(soft music)
(yawning)
- Hoobledoop Tula
(yawning)
- Hoobledoop Iver
- Do you know I'm
in the mood to think
about Hooble-dooble-doop a
question for today's Hoob News.
- And I'm just in the
mood for picking Hoobnips.
So I'm going straight up
onto the Hoob roof garden
(music playing)
(boing boing)
(snoring)
- Right, I'll think I'll
go and check the engine
See if the Motorettes
are all right.
Wake up Groove!
- Groove.
Is there anybody there
under that twizzletuft?
Oh, I'll find out.
Groove!
- What? What? Oh!
Hoobledoop, Tula.
(boing)
- Hoobledoop, Groove.
- And a whoop, whoop, whoop.
Oh, Tula.
I really didn't want to get
out of my Hoobypod today.
It's so soft and squidgy.
- Oh, I'm sorry
Groove, but we need
to think of a question
for today's Hoob News.
- You know I'm going to find out
all about soft
and squidgy things
and I can start a soft
and squidgy collection.
Ha ha ha
How Hooby groovy is that?
- Lovely, juicy Hoobnips make
a delicious Hooblet tart.
(soft music)
- All right, little
Motorettes, I'm going to give
you a little cleanup with
the Hooby engine duster.
Come on, come on.
(laughing)
(more laughing)
(music playing)
- Hoobledoop Groove.
(soft music)
- Hoobledoop, Groove!
- Hoobledoop, Iver.
- Have you thought of a
question for today's Hoob News?
- Sorry?
- Have you
(sigh)
Have you thought of a question
for today's Hoob News?
- No, no, sorry, I haven't.
I'm busy finding out about
soft and squidgy things
on Hoobnet.
- Ah. Well be quick,
Groove, be quick.
- Tula...
(beep)
(Hubba Hubba Hubba Hubba)
- Oh, Hoobledoop, Groove.
It's a lovely day
here in Hoobland.
How are you getting
along on the Peep Planet?
- Uh, Hooby groovy, Hubba Hubba.
Listen, I was wondering.
Could you look on Hoobnet
and see if you can send
me anything on soft and squidgy?
I'm starting a collection
of soft and squidgy things.
- Oh, ho, are you?
Oh, right. Let me
see. Soft and squidgy.
Soft and squidgy.
- Ah, now I found some
soft and squidgy stuff
that tiddlypeeps
play with, look.
- Oh, Hubba Hubba,
that's Hooby groovy.
Yeah! I'll print that out.
(music playing)
(printing noises)
- I'll send you some
right away, Groove
and I'll be back just as soon as
you've thought up a
question for Hoob News.
- Thank you, Hubba Hubba.
- Iver, Tula. I've
got a picture of...
Hoobnips.
- By the time we've answered
out question for the day,
this Hoobnip tart will be ready.
- Can I have a nibble now, Tula?
- No, Groove!
Now it not the
time for nibbling.
Now is the time for
finding out how many
Hoobnips I'll need
for my Hoobnip tart.
Tiddlypeeps like to find
out things, don't they?
- Yeah, yeah, they do.
I wonder, how do
tiddlypeeps find things out?
(Hubba Hubba Hubba Hubba)
- Oh Groove, I think
you've hit on the question.
Here's Hubba Hubba.
(space sounds)
- How do tiddlypeeps
find things out?
Oh, that's a fantabby
Hooby question
for today's Hooby News.
- It is?
- Yes, Iver, and I can put
everything you discover
into my great Hoobopedia
so Hoobs everywhere
can find out.
- So where do we start?
- Right, let me have a
little look on Hoobnet
to see if I can find
anything about tiddlypeeps
that will start you off.
Ah, here we go.
Take a look at this.
(music playing)
- [Hubba Hubba] Ooh,
what's going on here?
Ah, she looks as if she's
finding out something.
Ooh, well that looks like fun.
They seem to be playing.
Ooh, they seem to
be playing too.
(space noise)
- Playing, tiddlypeeps do
an awful lot of playing.
- Ah, speaking of playing,
that'll be my delivery
of soft and squidgy
play stuff I ordered
from Hoobnet.
- Do you suppose tiddlypeeps
find things out by playing?
- Well, I guess they do, Iver.
- Yay, it's here.
(laughing)
- We, Hoobs, do a lot of
playing, but I've never really
thought about how much
we find out from it.
- Well, what we need is
something to play with,
then we can see.
- And I, Groove,
have the answer.
- Oh, can I have a go?
Please, let me have a go.
- No, no, just you wait,
this is for my collection
of soft and squidgy things.
That's my toy so I
have the first go.
- Come along, you
must let me have a go
because...
(playful chatter)
- What a noise!
(upbeat playful music)
(laughing)
- Calm down!
- Well, we've already
found out that you can play
a Hooby chase game with
Groove's soft and squidgy stuff.
- (laughing) Yeah, heard
you can play a banging game
by whacking it with a
Hobby sandwich hammer
until it's nice and flat
(laughing)
- Yes, yes, yes.
All right, Groove.
While I'm going back
to play with my tart,
maybe I'll find out how
many Hoobnips I need.
- Ah, I wonder if tiddlypeeps
have any other ways
of finding things out?
(Hubba, hubba, hubba)
- If you want to know how the
tiddlypeeps find things out,
then I suggest that
you go and find
some tiddlypeeps to ask.
- The Motorettes are all ready
to make the Hoobmobile go.
- Well then, what
are you waiting for?
- I'll drive.
- And I'll work out how
many Hoobnips we need
while we drive along.
- Hoobnips!
- Groove!
- [Iver] Groove, are you coming?
- Yes, yes.
- [Iver] Come on, Groove.
- Coming!
- Pop your seatbelt on.
- Oh, yeah.

the tiddlypeeps!

- Hoobledoop, tiddlypeeps.
- Hoobledoop, Iver!
- Want to do a Hooby hello?
- Yes!
- Hoobledoop,
Hoobledoop, Hoobledoop
whoop, whoop, whoop.
- Hooby-galooby! You're playing
with soft, squidgy stuff.
Can you see this, Groove?
- Yeah!
- We, Hoobs, need
to know something.
- What do you need
to know, Iver?
- Well, we're trying to find out
how tiddlypeeps find things out.
- But, why?
- Why? Well, Max, because
we spend all our time
finding things out.
- But, where?
- All over the universe.
Do you know we were
on the Dozzo planet
finding out all about the
Dozzos and the diddlydozzos.
- But, when?
- Just before we can
to your peep planet
to find out about
peeps and tiddlypeeps.
Do you know, other Hoobs,
they're on other planets.
And we all travel
around in Hoobmobiles.
They take us wherever
we want to go.
- How?
Well, they run on music.
In the engine, there are
lots of musical instruments
and three little Motorettes
who play the
instruments and sing.
And that's how we
can get to visit you
so that you can help us
find out about things
so that we can send
out answers back to...
- Who?
- Hubba Hubba in Hoobland!
Hooby-galooby, you tiddlypeeps
do ask a lot of questions.
Don't you?
Could answer mine now?
How do tiddlypeeps
find things out?
- By asking lots of questions!
- Just like Hoobs!
No wonder Hoobs and tiddlypeeps
get on so well together.
- Oh yes, Iver,
tiddlypeeps love Hoobs.
- Aww, that's lovely.
- And Hoobs love tiddlypeeps.
Hooble-toodle-do
- Hooble-toodle-do!
(upbeat playful music)
- Six Hoobnips.
- That's loads, can I have one?
- No, not yet, Groove.
- Do you believe it?
Tiddlypeeps find out
about things that same way
that we do.
- Yeah.
- By asking questions like why.
♪ Why, why, why ♪
- Who would have thought
tiddlypeeps ask as many
questions as Hoobs do?
- I have a question.
Would a splash of Hoobofizz
taste good in my tart?
- Well, a...
(Roma, roma, roma)
- Ah, no time to
answer that now, Tula.
Here comes Roma.
- Hoobledoop, Hoobs!
Now, I've been with these
fantabby Hooby tiddlypeeps
all day and they've given
me this fizzy drink.
Which, looks a bit
like Hoobofizz.
- Hoobofizz?
Roma, does it give you
Hoobyhics like Hoobofizz does?
- I don't know, Groove.
I'm going to test it to see.
- Yeah.
(slurping)
- No, no Hoobyhics.
- But Roma, what
we want to know is.
Do the tiddlypeeps
test things out?
- The tiddlypeeps
never stop testing.
Give them water and they
splash it and pour it.
Give them paint and
they mix it together
to see what color they get.
- Any Hoobyhics yet, Roma?
- No, still no Hoobyhics.
So, my test shows that
tiddlypeeps fizzy drinks
does not give me Hoobyhics
like Hoobofizz does.
- (groaning together)
- Just a minute, it does.
Oh it does!
(laughing)
- (hiccuping) Hooby-galooby!
This is Roma (hiccup) Hoob,
reporting for Hoob News.
With the news that
tiddlypeep fizzy drink
does give me Hoobyhics.
Oh, Hooble-toodle-do!
(hiccupping)
- So tiddlypeeps
test things out.
- Yeah.
- Just like Hoobs.
- Well, we better test
something out just to make sure.
- Oh, let's test
the Hooblet tart out
to see if it's really yummy.
- No, Groove, not yet.
I'm still wondering
whether a splash
of Hoobofizz would be good.
- It's just suggestion.
- I've just had a
Hoobacious idea.
- Oh yeah.
- Maybe, you should test
your soft and squidgy stuff
to see if you can make
something out of it.
- Yeah. What should I make?
- Well, it's blue, so it will
have to be something blue.
- What do we know that's blue?
(Hubba, hubba, hubba)
- Hubba Hubba!
- Yeah, I'll see if I
can make a Hubba Hubba
out of my soft
and squidgy stuff.
- Oh, Groove.
You could put me
into your collection
of soft and squidgy things.
- Oh, Hubba Hubba.
(laughing)
- Now, while you do that,
let me show you this story
that a tiddlypeep
sent to Hoobnet.
(music playing)
- [Child Narrator] Boffin the
Big Book sat on a dusty shelf
in old Mr. and Mrs.
Grumbles house.
He was very sad.
- Here I am full of interesting
facts and beautiful pictures
and does anyone ever open
me and look things up?
No!
- [Child Narrator] Old Mr.
Grumble was always too busy
sorting out his stamps to be
interested in anything else.
But, Old Mrs. Grumble was
forever asking questions like...
- What does an armadillo
have for breakfast?
Or, why does my big toe
have knobbly bit on it?
- [Child Narrator] Old Mr.
Grumble would reply grumply,
- Don't ask me, I don't know.
- [Child Narrator] But,
Boffin the Big Book would jump
up and down on his shelf.
- Ask me, I know. I'm
Boffin the Big Book
and I know everything.
- [Child Narrator]
But nobody heard him.
Now, one day, Sammy
Smart came to have tea
with old Mr. and Mrs. Grumble.
Halfway through a jam donut,
old Mrs. Grumble piped up.
- What's the hairiest
thing in the world?
- What? Don't ask
me, I don't know.
- [Child Narrator]
Said old Mr. Grumble.
- Do you know Sammy?
- No, but I know a man who does.
- [Child Narrator] Sammy took
Boffin the Big Book down.
- [Sammy] You can
find everything out
by looking it up in here.
- [Child Narrator] Said Sammy.
- [Sammy] It's an encyclopedia.
- Did you hear that?
- [Child Narrator]
Said old Mrs. Grumble.
- We can look up
anything we need to know.
- Then I'm going to look
up all about stamps.
- [Child Narrator]
Said old Mr. Grumble.
And from that day on,
old Mr. And Mrs. Grumble
never stopped looking things up.
And Boffin the Big Book had a
big smile all over his cover.
(space noise)
- So, tiddlypeeps find out
about things from books.
- And I found out
something by looking it up
in my Hooby cookbook.
A splash of Hoobofizz is
perfect in a Hoobnip tart.
So I tested it out.
- And I've tested my
soft and squidgy stuff.
Ta-da, Hubba Hubba!
- Oh well done, Groove.
- Thank you. Well,
I'm going to put you
in the Hooby studio
ready for Hoob News.
- Tiddlypeeps are Hoobly-groobly
at finding things
out, aren't they?
Do you know something, Iver?
When the tiddlypeeps
are around you,
you can never feel
lonely, can you?
I think, that the Peep
Planet is the best planet
we have ever visited.

My great Hoobopedia is
like an encyclopedia
but it's on the Hoobnet
and you look things
up in it by using
a Hooby computer.
- I wonder if tiddlypeeps
ever find things out
by looking things up
on their computers?

- Well Hoobs, are you
ready give me your answers
for my Great Hoobopedia?
- We're ready Hubba Hubba.
- Well, take it away.
- Hoobledoop to all
you Hoobs out there.
Welcome to Hoob News.
The news show for
Hoobs everywhere.
I'm Iver.
- I'm Tula.
- And I'm Groove.
- And today we've been
asking the question.
- How do tiddlypeeps
find things out?
- [Iver] Hubba Hubba found
us all sorts of pictures
on Hoobnet of
tiddlypeeps playing.
- [Groove] So we played with
my new soft and squidgy stuff
that I ordered from Hoobnet.
- [Tula] Then we went to find
some tiddlypeeps to ask them
how they found things out.
- [Iver] And I discovered
that they found things out by
- Asking lots of questions.
- [Tula] Then Roma
sent us a report about
how tiddlypeeps find
things out by testing them.
- [Groove] Roma been
testing a tiddlypeep drink
to see if it gave
her the Hoobyhics.
(hiccupping)
- [Iver] We then
discovered that tiddlypeeps
find things out by
looking them up in books.
- [Tula] And we discovered
a very useful book
called an encyclopedia.
- [Groove] Hubba Hubba
is putting together
a Hoobopedia on Hoobnet.
- [Iver] So that made us
wonder whether tiddlypeeps
look things up on their
computers like Hoobs do.
- [Groove] So I went to
visit the tiddlypeeps
and they do look things
up on their computers.
- I'm trying to find
out about Hoobs.
- And we Hoobs are here to
find out all about tiddlypeeps.
And today we found out
that tiddlypeeps find out
in just the same
way as Hoobs do.
- Hoob-hoob-hooray!
- Oh, yes tiddlypeeps
are Hooble dooble dooper.
Oh, and so is that model
you've made of me, Groove.
- Oh, thanks, Hubba Hubba.
I'm going to put it in my
soft and squidgy collection.
(laughing)
- So, it's thank you to
Iver, Tula, Groove and Roma
for giving us all a little
peep into the world of peeps.
And remember, wherever you are,
have a Hoobily-groobily day
and Hooble-toodle-do!
- Hooble-toodle-do!
(chatter)
- Groove, where're you going?
- I'm going to
have a bit of tart.
- Oh, yeah!
