- 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!

- Oh, here we come!

- Well, hey!

- Oh!

♪ The Hoobs are here

so what do you say ♪

♪ Hoobs ♪

- This has just got to be

the most hooby groovy way

of spending a day doing

absohoobylutely nothing at all.

- Whee, look out coming

through (laughing).

- What's Iver doing?

- Running about with

a bucket I think.

Now, what can I make

out of red paper?

- Why is he running

about with a bucket?

- Don't you know what day it is?

- No, what?

♪ What, what, what ♪

♪ What ♪

- It's Hooboberry

Harvest Day, that's what!

(Tula and Groove groan)

And it would be nice if

you two would help me.

- Sorry, Iver, I'm busy.

- Busy doing what exactly?

(bucket clanking)

- Nothing.

- Oh!

Hrumph!

- But when I finish

doing nothing,

I'll be more than

happy to help, Iver.

- Oh, I'll help too Iver,

but I've just got to

work out what I can make

with my red paper first.

- Hmm, if I have to pick

all the hooberberries

on my own by the end

of the day (sniffles)

then I better pick them quickly.

(spring boinging)

(sighs) Very quickly.

(spring boinging)

(cheerful music)

- Come on, Groove,

think of something I can

make out of red paper.

- Hmm, a cheese

sandwich (laughs).

No, that's not really red is it?

(Iver gasping)

- Oh, hooby galooby!

- What's the matter, Iver?

- Can you hear my chest going

ba-boom, ba-boom, ba-boom?

It's so loud I can

hardly hear myself think.

(heart thumping)

- (gasps) You're right!

There is a loud ba-boom

going on in there.

- Yeah, I can hear it from here.

Hooby groovy or what?

Ba-boom, ba-boom.

- Ba-boom, ba-boom, ba-boom.

- Yes, yes, all right, right.

Thank you very much, Tula.

Anyway, I can't stand

around here listening to my

ba-booming chest all day.

(Iver exhaling)

- Groove, do you think

everything's all right?

I mean, why is Iver's

chest going ba-boom?

- [Computer] Hubba Hubba,

Hubba Hubba, Hubba Hubba.

- Why is Iver's

chest going ba-boom?

Fantabahooby question, Hoobs.

- Iver, we've got the

question for Hoob News!

- I don't know why your

chest is going ba-boom, Iver,

but let's see what happens

when I have a look on Hoobnet.

Now I'll key in boom,

boom, boom, boom.

Oh, I say, take a look at this.

(computer whizzing)

Woohoo, look Hoobs,

these Tiddlypeeps

and these Peeps

are having a hooble dooble

duper time, aren't they?

Playing their drums,

making ba-boom sounds.

- Yes, ba-boom.

- [Hubba Hubba] Yes it's

a lovely noise isn't it?

But they're making it

on drums aren't they?

So I wonder if there's

something inside Iver

making a ba-boom sound.

Ooh, they certainly sound

hoobacious don't they?

(computer whizzing)

- (laughs) You know Iver,

your booming chest sounds

just like a hooby

groovy drum b*at.

- [Tula And Groove]

Ba-boom, ba-boom, ba-boom.

- Well, I haven't got a

drum in me chest, have I?

Now, if you'll excuse

me I've got to go

and pick hoobloads

of hooberberries.

All on my own!

- Hey, maybe he's eaten

too many hooberberries

and that's what's jumping up

and down inside his stomach

going ba-boom (laughs).

No, okay, maybe not.

- I am not eating the

hooberberries, Groove!

I'm picking them!

All on my own!

- [Computer] Hubba Hubba,

Hubba Hubba, Hubba.

- Well, I must say, Hoobs,

whatever is making

Iver's chest go ba-boom

is also making him very grumpy.

- Yeah, you're telling

me, Hubba Hubba.

I'm sure he'd feel much

better if he just did nothing,

(gasps) like me.

- Yes, perhaps, Groove,

but I think I'll just email Roma

and ask her if she can find

out about ba-booming chests.

I'm a bit worried about Iver.

- Me, too, Hubba Hubba.

I don't think I'd like it

if my chest went

ba-boom like that.

Would you, Groove?

- What?

No, no, no I wouldn't.

It's scary, poor Iver.

(Iver gasping)

- What are you all staring at?

- Nothing.

- Oh, nothing (chuckles).

- Yeah, I was just

thinking, Iver,

that perhaps the Tiddlypeeps

would know about your ba-boom.

- Yes, Hubba Hubba, they might.

I must say, I'd quite

like to know what it is.

- Well, why don't you

take a bit of time off

from hooberberry picking

and go and ask them.

- Oh, right!

Yes, Hubba Hubba,

hoobacious idea!

- Come on Iver, I'll drive.

We'll soon find out why your

chest is making such a noise.

(Iver laughing)

Come on!

- Oh yes, yes.

- Come on!

- Yes, yes, yes.

- I'll just stay here

and carry on doing

nothing then, shall I?

(Groove chomping)

- Seatbelt.

- Mm-hmm.

- [Together] We're off

to see the Tiddlypeeps!

- Yes.

- [Together] Hoobledoop,

hoobledoop, whoop, whoop, whoop.

- Are you all right Iver?

You sound out of breath.

- Oh, I am (panting).

My chest's going

ba-boom, ba-boom.

I don't know what it is

but I wish it would stop.

- Your chest always

goes ba-boom, ba-boom.

- What?

- It's your heart.

It never stops b*ating.

- (gasps) Are you sure?

- Yep, it's

definitely your heart.

Ba-boom, ba-boom, ba-boom.

(heart thumping)

- Oh, Tula, Groove!

- Yeah?

- I've got a b*ating heart.

- Yes.

- Yes.

- It's my heart that makes

my chest go ba-boom, ba-boom.

- We've all got b*ating

hearts, Iver, listen.

- Hmm?

(heart thumping)

(Iver gasping)

- We've all got b*ating

hearts in our chests!

Oh, thank you so

much, Tiddlypeep.

Do you know,

I feel much better now I know

what's making that ba-boom.

(giggles) I can stop worrying.

I can finish picking hoobnips.

And you can help me, Groove.

Hooble toodle doo!

- Hooble toodle doo!

(Iver laughs)

(heart thumping)

- Yes, Groove.

Now I can hear it.

Will you hold still?

- Oh, sorry.

- Ah, definitely a heartbeat.

- Oh, good.

- Ba-boom, ba-boom.

It's very quiet though.

Not nearly as fast as Iver's.

- Oh, good.

Now, let me hear yours.

(heart thumping)

(Groove laughing)

Yeah, great ba-booms, Tula!

Ba-boom, ba-boom,

ba-boom, ba-boom, ba-boom,

- Thanks, Groove.

- Ba-boom, ba-boom, ba-boom.

- But I really need to decide

what to make out

of my red paper.

- How about that then?

- Ba-boom, ba-boom.

- We all have hoobacious hearts

that go ba-boom,

ba-boom, ba-boom.

- [Groove] (laughing) Yeah.

- Right, now I can get on

with picking my hooberberries.

- Yeah.

Ba-boom, ba-boom, ba-boom

- [Computer] Hubba Hubba,

Hubba Hubba, Hubba.

- Ah, I found out all about

my ba-boom and it's fine!

It's hoobacious!

- Oh, I am glad, Iver.

There's nothing like

a hoobacious ba-boom.

- [Iver] Ba, ba-dum, da-dum!

- [Tula] Iver,

are you all right?

- Yes, oh yes, I'm fine.

(laughs) But I must

get on now, you know,

I've got hoobloads more

hooberberries to pick.

- But just a minute.

- Yes?

- We know that it's your

heart going ba-boom.

- Oh yes, yes that's

right it's my heart, Tula,

we all have one.

Now, if you'll excuse

me I have to go.

- Wait, wait, wait.

Everyone's heart goes ba-boom.

- Well, yes but why?

♪ Why, why, why ♪

♪ Why ♪

- Oh, I don't know why.

- [Computer] Roma, Roma, Roma.

- Ah, well, perhaps Roma knows.

- Hoobledoop, Hoobs.

- [Together] Hoobledoop, Roma!

- Now I understand

that you're finding out

all about the heart,

and that's why I've come

here to the doctor's.

- [Iver] Oh.

- Doctors are very

important Peeps, indeed.

They know all about what

happens inside bodies.

- So they know all

about hearts then?

- Absohoobalutely, Iver.

In fact, they use this

thing I have around my neck

to listen to hearts.

It's called a stethoscope.

- So how does it work, Roma?

- Well, Tula,

I'm listening to my heart now.

Ba-boom, ba-boom, ba-boom.

I've got my microphone

on this stand

so that you can

listen to it b*at too.

- Hoobacious!

Let's see if it

sounds like mine.

- Oh, that's hoobily groobily.

I'm going to order a stethoscope

from Hoobnet right away.

- But why does the

heart b*at, Roma?

What's it for?

- Oh, it's very important, Iver.

Our bodies are full of

this stuff called blood

that makes everything else work.

The heart pumps the blood

all around the body.

It's what keeps Hoobs

and Peeps alive.

- Aw, I can't wait for

our stethoscope to arrive.

I want to hear all our

hearts really loud.

Ba-boom, ba-boom,

ba-boom, ba-boom (laughs)!

That'd be hooby groovy,

Roma, it really would.

Roma, can we hear your

heart b*at again, please?

- Of course, Groove.

Here goes.

(heart thumping)

Fantabahooby, eh?

- Yeah.

- This is Roma Hoob

at the doctor's

going ba-boom, ba-boom, ba-boom.

Hooble toodle doo!

- [Together] Hooble toodle doo!

- So that's what a heart

is, a great big pump.

Oh, well, must get on.

(computer chirping)

- It's here, the

snuffiscope's here.

- Stethoscope, Groove!

I'll get it.

- Whatever.

Now we can listen to

heart beats all day.

Ba-boom, ba-boom,

ba-boom, ba-boom.

(cheerful music)

- Here it is!

- Oh, let me have a go.

All right then.

These bits go in the ears.

Here we are,

and this bits for the heart.

- Oh, I can't wait for this.

Ooh, it's cold.

- Oh, right.

(Groove panting)

Here we go.

(heart thumping)

(Groove exhales)

(laughs) How hooby

groovy is that?

Oh, oh, Iver, Iver, Iver!

Let me listen to

yours, please, come on.

- Oh, all right but hurry up.

- Okay.

(Iver panting)

(heart thumping)

Hooby galooby, Iver, your

heart's going like the clappers!

And it's really loud.

- Oh dear, do you

think it's all right?

- Oh, Iver, I'm not sure.

- Do you know what?

I think you should sit

down and do nothing, Iver.

- Oh, no Groove,

I think I should go and

pick more hooberberries

to take my mind off it.

Are you coming to help?

- [Together] What?

- No, I don't think so, Iver.

I don't want a fast

ba-boom like yours.

- All right, please yourselves.

(cheerful music)

- Oh, poor Iver.

I'm going to ask Hubba Hubba

what we should do, Groove.

(button boings)

(computer whizzing)

Are you all right, Hubba Hubba?

- Oh yes, Tula, I was just

trying to listen to my ba-boom.

It's not easy doing it

by yourself, you know.

- Well, I'm really worried

that Iver's ba-boom

is so much faster and

louder than mine or Grooves.

- Oh, oh, I don't believe it.

It's b*ating faster

and louder than ever!

- Don't worry, Iver.

- No, don't worry.

I've found a story on Hoobnet

that might make you

feel better, Iver.

Take a look.

(computer whizzing)

(whimsical music)

- [Narrator] Henry

Heart lived in a body,

much the same as yours and mine,

close to his friend,

Tummy Tucker.

He went, "Ba-boom,

ba-boom," day and night.

And although he liked

his job, he wasn't happy,

and Tummy Tucker

wasn't happy either.

Every day he would

receive large deliveries

of greasy chips and hamburgers

and crisps and sweets.

They filled him up and

made him feel very slow.

"Ugh," he groaned.

"I can't take all this."

"Neither can I,"

moaned Henry Heart.

Henry grew weaker and weaker,

and his ba-boom got

slower and slower.

"Baa-booom, baa-booom"

"Why don't you send a

message up to Brenda Brain?

"She'll know what to do."

So Henry mustered up all

the strength he could

and shouted, "SOS!"

Brenda Brain

responded instantly.

"What you both need

is healthy food!

"Hang in there Henry Heart.

"I'll sound the alarm bells."

(bells ringing)

The next day,

Tummy Tucker received a delivery

of cereal and brown toast.

Later, some fresh

vegetables arrived.

- [Groove] Hooby groovy.

- [Narrator] He

felt much better.

Day after day, the

healthy food would arrive,

and gradually Henry's

ba-boom got stronger.

"I'm working

properly," he cried.

"I feel much better!"

"So do I," said Tummy Tucker.

"Although I wouldn't mind

the odd chip now and then."

But Henry wasn't listening.

He was too busy going,

"Ba-boom, ba-boom, ba-boom."

- [Together] Ba-boom.

(computer whizzing)

- Iver, that's what

you need to do.

- What?

- Eat hoobloads

of hooberberries.

They're really

healthy for Hoobs,

and they are bound to

be good for your heart.

- Oh, (chuckles) right.

- Yeah, I'll go along with that.

(Groove humming)

(Groove chomping)

- I'm going to make

healthy heart badges

out of my red paper.

Groove, stop it!

Let Iver eat them.

(lips smacking)

- Right, let's have a listen.

(heart thumping)

- Well?

- Well, it's certainly

slowing down.

Yes, it's getting quieter.

- Is that because I'm

eating the hooberberries?

- Huh, or is it because

you're staying still, like me?

- [Computer] Hubba Hubba,

Hubba Hubba, Hubba.

- Well, Hoobs, I think

there's only one way

of finding out why Iver's heart

was b*ating faster than yours.

- Ask the Tiddlypeeps?

- Exactly!

- Right, I'll go.

- Oh no, Iver, no, no, no, no.

You stay here and sit down

and relax and do nothing.

And I'll just have another

one of these hooberberries

to keep my heart healthy.

(Groove chomping)

And Tula, you can finish

those badges later on,

I need you to get the

Motorettes singing.

(Iver laughing)

- [Tula] Oh, dear.

- Yee haw, lovely.

- Hoobledoop, Tiddlypeeps.

- [Together] Hoobledoop, Groove.

(heart thumping)

(Groove gasps)

- Listen to that.

- [Child] What?

- Your heart is b*ating loud

and fast and let me listen.

So is yours.

And you have difficulty

catching your breath

just like Iver.

Oh, you poor Tiddlypeeps.

Iver, these Tiddlypeeps have

the same problem as you.

Why is it your hearts are

b*ating so fast and loud?

- That is because we've

been running around.

- Well, why don't you

just stop running around

and then your heart

b*at will slow down?

- Because it's good to

run around, it's fun!

- Well, yes, I know it's

fun but you shouldn't do it

if it's bad for your

heart, should you?

- It's not bad for

our hearts, Groove.

- Running is good

for your heart.

- Oh, you mean when your

heart beats fast and loud

that's not bad for it?

- No, exercise makes

your heart strong.

- Hooby galooby.

Iver, did you hear that?

You don't have to worry.

It's good for your heart

to b*at fast and loud.

- [Iver] Oh!

- Oh, so if running around

is good for your heart,

then does that mean

that doing nothing

is bad for your heart?

- Only if you do

nothing all day.

- Huh.

- Oh.

- Oh, right.

Well, in that case I think I

better run all the way back

to the hoobmobile.

Hooble toodle doo!

- [Together] Hooble toodle doo!

(cheerful music)

- Oh, that was why your heart

was b*ating so quickly, Iver!

It was because you were

running around with a bucket!

- Hoobacious!

- So, you must have a

really healthy heart.

Here is your badge.

- Thanks, Tula.

(Groove panting)

- [Tula] What are

you doing, Groove?

- Slow down, it's

time for Hoob News.

- (gasping) I have to exercise.

I've been so busy

doing nothing all day,

I haven't exercised my

heart at all (panting).

- Neither have I.

(Tula panting)

- Well, since you both need

to exercise your hearts,

you can go up to the roof garden

and finish picking the

rest of the hooberberries.

- [Tula And Groove] Right.

- But you better be quick!

It's nearly time for Hoob News.

- [Computer] Hubba

Hubba, Hubba Hubba.

- Well, Hoobs, are you

ready with your news

for my great hoobapedia?

- [Together] Ready, Hubba Hubba!

- Then take it away.

(upbeat music)

- Hoobledoop whoop 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--

- Why is Iver's

chest going ba-boom?

First, Hubba Hubba found

us some pictures on Hoobnet

of drums that go boom.

- [Groove] But of course,

Iver didn't have a

drum in his chest.

- [Iver] The Tiddlypeeps told us

that everyone's

chest goes ba-boom

because everybody has a heart.

- [Groove] But we didn't know

why our hearts go ba-boom.

- [Tula] Then Roma told us

that our hearts pump blood

all around our bodies

and that's why we feel

the ba-boom in our chests.

- [Iver] But my ba-boom

was faster and louder

than everyone else's and

I wanted to know why.

- [Groove] Hubba Hubba

found a story that told us

that hearts need healthy

food to stay happy.

- [Tula] So Iver ate

lots of hooberberries.

- [Groove] But we still

didn't know why his heart

had been b*ating so

quickly and loudly.

- [Iver] Until the

Tiddlypeeps told us

that my heart b*at

was fast and loud

because I'd spent

all day running

around picking hooberberries!

- And if there's one thing

that hearts really love it's--

- [Together] Exercise!

- Absohoobylutely!

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

hooble toodle doo!

- [Together] Hooble toodle doo!

(Groove panting]

- Oh, Iver, is my heart

going ba-boom, yet?

I mean, ba-boom very

loudly and very fast?

- Ahem.

(chuckles)

(heart thumping)

- It is, it is!
