- How bout this for a
question for Hoobnews,
Why do twizzletufts
grow out of our heads,
and not out of our elbows?
- My Auntie Woola
has twizzletufts
growing out of her elbows.
- She does?
Oh okay,
um,
here's another one,
what can jump higher
than a HoobMobile?
- Anything can.
The Hoobmobile can't jump.
That's not a question,
Groove.
It's a peep joke!
(both laugh)
- I know
(laughs)
(both sigh)
- Iver,
Do you have any ideas
for a question for Hoobnews?
- Has anybody seen my Hoobtube?
- Has anyone seen my Hoobtube?
- Isn't anybody
going to help me?
Can't you think of
a better question
than that,
Iver?
- I'm not suggesting
questions for Hoobnews.
I've lost my Hoobtube.
- Oh Iver,
why didn't you say?
- Groove!
- Relax,
Iver.
It's got to be somewhere.
- I know that.
But where?
♪Where, where, where♪
♪Where♪
- Groove,
- Yeah?
- Are you sitting on something
- Yeah.
- It could be my Hoobtube!
Aha!
What is this?
- That is my Hoobitape.
I've been looking
for that for ages.
- Look,
I desperately need my Hoobtube
it's got all my pencils,
my rulers,
my pens,
my sticky stars.
Everything in it.
- Why don't you just
wait for it to turn up?
- Because I need it
now.
Please help me look for it.
- All right Iver.
- And I'll help as well.
Hoobtube,
Where are you?
Come here Hooby Wooby Tubey!
Come to Grovey!
- Grove,
My Hoobtube isn't alive.
You can't call it and
expect it to come running.
You have to get up.
You have to look for it.
- (groans)
There must be another way
to find lost Hoobtubes.
I mean,
how do you find lost things?
♪Hubba Hubba ♪
Hubba Hubba♪
- That's Hubba Hubba!
- How do you find lost things?
Now that's the perfect
question for Hoobnews!
- (laughs) do you know
I knew we'd
come up with a
question eventually.
- I'm always losing my
HoobTube as well Iver.
So I know just how you feel.
Hoobs everywhere
will want to know
how to find lost things.
- And when we find the answer,
we'll be able to
find my Hoobtube!
- Do peeps ever lose things?
Maybe if we knew
what peeps lose,
we can work out
how they find them.
- Good thinking,
Tula.
- I've been having a
little look on Hoobnet
to see whether I
can come up with
anythings that peeps often lose.
Ha ha,
and believe you me,
there are a fair
old number of them.
Take a look,
Oh now there's a
Tiddlypeep's shoe
lost in a bush.
What's this?
Oh a Tiddlypeep toy
lost behind something.
And there's a bag.
Was lost behind a door.
No wonder they can't find it!
Oh someone's lost their watch.
Oh and they're
always losing keys,
the peeps.
There's a glove.
lost on some peeps stairs.
Oh there's another
Tiddlypeep shoe!
What's that?
Looks like a Hoobycontroller,
lost under a cushion.
Looks like a Hoobytie.
- Hubba Hubba was right.
(grunts)
Peeps do lose lots of things.
- My blue twizzletuft ribbon.
- What?
- Those pictures reminded me,
I've lost my blue ribbon.
Has anybody seen it 'round here?
- Hmm,
It's blue you say?
- Yes,
And about this long.
And it's got little
patterns all over it-
- Hang on,
hang on,
we're supposed to be working out
how to find lost things.
Like MY Hoobtube.
- Well,
My ribbon is lost.
So we can try to
find that as well.
- Well the only way I
know to find something
is to look for it.
- Hmm,
I think it's very important,
that we look in the Hubbafridge.
- My Hoobtube isn't
likely to be in there,
is it Grove?
- Well you never know,
Iver,
it-
(moans)
Here's the cheese
I thought I'd lost.
(munches)
- And my Hoobtube is
obviously not in there either,
is it,
Tula?
- Well,
I thought maybe,
- Why do I get the feeling
nobody is helping me?
- We're trying,
Iver!
We've looked everywhere.
What else can we
do besides looking?
♪Hubba Hubba♪
That's Hubba Hubba
- [Iver] Hubba Hubba,
we've tried looking.
What else can we do?
- I've found something,
Iver.
It's a story on
Hoobnet that I think
might just help you.
- [Woman] Friendly Frog
was having a party.
All his friends came to
the pond to play games.
First they played
"who can stay under
water the longest?"
Friendly Frog always wore his
swimming goggles for this game.
Then they played Pin
the Tail on the Tadpole.
Then they played
Pass the Pond Weed.
It was a great party.
The next morning,
Friendly Frog
discovered that something
terrible had happened.
His swimming goggles
had disappeared!
He went to see Know-it-all Newt.
- Have you seen my
swimming goggles?
- No,
Friendly Frog.
You're always looking
for your goggles.
Why don't you keep them
in a special place?
- But I haven't got
a special place.
- [Woman] Friendly Frog replied.
He went to see Teasing Toad.
- I haven't seen
your goggles either.
You should be called
Forgetful Frog instead!
(laughs)
- [Woman] Friendly
Frog was very upset.
He hated going under the water
without wearing his goggles.
His friends helped
him search the pond.
But they had no luck.
- I'll just have to paddle
my toes in the water.
- [Woman] Sighed Friendly Frog.
He climbed up the rocky steps,
and sat on top of the waterfall.
And there,
on a rock,
next to the Pin the Tail
on the Tadpole game,
were his goggles!
This gave Friendly
Frog a great idea.
- From now on,
this rock
will be my special
place for my goggles.
I shall always put them there
when I finish with them.
And then I will always,
always,
know where to find them.
- That's what you should
do with you Hoobtube,
Iver,
put it in a special place.
- Well I will.
When I find it.
- I'm,
um,
I'm just gonna check
the Hubbafridge.
- From now on,
I'm going to have
a special place
for all my things.
Like,
um,
this reel of Hoobitape!
I'm going to put it in
this.
There.
- I don't think I'm ever
going to find my Hoobtube.
What else can we do?

how they find lost things?
- That's a great Hooble
Dooble Duper idea!
I'll Drive.
- Yes um let's go.
(laughs)
- Oh now see this
could get lost.
I best put it in

happy I am to see you today.
Because I need to know
about lost things.
For example,
if you've lost your dog,
I need to know how you
might go about finding it.
- Call the police.
- Oh,
The police.
- Call the dogs home.
- I know,
make a poster.

Now let me tell
you what it's like.
It's sort of like a tube
that holds the pencils.
And my paintbrushes.
And my ruler.
And it's on a big base,
a round base.
And on the base,
on the bottom of it,
lots of little red dots
all the way around.
They're like little balls.

I thought it was there.
(gasps)
- It was!
Now my special place is lost.
- Aww!
- Grove,
- Hmm?
- Have you seen
my special place?
- No,
I don't think so.

Hubba Hubba's asked
me to find out
what I can about
finding lost things.
So I've come here to a
lost and found department.
This is the place where peeps
bring things that are lost,
so that other peeps
can find them again.
Today I'm trying to help
get some lost things
back to their owners.
Now,
In this box are some things
that are lost.
- Is my Hoobtube in that box,
Roma?
- Um well,
It's not here.
- Oh
- Oh but I do have
a mud sandwich.
(gasps)
Lucky there's a label on it.
And it tells me that
this mud sandwich
belongs to a hippopotamus.
(laughs)
Thanks to the label
we can take the
mud sandwich back
to the hippopotamus who lost it.
- What else is in the box?
- Oh,
Iver,
I'm trying to give my report.
Now, here we are.
- That's it!
That's my Hoobtube!
- Hang on a minute,
was your Hoobtube labeled?
- Well,
No it wasn't.
- Well,
This one is.
This Hoobtube belongs to
(gasps)
Roma Hoob!
That's me!
I didn't even know I'd lost it.
So remember,
If you put a label
on your things,
you'll easily find them again.
This is Roma Hoob,
off to put some things
in her Hoobtube.
Hooble Doodle Doo!
- [All] Hooble Doodle Doo!
- That's it,
Iver.
I'm going to make
you an enormous label
with a picture of you on it.
You can tie it
onto you Hoobtube,
so when someone finds it,
they'll know it's yours.
- But the problems is,
Tula,
my Hoobtube is already lost.
- Okay,
So I'll make the label,
and you can put it on your
Hoobtube when you find it.
- Thanks,
Tula.
That's very kind.
- I'm going to make us a
lost and found department.
So that if we find
your Hoobtube,
we can take it there.
- Good idea,
Grove.

Yes,

- Now,
I have a really,
really important
question to ask you.
What do the peeps
you know say to you
when you've lost something?
- My mum tells me to look
where I last used it.
- My teacher says,
"Think where you left it."
- Now let me see.
Yesterday I was writing some
Hoob Do You Do's
to my friends in Hoobland.
And when you write
Hoob Do You Do's,
you need to use
pencils and crayons,
so I must've been
using my Hoobtube!
Now,
If I could just remember
where I was when I wrote them.
Well I was looking
for somewhere quiet.
Somewhere with a nice
big table to rest on.
And-
Oh that's it!
Now I remember!
- Well done,
Iver!
- Oh thank you,
so much,
Tiddlypeeps,
thank you!

- Oh excuse me Grove,
(panting)
- I declare the
Hoobmobile lost and found
department well and truly open!
- Hello lost and found Hoob!
- Hello there.
- Have you by any chance found a
blue twizzletuft ribbon?
- Let me see.
Hmm.
A blue twizzletuft ribbon
is an item of clothing,
isn't it?
- Mhm.
- Ah!
(laughs)
Yes,
is this the item?
- Yes!
Fantabby Hooby!
Thanks,
Grove!
- It's all right.
- Found it!
Oh it worked,
I found my Hoobtube!
And it's all thanks
to the Tiddlypeeps.
I found it,
I found it,
I have found it,
look!
Here it is.
Hoob Hoob Hooray!

I am the happiest
Hoob in the Universe.
- Where was it,
Iver?
- Where I'd left it,
of course!
(all laughing)
No, no, no,
you see, you see,
I thought back to the
last time I'd used it.
I was writing some
Hoob Do You Do's,
and using my
pencils and crayons.
I just had to think hard
to remember where I was.
And I remembered I was
in the Hubbistudio!
So I rushed in there,
and there it was.
- Well,
next time when you lose it,
you'll find it in the lost and
found department right there.
- That's where I
found my ribbon.

Welcome to Hoobnews,
the news show for
Hoobs everywhere.
I'm Iver.
- I'm Tula.
- And I'm Grove.
- Today we've been
asking the question,
- "How do we find lost things?"
- It all started when
I lost my Hoobtube.
We looked everywhere.
But we couldn't find it.
- [Tula] So then Hubba Hubba
showed us some things
that peeps lose.
And it reminded me that I'd lost
my blue twizzletuft ribbon.
- [Grove] Now we had
two things to find.
- [Tula] We heard a
story about a frog,
who kept losing his goggles,
until he decided to put
them in a special place.
I put my Hoobitape
in a special place.
- [Grove] Was that
your special place?
Well now your special
place is in a,
a special place.
- [Tula] Where's that?
- [Grove] The Hubbafridge.
- [Tula] Grove!
- [Iver] We learned
from the Tiddlypeeps
that one way to find lost things
is to make a poster.
- [Grove] Then Roma told
us a thing peeps have
called a lost and
found department.
If you lose something,
it goes there.
- [Iver] I went back
to the Tiddlypeeps,
and they had a Hoobacious idea.
- My mum tells me to look
where I last used it.
- [Iver] So I thought about
when I'd last used it,
and remembered where I was,
and I found it.
So now that I found it,
I'm going to keep a label on it,
so that everyone
knows it's mine,
and I'm going to keep
it in a special place.
- The Hubbafridge?
- With a bit of luck,
you'll never lose it again.
- [Hubba Hubba] Exactly,
Tula.
I'm off to look for a special
place here in Hoobland,
where I can keep my Hoobtube,
too.
But before I go,
It's thanks once again,
to Iver,
Tula,
Grove,
and Roma,
for giving us all a little peep
into the world of peeps.
And remember,
wherever you are,
have a nice day,
and Hooble Toodle Doo!
- [All] Hooble Toodle Doo!
- Right,
I'm going to find a special
place for this right now.
- The Hoobafridge.
- What?
No!
Grove!
