Post by bunniefuu »

- Hoobledoop, 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!

♪ You know who the Hoobs are ♪

♪ Iver, Groove, and Tula ♪

♪ We're Hoobs ♪

♪ And they're ready to go ♪

- Hey!

♪ Now the wheels are turning ♪

♪ We can all get learning ♪

♪ All the things

we want to know ♪

- Yay!

♪ Hubba Hubba's ♪

♪ In Hoobland ♪

♪ And Roma's

somewhere far away ♪

♪ The Motorettes are singing ♪

♪ We keep the engines spinning ♪

♪ Hoob Hoob hooray ♪

♪ The Hoobmobile is

coming your way ♪

- Oh here we come!

- Hey!

- Ah!

♪ The Hoobs are here

so what do you say ♪

- [Crowd] Hoobs!

- Goodbye Tiddlypeeps!

(Groove laughs)

Wait until Iver

and Tula see this.

(Groove laughs)

Iver!

Tula!

(Groove laughs)

Just look at what the

Tiddlypeeps have just given me.

Look at that!

Huh.

Iver?

Tula?

- What is it Groove?

Are you all right?

- Am I all right?

Am I all right, she says.

I am Hooby Groovy.

Look.

- [Iver] Oh what

have you got there?

- The Tiddlypeeps gave it to me.

It's a brand new dinosaur.

- What kind of dinosaur?

- I don't know Tula.

- And where are you

going to put it?

- In one of my collections.

- Which one?

- Uh, I don't know.

A dinosaur collection I suppose.

- I see.

Have you got a

dinosaur collection.

- Uh, no.

- Oh.

- Aha!

So which collection

should Groove

put his new dinosaur in, Iver?

- [musical voice]

Hubba Hubba Hubba Hubba

- Hey, it's Hubba Hubba!

You've hit the question, Tula!

- Which collection should Groove

put his new dinosaur in?

That's a fan-tabby-Hooby

question for Hoob News, Groove.

(Groove laughs)

- You're right Hubba Hubba.

- I think we need to know more

about dinosaurs, Hubba Hubba.

We don't even know

what kind this one is.

- Right let's see what

I've got on HoobNet

that might help you.

(humming)

Aha!

Take a look at this

and while you do that

I'll get in touch

with Roma and tell her

to start investigating

dinosaurs.

(Groove laughs)

- [Huba Huba] These dinosaurs

really are Hoobacious Hoobs.

Now this Peep here is

polishing some dinosaur bones.

(Groove laughs)

They keep them in a museum.

That's a Brontosaurus

there, you see?

- [Iver] Brontosaurus.

- [Hubba Hubba] And they

keep all the dinosaur bones

so they can study them.

(dinosaur roaring)

- [Hubba Hubba] Look at that!

Roar!

(dinosaur roaring)

That's a Tyrannosaurus Rex!

Apparently he had the

loudest roar of them all.

- It's a Tyrannosaurus Rex.

My dinosaur is a

Tyrannosaurus Rex!

How Hooby Groovy is that?

- Very Hooby Groovy, Groove!

(Groove laughs)

(Groove roars)

- Ah!

What did you do that for?

- Real dinosaurs roar, Iver.

(Groove roars)

- Oh yes, of course.

(Iver roars)

- But have you decided

which collection

he should go in, Groove?

- Oh right.

Which collection would you like

to go in Tyrannosaurus Rex?

(Groove roars)

- Stop it Groove!

That roaring sounds

far too real.

- Hey that's given me an idea.

Let's pretend that

my dinosaur is real.

- Ah!

Do we have to?

- Now, if he were

a real dinosaur

he would be enormous.

So, let's think.

He'd probably be

happiest in my collection

of very big things.

(Groove laughs)

Here we go Tyrannosaurus Rex.

In you pop.

[Musical Voice] Hubba

Hubba Hubba Hubba.

- Hoobledoop, Hoobs.

How's your Tyrannosaurus

Rex, Groove?

- Oh, he's fine Hubba Hubba.

I've decided to put him in my

collection of very big things

because real dinosaurs

are very big.

- So we've got the answer

to Hoob News already

Hubba Hubba.

- Excellent.

Is he happy in your collection

of very big things, Groove?

- Uh, I don't know.

I'll ask him.

- Oh, do you have to?

- Now then, where is he?

Must be in here somewhere.

I just put him in here.

(Groove laughs)

Big butterfly.

No, no.

Big starfish.

Can you see him, Tula?

- Um, oh look.

There he is down there.

- What?

Oh yeah, yeah.

Gotcha.

Thanks, Tula.

There he is.

Say hello to Hubba Hubba.

(Groove roars)

- Ah!

(Hubba Hubba roars)

- Ah!

(Hubba Hubba laughs)

I'm sorry Iver.

Well Hoobs, you've seemed

to have find the answer

to Hoob News already.

- Actually, I'm not sure now.

- Not sure?

Why?

♪ Why? ♪

♪ Why, why, why, why? ♪

♪ Why? ♪

♪ Why, why, why, why? ♪

♪ Why, why, why? ♪

♪ Why? ♪

♪ Why, why, why? ♪

♪ Why? ♪

♪ Why, why, why, why? ♪

- Because it's not

very easy to find him

in my collection

of very big things.

That's why, Tula.

I'd like to try

another collection.

- All right, Groove.

We need to make sure that

your lovely Tyrannosaurus Rex

is happy with his new home.

- Yeah, but I'm not sure

where he'd be happy.

- How about visiting

the Tiddlypeeps?

They might suggest

which collection

would suit him best, Groove.

- You took the words right

out of my mouth, Tula.

- Great idea, Tula.

Will you drive me, Iver?

- Only if that Tyrannosaurus

Rex behaves himself.

- Oh he will, I promise.

(Groove roars)

- Ah!

- Seatbelt, Iver.

- Yes.

- Hoobledoop, Tiddlypeeps!

- It's Groove!

(Groove laughs)

- Do you want to

do a Hooby hello?

- Yes!

- Yeah.

(cheering) Hoobledoop,

Hoobledoop!

(cheering) Woop, Woop, Woop!

- What's that, Groove?

- It's a dinosaur.

A Tyrannosaurus Rex, actually.

- Can we have a look?

- Of course.

The thing is, I want to put

it in one of my collections

but it's the only

dinosaur I've got

so I can't make a

dinosaur collection.

Where else do you

think I should put it?

- Have you thought of

what it's made of, Groove?

- Well, it's plastic isn't it?

- Yes, lot's of things

are made out of plastic.

- This is plastic.

- [Groove] Yeah.

- And this.

- A plastic collection

would be a great place

to put your dinosaur, Groove.

- Hooby Galooby, you're right.

Did you hear that, Iver?

- Yes.

- Tula?

- Yes.

See if you can find my

collection of plastic things.

I'm going to get back

to the Hoobmobile now.

I'm putting my dinosaur

in my collection

of plastic things right now.

Hooble Toodle Do!

- Hooble Toodle Do!

(Groove laughs)

(upbeat music)

- Well, I do hope

this is Groove's

collection of plastic things.

- Hmm, I'm not sure

it's the answer, Iver.

I mean, if Groove's dinosaur

were a real dinosaur,

then he wouldn't be

happy in a collection

of plastic things, would he?

- Oh, is that my collection

of plastic things?

- Um, we think so, Groove, but--

- Let's have a look.

That's plastic, definitely.

(Groove laughs)

And that.

Oh yeah, that looks

like plastic all right.

(Groove laughs)

Hose bucket.

What about this?

Yep, that's plastic.

Yeah, this is my collection

of plastic things, all right.

The perfect home

for my new dinosaur.

(Groove laughs)

- Not if he were a

real dinosaur, though.

- Huh?

- Real dinosaurs aren't

made of plastic, are they?

- Oh no, of course they're not.

- A real dinosaur is a living,

breathing, roaring, thing.

Isn't it, Groove?

- Yeah.

(Groove roars)

- Ah!

- Iver's right.

Nothing else in here is

a living thing, is it?

- No.

A real dinosaur wouldn't

fit in here at all.

He'd be miserable.

- Yes, a real dinosaur

would probably be happier

with other animals, Groove.

- Yes, he'd probably be

happier with other animals

living outside in the sunshine.

As far away from me as possible.

- Right.

You take him up to the

Hooby Roof Garden, Tula.

And I'll go and get my

collection of animals.

(Tula roars)

- Ah!

Don't you start, Tula.

- Oh, sorry Iver.

(upbeat music)

(Groove laughs)

- Right, my little

furry friends.

You are about to meet

a Tyrannosaurus Rex.

(Groove laughs)

(upbeat music)

There we are.

A Hooby Groovy outdoor

place for animals.

Including my Tyrannosaurus Rex.

- Well done, Groove.

I'm sure he's in the

right collection now.

- Oh yes.

If he were a real dinosaur,

then he'd be really happy

living with other animals.

[musical Voice]

Roma Roma Roma Roma

- Hooby Galooby, it's Roma!

- Yes, but I found the

answer already, Tula.

Oh, I'm sorry Mr.

Tyrannosaurus Rex.

I've got to go,

but you have fun with

all your furry friends.

(Groove laughs)

(upbeat music)

- Hoobledoop, Hoobs!

- Hoobledoop, Roma!

- Hubba Hubba tells me

that you want to know

about this dinosaur behind me.

- Hooby Galooby!

Is that a Tyrannosaurus

Rex, Roma?

- Yes, it is, Groove.

Well, it's the

skeleton of one anyway.

I found it here in a

natural history museum.

- It's Hooby Groovy, Roma.

But the thing is--

- Yes, yes, Groove.

You can tell me

all about it later.

But right now, I'm

going to tell you

what I found out about

the Tyrannosaurus Rex.

- Sorry.

- Good.

Now, it turns out

the Tyrannosaurus Rex

is the fiercest

dinosaur of them all.

- Did you say fierce, Roma?

- Oh yes, Iver.

Just take a look at those teeth.

- Yes, they do look very sharp.

- They certainly are, Tula.

And I'll tell you why.

- Why?

- Because it uses

them to chomp through

any animal that crosses

it's path, Groove.

That's why.

It gobbles them

up just like that.

- So you're saying

Tyrannosaurus Rex

eats animals, Roma?

- That's right, Iver.

Anything that moves.

And that's why I'm

not staying long.

- What do you mean, Roma?

- Well, I know it's

only a skeleton

but if it were a real dinosaur

then it might just eat me.

This is Roma Hoob in a museum

making sure she

doesn't get gobbled.

Hooble Toodle Do!

- Hooble Toodle Do.

- Oh, dear.

- Oh, no.

My animals!

A real dinosaur

would eat my animals!

Don't do it!

(Iver and Tula laugh)

- Oh, dear.

- Oh phew, nothing eaten yet.

- That's because it's not

a real dinosaur, Groove.

- Yeah, but if he

were a real dinosaur

I couldn't put him in a

collection of animals,

could I?

(Groove roars)

- Ah!

- No, Groove.

It wouldn't be fair on

the other animals at all.

So, we're stuck again.

- Oh, Hooby bother.

[musical Voice] Hubba

Hubba Hubba Hubba

- It's Hubba Hubba, come on.

- [Iver] Bad news, Hubba Hubba.

- Oh dear, I'm

sorry to hear that.

- Yes, we've tried all

sorts of collections

and not one of them is right.

- Yeah, I don't think my

poor Tyrannosaurus Rex

will ever have a home

where he's happy.

- Oh, come on now, Groove.

Remember the old Hoob saying,

If at first you don't succeed

Hooby try again.

- Yes, I suppose so.

- There's no supposing

about it, Groove.

Look, here's something

that will cheer you up.

A Tiddlypeep has

sent in a story.

Perhaps this will give you

the answer you're looking for.

(scary music)

- [Boy] Sylvia Saloon

was a brand new car.

- Oh, nice.

- [Boy] One day, a big

lorry for carrying cars

pulled up to her factory

to take her away.

There were lots of other

brand new cars on it already.

"Where are we going?"

Sylvia asked Harry Hatchback.

"We're going to our

showrooms", said Harry.

"All new cars go to showrooms.

"People come and

look at us there.

"And if they like

us, they buy us."

After a time the lorry stopped

and Sylvia was driven off.

Then she heard a voice say,

"Sorry, the showroom's

filled up at the moment.

"Better put her

around the back."

So Sylvia was driven

into a big car park

full of old cars and left there.

"This isn't right!",

wailed Sylvia.

"I'm a new car.

"I'm supposed to be with

new cars, not old ones.

"Oh, I'm so unhappy."

But the very next day

a man came and drove

her out of the car park.

"Now where am I going?",

asked Sylvia grumpily.

"Look!", said her driver.

And there in front of her,

she saw a lovely bright showroom

full of brand new cars.

"Hurray!", she shouted.

"New cars! I'm going to

be with new cars again!"

And Sylvia had

never been so happy.

(upbeat music)

(Groove laughs)

- I've got it.

I've got it.

Listen, my Tyrannosaurus

Rex is new.

Just like Sylvia Saloon, right?

So, he's bound to fit in best

with my Hooby Groovy

collection of new things.

Here you are, Tula.

You hold him.

(Groove laughs)

- Ah, please, don't roar Tula.

- Oh, all right.

Come on, Iver.

(Iver Mumbles]

- I hope Groove's collection

of Hooby Groovy new things

is the right one for him, Iver.

- Me, too.

I can't wait to

see that dinosaur

safely tucked away

in a new home.

- Here we are.

My collection of Hooby

Groovy new things.

(Groove laughs)

What do you think of this one,

Mr. Tyrannosaurus Rex?

Will you be happy in there?

(Groove roars)

- Ah!

Groove, just put him in there.

Put him in there!

- Oh, I'm sorry Iver.

But you've got to admit it,

that settles it.

We've got the answer.

A new dinosaur in a

collection of new things.

(upbeat music)

- Perfect.

- And you know what?

It isn't even time

for Hoob News.

- Oh, well in that case,

there's something I'd

really like to do.

- What?

♪ Oh what, oh what, oh what? ♪

♪ Oh what? ♪

♪ Oh what, oh what, oh what? ♪

♪ Oh what? Oh what? Oh what? ♪

♪ What, what, what? ♪

- Go and show my collection

to the Tiddlypeeps.

That's what.

- I think that's a

Hobbly Groobly idea.

- Hoobledoop, Groove!

- I've brought my

collection of Hooby Groovy

new things to show you.

- Oh, great.

- I've got this plunger.

Plunger.

And I've got this

Hooby Groovy bat.

(Iver and Tula laugh)

- But this, this is the Hooby

Grooviest new thing of all.

- But it's a dinosaur, Groove.

- A Tyrannosaurus Rex.

- But what's a dinosaur

doing in a collection

of new things?

- Well, it's really

new isn't it?

- But real dinosaurs lived

a very, very long time ago.

- Really?

I didn't know that.

- Dinosaurs were one of the

oldest creatures

that ever lived.

- So if this were

a real dinosaur,

do you think he'd be

happier in my collection

of very, very old things?

- Yes, definitely.

- Oh, thank you Tiddlypeep!

It's a good thing

I came to see you.

Did you hear that, Tula?

- Mm-hmm.

- Iver?

- Yes.

- Find my collection of

very, very old things please.

Because that's where he belongs.

Better get back now and put

him in the right collection.

Hooble Toodle Do!

- Hooble Toodle Do!

(Groove laughs)

(upbeat music)

- Right.

Here's Groove's collection

of very, very, very old things.

Let's hope we've

finally got the answer.

- We've got the answer.

We've got the answer.

- Just as well you went

to show the Tiddlypeep

your collection of

Hooby Groovy new things.

- Absa-hooby-lootly, Tula.

Real dinosaurs lived a long,

long, long, long time ago.

He's sure to be happy with

all these very old things.

Yeah.

- Well let's hope so Groove.

We'll do Hoob News

before anybody changes

their mind again.

Come on.

[musical Voice] Hubba

Hubba Hubba Hubba

- Well, Hoobs.

Are you ready with your news

for my great Hoobapedia?

- Ready, Hubba Hubba.

- Then take it away.

(upbeat music)

- Hoobledoop, woo!

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

- Which collection should

Groove put his new dinosaur in?

- [Iver] First, we discovered

that Groove's dinosaur

was a Tyrannosaurus Rex

and that real dinosaurs

are very big indeed.

- [Groove] So I decided to

put him in my collection

of very big things.

- But Groove wasn't

happy with this

because he couldn't

find him easily.

- [Iver] Then the

Tiddlypeeps told us

that Groove's dinosaur

was made of plastic.

- [Groove] So, I

was about to put him

in my collection

of plastic things.

- But then we had another idea.

If he were a real dinosaur,

he wouldn't be happy

with plastic things.

- No, he'd be better

off with other animals.

So, I made a special

place for him

in my animal collection.

- [Tula] Until Roma told us

that a real Tyrannosaurus Rex

would eat the other animals.

- Then Groove thought

that his new dinosaur

would be happy in his collection

of Hooby Groovy new things.

- [Groove] And I took

my collection off

to show a Tiddlypeep.

- [Iver] And that

Tiddlypeep said

that real dinosaurs lived a

very, very long time ago indeed

and that the right place for

Groove's Tyrannosaurus Rex

is in his collection of

- Very, very old things.

- Well done, Hoobs.

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 are,

have a nice day and

Hobble Toodle Do!

- Hooble Toodle Do!

(Groove laughs)

- Are you happy now

my little friend?

(Groove roars)

- Ah!
