Hooble doop, tiddly peeps!
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 Hoobopaedia.
Here they come!
♪ You know who the Hoobs are ♪
♪ Iver, Groove, and Tula ♪
♪ We're Hoovs! ♪
♪ And they're ready to go ♪
♪ Now the wheels are turning, ♪

- Oh, here we come!
- Hey!
- Oh!
♪ The Hoobs are here
so what do you say? ♪
[All] Hoobs!
- (murmurring)
Download to the printer.
Ha ha ha ha.
We have e-mail!
- Oh!
Who's it for?
- Is it for me?
Is it for me?
- It's for me, actually, Iver.
It's from my friend
Gloopy in Hoobland.
He's a great collector,
just like I am.
- Oh.
And what does Gloopy
have to say then, Groove?
- Oh!
Gloopy's making a collection
of soft and furry things
from other planets, and he
wants me to bring him back
a soft furry thing
when I next go home.
- Oh.
- Whoa!
- I don't think we're
going to get much help
from Groove today, Tula.
- You know, I was just
about to go collecting
but I think I'll have a
look in my clutter cupboard
and see if I can find
what Gloopy needs.
And if I'm very lucky,
there'll be something
soft and furry in my collection
of soft and furry things.
Now, Oh!
Ooby Galooby!
There are Hoobloads of sticky
purple Hoobychews in here!
(laughing)
(chewing)
Oh, there's a whole bag.
(laughing)
- Have you found anything
soft and furry yet, Groove?
- Uh.. no, Iver, no I haven't.
- Oh.
Should I help?
- No, no, it's all right.
I've got it under control.
Here, what about this?
Gloopy will love
this, it's perfect.
- Yes, well.
It's not perfect, Groove, look.
There's a purple
mark on his tummy.
- Oh!
- Oh, Hooby bother.
- Hooby blow!
- What ever's the
matter, Groove?
- Oh, I found the
softiest, furriest thing
in my collection of
soft and furry things.
Gloopy will love
it, but it's ruined.
Ruined!
- Look, it's only a small
purple mark, Groove.
I'm sure Gloopy won't mind.
- Oh, he will, Iver.
He's like me, he's very
fussy about his collections.
- Maybe we can get rid of it.
- Yes, let's think.
How can we make the purple mark
on Gloopy's bear disappear?
(Hubba Hubba alarm rings)
- Oh, we've hitched
the question!
- How can we make the purple
mark on Goopy's bear disappear?
What a fascinating question
for today's Hoobnews!
I've been meaning to create
a disappearing section
for my great
Hoobopaedia for ages.
I'll e-mail Roma and get
her working on the problem.
- Can you see if there's
anything on Hoobnet
about disappearing, Hubba Hubba?
To get us started?
- Of course, Iver.
Let me see... Ah ha!
Here we go.
(upbeat music)
[Hubba Hubba] Oh, look at
that great big puddle, Hoobs!
It's been raining, you see?
It's been raining quite a lot.
See, everywhere's wet.
Now, the sun comes
up and it's gone.
Do you see?
- Oh, good.
There's no water left anywhere.
It's all dry now.
So, the sun has made all
that water disappear!
- Huh..
- Do you think the sun
might make the mark
on Gloopy's bear disappear, too?
- Well, it's worth a try.
- Up to the Hooby roof garden!
- Come on, Groove.
- Yeah.
[Iver] Move Groove!
- (muffled) Coming!
- Come on, sun, you can do it!
Make that purple mark disappear.
- Well, is it working?
- Um.. we're not sure.
- It's not working, is it?
Oh, I knew it.
What am I gonna do?
- Um, perhaps Gloopy could
put it in a collection
of things with purple marks on.
- Things with purple marks on?
Who in their right Hooby
mind would have a collection
called that, hey?
(laughing)
- In those pictures,
the sun was only
making water
disappear, wasn't it?
- Yes, and water is wet.
- Yeah, and this mark
is as dry as can be.
Dry and purple.
- Which means, the sun
will never ever ever
make it disappear.
- Hooby bother, Hooby
bother, Hooby blow.
- (gasps) Cabblegrowth!
If this purple mark
isn't made of water,
it must be made
of something else.
But what?
♪ What, oh what ♪
♪ What ♪
♪ Oh what ♪
- I'm not sure what.
(Hubba Hubba alarm rings)
- Oh, that's Hubba Hubba.
Maybe he'll know.
- (sighs)
- I don't know what that
purple mark is made of.
But, I've found a story
on Hoobnet that might
help us make it disappear.
Cheer up, Groove!
Take a look at this.
[Narrator] Once there
was a big fat pencil case
bursting with drawing things.
Felt pens, crayons, a ruler,
a sharpener, an eraser
and two pencils called
Scribble and Sketch.
Scribble and Sketch
longed to draw a picture
all by themselves.
So one afternoon, when the
pencil case had been left open,
they crept out and ran across
the desk to find some paper.
Scribble drew a picture
of a space rocket
flying into space.
- Wow!
[Narrator] And Sketch
drew racing cars zooming
around the track.
"My picture is much
better than Sketch's"
boasted Scribble.
"No it's not!" replied Sketch.
"Mine is far better
than your's!"
"But a rocket is more
exciting than a racing car."
said Scribble.
"Nonsense!" Cried Sketch.
Then, Scribble
started to scribble
all over Sketch's picture.
And Sketch started to
sketch all over Scribble's.
"Stop!" Cried the ruler.
"You've ruined them both."
"I'm sorry," said Scribble.
"Me, too," said Sketch.
"But what can we do about it?"
"Leave it to me!"
Squeaked the eraser.
She lept into action,
rubbing out all
the horrible marks
until they had
completely disappeared.
And there were the
two beautiful pictures
all ready and waiting
for the felt pens
to color them in.
Sketch and Scribble
promised that the next time
the pencil case was left open,
they would draw a
picture together.
- Yes.
- All your troubles
are at an end, Groove.
I have just ordered you
a Hoobaly Groobaly eraser
from Hoobnet.
- Ah, Hooby Groovy.
(delivery alarm)
- Here it is!
- That was quick.
- Yeah, now we can rub
out the purple mark.
- And we'll have the
answer for Hoobnews.
- And I can go collecting.
- All right now, little bear.
Let me give you a good rub.
(humming)
- (mumbling)
- Try rubbing a little harder.
- I don't understand.
It worked in the story.
- Ah, but in the story it
made pencil marks disappear.
Pencil marks on paper.
- And this mark on Gloopy's bear
was definitely not
made with a pencil.
It was made with something else.
- But what?
♪ But what what ♪
♪ What ♪
(Hubba Hubba alarm rings)
- I really haven't the
faintest idea what.
Have you, Groove?
- (gulps)
No, Hubba Hubba.
- But I think the
Tiddlypeeps may be able
to give you some advice.
- Oh yes, the Tiddlypeeps
might know all about
making things disappear.
- Can I go please?
- Of course you can, Tula.
Groove, it's your turn to drive.
- (mumbles)
Oh, wait for me!

- Hoobledoop, Tiddlypeeps.
- Hoobledoop, Tula.
- Do you want to
do a Hooby hello?
- Yes!
Hoobledoop, hoobledoop
Woo woo woo!
- What are you doing?
- I'm gonna do a magic trick.
- A magic trick?
Hooby Galooby.
I don't suppose you
have any magic tricks
that make things
disappear, do you?
- Yes, I do.
- (gasps)
That's Hoobly Groobly!
Will you show me?
- Of course!
- Oh thanks.
I'm going to watch
you very closely
to see how it's done.
(cheerful music)
- Say the magic words, Joe!
- Abra Kadabra.
- Amazing!
Hooby Galooby, it's disappeared!
I have never seen such
a Hoobly Groobly trick.
Well done.
Now I know how to
make things disappear.
Um, what was the
magic word again?
[Children] Abra Kadabra!
- Of course, right.
I'm going to get back
to the Hoobmobile now
and make the mark on
Glooby's bear disappear.
Thanks, Tiddlypeeps,
and Hooble toodle doo!
- Hooble toodle doo!
(Cheerful music)
- Ah Groove, right,
um, here it goes.
(grunting)
- Oh, well what are you
doing to Gloopy's bear?
- I'm making the purple
mark disappear, of course.
- But you're just squashing him.
Gloopy didn't ask for a soft
furry squashed thing, did he?
Oh.
- A magic trick!
I know, we'll put Gloopy's
bear in a special box.
- Well, if it's a magic
trick, then we need
a magic wand.
- Oh, you know.
I've got just the thing.
- Come on little bear.
Good box!
Now then, in you pop.
- Ha ha!
Are you ready?
- Mhmm
- Abra Kazebra
(dings)
There.
- No, Iver, wrong word.
Give me the wand, please.
- Abra Kadabra!
(Dings twice)
- That might have been
the right word, Tula,
but the mark is
still there, look!
- Oh look, let me do it.
You've got to give it
more, you know, Hooby Umph.
Just close the lid, here we go.
Thank you, Tula.
Abra Kadabra!
(Dings three times)
Should have done the trick.
(gasping)
- Hooby looby!
It worked!
- Oh, no it didn't!
I wanted the teeny tiny
purple mark to disappear,
not the whole bear.
Oh, this is too bad.
- Oh, don't get your twizzle
toft in a twist, Groove.
(gasps)
Oh look!
He just fell through
the bottom of the box.
- (laughing) Ah, thank you Tula.
So, magic's not
the answer, is it?
- No.
But here's Roma!
Maybe she'll know how to do it.
- Hoobledoop, Hoobs!
- Hoobledoop, Roma!
- Now, Hubba Hubba
tells me you're trying
to get a nasty stain
out of something.
So, I've come here
to a laundrette.
- What's that spinning
thing behind you, Roma?
- That's a washing
machine, Iver.
A washing machine can make all
your dirty marks disappear.
- Oh, hang on.
It's not another
magic trick, is it?
- No, no it's not Groove.
The Peeps put
their dirty clothes
into these washing machines.
- Why do they do that, Roma?
- Well, this is the
clever bit, Tula.
They add some of
this washing powder,
switch on the machine,
and lots of hot
water washes into it.
It mixes with the
washing powder,
and washes all the
dirty marks off.
- Hooby Galooby.
I need a washing machine!
- Then you need to go
to a laundrette, Groove.
There are Hoobloads of washing
machines in a laundrette.
Just pop down to
your nearest one
and stick your little
bear in the wash.
- Right, I will.
Thanks, Roma!
- You're welcome, Groove.
This is Roma Hoob, washing oh-
I mean reporting for Hoobnews.
Hooble toodle doo.
Now, where's the other sock?
Oh Hooby bother.
Don't tell me it's disappeared!
[Iver, Groove And Tula]
Hooble toodle doo!
- Right, I'm off
to the laundrette.
Come on, soft furry
purple-marked bear.
You're gonna get clean.

Are you okay?

didn't disappear, then?
- No, no it did not.
Look.
[Tula] Oh dear.
Poor Groove.
- It's not me you want to
feel sorry for, it's Gloopy.
- Whatever made this mark
must be incredibly strong.
- Yes, if we knew what it was
maybe we could work out
how to make it disappear.
Now, what could it be?
(Hubba Hubba alarm rings)
- Well, Hoobs, if
you haven't managed
to shift that stubborn
stain, then all I can suggest
is another trip to
the Tiddlypeeps.
- Yes!
You go this time, Groove.
And take Gloopy's bear with you.
- Oh, what's the point?
It's hopeless.
- You can't give up
now, I'll drive you.
Come on.

(pop)
- Hoobledoop, Tiddlypeep.
- Hoobledopp, Groove.
- What are you doing?
- I'm dying one of my
white t-shirts purple.
- How are you doing that, then?
- By putting it in this bucket
of purple-colored water.
- Oh, purple-colored
water, let me see.
Oh, look at that!
(laughing)
Well, maybe you can
help me because I want
to help this polar
bear white all over,
but it's go this purple
mark on his tummy.
Look at that, that's
not very nice.
Could I dye it white to make
the purple mark disappear?
- Let's have a look.
- Well, I tried washing
it but the stain
just wouldn't go away.
- What about making it
purple all over instead?
Then you wouldn't see the stain.
- Hey, that's a
Hooby groovy idea.
- It is!
- If I put this white
bear in this bucket,
he'll turn purple all
over, is that right?
- That's right, let's try!
- Yeah, okay.
Hooble toodle doo, little bear!
Good luck!
Right, is that it?
Should I take him out now?
- No, you have to wait.
- Oh, right, okay.
(fast-paced music)
Oh, okay then.
- Wait, Groove!
You have to wait for it to dry!
Otherwise, you'll get
purple all over your paws.
- Oh, all right.
(fast- paced music)
Hooby Galooby!
Look, it worked!
(laughs)
And the purple mark
completely disppeared.
- It looks great.
- You Tiddlypeeps are so clever.
Thank you very much.
Now I can take this
bear to my friend Gloopy
as a present.
Hooble toodle doo!
- Hooble toodle doo!
- Purple.
That stain was made
by something purple.
- Look look look look look!
Isn't he the Hooby
grooviest soft furry thing
you've ever seen?
Gloopy is gonna do handstands
of Hooby happiness
when he gets this.
- And we've answered
the question
just in time for Hoobnews.
Come on, into the Hooby studio.

(laughter)
(Hubba Hubba alarm rings)
- Are you ready to give
me your news, Hoobs?
- Yes, Hubba Hubba.
- Then, take it away!
(Upbeat drumming)
- Hooble doop to all
you Hoobs out there.
- Welcome to Hoobnews, a news
show for Hoobs everywhere.
I'm Iver.
- I'm Tula.
- And I'm Groove.
- And today we've been
asking the question
- How can we make
the purple mark
on Gloopy's bear disappear?
[Tula] First, we saw
some picture of the sun
making puddles of
water disappear.
[Groove] But he purple
mark wasn't made of water
so it didn't go away.
[Iver] Then we
listened to a story
about an eraser making
pencil scribbles
disappear.
[Tula] We tried using an eraser
on the purple mark
[Groove] But it
wasn't made of pencil,
so that didn't work either.
[Tula] So I went to
see some Tiddlypeeps
and they showed me how to do
a magic disappearing trick.
Abra Kadabra!
[Groove] But it just
didn't seem to work
when we tried it
on Gloopy's bear.
[Iver] Then Roma
told us all about
washing things in
washing machines.
[Groove] So I
washed Gloopy's bear
but the purple mark
just wouldn't disappear.
[Iver] There was only
one thing for it.
We went to ask the Tiddlypeeps
for some more help.
[Groove] And they showed me how
to dye Gloopy's bear
purple all over.
Doesn't he look Hooby Groovy?
And you can't see the
purple mark at all,
it's completely disappeared.
- And, I think he's Hoobacious
now that he's purple.
(laughter)
I wouldn't mind
one myself, Groove.
- I'll see what I
can do, Hubba Hubba.
- (laughs) 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!
- Hooble toodle doo!
- You know, we never found out
what made that purple mark
in the first place, did we?
- Hmm, I have a feeling
these sticky, gooey
purple Hoobychews might
have had something
to do with it.
- Ah, yes, well, um.
- You mean they got mixed
up with Gloopy's bear
and stained it?
- Yes.
What do you think, Groove?
Do you remember having
some purple Hoobychews
all by yourself?
- Uh..possibly.
- Well, not to worry.
They won't be causing
trouble any longer.
- Why not?
- Tula and I are going
to make them disappear.
Come on.
- Oh!
