On the Road Hoof and Safety with Nuzzle and Scratch

Thousands of hopeful safety rangers

are queuing up to be chosen for CBeebies' very own safety hoof camp.

But with only two places, we have to choose the best.

Who will they be?

THEY LAUGH

Nuzzle and Scratch?

BOTH: Safety is fun!

# Here we are, Nuzzle and Scratch

# Best by far, Nuzzle and Scratch

# Oh, we're alpaca safety rangers

# Investigating dangers

# No two others can match Nuzzle and Scratch

# Nuzzle and Scratch. #

THEY MAKE CAR NOISES

Beep-beep, beep-beep, road hog!

Hey, Scratch, look how fast my lorry goes!

Oh, wow! Not as fast as my sports car!

I'm driving a sports car, I'm probably an estate agent.

THEY MAKE CAR NOISES

NUZZLE LAUGHS

Ahem!

Yeah! You sound funny, Scratch.

Oh, do I?

-Ah!

-Uh-oh.

What's going on here then, boys?

Ah, well, Miss Mulberry, er...

We were having a race...

and I won! Does that mean I get a rosette?

Oh, please!

The first thing you need to get, my furry safety rangers,

is the toy ambulance.

-Oh.

-Poor Norris needs to get to hospital!

Oh! Oh, no!

Get well soon, Norris!

We did not mean to hurt you, it was an accident!

See, that's the thing, boys!

Car drivers don't mean to hurt other people.

It's just that sometimes they do hurt them

because they can't see them in time to stop.

So, safety rangers need to learn

to stay very, very safe near roads.

So, it's a good job that today's safety mission is all about...

Fur balls!

Rosettes!

Ro-o-o...

Rosettes...

..o-o-o...

-Roads.

-Oh.

Time to activate the safety hoovie.

OK. Yeah, I thought she was going to say rosettes with the "Ro..." thing.

-Then it was roads, you know.

-Coming. Bye, lorry.

-Come along, boys.

-Coming, Miss Mulberry.

That's it.

Are we ready for this safety hoovie?

-Yeah.

-Yep, yep-yep-yep.

Here we go.

Hey, cool safety rangers.

Roads are the carriers of many splendid vehicles,

travelling up and down the country.

But they can be dangerous.

Always hold hands with a grown-up when walking near roads

and no matter what, never run out into a road.

Oh, it's lucky they were holding hands.

Yes, yes. Always hold hoovies when near a road.

To cross a road safely,

find a spot where you can see up and down the road clearly.

Look both ways and listen.

When are sure that nothing is coming,

walk quickly and carefully across.

Keep looking and listening all the time.

Holding hoovies all the way to the other side. Hmm, yes.

Scratch, is this one of yours?

What? No it's not one of mine, it's one of...

-Pay attention, boys!

-OK.

When it's dark, drivers can't see you.

Wear bright clothes and be seen.

I'll leave you with a joke.

Why did the chicken cross the road?

I don't know.

-To get to the other side...safely, of course.

-Yes. Very good.

THEY LAUGH

Get to the other side! Ha-ha-ha!

That's really funny.

SHE LAUGHS

Yeah. Yeah.

SHE CLEARS HER THROAT

OK, safety rangers.

Those were some of the hazards that you should look out for

when you're near the road.

Yeah, I know, Miss Blueberry. We were watching.

Yeah, we were watching just as closely as I watch my fur for fleas.

-Well, I think you've missed one, there.

-What?

HE SCREAMS

Anyhow, I'm glad to hear that you were listening

because it's time to be...

ALARM BLARES

..tested.

-Tested?

-Nuzzle...

Run!

We cant's be tested. There might be difficult questions

and stuff we don't know the answer to that makes us look like twits.

I'm not a twit. I cannot handle this.

But, boys, I test you after every safety hoovie

and you always love it.

We do?

Yes, boys, you do.

By now you must have guessed, we really love a test.

I've got more than just one hoovie.

And this dance is really groovy.

# Oh, safety mama, safety mama... #

Let's play... Name That Hazard.

So, my little fury alpacas, plant your hoovies on your steering wheels

and if you spot a hazard, make a noise.

HE MAKES AN ENGINE NOISE

By beeping your horn, Scratch.

Oh yeah, sorry.

-HORN TOOTS

-There we go.

And you can shout "beep-beep" if you think you spot a hazard.

So, boys, here we are by the road. Can you spot the first hazard?

-HORN TOOTS

-Oh, that is horrible.

The little girl isn't going to be able to play with the ball again

if a car comes along and squashes it.

Well, yes, Scratch, the ball might get squashed,

-but what about the little girl?

-Oh, oh...

HORN TOOTS

She could get squashed, too,

if she ran out into the road after that ball.

Stay on the pavement, little girl.

Quite right, Nuzzle. getting hit by a car is a horrible hazard.

Roads are for cars and pavements are for people,

but sometimes people have to cross the road.

-HORN TOOTS

-Miss Gooseberry, Miss Gooseberry! I spy a hazard.

Ooh, well done, Scratch. What hazard is it?

Well, there are two people.

And that is a hazard because...?

Because they might eat all the sponge fingers, of course.

Well, that wasn't quite the hazard that I had in mind.

HORN TOOTS Please ask me, Miss Jollyberry.

All right then, Nuzzle. What do you think the hazard is?

Well, the little girl is going to try to cross the road to see her Granddad

without holding hands with an adult. That's very dangerous.

Well done, Nuzzle, that's right.

Now let's see if we can spot our third and final hazard.

HORN TOOTS Hazard, hazard!

Yes, Nuzzle.

There are cars - lots of them - on the road.

But what's so dangerous about that?

You need to wear bright clothes in the dark so that drivers can see you.

I'm right, aren't I, Miss Mildewberry?

Let's see, shall we?

That's my boy.

ALARM BLARES

Ooh, you know what that alarm means, boys.

Erm, it's time to visit Norris in hospital?

-Well, we will be seeing Norris later...

-OK.

..but that alarm means that it's time for Hoof Camp.

'Hoof Camp.'

Welcome to my state of the art Hoof Camp training hub.

And this, safety rangers, is a flip chart.

THEY GASP

Oh, wow! A flip chart.

And now it's time to learn a rhyme.

Oh, oh, oh, oh. I've got one we can learn. OK, here it goes...

CLEARS HIS THROAT

We are the perfect match, he's Nuzzle and I'm Scratch.

Ah, see! Groovy hoovie.

That was great, Scratch,

but let's see if we can learn my rhyme.

OK.

RAPPING WITH BEAT-BOX Never run across roads and don't be a fool

Stay on the pavement and you'll be cool, yeah.

GIGGLING

That was beautiful, boys.

-Such depth, such feeling.

-Yes.

Did you join in, too?

Welcome to Mulberry's mini world.

There's a park and a road and here are some houses.

It's a great place to live.

Oh, I want to live in Mulberry's mini world.

He-he, you're too big. He-he-he.

Now, who do you think lives in this house?

Oh, oh, oh, a nice lady with lots of rosettes?

-No. This is Norris' house.

-Oh.

-He's home from the hospital now.

And later on, he wants to go to his favourite park.

Oh, it's Norris. Oh, Norris, I've missed you so much.

I've missed you more.

-No, I've missed you more.

-No, I've missed you more.

-No, I've missed you more.

-Stop it.

I think we've all missed Norris.

And he must never get hurt in the road again.

We must make sure that his trip to the park is a safe one.

Yes, that's right. Oh! Miss Strawberry... Miss Raspberry...

What is it, Scratch?

Miss Gooseberry, Norris should not be on the road on his own.

That's right. So it's very lucky that we have Norris' mummy here.

-Tallulah.

-Norris and his mummy are going to walk along the pavement.

Norris and his mummy will be holding hoovies.

Ooh, now, Norris' favourite ball has just rolled into the road.

What should Norris do?

Erm, well, I don't think Norris should do anything, Miss Blackberry.

The thing is, then his ball will get run over by the car.

Woah, woah, woah!

I don't want poor Norris to get squashed, Miss Mulberry!

Oh, goodness me, no.

No, no no. So he should stay on the pavement

holding hoovies with his mummy.

That's absolutely right.

Balls and toys can be replaced, but a squashed alpaca

or a squashed safety ranger can never, never be replaced.

Now, Norris wants to go and play in the park.

How do you think Norris should get there?

And remember, the park is across the road.

Oh, oh, oh! A magical spaceship!

No! Norris's mummy should find a good place to cross

where she can see all around.

Somewhere where there are no parked cars

and no corners to block their view.

Well, be very careful, Norris. Hold in tight to your mummy's hoovie.

So, my super safety rangers,

what do you think Norris and his mummy should do now?

They must keep holding hoovies.

They must look both ways and listen for traffic

to make sure that it has stopped.

And then, when they have checked it is safe to cross,

they must walk and keep looking and listening

-until they are all the way to the other side.

-Yes.

That's absolutely right. Well done, my furry safety rangers.

Now, I've got one more question for you.

What if Norris and his mummy go to the park and it gets dark?

Hmm... Ooh! They turn into pumpkins.

What should they have with them to wear

so that car drivers can see them on their way home?

Um, um, er... Oh! Something very bright.

-Oh yeah, so cars can see you when it's night.

-Yes.

There's only one thing for it. It's time to...

Pick An Alpaca.

Yes, it's time to pick an alpaca. Which one will it be?

Will it be Nuzzle, the fluffiest alpaca in town?

Or will it be Scratch, the scruffiest alpaca in the world?

Let's find out.

-Pick me.

-Pick me.

-Pick me.

-Pick me.

-Pick me.

-Pick me, pick me, pick me!

I'm going in! He-he-he.

Safety ranger Scratch, you have been picked

for today's very important safety mission.

You have been chosen to go to the roadside

and spot three hazards we've learnt about today.

HE GULPS

I'll be coming with you, of course,

because you should never be near a road on your own.

-Nuzzle...

-Huh!

It's your job to guide Scratch safely through his mission.

-Do you understand?

-Yes, Miss Mulberry.

-Let the mission begin!

-OK.

Close-io. Ha-ha-ha-ha!

OK, here I am at the edge of the road.

There are lots of fast cars, Nuzzle.

Where is my first hazard?

Stand back and make sure you are on the pavement. Where's Miss Mulberry?

-I don't know.

-Oh, Scratch, I couldn't find you.

You shouldn't be out here alone.

Hold hoovies and handies with Miss Chocoberry, Scratch,

before you go anywhere at all. Over and out.

OK. Hoovie handies.

Oh! Oh, look, somebody's lost their balloon.

-I should get it for them.

-Oh.

OK. On your marks, get set... Don't go!

What did you say? Don't go?

Never run out in the road, Scratch.

Oh, of course, I remember our safety rhyme.

Never run across roads, don't be a fool,

stay on the pavement and you'll be cool.

Ha-ha. Miss Mulberry, please will you get the balloon for me?

HE GIGGLES

Thank you. Thank you.

Ooh. Ticky-tick.

First mission accomplished. One alpaca, one balloon

and Miss Fruityberry safe on the pavement.

Over and out.

Ha-ha. Oh. I'm so glad you got over your terrible accident, Norris.

You must never play near roads again.

It's much safer to play in the park or in your own garden.

Ha, little Norris.

OK, Nuzz, what is my second safety challenge?

-Eh?

-Nuzz? Nuzz?

Nuzz, are you there?

Oh, you have to get to the other side of the road safely.

Like the chicken in that joke.

Mission impossible! No spaceship in sight. Over and out.

Now, what did we learn in safety camp?

Oh, yeah, I have to hold hands with a grown-up.

Holdie handies. The grown-up will find a safe place to cross

with no parked cars.

-This looks like a safe place.

-Yeah... Oh, yeah.

I could use some help here, Nuzzle. Over and out.

Oh, erm, you need to hold hands.

We're already holding hands.

Mrs Loganberry has found a safe place to cross,

but what comes next?

Oh, you must look both ways, listen for traffic

and make sure it's stopped and when it's safe to cross,

you must walk and look and listen.

OK. All the way to the other side.

Please, Mrs Mulberry, can we cross the road now?

We certainly can, but first we need to check again

that nothing's coming.

So we need to look both ways and listen.

-All clear?

-Yeah.

-Keep looking and listening.

-All the way to the other side.

Yay! Mission accomplished, captain Nuzzle.

I am now ready for hazard number three.

NUZZLE GIGGLES

Oh, I can't see you, Scratch, or Miss Blueberry.

Where have you gone?

Of course you can see me, Nuzzle.

No, I can't.

Yes, you can.

-No, I can't.

-Yes, you can.

Honestly, how can I see you in the dark

when you're wearing such dark clothes?

Oh, oh, dark clothes, that's it. Hazard number three spotted.

You need to wear very bright clothes when it's dark or night,

so cars can see you when there's not much light.

Safety rangers, do you want to join in, too?

Wear clothes that are very, very bright...

So cars can see you when there's not much light.

Here you are, Scratch, this one's for you.

Oh, thanks. I'm not sure this is quite my colour, Miss Raspberry.

Florescent yellow has never really suited me.

Put your jacket on, Scratch, don't be a fool,

it's better to be safe than worry about looking cool.

Oh, I seem to be a poet. Ha-ha-ha.

Right you are, captain Nuzzle. Over and out.

Bye.

Oh! Ticky, ticky, tick-tick.

SCRATCH GIGGLES

It gives me great pleasure to present this road safety rosette

to our number one safety ranger, Scratch.

Ah-ha. Thank you, thank you, Miss Moodleboodle.

I couldn't have done it without you, though, Nuzz.

Oh, well it's not a problem, Scratch, me old mate.

Now, er, Miss Gooseberry, how about a rosette for me and, er, Norris, eh?

You betcha!

-Oh, there you go.

-Ha-ha-ha-ha!

Team high-hoof?

High-hooves, high-hooves.

-High-hooves.

-Oh, Norris did one. Go on, Norris.

High-hooves. Oh, sorry, Norris.

You all right, Norris?

# You have to be safe, you have to be safe

# You have to be safe when you're about

# You have to be safe, you have to be safe

# You have to be safe

# You have to be safe, you have to be safe

# You have to be safe, I'm finding out

# You have to be safe, you have to be safe

# You have to be safe. #

Nuzzle and Scratch!
