0:00:10 > 0:00:13It's ever so near

0:01:15 > 0:01:19I think this looks like the perfect day for a special party.
0:01:19 > 0:01:22I wonder if the tiddlers would like to come.
0:01:22 > 0:01:25Compo, will you let us know when they're coming?

0:01:33 > 0:01:36Whee! Party bean!
0:01:36 > 0:01:41- Can you help me?- Dancing bean. - Yes, Colin, there might be dancing.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44- But I do need your help. - Helping dancing bean!
0:01:44 > 0:01:46- Just "helping bean", please.- Oh.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49I need someone to move these balloons,
0:01:49 > 0:01:52and that flowerpot is in the way too.
0:01:52 > 0:01:54- BAGPIPES - Wee MacGregors,

0:02:09 > 0:02:13Oh, you've dealt with the balloons and the pot already.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16Thank you, Colin. Well done.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19D... Ah... Helping bean.
0:02:19 > 0:02:24- COMPO WHIRRS AND BLOWS HORN - Here come the tiddlers.
0:02:24 > 0:02:29- I hope they'll want to come to my party.- Oh-ho! Excitement.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32- GATE BELL RINGS - Come in!
0:02:32 > 0:02:34Oh, hello! Who've we got?
0:02:34 > 0:02:37Ishta, Cameron, Sienna and Gabriel. Hello.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40I've got a question for you. Are you ready?
0:02:40 > 0:02:44- ALL: Yes. - All right. It's about lettuces, OK?
0:02:44 > 0:02:48Now, do lettuces grow in Cameron's hair?
0:02:48 > 0:02:51ALL: No!
0:02:51 > 0:02:54No, they don't grow in Cameron's hair.
0:02:54 > 0:02:56So, do lettuces grow on lettuce trees?
0:02:56 > 0:02:57ALL: No!
0:02:57 > 0:03:00No, they don't grow on lettuce trees.
0:03:00 > 0:03:02So can you tell me where lettuces grow?
0:03:02 > 0:03:05ALL: In soil!
0:03:05 > 0:03:08In soil. In the ground, that's right.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10- Shall we go and look at some? - ALL: Yes!
0:03:10 > 0:03:13Come on, then. Follow me!
0:03:13 > 0:03:17Round the table, down to the lettuce patch.
0:03:17 > 0:03:19Oh, look at these lovely lettuces.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21They're crisp and juicy
0:03:21 > 0:03:23and ready for cutting.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26But we need to keep an eye out for pesky pests
0:03:26 > 0:03:29that could make my lettuces poorly.
0:03:29 > 0:03:32Now, who can tell me what these are?
0:03:32 > 0:03:35- ALL: Magnifying glasses! - Ten out of ten!
0:03:35 > 0:03:39They're magnifying glasses. I'm going to pass these out.
0:03:39 > 0:03:43One for you, one for Cameron, this one's for Gabriel,
0:03:43 > 0:03:45and that's for you, Sienna.
0:03:45 > 0:03:48Do you know how to use magnifying glasses?
0:03:48 > 0:03:50Hold them in front of your eyes,
0:03:50 > 0:03:54because magnifying glasses make things look bigger.
0:03:54 > 0:03:58Perfect for spying on tiny visitors we don't want in the garden.
0:03:58 > 0:04:02- What can you see, Sienna? - A bug.- A bug?
0:04:02 > 0:04:04I'll tell you what, tiddlers,
0:04:04 > 0:04:09that plant has got bugs, and those bugs are called greenfly.
0:04:09 > 0:04:14Greenfly are bad for plants, because they make them poorly,
0:04:14 > 0:04:17but they're not the only bugs in the nursery.
0:04:17 > 0:04:18What else can you see?
0:04:18 > 0:04:22- There's a ladybird!- That's right, Ishta, it's a ladybird.
0:04:22 > 0:04:26Now, who can tell me why ladybirds are good for plants?
0:04:26 > 0:04:28Because they eat all the bugs.
0:04:28 > 0:04:30That's right, Sienna, yes.
0:04:30 > 0:04:33So that gives me a good idea -
0:04:33 > 0:04:37if we get some ladybirds, the ladybirds will eat the bugs.
0:04:37 > 0:04:41- What do you think? - Yeah, that's a good idea.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43Which of you would like to be ladybird spotters?
0:04:43 > 0:04:47ALL: Me!
0:04:47 > 0:04:51Well, let's go and find some. Follow me.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00Well, there's none here.
0:05:00 > 0:05:04Let's try somewhere else, Cameron. Come on.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11Mr Bloom, I found one!
0:05:17 > 0:05:22- Do you think this ladybird might eat those bugs on the lettuce?- Yeah.
0:05:22 > 0:05:27Can you see how many spots he's got? One, two, three...
0:05:27 > 0:05:31BOTH: Four, five, six...
0:05:31 > 0:05:34- Seven!- Has it got seven? Wow!
0:05:40 > 0:05:42Hello.
0:05:42 > 0:05:49- How does that feel, Cameron?- Itchy. - Does it? Is it tickling your finger?
0:05:50 > 0:05:54- There!- That's right!
0:05:54 > 0:05:57Come on, let's take him to the lettuces.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02Hey, well done, tiddlers!
0:06:02 > 0:06:07Now, let's get these ladybirds and put them onto the lettuce.
0:06:07 > 0:06:11They can eat all the bugs and keep my lettuces looking lovely.
0:06:11 > 0:06:13- Yeah!- Good job, Sienna.
0:06:13 > 0:06:17- There they go.- Mine's in there, too.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19Mine's on it.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21- COMPO RINGS HIS BELLS - Brilliant work.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24Oh, coming, Compo.

0:09:25 > 0:09:29- He's not very Raymond-y today.- Aw.
0:09:29 > 0:09:33Well, if there's a ball, we'll need to be dressing up, won't we?
0:09:33 > 0:09:34ALL: Oh, yes.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37We need to dress up in something really pretty.
0:09:37 > 0:09:42- Tiddlers, can you think of anything? - I'm going to dress up as a princess.
0:09:42 > 0:09:44Ooh!
0:09:44 > 0:09:47What do you think we could dress up as, Gabriel?
0:09:47 > 0:09:51- A bat.- A bat? Ooh, like a Halloween party.
0:09:51 > 0:09:55What did we just see outside that was really, really pretty?

0:10:31 > 0:10:36Raymond, are you not looking forward to the ladybird ball?

0:11:03 > 0:11:06Well, I know it's very funny...
0:11:06 > 0:11:08HE COUGHS ..but it hasn't made me smile.
0:11:08 > 0:11:13SHE SIGHS I don't know what else we can do.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15Oh! I've had a great idea.
0:11:15 > 0:11:19Why don't we make decorations for the ladybird ball?
0:11:19 > 0:11:21Oh, oh, very excited bean!
0:11:21 > 0:11:23There's a lot of work to do.
0:11:23 > 0:11:25But it'll be fabulous.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27Raymond, this will make you smile.
0:11:27 > 0:11:31Sienna and Gabriel, can you go over to meet Joan?
0:11:31 > 0:11:32BOTH: Yes.
0:11:32 > 0:11:36- Have you got any smiles yet, Raymond?- No.
0:11:36 > 0:11:40And now my tummy is feeling a bit butternut-squishy,
0:11:40 > 0:11:43and my head is feeling a bit wibbly-wobbly.
0:11:43 > 0:11:46Oh, is it?
0:11:46 > 0:11:50Can you open wide for me, Raymond? Say, "Ah".
0:11:50 > 0:11:52- Ah...- Follow my finger.
0:11:53 > 0:11:59Oh, Raymond, I know why you're not feeling very Raymond-y.
0:11:59 > 0:12:00Why, Mr Bloom?
0:12:00 > 0:12:03Well, Raymond's poorly. Raymond's got a bug.
0:12:03 > 0:12:08- How can we get rid of the bug? - I think Raymond needs some medicine.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11That ought to help him get rid of his bug.
0:12:11 > 0:12:15Ishta, can you go and get me a spoon from the Compostarium?
0:12:21 > 0:12:25Thanks, Ishta. We got some medicine and... Look...
0:12:25 > 0:12:26It's a ladybird spoon.
0:12:26 > 0:12:31Ladybirds are very good at getting rid of bugs, aren't they?
0:12:31 > 0:12:34Here you go, then, Raymond.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36- Open wide.- Ah...
0:12:36 > 0:12:39Here you are, Raymond. And lick the spoon.
0:12:40 > 0:12:41That's better.
0:12:41 > 0:12:43Oh, thank you.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46HE COUGHS I feel a bit better already.
0:12:46 > 0:12:50Good. Cameron, bring that blanket over, and we can tuck Raymond in.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52RAYMOND COUGHS
0:12:52 > 0:12:56- Aw.- That's it, nice and snuggly.
0:12:56 > 0:13:00- Give him a big cuddle for being brave.- Aw, thank you.
0:13:00 > 0:13:04- And have you ever felt poorly, Ishta?- Yes.
0:13:04 > 0:13:05Oh, tell me about it.
0:13:05 > 0:13:08When I was drinking some milk,
0:13:08 > 0:13:13- I was being sick twice. - You were sick twice?- Yes.
0:13:13 > 0:13:15A bit butternut-squishy, like me?
0:13:15 > 0:13:18But what about the ladybird ball?
0:13:18 > 0:13:21Raymond will be well enough to come, won't he?
0:13:21 > 0:13:22I hope so.
0:13:22 > 0:13:25Oh. Worried bean.
0:13:25 > 0:13:29Look, everyone, let's give Raymond some quiet time
0:13:29 > 0:13:31so he can get over his bug, OK?
0:13:31 > 0:13:33Come on, tiddlers.
0:13:33 > 0:13:36- See you at the ball, Raymond.- OK.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40RAYMOND COUGHS
0:13:40 > 0:13:42Oh.
0:13:45 > 0:13:49- Oh, there you are. How's Raymond? - He's still not very Raymond-y.
0:13:49 > 0:13:52But I need him for the ladybird ball.
0:13:52 > 0:13:55Well, let's get ready, tiddlers.
0:13:55 > 0:13:56ALL: Yeah!
0:13:56 > 0:14:01- We need to try these costumes on. - OK, I'll hand them out.

0:14:03 > 0:14:07And for you, Cameron. Go on then, Ishta.
0:14:07 > 0:14:09Here are some wibbly-wobbly ladybirds
0:14:09 > 0:14:11for you to wear on your head.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14These look the right size for Colin.
0:14:14 > 0:14:16Oh, that's perfect.
0:14:16 > 0:14:20Your antenna too - you'll look marvellous.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23We've got some bunting - we could put that up.
0:14:23 > 0:14:27I'll pass this along to you, Gabriel, and you pass it to Ishta,
0:14:27 > 0:14:30and you pass it on to Cameron.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32This is going fantastically well.
0:14:32 > 0:14:35I'm just going to go and check on Raymond, all right?
0:14:35 > 0:14:37ALL: OK.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41Has that bug gone yet, Raymond?
0:14:41 > 0:14:46- Well, I'm feeling a bit more Raymond-y.- That's great news.
0:14:46 > 0:14:50- And the ladybird ball's nearly ready for you.- Really?- Mm-hm.
0:14:50 > 0:14:53- Do you need your nose blowing? - Yes, please.
0:14:53 > 0:14:56Let's give it a good blow.
0:14:57 > 0:15:00Oh, crumbs, that's a big one.
