There is a place

0:00:030:00:05

Not far from here

0:00:050:00:08

I'm sure you know it

It's ever so near

0:00:110:00:12

Come down the path

0:00:140:00:16

And you will see

0:00:160:00:18

A little gate

0:00:180:00:20

To Mr Bloom's Nursery!

0:00:200:00:23

Hello!

# Let me show you what I've got

0:00:360:00:39

0:01:000:01:02

# It's such a special place to be

0:01:020:01:04

# In my veggie nursery. #

0:01:040:01:11

Hello, there, tiddlers!

0:01:160:01:18

KIDS: Hello!

0:01:180:01:20

Hello! Now, who do we have?

0:01:200:01:22

We've got Natasha, we've got Zach and we've got Katie.

0:01:220:01:25

Now, today, we are going to be planting these pepper plants.

0:01:250:01:29

They come from a country called Mexico.

0:01:290:01:32

-Mexico?

-Have you heard of Mexico?

0:01:320:01:35

-Yes.

-Have you, Katie?

-No.

0:01:350:01:37

Have you not? Oh, well, I'll tell you, tiddlers.

0:01:370:01:40

It can get very warm in Mexico,

0:01:400:01:43

and in fact, you can get these brilliant hats!

0:01:430:01:46

They're called sombreros, and they help keep the sun off you.

0:01:460:01:51

But hang about. Is it very warm in my nursery at the moment?

0:01:510:01:55

KIDS: No!

0:01:550:01:56

No, it's not, is it?

0:01:560:01:58

And if these pepper plants are from Mexico, where it's really warm,

0:01:580:02:02

they might not like it in England.

0:02:020:02:05

They might want to grow back to Mexico, where it's warmer.

0:02:050:02:09

How do you think we can make these pepper plants feel more at home,

0:02:090:02:14

here in my nursery?

0:02:140:02:15

We could put them in a greenhouse.

0:02:150:02:18

That's right, Katie!

0:02:180:02:19

We could put them in a greenhouse,

0:02:190:02:22

because greenhouses make things warmer, don't they?

0:02:220:02:25

Yeah.

0:02:250:02:26

There's a great name for a little greenhouse.

0:02:260:02:29

-Do you know what it is?

-What?

0:02:290:02:31

It's called a cloche.

0:02:310:02:33

-A cloche?

-Yeah.

0:02:330:02:34

-Have you not heard of that word before?

-No.

0:02:340:02:37

Do you want to say it, Natasha?

0:02:370:02:39

-Cloche.

-Cloche.

0:02:390:02:41

Yeah, brilliant! That was great!

0:02:410:02:44

WHISTLE

0:02:440:02:45

Oh, sounds like Compo's been listening in!

0:02:450:02:48

Katie, why don't you go and see what he wants?

0:02:480:02:51

Hey, what have we got here?

0:03:000:03:03

We could stick these into the ground,

0:03:030:03:06

and then get that rope and the pegs and stick it in to make a tent.

0:03:060:03:10

A tent. Just like a cloche!

0:03:100:03:12

Hey, good thinking, Compo! Thanks!

0:03:120:03:15

We've got everything we need, haven't we?

0:03:150:03:18

So, are you tiddlers ready to make this cloche?

0:03:180:03:21

KIDS: Yeah!

0:03:210:03:22

I'm going to dig a hole here, and then I'm going to need your help.

0:03:220:03:27

Can you give this plant a tickle, like that? Give it a tickle.

0:03:270:03:31

That's right. Then, can you see the roots?

0:03:310:03:34

-Yeah!

-Yeah. So, we put that in.

-And then we pat it down.

0:03:340:03:38

We pat it down, we firm down the soil.

0:03:380:03:41

Let's see your hands, tiddlers.

0:03:410:03:44

Let's see your hands, Natasha. Show me your hands, ughhh!

0:03:440:03:48

We've got mucky hands!

0:03:480:03:50

So, now's the next thing.

0:03:500:03:51

There's your stick, there's a stick for you,

0:03:510:03:54

there's a stick for you, Tasha, stick for me.

0:03:540:03:57

Put them in the corners. You put yours there.

0:03:570:04:00

Down, down, with the stick! You pull that, Natasha.

0:04:000:04:04

That's it, pull it tight. That's it.

0:04:040:04:07

All right, fab. Let's wrap it round, wrap it round, wrap it round.

0:04:070:04:11

-Right, so now we need our netting, don't we?

-Yeah.

0:04:110:04:15

I'm going to peg it up here.

0:04:150:04:16

So, can you peg it onto this bamboo cane here, Katie?

0:04:160:04:21

There you go.

0:04:210:04:23

-And we'll put it up there?

-Yeah.

-Up there.

0:04:230:04:26

Yay! Good job!

0:04:280:04:32

You can see through it.

0:04:320:04:34

-Can we see through it?

-There's little holes.

0:04:340:04:37

That's important, because it lets the sun shine through.

0:04:370:04:41

But it keeps the cold out.

0:04:410:04:43

Now that is top work there, tiddlers.

0:04:430:04:45

That'll keep those pepper plants nice and warm in there.

0:04:450:04:49

And I can take the cloche off when the weather gets warmer!

0:04:490:04:53

They'll feel right at home.

0:04:530:04:55

WHISTLE

0:04:550:04:56

Eh? What's that, Compo?

0:04:560:04:58

Woah! Hey, look!

0:04:590:05:02

It's one of those fancy hats I mentioned earlier on, you remember?

0:05:020:05:06

-Yeah.

-A sombrero!

0:05:060:05:09

I've already got a hat, haven't I? What could we do with this one?

0:05:090:05:14

-We could put it on top of the cloche.

-Where could we put it, Natasha?

0:05:140:05:18

-Up there?

-Yeah.

0:05:180:05:20

All right, let's try it on.

0:05:200:05:22

Woo-hoo!

0:05:240:05:26

Ha-ha! Those little Mexican pepper plants

0:05:260:05:29

are feeling right at home now. They've got a hat!

0:05:290:05:34

Double helpings for you, today, Compo.

0:05:340:05:36

Come on, I think it's feeding time. Let's go!

0:05:390:05:43

# Grass and weeds and leaves from trees

0:05:450:05:47

# Thistles that prickle and petals that tickle

0:05:470:05:50

# Brown stuff, green stuff Sticky stuff, icky stuff

0:05:500:05:53

-TING!

0:05:590:06:04

ALL: It's full! Hooray!

0:06:040:06:05

Oh, hang about, tiddlers. Here goes Compo!

0:06:090:06:13

Right then, tiddlers. Are you ready to meet the veggies?

0:06:400:06:44

KIDS: Yeah!

0:06:440:06:46

Yeah? Let's go.

0:06:460:06:47

-# Meet the veggies

-We're the veggies

0:06:510:06:54

# And Sebastian's a singing aubergine

0:07:090:07:12

Nice!

0:07:120:07:13

# Meet the veggies

0:07:130:07:15

# We're the veggies

0:07:150:07:17

# They grow here in my nursery Meet the veggies

0:07:170:07:21

# We're the veggies

0:07:210:07:22

# And that's not all Oh, no, sirree

0:07:280:07:31

0:07:360:07:39

# Oh, they grow here in my nursery

0:07:390:07:42

-# Meet the veggies

0:07:420:07:45

# And we love Mr Bloom

0:07:450:07:47

# That's me! #

0:07:470:07:48

Oh, look! Here they come. Hide!

0:07:520:07:57

I can see you three!

0:07:590:08:02

See! Three! That rhymes!

0:08:020:08:06

Good afternoon, Mr Bloom!

0:08:080:08:11

We're trying to see how many things we can make rhyme.

0:08:110:08:15

Oh, like silly billies, for example?

0:08:150:08:18

ALL LAUGH

0:08:180:08:19

-Oh, do you want to play?

-Oh, yeah, go on, then!

0:08:190:08:23

OK. What words rhyme with...

0:08:230:08:28

Bean!

0:08:280:08:30

-Hey, I've got one. Aubergine! That rhymes with bean.

-Yeah!

0:08:310:08:35

Hey, speaking of aubergines, where is Sebastian? He'd love this game.

0:08:350:08:40

Sebastian? Sad Bean.

0:08:400:08:43

Sebastian's sad? Why is he sad?

0:08:430:08:47

Well, he's writing a poem, Mr Bloom,

0:08:470:08:51

but he can't think of the last line.

0:08:510:08:54

Sebastian, unable to finish a poem? Well, I'll eat my wellingtons!

0:08:540:08:59

Pray, puree, match-day, oh, no, no, no!

0:08:590:09:05

Takeaway. Argh! I will never finish my poem!

0:09:050:09:08

Oh, tiddlers, hold me!

0:09:080:09:11

-Ah! Oh, that is so good!

-Do you want to talk about it, Sebastian?

0:09:130:09:18

I got a postcard from my Maman at home, and it made me homesick.

0:09:180:09:24

Homesick? Oh, Worried Bean!

0:09:240:09:27

Does Sebastian need to take some medicine?

0:09:290:09:32

Mr Bloom, I don't ever want to get homesick.

0:09:320:09:36

Don't worry, veggies.

0:09:360:09:38

You can't catch homesickness, can you, tiddlers?

0:09:380:09:41

KIDS: No.

0:09:410:09:43

Why don't you tell the veggies what homesickness is all about?

0:09:430:09:47

-It's like when you're upset.

-That's right.

0:09:470:09:51

It's when you're away from home, and you miss it.

0:09:510:09:54

That is right. Oh, how I would love to be in a little cafe,

0:09:540:09:59

in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower.

0:09:590:10:02

Just like the postcard from my Maman. It would make me so happy!

0:10:020:10:06

It does sound nice, Sebastian.

0:10:060:10:10

Ah, but there is still work for this aubergine to do.

0:10:100:10:13

I must finish my poem. Excuse me, Mr Bloom, tiddlers.

0:10:130:10:18

"I love my home with all my heart."

0:10:180:10:21

"Though it is far away."

0:10:210:10:24

"I wish that I could be there now..."

0:10:240:10:27

Oh!

0:10:270:10:28

Oh, poor Sebastian. He's very homesick, isn't he, tiddlers?

0:10:280:10:32

I wonder what his home's like?

0:10:330:10:36

If only we could help Sebastian feel more at home, eh?

0:10:360:10:40

-And remind him of what it's like to be there.

-French Bean!

0:10:400:10:44

You're not a French bean, Colin, you're a runner bean!

0:10:440:10:48

-No, French Bean!

-Oh, I see what you mean. Look, tiddlers.

0:10:480:10:52

That is the postcard that Sebastian's mum sent over,

0:10:520:10:56

so that could give us some clues as to what France is like.

0:10:560:11:00

Tiddlers, what can we see on this postcard?

0:11:000:11:04

There's a cafe.

0:11:050:11:07

Oh, yeah! There's the cafe.

0:11:070:11:08

Can you see that, Natasha?

0:11:080:11:10

Can you see a big tower?

0:11:100:11:12

-Yeah.

-Do you know what that's called?

0:11:120:11:15

-Is it the Eiffel Tower?

-That's right!

0:11:150:11:18

It's the Eiffel Tower. Can you see the Eiffel Tower, Natasha?

0:11:180:11:22

-There it is.

-Yeah.

-Yeah, the Eiffel Tower's very, very big.

0:11:220:11:26

Does anybody know who this is?

0:11:260:11:28

This is a mime artist, and he's a sort of street performer.

0:11:280:11:32

Can you see his funny black hat?

0:11:320:11:34

You know what that's called Natasha? It's called a beret.

0:11:340:11:38

Hey, wait a minute. Look, we can't take Sebastian home, right?

0:11:390:11:43

But we can make him feel at home, can't we?

0:11:430:11:46

By making the nursery feel just like France.

0:11:460:11:49

It's just like those pepper plants we made feel at home outside!

0:11:490:11:54

We could make the Eiffel Tower.

0:11:540:11:56

That's a good idea, Zack!

0:11:560:11:57

That's a really good idea! Sebastian would love that, Mr Bloom.

0:11:570:12:02

-Can we help?

-But of course you can!

0:12:020:12:05

There's going to be loads to do, so Zack and Natasha,

0:12:050:12:09

you come with me, and Katie, you stay there. I'll be right back.

0:12:090:12:13

Shall we look through the dressing up costume? What have we got?

0:12:160:12:21

-A crocodile.

-Natasha, is that good for a waitress?

-No.

0:12:210:12:24

And that makes four.

0:12:240:12:27

Oh, look! OK, so we've got that for Joan.

0:12:270:12:30

-Now we need the mime artist.

-Mime Bean!

0:12:300:12:33

-She knows what she's doing, doesn't she?

-Is that the beret, Natasha?

0:12:330:12:38

-Yeah.

-Yeah!

0:12:380:12:39

Does that look like a handkerchief to you?

0:12:410:12:43

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

-Yeah!

0:12:430:12:45

-Thank you, Zack!

-Brilliant!

0:12:450:12:48

Katie's doing absolutely marvellous work, she is!

0:12:480:12:51

The blue one first.

0:12:510:12:53

-What are they doing, Tom?

-They're building the Eiffel Tower.

0:12:530:12:57

The Trifle Tower? I can't see any trifle.

0:12:570:13:00

-The yellow one next.

-The sunny yellow one.

0:13:000:13:03

-No, not trifle, Barbara, Eiffel!

-Oh!

0:13:030:13:06

-Hey!

-Now then, that's taking shape, isn't it?

0:13:060:13:09

So, where's the trifle then?

0:13:090:13:11

There isn't any!

0:13:110:13:13

Oh. Pity!

0:13:130:13:16

All this talk of trifle, I'm hungry now!

0:13:160:13:19

Oh, tiddlers, this is looking great!

0:13:200:13:24

Right, do you want to come over here,

0:13:240:13:26

and we'll check everything's ready.

0:13:260:13:29

OK, Natasha, can you hold this? What have we got? Oh, the waiter!

0:13:290:13:33

-Waiter all ready?

-Ready!

0:13:330:13:35

-OK, and next, the mime artist.

-Ready Bean!

0:13:350:13:40

Sssh, Colin!

0:13:400:13:41

-Mime artists don't speak.

-Oh. Sorry Bean!

0:13:410:13:45

Oh, what's that? The cafe!

0:13:460:13:49

-Yeah. Is the cafe ready?

-Yeah.

0:13:490:13:52

WHISTLE

0:13:540:13:55

Hey, I think Compo's got something for us.

0:13:550:13:58

Do you want to go and see what it is, Katie?

0:13:580:14:01

Oh, look!

0:14:030:14:04

Some fresh croissants for the cafe! Put them on the table.

0:14:040:14:09

OK, and then there's one last thing. Oh, look here. What's that?

0:14:110:14:15

The Eiffel Tower! Is the Eiffel Tower ready?

0:14:160:14:21

Yes, it's ready!

0:14:210:14:24

Mmm mmm mmm!

0:14:240:14:26

Oh, no! He's a mime artist, but Colin needs to speak!

0:14:260:14:30

Sebastian's coming!

0:14:300:14:32

"I wish that I could be there now..."

0:14:320:14:36

Oh la la, but I am there right now!

0:14:370:14:41

In Paris!

0:14:410:14:42

Bonjour! Erm, oui!

0:14:440:14:46

Katie, Zach, would you take a seat in the cafe?

0:14:460:14:50

Sebastian, would you like a drink, monsieur?

0:14:500:14:56

-A drink?

-Yes, oui!

0:14:560:14:59

We have a fine selection of bottled mineral water!

0:14:590:15:04

Oh, Mr Bloom! Tiddlers!

0:15:040:15:09

It is just like my little cafe at home in France!

0:15:090:15:13

Well, Sebastian, you haven't seen anything yet.

0:15:130:15:16

Because we give you...

0:15:160:15:18

..the Eiffel Tower!

0:15:180:15:20

Oh, me, oh, my, the Eiffel Tower! It is just like home!

0:15:220:15:27

Just like where I used to write my poems!

0:15:270:15:30

"I love my home with all my heart"

0:15:300:15:33

"Though it is far away"

0:15:330:15:35

"I wish that I could be there now..."

0:15:350:15:38

"It would make my day!"

0:15:400:15:42

ALL: Hooray!

0:15:420:15:44

Oh, well done, Sebastian. You finally finished your poem!

0:15:440:15:48

Well, I felt so at home that the last line came just like that!

0:15:480:15:52

SIREN

0:15:550:15:57

Oh, Sebastian, look. You've got a message on the Compo-cam.

0:15:570:16:02

Sebastian, hello!

0:16:040:16:06

Ma mere? Oh, everybody, this is my mother!

0:16:060:16:10

Oh, mother!

0:16:100:16:12

Oh, wow! You can tell she's your mummy!

0:16:120:16:17

Bonjour!

0:16:170:16:19

Sebastian, my dear little aubergine! So lovely to see you!

0:16:190:16:24

But wait, where are you? Are you home, in France?

0:16:240:16:28

No, mother. I am with Mr Bloom in his nursery.

0:16:280:16:32

My friends have dressed the place up

0:16:320:16:35

to make me feel at home, that is all!

0:16:350:16:37

-Now, mother, I have a song for you!

-Oh, fantastique!

0:16:370:16:41

Oh, Sebastian, tres bien, tres bien!

0:16:410:16:45

# Plants from different places Need to feel at home to grow

0:16:500:16:54

# It's terrible to be homesick

0:16:540:16:56

# I'm from France, I should know!

0:16:560:17:00

# So when I felt at home the poem got done

0:17:000:17:03

# So I think I deserve to sing and dance, and have some fun!

0:17:030:17:08

# So now you veggies must be bedded down

0:17:290:17:34

0:17:410:17:42

Settle down, you cheeky wee McGregors.

0:17:420:17:45

It's time for bed.

0:17:450:17:47

Oh, Natasha, may I have a cuddle, please?

0:17:470:17:49

Oh, thank you!

0:17:520:17:53

You built a marvellous Eiffel Tower!

0:17:530:17:57

Thank you, Margaret.

0:17:570:17:59
