painstaking - it takes her weeks to gather the shells, clean, polish and string them together. On the final day of the holiday she knows how many more she needs and she's determined that she's not going to be beaten. The family head off for a day on their beach and Cherry begs to stay on for a little longer so that she can get the shells she needs. Only she's not ''quite'' careful enough and allows herself to be cut off by the tide when the weather takes a turn for the worse.
