0:01:34 > 0:01:37Wow, Raymond, that's very good.
0:01:37 > 0:01:41I could heard you from the other side of the nursery.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44Thanks. Colin and I were playing karaoke!
0:01:44 > 0:01:48Karaoke bean, karaoke bean,
0:01:48 > 0:01:50karaoke bean, Margaret!
0:01:50 > 0:01:56- Karaoke?- You know, when Compo plays songs and we take turns to sing.
0:01:56 > 0:01:58Come on, join in!
0:01:58 > 0:02:03Oh, um, I'm not sure, Raymond.
0:02:03 > 0:02:07- I don't know any songs. - Don't know any songs?
0:02:07 > 0:02:11No, and anyway, I need some help, look.
0:02:11 > 0:02:16- There's a hole in my bucket. - I love that one! Ahem...
0:02:16 > 0:02:20- # Dear Margaret, dear Margaret. # - Pardon?
0:02:20 > 0:02:23I said, "There's a hole in my bucket!"
0:02:23 > 0:02:28# Dear Margaret, a hole!# See, you do know a song. Yay!
0:02:28 > 0:02:31Margaret's going to play karaoke!
0:02:31 > 0:02:33What? No, I can't...
0:02:34 > 0:02:37WHISTLE BLOWS
0:02:37 > 0:02:40It will be soon, though. The Tiddlers are here.
0:02:40 > 0:02:41Hey, hey!
0:02:44 > 0:02:48Hey, Tiddlers. It's Amy, Yusef and Courtney.
0:02:48 > 0:02:52I'm glad you're here, I'm checking on my seedlings.
0:02:52 > 0:02:56- Do you know what seedlings are? - Baby plants.- Right.
0:02:56 > 0:03:02Seedlings are young plants that still have lots of growing to do.
0:03:02 > 0:03:07- Why do I need to check my seedlings? - Because they can grow.- Right.
0:03:07 > 0:03:11I need to check they're growing OK because sometimes,
0:03:11 > 0:03:13some might need help.
0:03:13 > 0:03:18What do you think a seedling looks like if it's growing A-OK?
0:03:18 > 0:03:23- Big.- You're stretching high up to the sky.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26Very good, Courtney. Very big and strong.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29Right, Tiddlers, another question.
0:03:29 > 0:03:34What does a seedling look like if it needs help?
0:03:34 > 0:03:37- Yellow.- Yeah, not nice and green, but sad and yellow.
0:03:37 > 0:03:41So we need to check their size,
0:03:41 > 0:03:45we need to check their colour and they're upright and strong.
0:03:45 > 0:03:48You'd make great seedling doctors.
0:03:48 > 0:03:52- Could you give me a hand? - ALL: Yeah!
0:03:52 > 0:03:55Let's visit my seedlings! This way.
0:03:58 > 0:04:03Right, then, my seedling doctors. Let's see what we've got here.
0:04:03 > 0:04:07- How are your seedlings, Amy? - This one's floppy.- But the rest,
0:04:07 > 0:04:12- are they big and strong?- A-OK! And are yours A-OK?- Yes.
0:04:12 > 0:04:17- Are your seedlings looking A-OK? - No. They've got yellow leaves.
0:04:17 > 0:04:23You're right. A few plants and seedlings aren't looking very well.
0:04:23 > 0:04:27What do you Tiddlers think? How could we help these seedlings?
0:04:27 > 0:04:31- Water them.- Giving them some water. A fine idea.
0:04:31 > 0:04:36- Sticks to keep them straight. - We could use canes.- Fresh soil.
0:04:36 > 0:04:42They're fine ideas, but I've got a special secret potion
0:04:42 > 0:04:44that will do just the trick.
0:04:44 > 0:04:48- Shall we go and make some? - ALL: Yeah!- Follow me!
0:04:54 > 0:04:56This is comfrey.
0:04:56 > 0:04:57Blahhh!
0:04:57 > 0:05:01Not you, Compo. Comfrey. You heard of comfrey?
0:05:01 > 0:05:05- No.- It's actually a herb
0:05:05 > 0:05:08and it's a bit like medicine for plants.
0:05:08 > 0:05:13If you mix the leaves with water, it makes a special potion.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16That helps plants to grow.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19- Can you help make some potion? - ALL: Yeah!
0:05:19 > 0:05:22Right, glove up, and let's get to it.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26I've got some water here.
0:05:26 > 0:05:32We can put all the leaves into this. Pop them in the bucket of water.
0:05:32 > 0:05:36- How many leaves do you think we can pick today?- 180.
0:05:36 > 0:05:41We need to get as many leaves in this bucket as we can.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44Brilliant! Now the leaves are in water we leave it,
0:05:44 > 0:05:47for about a month.
0:05:47 > 0:05:52- Uughh!- ALL: Mr Bloom!
0:05:52 > 0:05:57- What is it? Do you not want to wait a month?- No way!
0:05:57 > 0:06:02All right. Why don't we see if Compo can help us out?
0:06:02 > 0:06:05You come with me, Courtney.
0:06:05 > 0:06:11Don't forget to water this, Compo, so it's not too strong.
0:06:11 > 0:06:16Courtney, spin that wheel. Give it one more spin.
0:06:16 > 0:06:17I think that's done it.
0:06:20 > 0:06:26Look, Compo's given us some comfrey potion in these little misters.
0:06:26 > 0:06:30All we need to do is spray it onto the leaves
0:06:30 > 0:06:33of my seedlings and the job's done.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36- Ready, Tiddlers? - ALL: Yeah!
0:06:36 > 0:06:41Ha! Come on, my seedling doctors! We've got medicine to give.
0:06:41 > 0:06:45That's it, Amy. Get those ones down in the corner.
0:06:47 > 0:06:51Look at all this comfrey potion.
0:06:51 > 0:06:55There we go. Now we've given my seedlings
0:06:55 > 0:06:59all this comfrey potion, it'll give them the help they need.
0:06:59 > 0:07:00WHISTLING
0:07:00 > 0:07:04All right, Compo! We haven't forgotten you.
0:07:04 > 0:07:08- Guess who's hungry, Tiddlers? - ALL: Compo.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10Come on, it's feeding time!
0:07:12 > 0:07:14# Grass and weeds and leaves from trees

0:07:17 > 0:07:19# Brown stuff, green stuff Sticky stuff, icky stuff

0:09:28 > 0:09:32- Hello! What's going on here? - Hello, Mr Bloom. Hello, Tiddlers.
0:09:32 > 0:09:35- ALL: Hello.- Hello, Tiddlers.
0:09:35 > 0:09:39I'm teaching Colin to sing. We're playing karaoke.
0:09:39 > 0:09:43- ALL: Yay! - Karaoke bean!- Karaoke?
0:09:43 > 0:09:47That's some fun, that is. Do you like karaoke, Tiddlers?
0:09:47 > 0:09:52- I like it.- Do you? Do you like singing along to the music, Amy?
0:09:52 > 0:09:58- Excuse me, can you keep it down over there?- Sorry, Joan.
0:09:58 > 0:10:02- What's up with her?- She's helping Margaret with her singing.
0:10:02 > 0:10:06But we don't think it's going very well.
0:10:06 > 0:10:09Shhhh! Quiet bean!
0:10:09 > 0:10:14- Tiddlers, shall we see if we can help?- Yes.- See you in a bit, lads.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17See you in a bit. Bye!
0:10:17 > 0:10:22All right, Compo? Hit it.
0:10:22 > 0:10:27QUIETLY: # There's a hole in my bucket, dear Joan, dear Joan
0:10:27 > 0:10:33There's a hole in my bucket Dear Joan, a hole. #
0:10:33 > 0:10:38- What's the matter, Margaret? Why weren't you singing?- I was singing.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41Really? I couldn't you hear you. Could you, Tiddlers?
0:10:41 > 0:10:45- She wasn't very loud. - She's a bit quiet, isn't she?
0:10:45 > 0:10:51Don't worry. I could turn the volume down on Compo. Give me a minute.
0:10:51 > 0:10:56- Cheeky radishes. Have you been fiddling with this?- He-he-he-he!
0:10:56 > 0:11:01Oh, I don't know! Margaret, it's down as low as it can go.
0:11:01 > 0:11:05- Oh, dear!- It's not her fault. She's tried really hard
0:11:05 > 0:11:09and I've been trying really hard too, to help her.
0:11:09 > 0:11:14- That's very nice of you, Joan. - I'm only a quiet cabbage.
0:11:14 > 0:11:18When the music plays you can't even hear me.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21I can't sing big and loud like...like...
0:11:21 > 0:11:26Like me! # Ho-ho-ho-ho, ho-ho-ho-ho! #
0:11:26 > 0:11:31Joan, thanks. Why don't you practice with Raymond and Colin?
0:11:31 > 0:11:38Good idea, Mr Bloom. Good luck, Margaret. # Ho-ho-ho-ho! #
0:11:38 > 0:11:43Margaret, people would love to hear you sing, whether loud or quiet.
0:11:43 > 0:11:48Sometimes you just need help. I know you've got a lovely voice.
0:11:48 > 0:11:53Tiddlers, what do you think we could do to help Margaret?
0:11:53 > 0:11:59- What do you think, Yusef?- We could all sing together.- That's brilliant!
0:11:59 > 0:12:02Hang about, I know who can help.
0:12:02 > 0:12:06Shout for the best singing aubergine this nursery's seen.
0:12:06 > 0:12:11- You know who I mean? - ALL: Sebastian!
0:12:11 > 0:12:14That's right. OK, one, two, three...
0:12:14 > 0:12:17ALL: Sebastian!
0:12:17 > 0:12:22At your service, Tiddlers. A-ha!
0:12:22 > 0:12:25Hello, Sebastian. Nice to see you.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28Hello, Tiddlers.
0:12:28 > 0:12:33Hello, Mr Bloom. What has been happening?
0:12:33 > 0:12:36Margaret's singing isn't as loud as it should be.
0:12:36 > 0:12:40Do not worry, Tiddlers. Do not worry, Margaret.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43I have exercises that will help you all.
0:12:43 > 0:12:49Oh...OK. Um...I'd feel happier if Mr Bloom and the Tiddlers
0:12:49 > 0:12:54- joined in too.- We're up for that Tiddlers, aren't we?- ALL: Yeah.
0:12:54 > 0:13:00You came to the right aubergine. Mr Bloom, Tiddlers, join me.
0:13:05 > 0:13:09We must warm your face so it's easier to open your mouth.
0:13:09 > 0:13:14This will be quick so you have to keep up. Are you ready?
0:13:14 > 0:13:17- Yes.- So, big face.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20Small face.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22Big face.
0:13:22 > 0:13:25Small face.
0:13:25 > 0:13:26Happy face.
0:13:26 > 0:13:28Sad face.
0:13:30 > 0:13:33Angry face. Grrr!
0:13:33 > 0:13:35Smiley face.
0:13:37 > 0:13:43That was so good! Very good! Very good for Margaret.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46Are your faces feeling warm?
0:13:46 > 0:13:49WHISTLING
0:13:49 > 0:13:54I think Compo's got something for Margaret. See what it is, Amy.
0:13:59 > 0:14:04- What have we got here? - Microphone.- A-ha, a microphone!
0:14:04 > 0:14:10You know, I think Compo must have heard you. Here you go, Margaret.
0:14:10 > 0:14:16Oh! Thank you, but I'm not sure about using a microphone.
0:14:16 > 0:14:20Do not worry, Margaret, it will help you to be louder.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23Anyway, all the great singers use them -
0:14:23 > 0:14:26Tina Turnip, Elvis Parsley.
0:14:26 > 0:14:27Give it a go, Margaret.
0:14:29 > 0:14:36AMPLIFIED: Hello? Sorry. Wow! I'm very loud, aren't I?
0:14:36 > 0:14:41Ha-ha-ha! I'm the loudest cabbage in the whole wide world!
0:14:43 > 0:14:48Wow, Margaret. We heard you from the other side of the nursery.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50Will you sing your song, Margaret?
0:14:50 > 0:14:53Singing bean!
0:14:53 > 0:14:58OK, I'll give it a go, but will you all sing with me?
0:14:58 > 0:14:59ALL: Yes!
0:14:59 > 0:15:04Sing the song to Tom and Barbara who are all the way over here.
0:15:07 > 0:15:10Right, let's get the singsong started.
0:15:10 > 0:15:13- Yusef, can you turn Compo's volume up?- Yeah.
0:15:21 > 0:15:25# There's a hole in my bucket Tom and Barbara, Tom and Barbara
0:15:25 > 0:15:31# There's a hole in my bucket Tom and Barbara, a hole.
0:15:31 > 0:15:36# Then mend it, dear Margaret Dear Margaret, dear Margaret
0:15:36 > 0:15:41# Then mend it, dear Margaret Dear Margaret, mend it
0:15:41 > 0:15:47# With what shall I mend it Dear Tiddlers, dear Tiddlers?

0:15:53 > 0:15:57ALL: # With Compo, dear Margaret Dear Margaret, dear Margaret
0:15:57 > 0:16:05# With Compo, dear Margaret Dear Margaret, Compo-o-o! #
0:16:05 > 0:16:09ALL: Yay!
0:16:13 > 0:16:19Compo, you mended my bucket as well! Oh, thank you!
0:16:19 > 0:16:24Margaret, your singing was great. All you needed was a bit of help.
0:16:24 > 0:16:28I think you're even louder than Joan.
0:16:28 > 0:16:33What? Louder than me? Compo, have you any more microphones?
0:16:33 > 0:16:37- You cheeky fennel, Joan. - ALL: Ha-ha-ha!
0:16:37 > 0:16:40Have we got time for one more song?
0:16:40 > 0:16:44Good idea, Sebastian. Can you lead us in?
0:16:44 > 0:16:47I think you know what's coming.
0:16:50 > 0:16:52# We made some comfrey
0:16:52 > 0:16:54# It's a tonic, don't you know
0:16:54 > 0:16:56# A herby helping hand
0:16:56 > 0:16:59# Helps the plants as they grow
0:16:59 > 0:17:03# A little extra help gets the job done
0:17:03 > 0:17:05# So I think we all deserve
0:17:05 > 0:17:08# To sing and dance and have some fun
0:17:08 > 0:17:11ALL: # La-la-la-la
0:17:11 > 0:17:16# La-la-la-la

0:17:20 > 0:17:25# La-la-la-la
0:17:25 > 0:17:29# We've had a busy day How the time flies!
0:17:29 > 0:17:35# So now you veggies must be bedded down
0:17:35 > 0:17:38# For the night. # Come on, Margaret,
0:17:38 > 0:17:42Colin, Raymond, Joan and Sebastian.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44Settle down you cheeky wee Macgregors.
0:17:44 > 0:17:46It's time for bed.
0:17:46 > 0:17:49I liked it when you did it on the microphone.
