0:00:03 > 0:00:06There is a place
0:00:06 > 0:00:08Not far from here
0:00:08 > 0:00:11I'm sure you know it
0:00:11 > 0:00:12It's ever so near
0:00:12 > 0:00:16Come down the path
0:00:16 > 0:00:18And you will see
0:00:18 > 0:00:20A little gate

0:01:16 > 0:01:22Oh, I'm so excited about our disco party. Is everything ready?
0:01:22 > 0:01:26Oh, not yet Margaret. Compo, a little higher. A little more.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32No!
0:01:32 > 0:01:37Oh, perfect. Now, Compo, it is time to blow up the balloons.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41Oh, ho, ho, ho!
0:01:41 > 0:01:44And, don't forget the streamers. Come on, Compo.
0:01:46 > 0:01:48Oh, come on, Compo.
0:01:49 > 0:01:53Bonjour, Joan. Are you ready for the disco party?
0:01:53 > 0:01:58I certainly am, thanks to my lovely new disco hairstyle.
0:01:58 > 0:02:02- Oh, oui! I love it. - Oh, thank you Sebastian,
0:02:02 > 0:02:07Margaret did it for me, I'll never be able to do it by myself.
0:02:07 > 0:02:11Thank you so much for making me look so nice Margaret.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14Oh, you're welcome, Joan.
0:02:14 > 0:02:18So, how are the disco preparations going, Sebastian?
0:02:18 > 0:02:22Oh, magnifique, but I think I am forgetting something.
0:02:22 > 0:02:25Compo, we need flashing lights.
0:02:26 > 0:02:31Hello Raymond, are you excited about our disco party?
0:02:31 > 0:02:34Oh, yes. I love the music and the lights.
0:02:34 > 0:02:39Well, I can't wait either, because I want to try out a new song now.
0:02:39 > 0:02:40Compo?
0:02:40 > 0:02:44MACHINE SHUTS DOWN
0:02:44 > 0:02:46I'm not sure I know this song.
0:02:51 > 0:02:54Oh, hello there, tiddlers.
0:02:54 > 0:02:58Now, who have we got today? We've got Lily, Jack, and we've got Mia.
0:02:58 > 0:03:03Thanks for coming today, tiddlers. I think I should say thank you properly.
0:03:03 > 0:03:07- Thank you for coming today. - ALL: Thank you, thank you.
0:03:07 > 0:03:09It's nice to say thank you, isn't it?
0:03:09 > 0:03:11You know what? I've been thinking,
0:03:11 > 0:03:13all my plants and Veggies in my nursery,
0:03:13 > 0:03:16they're always giving us delicious things to eat, aren't they?
0:03:16 > 0:03:20So, how about we say thank you to my Veggies and plants
0:03:20 > 0:03:23by giving them something nice in return?
0:03:23 > 0:03:25- Yes!- OK. - WHISTLE BLOWS
0:03:25 > 0:03:29- Ooh! Shall we see what he's got for us?- Yeah.- OK.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32Hello, hello, hello.
0:03:32 > 0:03:36What have we got here? I think Compo's trying to tell us something.
0:03:36 > 0:03:40Come on, tiddlers. This way.
0:03:43 > 0:03:47Now, these are nettles, OK? But you have to be very careful with nettles
0:03:47 > 0:03:50because if you get too close, and you touch them,
0:03:50 > 0:03:53- they can give you a nasty sting. - I got stung by one.
0:03:53 > 0:03:55Have you been stung by a nettle before?
0:03:55 > 0:04:00- It was on my finger.- On your finger! I tell you what, tiddlers,
0:04:00 > 0:04:04if your really, really careful it's possible to make nettle tea!
0:04:04 > 0:04:06ALL: Blurgh!
0:04:08 > 0:04:11Oh, well that might not sound very nice to you and me,
0:04:11 > 0:04:15but to plants and Veggies, nettle tea, it's a tasty treat.
0:04:15 > 0:04:19It's full of nourishing goodness. That's a great way
0:04:19 > 0:04:21to say thank you to my plants.
0:04:21 > 0:04:26Right then, tiddlers. I'm going to put on these protective gloves
0:04:26 > 0:04:31to keep me safe. Why don't you take this bucket over to Compo
0:04:31 > 0:04:34and fill it up with some water? Can you do that?
0:04:34 > 0:04:36- ALL: Yeah! - There you go, then.
0:04:37 > 0:04:40Right.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50That's brilliant, tiddlers. Well done.
0:04:51 > 0:04:55Now, all we need to do is to take these nettles and pop them
0:04:55 > 0:04:56in that tub of water.
0:04:56 > 0:05:01So, I'll carefully put these nettles in here. Stand back!
0:05:01 > 0:05:03There we go.
0:05:03 > 0:05:06And now I'll weigh the leaves down, and fasten the lid.
0:05:06 > 0:05:10So, that's where the bin bag comes in, isn't it?
0:05:10 > 0:05:13So, let's put that over the top.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16Now, how long do you think we're going to have to leave it
0:05:16 > 0:05:20before it's ready to be used as nettle tea?
0:05:20 > 0:05:24- 10 or 15 minutes?- Well, might be a bit of a surprise to you
0:05:24 > 0:05:27that this tea will take, oh, about,
0:05:27 > 0:05:30three weeks before it's ready to drink.
0:05:30 > 0:05:34Luckily I've got some nettle tea over there that's ready.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37So, shall we wait here for three weeks,
0:05:37 > 0:05:39or shall we go and get that lot?
0:05:39 > 0:05:41ALL: Go and get that lot.
0:05:41 > 0:05:43Alright. You lead the way.
0:05:46 > 0:05:51Here it is, tiddlers. Right, let's see if it's ready, shall we?
0:05:53 > 0:05:58Oh, my goodness me! Oh dear. Have a smell of that, tiddlers.
0:05:58 > 0:06:01ALL: Urgh!
0:06:01 > 0:06:07- Can you smell it from there, Jack? - I can't.- My goodness.- Urgh!
0:06:07 > 0:06:09Now, would you guys like a cup of this to drink?
0:06:09 > 0:06:11ALL: No!
0:06:11 > 0:06:14- Is that water?- This is nettle tea.
0:06:14 > 0:06:17What we have to do is, we have to pour some nettle tea
0:06:17 > 0:06:21- into your watering cans. So, hold up your watering cans.- Urgh!
0:06:21 > 0:06:27Ha ha! OK. Oh, we're being very brave, aren't we?
0:06:29 > 0:06:33Ha, ha. Hold your nose if it's too much.
0:06:33 > 0:06:35- Right, tiddlers. - TIDDLERS GIGGLE
0:06:35 > 0:06:39There's your delicious, lovely, nettle tea.
0:06:39 > 0:06:41ALL: Eeeew!
0:06:41 > 0:06:44Hold on to your watering can. Hold on to them, tiddlers.
0:06:44 > 0:06:48Jack, here's an extra special big helping, just for you.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51- There we go.- Eeew!
0:06:51 > 0:06:56Right. Oh, dear me. The plants are going to love this.
0:06:56 > 0:06:58And, so it's not too strong for my plants,
0:06:58 > 0:07:01the last thing to do is to make this tea much weaker,
0:07:01 > 0:07:05by adding lots of water, and that's just the thing that will give
0:07:05 > 0:07:07my Veggies and my plants a little boost
0:07:07 > 0:07:09and make them feel really good.
0:07:09 > 0:07:13It's a really nice way of saying thank you for all their hard work.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15Because you should always say thank you
0:07:15 > 0:07:18when someone does something nice for you, shouldn't you?
0:07:18 > 0:07:21- ALL: Yeah!- So, tiddlers, do you know what time it is?
0:07:21 > 0:07:23ALL: Tea time!
0:07:23 > 0:07:27That's right! It's time for tea! Come on.
0:07:34 > 0:07:38That's the last of them, tiddlers. Well done!
0:07:38 > 0:07:44And thank you for helping me say thank you to my Veggies and plants.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47And thank you too, Compo, for giving us the idea
0:07:47 > 0:07:51to make nettle tea in the first place.
0:07:52 > 0:07:57And the best way to thank Compo is to give him a jolly good feed.
0:07:57 > 0:08:00Come on.
0:08:00 > 0:08:02# Grass and weeds and leaves from trees
0:08:02 > 0:08:05# Thistles that prickle and petals that tickle
0:08:05 > 0:08:08# Brown stuff, green stuff, sticky stuff, icky stuff
0:08:08 > 0:08:10# Crunchy bits, munchy bits, snappy bits, sappy bits
0:08:10 > 0:08:12# Yesterday's yums, chopping board crumbs
0:08:12 > 0:08:17# It's not fussy what's in its tum - my awesome Compostarium! #
0:08:22 > 0:08:25It's full! Hooray!
0:08:25 > 0:08:29Watch out, tiddlers, here goes Compo!
0:08:55 > 0:08:59Right, shall we go and meet The Veggies?
0:08:59 > 0:09:01ALL: Yeah!
0:09:01 > 0:09:03- # Meet The Veggies. - # We're The Veggies.
0:09:03 > 0:09:08# They grow here in my nursery! # Meet The Veggies!
0:09:08 > 0:09:12- # We're The Veggies! - # Now who've we got today? Let's see
0:09:12 > 0:09:15- # There's Margaret the Cabbage... - Pee-bo!
0:09:15 > 0:09:18- # Raymond the Squash... - I love cuddles, you know.
0:09:18 > 0:09:21# And Sebastian's a singing aubergine
0:09:21 > 0:09:25- # La-la-la-le, mee-mee-mee-mee-mee! - Nice!
0:09:25 > 0:09:26# Meet The Veggies
0:09:26 > 0:09:27# We're The Veggies!
0:09:27 > 0:09:30# Oh, they grow here in my nursery
0:09:30 > 0:09:33- # Meet The Veggies - # We're The Veggies!
0:09:33 > 0:09:36# And that is not all, oh, no, siree
0:09:36 > 0:09:39- # There is Colin the runner bean. - # I'm speedy!
0:09:39 > 0:09:42# The wee MacGregors, they're so cheeky.
0:09:42 > 0:09:44# And I'm a beautiful fennel called Joan
0:09:44 > 0:09:46# Hello, my dear, haven't you grown?
0:09:46 > 0:09:50- # Meet The Veggies - We're The Veggies!
0:09:50 > 0:09:52# Oh, they grow here in my nursery
0:09:52 > 0:09:55- # Meet The Veggies - We're The Veggies!
0:09:55 > 0:09:57# And we love Mr Bloom!
0:09:57 > 0:10:00That's me.
0:10:06 > 0:10:09Right, let's go see The Veggies. Ooh, it's a bit dark in here,
0:10:09 > 0:10:12- tiddlers, don't you think?- Yeah.
0:10:12 > 0:10:16What's all this, Veggies? Why are the lights down so low?
0:10:16 > 0:10:20- We're saved!- Mr Bloom! Tiddlers!
0:10:20 > 0:10:23What were you doing standing around in the dark?
0:10:23 > 0:10:27Well, it happened while we were getting ready for our disco party.
0:10:27 > 0:10:32- A disco party? That sounds like fun, don't you think, tiddlers?- Yeah!
0:10:32 > 0:10:37I love a good disco, me, busting some moves.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39And, being a gardener, I know all the latest ones as well.
0:10:39 > 0:10:43Oh, yes, oh, yes. Have you heard of the mashed potato? Yeah?
0:10:43 > 0:10:45- Yeah.- The mashed potato and the funky carrot.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47This is a new one. The funky carrot!
0:10:51 > 0:10:55And the watering can-can. Can you do it? You go like this.
0:10:55 > 0:10:59And then you go, "The watering can-can!" Yeah, your legs go!
0:10:59 > 0:11:03Are we good enough dancers to join your party?
0:11:03 > 0:11:05Oooh yes! Very impressive!
0:11:06 > 0:11:10But is there even going to be a party?
0:11:10 > 0:11:14There seems to be something wrong with Compo.
0:11:14 > 0:11:18Yes. Either that, or it's a very quiet disco.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21Something wrong with Compo?
0:11:21 > 0:11:25- He was very helpful when we were working outside, wasn't he?- Yeah.
0:11:25 > 0:11:29He was being very helpful. And we just fed him up nice and full.
0:11:29 > 0:11:32So I don't know what the matter is with him.
0:11:32 > 0:11:36He was working fine before, getting everything ready for us.
0:11:36 > 0:11:41Ooh, yes, I can see he's been working hard for you. Look.
0:11:41 > 0:11:46He's all covered in dirt and dust.
0:11:46 > 0:11:51We just told Compo to play the music for us and nothing happened.
0:11:51 > 0:11:52Nothing happened?
0:11:52 > 0:11:55Well not quite nothing. He went, 'Pfffft!'
0:11:58 > 0:12:00Then all the lights went off.
0:12:00 > 0:12:05- That doesn't sound like Compo, does it, tiddlers?- No.
0:12:05 > 0:12:09I'll tell you what, shall we see if we can get to play some music?
0:12:09 > 0:12:11- Yeah.- Yes? All right.
0:12:11 > 0:12:15Let's say, "Please can we have some music, Compo?"
0:12:15 > 0:12:17Please can we have some music, Compo?
0:12:20 > 0:12:21Eh, Well done!
0:12:21 > 0:12:25That's better. Let's have a boogie!
0:12:25 > 0:12:27Let's see the funky carrots.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30And now, how about the mashed potato?
0:12:30 > 0:12:37Mashed potato, mashed potato, mash, mash, mash, mash.
0:12:37 > 0:12:39Hey, the watering can-can? Here we go.
0:12:39 > 0:12:43Let's see your watering can-can, Jack.
0:12:43 > 0:12:45Keep going, Compo!
0:12:45 > 0:12:50Yes, play another song, Compo!
0:12:50 > 0:12:53Dancing bean! Now Compo!
0:12:53 > 0:12:56MACHINE SQUELCHES
0:12:57 > 0:13:01You see, this is what happened last time! I do not understand.
0:13:01 > 0:13:05POWERING-UP SOUND
0:13:05 > 0:13:07When the Tiddlers asked Compo nicely
0:13:07 > 0:13:11to play some music, he played music straight away, didn't he?
0:13:11 > 0:13:14But then, when you told him to play music, nothing happened!
0:13:14 > 0:13:19- Not quite nothing. He did go... - Alright Raymond! We got that.
0:13:19 > 0:13:23Have any of you guys got any ideas why Compo's not working properly?
0:13:23 > 0:13:26Maybe because they haven't said "please?"
0:13:26 > 0:13:30Eh, now there's a thought. Very good Lily. What about you Jack?
0:13:30 > 0:13:33Because they didn't say "thank you."
0:13:33 > 0:13:38Please and thank you.
0:13:38 > 0:13:42Oh no! We didn't say either of those, did we?
0:13:42 > 0:13:43We didn't say "please."
0:13:43 > 0:13:45And we didn't say "thank you."
0:13:45 > 0:13:51We were so excited, we forgot our manners.
0:13:51 > 0:13:55And now we have hurt his feelings, and he is not talking to us!
0:13:55 > 0:13:58Sorry, bean!
0:13:58 > 0:14:00Hey, listen! All of you.
0:14:00 > 0:14:03It's OK, I'm sure you didn't do it on purpose.
0:14:03 > 0:14:06Not on purpose, no!
0:14:06 > 0:14:08The thing is, Compo does so many useful
0:14:08 > 0:14:11things for us, that sometimes, it's quite easy to take him for granted.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14Compo's sad, so now I'm sad.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18It's not too late to make it up with Compo!
0:14:20 > 0:14:24Perhaps we can make something extra-special and give it to him
0:14:24 > 0:14:28to say thank you and show that we don't take him for granted.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31Has anyone got any ideas?
0:14:31 > 0:14:33Maybe we can do a picture of him?
0:14:33 > 0:14:37- Maybe we could give him a present? - ..Or a card?
0:14:37 > 0:14:39..Or a card. These are brilliant ideas.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41Don't you think, Veggies?
0:14:41 > 0:14:45Well, I got a lovely new hairstyle for the disco,
0:14:45 > 0:14:47that made me feel very special.
0:14:47 > 0:14:52Compo is looking a bit dirty and dusty.
0:14:52 > 0:14:57Maybe we could give him a lovely clean and polish?
0:14:58 > 0:14:59Now that's a good idea,
0:14:59 > 0:15:02we could give Compo a nice big brush,
0:15:02 > 0:15:05a nice polish, what do you think?
0:15:05 > 0:15:06ALL: Yes!
0:15:10 > 0:15:14Thank you, Compo. We're going to make you clean.
0:15:14 > 0:15:16With some nice soft clothes and a...
0:15:16 > 0:15:19..Polishing bean!
0:15:19 > 0:15:22It's time for us to polish your pipes,
0:15:22 > 0:15:26from way down low to the highest heights!
0:15:26 > 0:15:28We'll scrub you all over until you glow.
0:15:30 > 0:15:33And give you pretty ribbons and bows.
0:15:36 > 0:15:39So you can see what you mean to us...
0:15:39 > 0:15:43ALL: Thank you, Compo, very much!
0:15:46 > 0:15:50Oh look! Compo's feeling happy again!
0:15:51 > 0:15:52That makes me happy!
0:15:55 > 0:15:58Thank you for everything you do for us, Compo.
0:15:58 > 0:16:02We're so sorry we didn't say "please" and "thank you" before.
0:16:02 > 0:16:06And now, I mean...
0:16:06 > 0:16:09I think what Margaret's trying to say is, Compo, is -
0:16:09 > 0:16:13could you start the disco, please?
0:16:13 > 0:16:16DISCO MUSIC PLAYS
