- Hoobledo Tiddlypeeps

I'm Hubba Hubba

talking to you from Hoobland

and I'm about to send four

of my favorite

Hoobs down to earth

to find out all about you

for my great Hoobapedia.

Here they come.

- ♪ [Narrator] You know

who the Hoobs are ♪

- Iva

- Groove

- and Tula

- We're Hoobs

- [Narrator] And

they're ready to go play

Now the wheels are turning

we can all get learning

All the things we want to know

Hubba Hubba's in Hoobland and

Rome is somewhere far away

the molterettes are singing

- We keep the engines spinning

Hoob Hoob Hooray

The Hoobmobile is

coming your way

- oh here we come

- [Narrator] The hoobs are

here so what do you say

- Hoobs

(happy music)

- (mumbling) It's the best

(laughing)

- Do you want some Tula?

- No thanks. Don't want

to get my paws sticky.

Going to be using my

hoobystitcherup in a moment.

Oh, thanks for mending

it for me Groove.

- Oh that's okay Tula.

What are you going to make?

- Well I haven't decided yet.

Oh! Hoobybother! I just can

not draw a straight line

- I've got something

you can use.

It's in my collection

of brown things

sometimes worn by peeps, Ha.

- Brown things

sometimes worn by peeps?

- Do you know, I've

been sitting on

the hoobyroof garden for ages

and I can't come up with a

single question for Hoob news.

- How about this?

- What?

- It's a brown thing which is

sometimes worn by a peep Ivan.

- A belt. Oh thank you.

Now I see what you mean.

- Well it's a very

useful thing you know.

They help you draw

straight lines

and they keep peeps trousers up.

- Not at the same

time of course.

- (chuckles) I wish

Hoobs could wear belts.

Yeah, it would be

really hoobygroovey.

- But what would be the point

Hoobs don't wear trousers.

- Oh! I know! We could wear

them to hold our tummies

in when we've eaten

too many hoobybuns.

- Yeah, they could be

hoobymiddlegrippers.

(chuckling)

- Hoobymiddlegrippers.

Oh that would be so hoobacious.

If we invented

hoobymiddlegrippers

do you suppose they'd

wear them in Hoobland?

- It's worth a try.

I could make some.

- You can?

- Of course I can.

I was wondering what to make

with my hoobystitcherupper

and now I know.

I shall make the first

ever hoobymiddlegrippers.

- But how?

- ♪ How, how, how ♪

how, how, how

how, how, how

- Here's how. Try them on.

- Tula look at this.

You are the best

hoobymiddlegripper

maker in the universe.

- I am the only

hoobymiddlegripper maker

in the universe Groove.

- Oh! It's perfect! Thanks Tula!

- Groove! Look what you've done.

- What?

- Your hoobymiddlegripper

it's got

great dirty paw marks on it

and you haven't even

tried it on yet.

- Oh, sorry Tula it

must be hoobygoop.

It only shows up because

my middlegrippers' wide.

- Do you know, I think

white is the wrong color

for hoobymiddlegrippers. Groove

will never keep his clean.

- Perhaps you could make us

a hoobymiddlegripper in

a different color Tula.

- Well I can see I'm

going to have to,

but what color should our

hoobymiddlegrippers be?

- [Intercom] Hubba, Hubba

- Tula you've hit the question

- What color should our

hoobymiddlegrippers be?

That's a hoobledobbleduper

question for Hoob news.

In fact I'm going to make

myself a hoobymiddlegripper

I often feel in need of more

of a grip around the middle

- Do you think they'll catch

on in Hoobland, Hubba Hubba?

- They might if I wear one.

- What we need is a

color that won't show

our hoobygoop marks.

- Ah, well have a

look at this story

I think you might find it useful

and why'll you're watching

it I'll email Roma

and ask her to find

out about colors too.

(playful barking)

- [Narrator] Once

upon a time there was

a little white dog called Mabel.

She lived with a little

black dog called Arthur.

Their owner Mrs. Flatterflee

loved them both very much.

Mabel and Arthur played

together everyday.

"Let's roll in the

field." Arthur would say.

So they did.

"Let's chase a paper

bag."Mabel would cry.

So they did.

(laughter)

"Let's knock over a dustbin

and sniff everything."

Arthur would shout.

So they did.

(barking)

Then one day Mabel

invented a new game.

All you have to is to lie on

your back in a muddy place

and wriggle and squirm

with your paws in the air,

she explained.

Woof, Arthur barked. This

is the best game ever.

(mischievous music)

Soon it was time for Mabel

and Arthur to go home.

Mrs. Flatterflee opened the door

and as soon as she

saw Mabel she shrieked

"Mabel! You're

filthy. You bad dog.

Into the bath with

you right away."

Mrs. Flatterflee

scrubbed and scrubbed

the little dog who

hated having baths.

Afterward, when Mabel was

lovely and white again

she said to Arthur

"Why wasn't Mrs.

Flatterflee cross with you?

You're just as dirty as I was."

"That's easy." Said Arthur.

You've got a white coat so

the mud showed up on it.

I've got a black coat

so Mrs. Flatterflee

can't see hoe dirty I am."

(cough)

- So if black doesn't

show dirty marks

- It must be the best color

for hoobymiddlegrippers.

- Right then I'll

make some black ones.

I've got some black

material in my hoobybitsbox.

They'll be ready in no time.

- Yes, but when?

- ♪ When, oh when, when,

oh when, oh when, ♪

when, when, when,

oh when, oh when, oh

when, oh when, oh when,

oh when, oh when,

oh when, oh when,

oh when, oh when, oh when

- Now that's when

- Now for the test.

Hoobygoop on paws,

paws on

hoobymiddlegripper. Ta-Da!

There no marks.

Hoop-hoop hooray!

- I don't know

- What's the problem Ivan?

- Well it's true it

doesn't show the dirt but,

don't you think

hoobymiddlegrippers

would be more fun if they

were a brighter color?

- But I spent ages making these.

- I'm sorry Tula, but

I agree with Ivan.

- Perhaps you could make

us hoobymiddlegrippers

in a fun bright

color instead Tula.

- Perhaps but, which

fun bright color

did you have in mind Iva.

- [Inercom] Hubba, Hubba

- I've gone for silver

and sparkles myself Hoobs

- Hoobacious, Hubba Hubba

- Yeah I am not wearing a

sparkly hoobymiddlegripper

- Oh, me neither

Groove. Sparkly no.

It's not going to happen.

- Well we all need a different

bright color to

use, Hubba Hubba.

- Well why don't you ask

the tiddlypeeps to

suggest something

If anyone knows about fun,

bright colors they do.

- Course they will.

Thanks Hubba Hubba

I'll go, Groove you drive,

and Tula can be ready on

the hoobysticherupper.

(sad music)

(piano music)

- ♪ We're off to see

the tiddlypeeps ♪

on the road we go

We're off to see the tiddlypeeps

They're smart,

The tiddlypeeps, the tiddlypeeps

who, what, when,

why, where, and how

We'll ask them, off we go

- Hoobledo tiddleypeeps

- Hoobledo Ivan

- Want to do a hooby hello?

- Yes

- Hoobledo, hoobledo,

woo, woo, woo

- Now I wonder if

you can help me?

We need to decide on

some fun, bright colors.

Which ones do you like?

- We'll there are lots.

- [Girl] What about these ones

we're using at the moment?

We're painting hot things.

- Oh, right. What

sort of hot things?

- Have a look.

- [Boy] See we're paining fires

and flames and suns and deserts.

- All these hot things are

colors that kind of look hot.

Do you see what I mean?

- Oh yes. Well,

that fire is orange.

- [Boy] There's a little

bit of red in it too. See?

- And this sun is bright yellow.

- Have you go that

Tula and Groove?

- Oh yes

- Yellow, orange, and red

- Yes

- They're hoobaciously

bright colors.

See if you can order some

material from Hubba Hubba

- Right

- Thank you so much tiddlypeeps.

I knew you'd be a great help.

- That's okay Ivan.

Come back anytime.

- I will but, I

better be off now.

Thanks again. Hoodbletoodledo.

- Hoobletoodledo.

- Oh yes this is more like it.

- Oh Groove that

looks Hoobacious.

- And here's yours Ivan

- Oh thanks Tula! A red one.

- Groove? Do you

think the orange

clashes with my pink hooby fur?

- I see what you mean, yeah.

- Yellow would suit me better.

Can I swap with

you please Groove?

- But I like my

hoobymiddlegripper.

I don't want an orange one.

- I'll swap with you Tula.

I don't think this red color

matches my hooby fur either.

- Oh, but a red

hoobymiddlegripper

would look awful on me.

I want the yellow one.

- Well you can't

have the yellow one

because you gave it to me.

- But I made them so I

should get first choice.

- Well just swap with me Tula.

- I am not wearing

the red one, Iva no.

- [Intercom] Hubba, Hubba

- Oh, Hoobledo Hoobs.

Are you having a bit

of a hooby squabble?

- Yes Hubba, Hubba. Groove

and I both wan the yellow one.

- Well perhaps if you

all had the same color

hoobymiddlegripper it

would save other arguments.

- Yeah that's a good

idea Hubba Hubba

Tula could make us three

yellow hoobymiddlegrippers

- I suppose so

- Oh no not yellow. Not for me.

- But Ivan.

- Now, now Hoobs. How

about this for an idea?

You've looked at hot colors

so why not try some cool ones?

Maybe you'll be able to agree

on one of those. Have a look.

Oh lovely blue fireworks Hoobs.

Beautiful blue skies.

A lovely indigo color.

Blue sea.

Green fields.

A lovely blue evening.

Oh look, violet flowers.

A beautiful pinky violet sky.

- So which color

shall we go for?

- Perhaps we should

just order the lot

and just decide when

the material arrives.

- Well that's a good idea Iva.

- Decided yet Hoobs?

- Actually Hubba,

Hubba we'd like you

to send us materials in all

those cool colors so

we can try them out.

- Cool colors are on their way.

- Let's hope we can find a

cool color that suits us all.

Or I'll be making

hoobymiddlegrippers all night.

- ♪ Stitch and sew

make it again ♪

In a color that

won't show a stain

Hot or cold like red or blue

What suits me and what suits you

- With the making and remaking

Just to get the colors right

All the time this task is taking

means I may be up all night

The middlegrippers you made

us were such a snuggly fit

The challenge is to

find the perfect shade

And we're sure you'll rise to it

We're sure you'll rise to it

- Stitch and sew make it again

- We prefer it in a color

that won't show a stain

- Cool or hot we'll try the lot

It suits you or it suits you not

- Oh the making and remaking

could leave me in distress

And my patience like my

bitsbox is not bottomless

A brand new task is good for me

It helps me keep my pouring

But, To make and make and

remake gets oh so hobby boring

- Oh so hooby boring

- Stich and sew make it again

- Have a you got a different

color something plain

What oh right fits

right on Hoobys too

What suits me and what suits you

- It's arrived.

- Right, here we go.

Course you can Iva.

- Now there are four

colors to choose from.

Green, blue, indigo, an violet.

When I say now we each

call the color we like

and let's hope we

all call the same one

Ready?

- Oh yes, yes

- Now!

- Blue

- I'd like indigo please

- I knew it. We'll never get

this done in time for Hoob news

- Yeah this is hopeless.

Who's idea was it to have

hoobymiddlegrippers anyway?

- Yours Groove.

[Intercom] Roma.

- Wait, ah there's Roma. I

bet she's got the answer.

- Hoobledo Hoobs.

- Hoobledo Roma.

- As you can see I've

been very busy indeed

learning about colors.

And I've got some

wonderful news for you.

- Oh look at that.

- Hoobygalooby.

- What's that up in the

shy behind you Romq?

- Oh hush Iva try

to concentrate.

Now listen very carefully

because I think this is the

answer you're looking for.

- Oh, okay.

- I found out that you can

actually mix two colors

together and when you do

that you get a third color.

Let me show you.

- Yeah but Roma what about

that thing in the sky?

- Oh pay attention Groove.

Now if you take blue and yellow

and mix them together

you get green.

- That's me.

- Or if you mix red and yellow

together you get orange.

- That's hooblygroobly Roma, but

- Oh it gets even more

hoobylygroobly,Tula.

If you mix every color

there is together

you get yet another color

and here it is, brown.

- Ah brown.

- Yes Tula beautiful brown.

All you you have to do is make

brown hoobymiddlegrippers.

That way you'll be using

all the colors you like.

- Oh well I suppose so.

- This is Rover Hoob

somewhere in the countryside

highly recommending

the color brown.

- But Roma wait! What's

that thing in the sky?

- Hoobletoodledo

- How hoobacious was that?

- Well not hoobacious at all.

Brown is no more

colorful than black

I mean even if it is all the

colors mixed up together.

- No, no, no. Not

Roma's brown color.

I meant that thing

up in the sky.

Like a giant hoobymiddlegripper.

[Intercom] Hubba, Hubba

- What do you think Hoobs?

Isn't it Hoobledoobleduper?

- Oh, yes Hubba Hubba.

And the grip it

give me, hoobacious.

- It is hoobacious Hubba

Hubba but please listen.

I've seen a strange and

wonderful thing in the sky.

It was made up of

Hoobloads of colors.

I'd like to know what it is.

- In the sky you say?

- Yes.

- I think you should

try the tiddlypeeps.

I'm sure they'd know all

about things in the sky.

- Good idea Hubba Hubba. Come

on Ivan I'll drive you there.

- Oh yes

- That's great, can

we help you again?

- I hope so. We've

just seen something

hoobacious in the

sky and I wondered

if you could tell

me what it was.

- We'll try. What

did it look like?

- Well it went right

across the sky. Like that.

And it had lots of colors in it.

- What sort of colors?

- Well let me see. There were

hot colors and cool colors

green, red, orange

- Wait a minute Iva.

Was it one of these?

- Oh yes! That's it.

That's what we saw.

Look Tula, Groove.

These tiddlypeeps have a

picture of what we saw.

- Its a rainbow.

- Rainbows happen

when it's raining

and the suns' shining

at the same time.

- When the sun shines

through the raindrops

you can see all the

different colors

that are in the suns' rays.

- Oh. Which ones are they?

- Red, orange, yellow, green

- blue, indego, and violet.

- Wait a moment.

Those are all the hot

and cool colors we've

been looking at.

- Yes

- So they're all in

a rainbow together?

- Yes.

- But that's hoobacious.

Isn't that hoobacious Hoobs?

- It is.

- Yeah

- You can have it if you'd like.

- Really? Oh, thank

you tiddlypeeps.

I'm going to take this back

to the hoob mobile right now.

- Hoobletoodledo.

- Hoobygroovy or what?

There's no stopping you Tula

once you get going

on that thing.

You'll stitch anything up.

- Thanks Groove.

- Rainbow

- Look Iva.

[Intercom] Hubba Hubba.

- Well Hoobs, are you ready

to give me your hoob news

for my great Hoobopedia?

- Ready Hubba Hubba.

- Then take it away.

- Hoobledo woo! To all

you Hoobs out there.

Welcome to Hoob news the new

show for Hoobs everywhere.

I'm Ivan.

- I'm Tula.

- And I'm Groove.

- And today we've been

asking the question

- What color should our

hoobymiddlegrippers be?

- First we realized that

white is a bad color

for hooby middle

grippers because

it shows up hoobygoop marks.

- Then Hubba Hubba showed

us a story about two dogs

and we worked out

that black is a color

that doesn't show the dirt

- but, we thought we'd rather

have a fun bright color.

- Then the tiddlypeeps suggested

that we try some hot colors.

- But when we did

we couldn't agree

on who should wear which color.

- We had a bit of

a hoobysquabble

and Hubba Hubba suggested

that we should all wear the

same color hoobymiddlegrippers.

- So, Hubba Hubba showed

us some cool colors.

- But we still couldn't agree.

- Then Roma wanted

us to choose brown

because that's the color she got

when she mixed all

her colors together.

- But she didn't see

the hoobacious thing

in the sky behind her.

Ivan went to ask the

tiddlypeeps about it

and they told him

it was a rainbow.

- And rainbows have

all the colors in them

that we'd been looking at.

- So now we know that the

way to have all the colors

we like on one

hoobymiddlegripper is to make

- a rainbow. Hoob hoob hoorey!

- Yes and don't they

look hoobledoobleduper?

Great work Tula.

- And your sparkly silver one

looks hooblygroobly

too Hubba Hubba.

- Thank you. It's getting

a bit grippy actually.

So it's thanks once again to

Iva, Tula, Groove and Roma

for getting Hoobs everywhere

a little peep into

the world of peeps

and remember wherever you

are, whatever you're doing

have a nice day

and hoobletoodledo.

- Hoobletoodledo

- Hey Iva wouldn't it be great

if we had hoobyarmgrippers?

- Oh yes and hoobyleggrippers

- And what about

hoobyheadgrippers

- Tula perhaps you

could make us some

on your hoobystitcherupper.

- Yes and what color

would you like?

- Blue

- Violet

- Orange
