01x24 - Keeping Warm

Post by bunniefuu »

- Hooble-doop 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 Hoobopaedia.

Here they come!

♪ Hoobs ♪

(pastoral music)

- Oh how about this?

No, not that one.

(gasping)

- Hooby galoobie,

just look at that sky.

- And look at this Hoobo lily.

- And look at this

Heeble flower!

- Ooh, aren't you going

to pick flowers, Groove?

Groove?

- Hm?

Groove!

- Groove!

- What?

- Why do you keep

staring up at the sky?

- Oh, I was just

hoping to catch sight

of a passing Hoobmobile on

its way to another planet.

(sighing)

- You were Hooble-gazing.

- Yeah, yeah.

- We can't Hooble-gaze

now, Groove,

we've got to think of a

question for Hoob News.

- I know, why don't we do

some Hooble-gazing tonight?

- Oh yes!

- Yeah!

- That is a Hoobacious

idea, Groove.

- Thank you, Iver.

- We haven't

Hooble-gazed for ages.

- Yeah.

Hey, we should practice

our Hooble-gazing hop.

- Yes!

Just in case we see

a Hoobmobile whiz by!

- Okay, quickly then.

I'll pretend to

see a Hoobmobile,

and then we'll all do the

Hooble-gazing hop, right?

- Right.

- Ready?

- Ready!

- Ready!

- Ah, Hoobmobile, Hoobmobile,

whizzing through the sky!

- [All] Fly away Hoobmobile,

fly, fly, fly! (laughs)

- Ah, that was Hooby groovy.

I hope we get to do

it again tonight.

- Oh, well, so do I, Groove,

but now we must think up

a question for Hoob News.

Come on, let's get

back downstairs.

(laughing)

- Hoobmobile, Hoobmobile,

whizzing through

the sky. (laughs)

- The trouble about

Hooble-gazing on the Peep planet

is that it gets

really, really cold.

- Yes, Hooble-gazing

could be a very quivery,

shivery thing you know.

- What?

Oh, Hooby bother,

it won't be much fun

if we're all shivery

and quivery will it?

- No.

So, how can Hoobs keep warm

when they're Hooble-gazing?

(echoing voice)

- That's Hubba Hubba, you

must have hit on the question.

- How could a Hoobs keep warm

when they're Hooble-gazing?

I'll email Roma to see

what she can find out

about keeping warm for you,

because it's something every

Hoob will want to know.

- Yeah, especially

me, Hubba Hubba.

(laughing)

- Well Groove, you'd

better take a look

at what I can find on Hoobnet

to see if that'll

get you started.

Don't those Peeps

and Tiddlypeeps look

warm in the sun?

Oh, look at all the sunshine!

Yes, she looks very

warm in the sun too,

and they're so warm they've

had to lie down. (laughs)

Ooh, there's lots

of sunshine there.

He looks very warm in the sun

there, lovely warm sunshine.

- Hooby galoobie.

- Being out in the sunshine

definitely keeps you warm.

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

- That's it, that's the answer.

We need to Hooble-gaze

(laughs) in the sun.

Come on, last one

out's a Hooble-snoop!

- No, Groove, Groove, wait!

- What?

- You can't Hooble-gaze

when it's sunny!

You won't see a Hoobmobile

in the daytime, Groove.

Hoobmobiles only

show up at night.

- Yes, it's only at

night you can see

their twinkly musical Hoob

dust going whoosh, whoosh.

- Oh, Hooby bother.

So what will keep us

warm at night, what?

♪ Oh what, oh what, oh what ♪

♪ Oh what ♪

♪ Oh what, oh what, oh what ♪

♪ What, what, what ♪

(echoing voice)

- It's Hubba Hubba!

- Hooble-doop, Hoobs.

- Hooble-doop, Hubba Hubba!

- Have you found anything

that will keep you warm

while you Hooble-gaze?

- No.

The sun's warm, but the

sun doesn't come out

at Hooble-gazing time.

- That's very true, Iver.

Well, perhaps you should go

and visit some Tiddlypeeps.

I'm sure they know of

a way to keep warm.

- Of course, the Tiddlypeeps!

- I'll go!

- And I'll drive

you there, come on.

- And I'll put the Hooby

flowers in the Hooby studio.

- Seatbelt, Iver.

- Yes.

- [All] We're off to

the see the Tiddlypeeps!

- It's Groove!

- Hello, Groove!

- Hooble-doop, Tiddlypeeps.

Do you want to do a Hooby hello?

- Yes!

- Yes!

- [All] Hobble-doop,

Hobble-doop, whoop,

whoop, whoop!

- Do you think you could

help me with a question

we're trying to answer?

- We'll try.

- Well, one of the

things Hoobs like to do

is to Hooble-gaze.

- What's Hooble-gazing?

- Well, it's when Hoobs

go outside at night

and look up at the sky.

But you see, in Hoobland,

it's warm at night.

Hoobs get too cold going out

at night on the Peep planet.

So, do you know a

good way to keep warm?

- Keeping warm is easy!

- All you have to do

is put on warm clothes.

- Warm clothes? (laughs)

Hooby groovy.

- Yes.

- Will you show me?

- Of course!

- Come on!

- Look!

- So, could you tell me about

the clothes you're wearing?

- We put on jumpers.

- Jumpers are thick, wooly,

and come in lots of

different colors.

- [Girl] We can put a coat

on top of our jumpers,

they keep us really warm.

- And we can put a scarf on.

- And all these

clothes keep you warm?

- Yes!

- Yes!

- Hooby groovy!

- Hooby groovy, yes!

- Iver, order some warm

clothes from Hoobnet.

I think we should try them out.

- You can have this,

this'll keep you warm.

- Oh, thank you,

thank you Tiddlypeeps!

Well, Hooble-toodle-doo.

- Hooble-toodle-doo!

(laughing)

(fun music)

(laughing)

- Hey Tula, look what

the Tiddlypeeps gave me!

- (gasps) Oh, can I try

it on, please, Groove?

- Look, the warm clothes

have arrived from Hoobnet!

- Oh, there might be a really

Hooble-duper-duper scarf

in there for me.

- Yes, there is a coat, and

a scarf, and another scarf,

and--

- Oh, yes!

- Coat, oh, it's a jumper!

- I'm having this one!

- Yeah, that's just

your color, Tula.

- I can't wait to get

dressed up in all of these!

- (laughs) But how?

- Here's how!

(gasping)

- Ta-da!

(grunting)

- (screams) Oh no, it's the

great big jumper monster!

- Oh, dear.

(laughing)

- Oh, scary!

- All right, all right, stop.

Stop please or we won't be

ready for Hoob News, please.

Groove!

(laughing)

- Boo!

- Oh, Groove!

(laughing)

- Good one, Groove!

- All right, all right,

it's time to test this out.

- Yes, but where?

- Here's where!

- Oh, Hooby galoobie.

You know, I feel as warm

- (laughs) Let's practice

our Hooble-gazing hop.

- (laughs) Right!

- Right!

- Right!

- Right, ready?

- Ready!

- Ready!

(gasping)

- Hoobmobile, Hoobmobile,

whizzing through the sky!

- [All] Fly away,

Hoobmobile, fly, fly, fly.

- Oh.

- Oh, oh dear.

- It's really tiring doing the

hoppy bit in these clothes,

you get all puffy puffy.

- And it's impossible to

do the flappy flappy bits

with our arms.

- You're right.

We can't possibly do

the Hooble-gazing hop

in all this stuff.

- Yeah.

- Oh, Hooby bother.

- Oh, we must be able

to find a better way

to Hooble-gaze and keep warm.

- Yes, Iver, we must.

- But where?

♪ Where, where, where ♪

♪ Where ♪

(echoing voice)

- Here's where, Hoobs.

If your clothes are too

thick and heavy to wear

when you do a Hooble-gazing hop,

then take a look at this

story I found on Hoobnet.

It might give you another idea.

(peaceful music)

- [Narrator] Once upon

a time in a dark forest,

there was a little furry

creature called Tippy Toes.

Tippy Toes always tiptoed

through the forest

so she didn't make a sound.

- Tippy toe, tippy

toe, tippy tippy toe.

- [Narrator] But Tippy

Toes shared the forest

with someone else.

Stampy was a big loud

elf, with huge feet.

He liked to make as

much noise as he could.

But most of all,

he liked to stamp.

Stamp, stamp, stamp!

Poor Tippy Toes was

quite frightened

by all the noise Stampy made,

especially when he

stamped right next to her.

One day, it got very cold.

Poor little Tippy Toes huddled

under a bush shivering,

but then Stampy

came stamping by.

Stamp, stamp, stamp!

"What's the matter?"

he said gruffly.

"I'm c-c-c-cold,"

said Tippy Toes.

Stampy wasn't cold at all.

"I know what you

need to do," he said.

"You need to do some

stamping, come on."

Stampy stamped off,

stamp, stamp, stamp!

And Tippy Toes

tried to copy him.

At first, she wasn't very

good, but she soon got better.

"Stamp, stamp stamp," she cried.

- This is fun and

I'm not cold anymore.

- [Narrator] So from that day

on, every time she felt cold,

Tippy Toes would meet up

with her friend Stampy

and they would stamp,

stamp, stamp around

until they were

as warm as toast.

- [Tippy Toes] Goodbye!

- Well, that stamping

looked Hooby groovy.

- Yes, we should

definitely try it out

to see if it keeps us warm.

- Oh, Hooby groovy,

we found the answer!

- Yes, we're warm enough to

Hooble-gaze now. (laughs)

- Yeah, even if it's

made us all puffy puffy.

- Let's tell Hubba Hubba.

- Yeah, oh no!

- What is it, Tula?

- Well, I don't

feel so warm now.

- Me neither.

- You're right!

I feel much cooler than

when we were stamping.

- That means we're going

to have to keep jumping

and stamping to keep warm.

- Oh, how can we jump and stamp

and do the Hooble-gazing

hop at the same time?

- Hooby bother.

- And Hoobie blow.

What are we going to do?

(echoing voice)

- Oh, it's Roma, she'll have

found a way of keeping warm.

- Well, I hope it's not

as tiring as stamping.

- Hooble-doop, Hoobs.

- Hooble-doop, Roma!

- Now, I heard from

Hubba Hubba earlier

that you're trying to find

out ways of keeping warm.

So I've come here to a big,

bright, and very fiery bonfire.

- Yeah.

- Oh.

- It's a cold night,

but it's lovely and warm

here by the bonfire, perfect

for toasting marshmallows.

(laughing)

- Hooby galoobie!

That bonfire looks

Hoobaciously pretty, Roma.

- Well, yes it is, Iver.

But remember, you must be

extremely careful with bonfires.

- Oh yes.

- They can be very,

very dangerous.

If they're hot enough to

toast my marshmallows,

they're hot enough to burn you.

(gasping)

So, take care, and this is

the most important thing,

always have a grown-up with

you when you're near a fire.

- Yes.

- (sighs) But when it

comes to keeping you warm,

there's nothing

better than a bonfire

on a cold winter's night.

This is Roma Hoob, reporting

from a lovely, cozy bonfire.

With some overcooked

marshmallows.

(laughing)

Hooble-toodle-doo.

- Hooble-toodle-doo!

(laughing)

- Oh, Hooby galoobie.

- Well, that bonfire

certainly looked very warm.

- Yes, but how do

we get a bonfire?

- Oh, I've no idea, Tula.

- Oh, how do we get an idea

when we haven't got one?

A Hooby think!

- Well, did anyone

have an idea about

how we can get a bonfire?

- Yes, I did, I did!

We could build a bonfire

on the roof garden,

then we'd be warm

enough to Hooble-gaze.

- Oh, Groove, you are

a Hoobly-groobly Hoob.

- No, wait, wait, wait, wait!

The roof garden isn't really

big enough for a bonfire.

Some of the plants

might get burnt.

- Hmm, dangerous.

- Yes, dangerous.

- Yeah, Hooble-gazing

is supposed to be

fun, not dangerous.

- Dangerous.

- Dangerous.

- What can we do?

(echoing voice)

- Hooble-doop Hoobs, are you

nearly ready for Hoob News?

- No, Hubba Hubba,

we've tried everything

and we can't come up with a

single way of keeping warm

while we're Hooble-gazing.

- Oh, dear.

Well, you'd better go

and ask the Tiddlypeeps

if they know any other

ways of keeping warm.

- The Tiddlypeeps, of course!

Come on, Groove, let's get

this Hoobmobile moving!

- Wakey wakey, little

Motorettes! (laughs)

- Hooble-doop, Groove!

- Now, we've all been trying

to find ways of keeping warm,

but none of them is

really quite right

for when you're

out Hooble-gazing.

Do you know any more

ways to keep warm?

- Yes, blowing on your

hands keeps them warm.

(gasping)

- Really?

- Yes, watch, like this. (blows)

- All right. (blows)

Oh, I'm almost out

of breath. (laughs)

- Keep going.

- That's Hooby groovy,

but it's only my Hooby

paws that are warm.

Do you know any other

ways of keeping warm?

- Have you tried a hot potato?

- A hot potato, what's that?

- Here, I'll show you.

You put your lips on

someone's back like this.

- Yes?

- And then you

blow really gently.

(laughing)

- Oh, thank you, Hedi.

That made me feel all kind of

fuzzy, in a Hooby kind of way.

Hey, Tula, Iver,

did you see that?

- Yes.

- Yes.

- I got a hot potato. (laughs)

- You're lucky. (laughs)

- Oh, thank you, Tiddlypeeps.

A hot potato will be

perfect for Hooble-gazing.

Better get back to

the Hoobmobile now

and I'll try the hot potato

out on Tula and Iver.

Hooble-toodle-doo!

- Hooble-toodle-doo!

(fun music)

- Oh, Iver, how

Hoobly-groobly was that?

- Hey, who wants a hot potato?

- Oh, me, no, me, me first.

- Me, me, me, oh...

(blowing)

(laughing)

- Hooby galoobie, that's

Hoobaciously warm!

- Yeah.

- Me next, me next, me, me, me!

- I'll do it!

(laughing)

(blowing)

- Oh!

Oh, that is just what we need

when we're Hooble-gazing.

- Yeah, we can do hot

potatoes in between

doing the Hooble-gazing

hop. (laughs)

- Quick, time to get

into the Hooby studio!

- Oh, and I think we should wear

these Hoobily-groobily

scarves for Hoob News.

- Well now, Hoobs, are you

ready to give me your Hoob News

for my Hoobopaedia?

- We're ready, Hubba Hubba!

Hooble-doop 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:

- How can Hoobs keep warm

when they're Hooble-gazing?

- [Tula] We found out that

the sun can keep you warm.

- [Groove] But the sun is

only out during the day,

so that's no good

for Hooble-gazing.

- [Iver] Jumpers,

coats, and scarves

are really snug and warm.

- [Groove] But you can't

move around enough to do

the Hooble-gazing hop

when you're wearing them.

- [Iver] Hubba Hubba found

us a story, and we found out

that jumping and stamping

makes you very warm.

- [Groove] But it's a

very puffy puffy thing.

- [Tula] And you can't

do it when you're doing

the Hooble-gazing hop.

Roma showed us a

Hooble-dooble-duper bonfire,

but bonfires are dangerous.

- Dangerous.

- [Iver] But the Tiddlypeeps

came up with the perfect way

to keep warm when

you're Hooble-gazing.

It's called the hot potato!

- The hot potato!

- [All] Hoob, Hoob, hooray!

- Fantabby Hooby!

I can't wait to try it out on

Auntie Hattie Hoob. (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!

- Hooble-toodle-doo!

- Right, time for Hooble-gazing!

- Oh, can I have a hot

potato before I go, Tula?

- Of course you can,

Groove. (laughs)

(blowing)

- Oh that's lovely

roasty toasty.
