(Upbeat Acoustic Guitar)
(grunting and sighing)
- Hmmm! I should be able
to make something really
HooblyGroobly out of these!
- Hoobadopoobs!
- (together) Hoobadopeither!
- I'm in a real
making mood today!
- Yeah, and I'm in a real
polishing mood, look at my
collection of shiny things.
- Ooh, that's
Hoob-acious groove.
What are you going to make Tula?
- Umm (interrupted
by mysterious voices)
- Hey Iver, you've hit
the question for HoobNews.
- No No No No, that's
not the question Hoobs,
I must have pressed
your button by mistake.
There will be Boofa!
- What's the matter HubbaHubba?
- Well I've been downloading
this fairy tale from HoobNet
for Auntie Hattie, and I'm not
sure I've got all the pages
and the ones I have got
are in a dreadful muddle!
- (groans and sighs)
- It's such a
Fan-tabby-Hooby story too.
Listen to this: Once upon a
time, There was a beautiful
princess called
Princess Marybell.
(gasps)
- That's what I'll make! A
beautiful Princess dress.
- Yes, well the beautiful
Princess was in love with a
handsome prince called Derrick.
- HoobyGroovy! I can
be Prince Derrick!
Look, I've got a crown to wear.
- Very nice Groove, anyway,
I wicked goblin called Gordon
lived in the forest
outside the castle.
- Ohh! Iver, you'd make
a HooblyGroobly goblin.
- Do I have to?
- Gordon the goblin was very
jealous of Prince Derrick.
He didn't want him to
marry the Princess,
(goblin voice) "I want
to marry the Princess",
said Gordon,
(goblin voice) I am going
to cast a magic spell
on the Prince and
turn you into a...
- Into a what?
(melodramatic piano music)
♪ - What! ♪
♪ What! ♪
♪ What, What, What! ♪
♪ Whaaat! Whaat! ♪
♪ What, What Whaat! ♪
- That's the point,
I don't know what!
The page that says
what Prince Derrick
got turned into is missing!
- Well, Let's think about this.
What did Gordon the Goblin
Turn Prince Derrick into?
- What did Gordon the Goblin
turn Prince Derrick into?
Now that is a
Hooble-dooble-doople question
for today's Hoob News.
- Is it?
- Of Course! Now While I'm
trying to get these pages in
order why don't you go
and see the Tiddly Peeps?
They know all about fairy tales.
- C'mon Groove. I'll drive.
Let's get those little
Motorettes singing!
(Whimsical xylophone music)
- I'll stay here and carry
on with my princess dress.
- Hehe
- Oh Groove!
- Yeah?
- You may kiss my hand.
- Oooh, my pleasure your
Highness. (kissing noise)
- Later Groove
- Excuse me.
(Bird Noises)
- Seat belt.
- Yes, thank you.

- Whoboddle Groove!
Hey do you want to
do a Whobe hello?
- Yes!
- Yah.
- Whobledoop, Whoobledoop,
whoop, whoop whoop.
- Why are you wearing
a crown Groove?
- Well, I'm pretending to be
Prince Derrick. Ha ha ha ha
Oh, is that a handsome
prince there in the book?
- Yes.
- Oh, he's just like me, eh?
How WhobeeGroovy is that?
- Veeery WhobeeGrovy.
(laughter)
- Now listen you two, I need
your advice on a fairy tale
HubbaHubba's reading to us.
You see, we've been dressing up
as all the characters. We know
that a wicked goblin, that's
Iver, cast a spell on Prince
Derrick, that's me, to stop him
marrying Princess
Marybell, that's Tula.
- What happened next Groove!
- Oo I'm glad you've asked,
because the spell turned Prince
Derrick into something. But
HubbaHubba can't find one of the
pages from the story, typical.
So, we don't know what.
- Well in fairy stories,
Princes often get
turned into frogs.
- They've got slimy
skin and webbed feet.
- Look! WhoobeeGaloobee. A
Frog! That's probably it.
Derrick the Frog. Ha ha ha ha.
Hey, Tula, start making me
a frog costume right away.
Right, I've got to get back
to the WhoobMobile now to
here the rest of the story.
Thank you so much TiddlyPeeps.
WhoobleToodleDoo!
- WhoobleToodleDoo!
(whimsical piano music)
- I love you my little pea
princess. But the evil goblin
Gordon has turned me
into an ugly frog.
- Aww
- With big webbed feet.
Oh Woe! Woe is me! Croak!
Croak! Croak!
- Oooh Derrick, Prince of
my dreams, alas, alack.
Whatever are we to dooo!?
- Hmmmmmm.
(laughter)
- So is ah, Iver dressed
as Gordon the Goblin?
- Yes, but he
doesn't like it much.
- Where is he?
(melancholic horn music)
- Here
- Ha ha, Iver, I have never
seen you look so...funny.
- Yes all right Groove, that's
quite enough. I don't want to
be a wicked goblin ya know?
- Oh Iver! You'll
get used to it.
- Yeah, go on Iver, be wicked.
Go "Muahhahhahhah. I'm a
goblin. A wicked goblin."
- Neeaaa, I'm Gordon,
the wicked goblin.
Now I've done it, I've done
it now, I'm going to tell
HubbaHubba we've got the answer.
Maybe then I can
get out of this.
(mysterious synthesizer noises)
- Oh Iver, I've never seen you
look so funny! Ha ha ha ha.
- Mmmm, yes, and, thank you
HubbaHubba, and, we've got the
answer for HoobNews, Prince
Derrick was turned into a frog.
- (Croak croak)
- Yes, well, while you've
been away, I found a bit
more of the story.
- (gasp) You did! Read it to us!
- Hmm, Derrick was very angry
about the spell that had been
put on him by Gordon the
Goblin. He was determined to get
his princes back again. He
found the key to the castle
hidden under the bush,
and he picked it up
with his sharp claws.
- J-J-Just a sec.
Frogs don't have claws.
- Exactly Tula. Which means
Gordon the Goblin didn't turn
Derrick into a frog.
- (Croak)
- Sorry Hoobs, I'll email Roma,
to see if she can help us.
- So, what could Gordon
have turned Derrick into.
- No idea.
- And what do Hoobs do
when they need an idea?
- Have a HoobeeThink!
Huuuummmmm.

- I've got it. Something

- Of course. Oh,
you're a genius Iver.

the Goblin Ha ha ha ha.
Prince Derrick. You are going
to be turned into: a cat!

- Ha ha ha ha
- We think Gordon
turned Prince Derrick
into a cat, HubbaHubba.
Because a cat has claws. See?
- Meeeooow
- Ah yes, nice try Hoobs, but
I found another page of the
story. Ahem. Clutching
the key in his claws,
Derrick flapped his wings and
flew high over the enchanted
forest to the castle gate.
- Hang on, did you say flew? Oh!

this wrong. Oh Hoobybother.

(mysterious voice)
- Phew, it's Roma.
- Aw, let's hope she
knows what animal
I'm meant to be. (sigh)
- Hoobledoop Hoobs.
- Hoobledoop Roma!
- Now, HubbaHubba tells me you
need to know about creatures
with claws. So I've come
here, to this mountain.
- Um, what's the
sandwich for Roma?
- Oh, it's for me Groove. I
thought, while I was here,
I'd have my lunch. You
don't mind, do you?
- No, go ahead.
- Yes, but what about
creatures with claws Roma?
- (gulping) Ah. Well. I've been
sitting here very still and
quiet and I've seen the most
HoobleDoobleDuple
big birds circling
round and round overhead.
- Big birds with claws Roma?
- Oh yes Tula. Enormous
claws. These birds are called
eagles, and they swoop down
from high above and pick up
their food in their
great big sharp claws.
- HoobeeGaloobee, that's
it, I must be an eagle.
- Um, whatever you say Groove.
- Yeah, swoop swoop
swoop ha ha ha ha.
- Oh! In fact, here comes a
particularly large one now.
Uh Oh, I think he's after
my sandwich. HoobeeGaloobee!
This is Roma Hoob,
up a Mountain, about
to lose my lunch.
HoobleToodleDoo!
- HoobleDoodleDoo!
- Yes! Eagles have
got wings and claws.
- That's got to be the answer.
- Ha! I'll make
you a HooblyGroobly
eagle costume Groove.
- Oh yes Tula.
(mischievous piano music)
Swoop swoop swoop
swoop swoop swoop swoop
Snatch ya, and snatch ya.
- Prince Derrick!
- Snatch ya! Swoop
swoop swoop swoop
(mysterious noise)
- Hubba, guess what? We think
Gordon the Goblin turned
Prince Derrick into and eagle!
- Ah, well actually Iver,
I've um, found a but more
of the story.
- Yeeesss?
- Yes, um. Derrick opened the
castle gates and flew inside.
He found the princes
in her chamber.
"It's me Derrick" he said.
"I've come back to marry you."
The Princess gasped. "I would
never marry a scary flying
monster like you" she said.
- A flying monster?
- You can hardly call
an eagle a monster.
- So an eagle can't
be the answer.
- Sorry Hoobs. But
don't despair. I found
a story on HoobNet
that might help us.
(mysterious noise)
- One day, the dinosaurs
were talking about
what they did best.
- I'm the heaviest, so I
can make the ground shake.
- Boasted Brontosaurus.
(Thumping horn and drum music)
- I've got the longest neck,
so I can reach up really high.
- Boasted Diplotocus.
(Orchestral flute music)
- Then he turned to Pterodychtl.
- What do you do best?
- He asked
- Oh, Uh. I can't dig up
roots with my sharp claws.
- He said
- Hurumph. We can all do that.
- Scoffed Brontosaurus.
- In that case, I don't
I do anything special.
(Offbeat orchestra music)
- Well you can't play football
with us unless you can
do something special.
- Said bossy brontosaurus.
- So pterodactyl sat and
watched the others play.
Suddenly the ball bounced
past him and fell right over
the steep cliff.
- I'll get it.
- He called, and jumped over
the cliff after the ball.
- Help! I'm falling!
- But suddenly, a strange thing
happened. He discovered his
wings. He flapped and
flapped and flew gracefully
down to the ground.
He picked up the ball, then
flew back to his friends.
- I can fly!
- He cried.
- That makes you extra special!
- Said diplotocus.
- That makes you a star!
- Said brontosaurus.
- And pterodachtyl spread
his wings, and flew round
and round for joy.
(mysterious noise)
- A pterodactyl. That's
a flying monster.
- Ah HoobyGroovy. Tula, make
me a pterodactyl costume,
quick!
- I am going as fast
as I can Groove.
- Faster!
- (mysterious voices)
- Have you found
another page HubbaHubba.
- Oh well yes Tula, I have.
Ahem. At that moment the door
opened and Gordon
the Goblin came in.
- (whispering) That's you.
- Derrick stamped his clawed
feet, flapped his big wings,
and breathed fire
all around the room.
- Pterodactyls don't
breath fire! Oh dear.
- (sigh) Good job I didn't
get going on the costume.
- Yeah, I really fancied
being a pterodactyl.
- Ha! Well nevermind Groove,
why don't you take another trip
to the TiddlyPeeps.
- That's a hooblygroobly
idea HubbaHubba. I'll drive.

You're back soon.
- Oh I know. We just can't
find out what the wicked goblin
turned Prince Derrick into.
- Wasn't it a frog?
- No, I'm afraid not. We heard
a bit more of the story and
the thing we're looking for
now is scary, has claws, wings,
and breathes fire.
- Well frogs don't do all that.
- No.
- I think I might know
what Derrick is Groove.
- WhooobeeGaloobee,
Really? What?
- I think he's a dragon.
Dragons are definitely scary.
- Dragon, what does
a dragon look like?
- Like this, see? Wings,
claws, and he breaths fire.
(gasps)
- Oh look at that Tula.
- HooblyGalooby. Tula needs
to make me a dragon costume
right away. But how
can she do that?
- Well sometimes you see
dragon costumes at the Chinese
New Year.
- Really? Nice! Iver, Tula,
ask HubbaHuuba to search
HoobNet, and see if he can
find and pictures of Chinese
New Year. Have you got that?
- Yes Yes, I'm on my way.
- Good. Thank you TiddlyPeep,
I think a dragon is
definitely the answer.
- That's Okay Groove.
- Aw thank you. Well, better
get back to the HoobMobile now.
I can't wait to dress up
as Derrick the dragon.
HoobleToodleDoo!
- HoobleToodleDoo!

fantabbyHooby? You see they're
very clever, these Chinese
Peeps, they have one Peep
holding the head on a stick and
lots of other Peeps holding
sticks controlling the body of
the dragons. Aren't
they utterly Hoobacious?
- Yes! I'm gonna be a dragon!
How HoobyGroovy is that?
- And I can make you a dragon

(Pulsing action music)

all you Hoobs out there.
Welcome to HoobNews. The news
show for Hoobs everywhere.
I'm Iver.
- I'm Tula.
- And I'm Rooooar! Groove.
- And today we've been
asking the question:
- What did Gordon the Goblin
turn Prince Derrick into?
- First, we went to
see the TiddlyPeeps,
who suggested a frog.
- Then HubbaHubba tols us that
the thing Prince Derrick had
been changed into had claws.
- So I thought it was a cat.
- Then we found out that
the thing had wings.
- So we thought Prince Derrick
had been turned into an eagle.
- But HubbaHubba told us that
Prince Derrick had been turned
into a scary flying monster.
- So we thought he might be
a pterodactyl. But the scary
flying monster breathed fire.
So it couldn't have
been a pterodactyl.
- So we went to see the
TiddlyPeeps again. And they knew
the answer.
- Gordon the Goblin turned the
handsome Prince Derrick into:
- A Dragon!
- You'll never
believe this Hoobs,
I finally found the
last page of the story!
- Yeees?
- Ahem. Derrick chased Gordon
out of the castle breathing
great flames of fire. Gordon
ran and ran and was never seen
again. The magic spell was
broken. In a puff of smoke,
Derrick appeared before his
princess as his old self again.
A handsome prince. And they
lived happily ever after.
- Ahh.
- Ahh. Now isn't that touching?
And so its 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 HoobleToodleDooo!
- HoobleToodleDooo!
- Right. Let's do it.
Are you ready Iver?
I'm going to chase you. Roar!
(Playful screaming)
- Ah! Princess Marybell.
Will you, Marry me?
- Oh, with pleasure
Prince Derrick.
