- Hooble doop 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 Hoobapeadia.

Here they come!

(laughter)

- [Iver] Coming, ready or not!

(birds tweet)

Oh.

Found you Groove.

- Oh hooby bother!

(laughter)

- Found you Tula!

- Oh you always find

us straight away Iver.

- Well you always hide

in the same place.

- You always look

in the same place.

- Anyway,

We've got to stop playing

Hooby hide and Hooby seek now

and think of a

question for Hoob News.

- Oh I know,

why don't we get Hubba Hubba

to play with us instead?

- What?

- Hoobily groobily idea Groove,

let's go and ask him.

- Yeah!

(laughter)

- But what about the question?

(upbeat music)

- I'll get to be

the first seeker.

- No Groove,

Hubba Hubba will have

to be the seeker.

Hubba Hubba's in Hoobland

so we can't look for him.

But he can look for us through

the Hoobycomputer screen.

- Look will you two stop talking

about Hooby hide and Hooby seek

and help me think up a question?

- I know,

I'll hide where we always

hide on the roof garden.

- But Groove that won't

be fair on Hubba Hubba,

he hasn't got a screen up there.

We have got to hide

in the Hoobmobile.

- Yes, but not now.

- Okay so where can we

hide from Hubba Hubba

so that he can't find us?

- [Hubba Hubba] Hubba Hubba

Hubba Hubba Hubba Hubba.

- Groove, you've

hit on the question.

- Where can we hide

from Hubba Hubba

so that he can't find us?

What a Hooble-dooble-duper

question!

(laughter)

There's nothing I like better

than a game of Hooby

hide and Hooby seek,

and this could get Hoobs

everywhere playing with me.

- Oh but we'll be

first Hubba Hubba.

- Absa-hooby-loobly!

I'll email Roma and

get her to seek out

some Hoobacious hiding places,

and you can go and

ask the Tiddlypeeps

if they have any ideas.

- Come on Tula, let's go!

I'll drive.

- Oh yeah!

What are you going to do Groove?

- Oh I'll think of

something useful.

- Ah ha.

- Don't you worry.

(upbeat music)

Hoobygoop on a Hoobybun

I think (laughs)

- Seat belt?

- Seat belt!

- We're off to see

the tiddly peeps!

(bubble pops)

- Hoobledoop Tiddlypeeps!

- Hoobledoop Tula!

- Well I hope you can

help us Tiddlypeeps,

do you know any

good places to hide?

- Yes, we'll show you.

- Tula, cover your eyes,

count to five and we'll hide.

- One, two, three, four, five!

(laughter)

Come out, come out,

wherever you are!

(bubble pops)

Hubba Hubba was right,

Tiddlypeeps are

Hoobilygroobily at hiding.

- Yeah!

(bubble pops)

- Okay, I give up.

You can come out now.

- Hoobledoop!

- Hoobygalooby, you were

hiding in the boxes!

What a great place to hide.

Groove?

- Yes Tula?

- Empty out three of

your collection boxes,

we're going to hide in them.

- It'll be done in the

blink of a Hoobyeye (laughs)

- Hubba Hubba will

never find us now.

Hooble toodle doo!

- Hooble toodle doo!

(upbeat music)

- Oh Groove, you're so messy!

- Groove!

- I know Tula,

I tried to get him to be tidy

but he just kept

emptying everything.

- Well, we need some

boxes to hide in don't we?

And my clutter cupboard

is the best place to come

if you want a good box.

- You're right Groove,

they are Hoobily-groobily.

Hubba Hubba will never

be able to find us

if we hide in these.

Oh come on!

(upbeat music)

I'm in!

- I think I'm in too.

Groove come along, come

and press the buttons.

Now press the buttons

and get in quickly.

- It's exciting.

(laughter)

Button, button, button.

- Hubba Hubba Hubba

Hubba Hubba Hubba Hubba.

- Oh!

Coming, ready or not!

(upbeat music)

- Where are you, Hoobs?

Don't tell me I'm going to

have to give up already?

(laughter)

Found you, you're in the boxes!

- Oh how did you work

that one out Hubba Hubba?

- Easy, I spotted Groove!

- But how?

He was inside the

box the whole time,

weren't you Groove?

- Well, most of me was.

- Groove!

- Well I had my Hoobybun all

gooped up and ready to go

so I just stretched

out and I got it.

- Groove!

- Sorry.

- Hiding in a box is a

Hoobily-groobily place to hide,

but not if you're playing with

Groove and a Hoobygooped bun.

- I said I'm sorry Tula,

what more can I say?

- Never mind Groove,

at least it made the

first one easy for me.

- Yeah.

- Now try to find

somewhere else to hide

and while you're doing that

I'm going to play Hooby

hide and Hooby seek

with auntie Hattie.

She's a Hoobacious hider!

(laughs)

Coming, ready or not!

(laugher)

- Right, well there must be

somewhere else we can hide.

- Yeah

- But where?

♪ Where, where, where? ♪

♪ Where? ♪

- [Roma] Roma, Roma,

Roma, Roma, Roma.

- Here's Roma.

- Maybe she'll know where.

- Hoobledoop, Hoobs!

- Hoobledoop, Roma!

- Shh, you'll have to

speak more quietly.

- Why's that Roma?

- Because I've come

here to Africa, Iver,

to watch antelope.

- Roma, have you seen any yet?

- Not yet, Tula.

But I think maybe,

yes some are just arriving!

- But why are you sitting

on a branch, Roma?

- Well, Tula,

antelope are easily frightened.

If they were to see me

watching them they'd run away.

That's why I'm hiding.

- But we can see you, Roma.

You're not hidden at all.

- That's because you're

not an antelope, Groove.

They always look around

them from side to side,

but they don't think to look up.

They'll never see me because

I'm high up on a branch

out of sight.

- Hmm, that's where

we need to be.

On something high up.

- The only problem is

I've left my lunch at

the bottom of the tree.

- Well you can get it when

the antelope have gone, Roma.

- Yes Iver, but I'm

getting rather hungry.

Oh Hooby-galooby, that

antelope is eating my lunch!

(laughter)

Hey, shoo, shoo!

This is Roma Hoob on a branch,

watching a very

naughty antelope.

Hooble toodle doo!

Hey, get off my tomato!

(laughter)

(clattering)

- What's Groove up to now?

- Oh!

- The Hoobasteps are the

highest thing we've got,

so we can hide high

up just like Roma.

- No, no, we can't all

hide up the Hoobasteps.

- Why not?

- You know why not.

- It's dangerous!

- Oh Hooby bother.

- Anyway, if I stand by

the Hoobycomputer screen

I can see the stop

of the Hoobasteps.

Hubba Hubba would be able

to see us straight away.

- [Hubba Hubba] Hubba,

Hubba, Hubba, Hubba. Hubba.

- And here he is.

- Found you, found you!

This is so easy.

- We're not hiding at

the moment Hubba Hubba.

We can't find the right place.

- Oh (laughs) well I

just found auntie Hattie

hiding in a Hoobaberry bush,

her bottom was sticking out

(laughter)

I spotted it straight away.

(laughter)

- We could really do with some

more help please Hubba Hubba.

- Well you're in luck Iver,

I've just keyed in the word

hiding into my Hoobycomputer

and there seems to be some

information on HoobNet.

- Yes but Hubba Hubba,

you musn't look at it or

you'll know where we're hiding.

- Good point Iver.

I'll tell you what,

I'll go and have another

game with auntie Hattie

while you're watching (laughs)

I haven't had so much

fun in ages! (laughs)

- [Narrator] Sofa

- Peep chairs.

- Another sofa.

Oh why are we

looking at furniture?

- Yeah I know.

- There's someone there.

- There's someone else.

Behind!

- Yeah!

- Tiddlypeeps hiding

behind things!

- Yes!

- We can see you!

- Found you.

(laughter)

(laughter)

- So that's what we need to do,

hide behind something.

- Behind something.

- Yeah.

- Do you know,

I've no idea what.

- No, neither do I (sighs)

(grunts)

- Oh!

- Oh sorry Tula, excuse me.

(Tula sighs)

- And what do Hoobs do

when they need an idea?

- Oh, have a Hooby think!

(Groove snores)

Wake up Groove!

- Hmm?

Sorry.

- Did you have an idea?

- An idea?

- Yes.

- No.

- Well I did.

We could hide behind the

big Hobbydooby chair.

- Oh Iver, that's the

perfect thing to hide behind.

Yes come one,

move Groove, move!

- Hoobacious!

Hubba Hubba will never be

able to see us behind there!

- [Hubba Hubba] Hubba,

Hubba, Hubba, Hubba, Hubba.

- Move over!

(Tula shrieks)

(Groove yells)

- [Tula] Oh!

- Please!

(Hoobs scuffle)

- Is that you?

- Well Hoobs,

I've just found auntie Hattie

hiding behind the

Hoobafridge (laughs)

It was her bottom that gave

her away again you see.

(laughter)

Oh, where are you?

Oh, you're hiding.

Of course you are.

- Be careful, you're going

to get us caught in a minute.

Ah.

- Ah found you, found you!

You're all hiding behind

the big Hooby dooby chair.

- That is the last time I

play Hooby hide and seek

with you two.

- I'm the most Hooble

dooble duper Hooby seeker

in the whole of

Hoobland (laughs)

- Oh, and I thought hiding

behind the Hoobydooby chair

would be a really

good place to hide.

- Oh it would be if there

weren't three of us.

- Hey, don't look at me.

- Now what are we going to do?

- Don't worry Tula,

I've found a story on

HoobNet all about hiding.

I won't listen, I promise.

Auntie Hattie wants me to

find her again (laughs)

Coming, ready or not!

(soft music)

- [Narrator] There was once a

little creature called Billy

who loved to sneak up on his

friends, Tilly and Willie

and frighten them

with a loud boo!

If they were reading,

he would sneak up

on them and go boo!

Even if they were sleeping,

he would sneak up

on them and go boo!

Then he would laugh and laugh.

Now Billy's friends didn't

think it was quite so funny.

- I think we should

teach Billy a lesson.

- [Narrator] Said Willie.

They decided to

sneak up on Billy

and give him the

biggest boo of his life.

Willie tried to

sneak up on Billy

while he was playing his guitar,

but Billie saw him coming.

- Haha, I can see you!

- [Narrator] Then Tilly

tried to sneak up on Billy

while he was juggling,

but Billy saw her coming.

- Oh bother

- [Narrator] Said Tilly.

- What shall we do?

- [Narrator] But then

Willie had an idea.

- I'm green,

so if I stand in front of

something that's green,

Billy won't be able

to see me coming!

- [Narrator] So Willie stood

in front of a big green bush

and he seemed to

completely disappear.

Just then, Billy

came towards him.

- Haha, you can't

sneak up on me!

- [Narrator] He said as

he stood by the bush.

(creeping music)

- Boo!

(Billy shrieks)

- [Narrator] Billy

leaped high in the air.

He ran home and didn't

come out for a whole week.

(fast music)

And he never said boo to

Tilly and Willie again.

(soft music)

- That's the answer,

we can hide in

front of something.

- I'm gonna hide in

front of the Hoobafridge,

that way if I get hungry

I can just help myself

to whatever I fancy.

- That won't work.

- It's got to be the same

color as our Hoobyfur Groove.

I'm looking for something pink,

Iver's looking for purple,

and you are looking

for something green.

- Yeah, yeah, yeah,

something green.

- Ah, yes.

- Green.

But what?

I'm the champion seeker!

- Hoobygalooby, how

did you spot us?

- Well your noses and

eyes and twizzletufts

were rather obvious, Hoobs.

Groove was the best hider,

because we can't see his eyes,

and his twizzletuft is the

same color as the rest of him.

- I'm the champion hider,

I'm the champion hider!

- All right, Groove.

We couldn't have

painted our noses,

eyes and twizzletufts could we?

- No.

We need a better place to hide

than in front of something.

- Well, why don't you go and

see the Tiddlypeeps again?

I'll bet they know

Hoob-loads of places to hide.

- Yes, but we'd better hurry.

It's nearly time for Hoob News.

- I'll go

- I'll drive, come on.

- Oh yes.

sit here and relax.

- Hooble doop, Tiddlypeeps!

- Hooble doop, Tula!

- We've been playing

Hooby hide and Hooby seek.

- Yeah.

- And we need a really

good place to hide.

We've been hiding in things,

on things, behind things,

we've even tried hiding

in front of things.

- What about hiding

under something?

- You could hide under a table.

- That might work.

- Shall we try it?

- Okay, I'll cover my eyes.

(laughter)

- [Girl] Okay Tula, we're ready!

- Oh!

I can't see you!

- Nowhere to be seen!

- No!

- I can't see the Tiddlypeeps.

They're under the table

and I can't see them.

- We're here, Tula!

- Hooby-galooby!

Hubba Hubba will never

be able to find us

if we hide under a table.

- Yeah.

- Oh thank you, Tiddlypeeps.

Hooble toodle doo!

- Hooble toodle doo!

(laughter)

(upbeat music)

Iver, Groove, let's hide!

Iver?

Groove?

Ooh.

I wonder if they could

be hiding under there?

Ah Yes!

- Yeah!

- I found you!

(laughter)

- Great Hooby seek Tula.

- And I know just the place

to hide in Hoobastudio.

- Well that's just as well

because it's time for Hoob News!

Hoobs?

- [Tula] We're

ready Hubba Hubba!

- Yeah but where are you?

- [Groove] In our

new hiding place!

- Ooh. (laughs)

Well, take it away!

(upbeat music)

- [Iver] Hooble doop whoop

to all you Hoobs out there.

Welcome to Hoob News,

the news show for

Hoobs everywhere.

I'm Iver.

- [Tula] I'm Tula.

- [Groove] And I'm Groove.

- [Iver] And today we've

been asking the question

- [Groove] Where can we

hide from Hubba Hubba

so that he won't

be able to find us?

- [Tula] First I went

to see the Tiddlypeeps,

and they gave us the

idea of hiding in a box.

- [Groove] But hiding

inside things is no good

if you get hungry.

- [Tula] Roma was

hiding on a branch

so that the antelope

couldn't see her.

- [Iver] The Hoobasteps

were the highest things

in the Hoobmobile,

but we couldn't

hide on them because

- It's dangerous.

- [Groove] Then we

saw lots of pictures

of Tiddlypeeps

hiding behind things.

- [Tula] We all squeezed

behind the big Hoobydooby chair

but it wasn't big enough

for the three of us.

- [Iver] Then we heard a story

about a creature called Willie,

who hid in front of a bush.

that was the same

color as he was.

- [Groove] So we painted

big pieces of cardboard

pink, green and purple,

and stood in front of them.

- [Tula] But Hubba Hubba could

still see our twizzletufts

and our noses.

So I went back to

the Tiddlypeeps

and they told me all

about hiding under things.

- Well, that's a really hooble

doodle duper report Hoobs,

but where are you?

- Under the desk!

(laughter)

- Oh yes!

You've beaten me at last.

- Hoob Hoob hooray!

- So it's thanks once again to

Iver, Tula, Groove and Roma,

for giving Hoobs everywhere

a little peep into

the world of Peeps.

And remember,

wherever you're hiding,

have a nice day and

Hooble toodle doo!

- Hooble toodle doo!

- All right auntie Hattie.

Coming, ready or not!
