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
0:00:20 > 0:00:23to Mr Bloom's Nursery!
0:00:23 > 0:00:25Hello!
0:00:25 > 0:00:27# This is my allotment
0:00:27 > 0:00:30# There's such a lot to see
0:00:30 > 0:00:32# With my compostarium
0:00:32 > 0:00:34# There is no place I'd rather be
0:00:34 > 0:00:36# Have you been here before or not?
0:00:36 > 0:00:39# Let me show you what I've got
0:00:39 > 0:00:41# A spade, a fork, my wheelbarrow
0:00:41 > 0:00:43# A cabbage, runner beans, tomatoes and a marrow
0:00:43 > 0:00:45# A watering can, a trowel, some seeds
0:00:45 > 0:00:48# Radish, lettuce... a couple of weeds...
0:00:48 > 0:00:50# With my veg and plants
0:00:50 > 0:00:53# I can sing and dance
0:00:53 > 0:00:55# See them sprout, watch 'em grow
0:00:55 > 0:00:57# Pop along and say hello
0:00:57 > 0:01:00# There's so much they can teach us all
0:01:00 > 0:01:02# We'll laugh and learn, we'll have a ball
0:01:02 > 0:01:04# It's such a special place to be
0:01:04 > 0:01:07# In my veggie nursery. #
0:01:14 > 0:01:19Oh. There are so many fashionable hairdos in my magazine.
0:01:19 > 0:01:21They're lovely.
0:01:21 > 0:01:25- Your hair's already nice, Joan. - Oh, thank you, Raymond.
0:01:25 > 0:01:28Oh, but some of these dos are even nicer.
0:01:28 > 0:01:30How about this curly one?
0:01:30 > 0:01:32It's called The Broccoli.
0:01:32 > 0:01:33Hmmm.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35I'm not sure the broccoli would suit you.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38You might be right.
0:01:38 > 0:01:40Oh, look. How about this spiky one?
0:01:40 > 0:01:42Oh! What's that one called?
0:01:42 > 0:01:46Well, the hairstyle is called... The Hedgehog!
0:01:46 > 0:01:47Because it's spiky!
0:01:47 > 0:01:49The Hedgehog. Ooh.
0:01:49 > 0:01:50HE LAUGHS
0:01:50 > 0:01:51I like that one.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53It's very cool at the moment, Raymond.
0:01:53 > 0:01:54Would it suit me?
0:01:54 > 0:01:56Hmmm. Yeah!
0:01:56 > 0:01:59I think you'd look great with spiky hedgehog hair.
0:01:59 > 0:02:01Well, there's only one way to find out.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03Watch.
0:02:07 > 0:02:08Ha ha ha.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11I say, Raymond.
0:02:11 > 0:02:16You look really good with the Hedgehog hairstyle.
0:02:16 > 0:02:17WHISTLE BLOWS
0:02:17 > 0:02:20Oh, the tiddlers are here!
0:02:20 > 0:02:22Yay! Ha ha ha.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27Hiya there, tiddlers.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30- ALL: Hello, Mr Bloom. - Hi there, Zamri.
0:02:30 > 0:02:31Hiya, Charlotte.
0:02:31 > 0:02:33Hello, Elizabeth.
0:02:33 > 0:02:35Hiya. Oh, it's nice to see you.
0:02:35 > 0:02:37In fact, you've cheered me up.
0:02:37 > 0:02:41I've been collecting lettuces from around my nursery. And look!
0:02:41 > 0:02:45They're covered in holes, aren't they?
0:02:45 > 0:02:49- I know what made the holes.- What do you think it was?- It was snails.
0:02:49 > 0:02:55- Or caterpillars.- Caterpillars! - Cos caterpillars really like leaves.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58So we've got snails, caterpillars... I know who did this.
0:02:58 > 0:03:01It was a slimy slug, Elizabeth!
0:03:01 > 0:03:03Ewww!
0:03:03 > 0:03:05HE MIMICS SLUG
0:03:05 > 0:03:06Yeah.
0:03:06 > 0:03:08Slugs can be a nuisance.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10I hope my hedgehog friend's listening.
0:03:10 > 0:03:14He's a secret friend of mine, and he helps
0:03:14 > 0:03:17when I'm not looking. Do you know how he helps me?
0:03:17 > 0:03:20Does he eat all the bugs that eat your lettuce?
0:03:20 > 0:03:22That's right.
0:03:22 > 0:03:25The hedgehog likes to eat slimy slugs.
0:03:27 > 0:03:31They like to eat beetles, too. What do hedgehogs look like?
0:03:31 > 0:03:34They have spines on their back.
0:03:34 > 0:03:37Yes, they have spikes sticking up on their back,
0:03:37 > 0:03:39- like this. - Do they have a long nose?
0:03:39 > 0:03:44- They do.- And when they're scared, they go into a ball.
0:03:44 > 0:03:45They go into a ball.
0:03:45 > 0:03:47They hide away.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50I hope these hedgehogs eat all my slugs.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53That would save my lettuces.
0:03:53 > 0:03:54In fact, it'd be nice to say
0:03:54 > 0:03:58thank you to my secret friend, wouldn't it?
0:03:58 > 0:04:00For eating all these slugs. How about
0:04:00 > 0:04:03we make him a special hedgehog house?
0:04:03 > 0:04:06- Yeah!- Yeah? - And say, "Hedgehog, thank you."
0:04:06 > 0:04:08"Thank you, hedgehog!"
0:04:08 > 0:04:11- I think we need help with this, don't you?- Yeah.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14Who do you think could help us?
0:04:14 > 0:04:16BOTH: Compo!
0:04:16 > 0:04:18Compo, you're right.
0:04:18 > 0:04:19Come on, let's get cracking.
0:04:23 > 0:04:27Loads of cardboard. Hello, Elizabeth! Hiya!
0:04:27 > 0:04:30This could be its window or door where it could get out.
0:04:30 > 0:04:32Hey, that's a good idea.
0:04:32 > 0:04:34Whoa!
0:04:37 > 0:04:39There, like a tunnel.
0:04:39 > 0:04:41What do you think, Elizabeth?
0:04:43 > 0:04:47Zamri, why don't you have a look in that cupboard on Compo?
0:04:47 > 0:04:54- That's it.- Old newspaper and some old leaves.- Some old leaves! Hey.
0:04:54 > 0:04:58These would make the inside of our hedgehog house nice and cosy.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01Take some leaves, drop them in, and Elizabeth,
0:05:01 > 0:05:04we can scrunch up some newspaper.
0:05:04 > 0:05:05Yeah!
0:05:05 > 0:05:08And then pop it in there.
0:05:08 > 0:05:10Oh, well done, tiddlers.
0:05:10 > 0:05:15We've finished our hedgehog house. We need to find somewhere to put it,
0:05:15 > 0:05:19because hedgehogs only come out when it's very quiet.
0:05:19 > 0:05:24Let's see if we can find somewhere really quiet in my nursery.
0:05:24 > 0:05:28- A nice secret corner somewhere. Come on!- OK.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41This looks like the perfect spot.
0:05:43 > 0:05:46I'm going to put some of this straw down as well.
0:05:46 > 0:05:49All this straw will make him feel right at home.
0:05:52 > 0:05:56We can use some of these sticks to hide the house away a bit more.
0:05:59 > 0:06:01It's looking good, isn't it?
0:06:02 > 0:06:03There.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08Hedgehogs are really, really shy,
0:06:08 > 0:06:12so it's important that we leave the hedgehog house alone, OK?
0:06:12 > 0:06:15We don't want to scare them away.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21Right, tiddlers. Let's all be nice and quiet and see
0:06:21 > 0:06:26if our secret friend comes out and says hello. Shhh.
0:06:29 > 0:06:32See anything, Elizabeth?
0:06:32 > 0:06:34- No.- No, I can't either.
0:06:35 > 0:06:38Let's be nice and quiet.
0:06:39 > 0:06:41Who's that?
0:06:46 > 0:06:47Your friend!
0:06:47 > 0:06:50My secret hedgehog friend,
0:06:50 > 0:06:53who helps out when I'm not looking.
0:06:53 > 0:06:58- He looks cute.- He does, doesn't he? - He looks like a spiky ball.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00Oh, a spiky ball!
0:07:02 > 0:07:05Can you see his long, pointy nose, Elizabeth?
0:07:05 > 0:07:08He's going into our house.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10He's coming nearer.
0:07:10 > 0:07:11(Go in.)
0:07:12 > 0:07:17Hedgehogs usually sleep in the day, so he's probably off for a snooze.
0:07:17 > 0:07:21He's gone in our house!
0:07:21 > 0:07:24Shall we wave goodbye?
0:07:24 > 0:07:25Goodbye!
0:07:25 > 0:07:26ALL: Bye!
0:07:27 > 0:07:30Oh! I think that whispering must be Compo.
0:07:30 > 0:07:33He's trying to be really quiet
0:07:33 > 0:07:37so as not to scare the hedgehog away. Hey, and you know what?
0:07:37 > 0:07:40Compo's another friend, but this friend needs feeding.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43Come on, it's feeding time.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47# Grass and weeds and leaves from trees
0:07:47 > 0:07:50# Thistles that prickle and petals that tickle
0:07:50 > 0:07:52# Brown stuff, green stuff, sticky stuff, icky stuff
0:07:52 > 0:07:55# Crunchy bits, munchy bits, snappy bits, sappy bits
0:07:55 > 0:07:57# Yesterday's yums, chopping board crumbs
0:07:57 > 0:07:59# It's not fussy what's in its tum
0:07:59 > 0:08:02# My awesome compostarium. #
0:08:02 > 0:08:03BELL RINGS
0:08:03 > 0:08:05BOTH: It's full!
0:08:05 > 0:08:06BOTH: Hooray!
0:08:09 > 0:08:10Watch out, tiddlers.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12Here goes Compo.
0:08:14 > 0:08:15CHIMES SOUND
0:08:18 > 0:08:19Ooh!
0:08:19 > 0:08:21Woo-hoo!
0:08:40 > 0:08:44- Are we ready to go and meet the veggies?- Yeah!- Yeah.
0:08:46 > 0:08:47# Meet the veggies
0:08:47 > 0:08:48# We're the veggies!
0:08:48 > 0:08:51# They grow here in my nursery
0:08:51 > 0:08:52# Meet the veggies
0:08:52 > 0:08:54# We're the veggies
0:08:54 > 0:08:56# And we love Mr Bloom!
0:08:56 > 0:08:57# That's me! #
0:09:02 > 0:09:04No, no...
0:09:04 > 0:09:05no.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07That won't work.
0:09:07 > 0:09:09No, not that either.
0:09:09 > 0:09:12Tiddlers, what's going on over here?
0:09:12 > 0:09:14Shall we go and see?
0:09:16 > 0:09:18Hello, Raymond.
0:09:18 > 0:09:20Hello, Mr Bloom.
0:09:20 > 0:09:24- I like your new look. - Oh, thank you! Hello, tiddlers!
0:09:24 > 0:09:26- ALL: Hello, Raymond. - Ha ha ha.
0:09:26 > 0:09:28Stop it!
0:09:28 > 0:09:33Oh, oh, oh, look! This is the perfect hat for Raymond.
0:09:33 > 0:09:34Hello, tiddlers!
0:09:34 > 0:09:36ALL: Hi, Joan.
0:09:36 > 0:09:41Could one of you put this hat on Raymond for me, please?
0:09:44 > 0:09:45- Oh!- Hey-hey!
0:09:45 > 0:09:49Yes, that really is a top hat.
0:09:49 > 0:09:53- Ha ha ha.- I've been looking at hats in my magazine, Mr Bloom.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56According to this month's Trowel Trends,
0:09:56 > 0:09:59- all the best-dressed salads are wearing them.- Ahhh!
0:09:59 > 0:10:03- So it's a hat day today, is it?- Oh, yes.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06- Look at Colin and Margaret, too. - Ha ha ha!
0:10:06 > 0:10:07Hat bean!
0:10:07 > 0:10:09Hello, Margaret.
0:10:09 > 0:10:11Hello, Colin.
0:10:11 > 0:10:14Hat bean!
0:10:14 > 0:10:17Colin's hat really sets off his runner bean green.
0:10:17 > 0:10:21And Margaret's hat says, "I'm the cutest cabbage in the nursery."
0:10:21 > 0:10:25- Raymond's hat brings out his butternutty side.- Butternutty side!
0:10:25 > 0:10:28- Ha ha ha.- Where's your hat, Joan?
0:10:28 > 0:10:31- Oh, I haven't got one.- Awww.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33Oh, dear.
0:10:33 > 0:10:35Maybe we could make one!
0:10:35 > 0:10:38- Oh, yeah. - That's a good idea, Joan.
0:10:38 > 0:10:42- We could help, couldn't we, tiddlers?- ALL: Yeah.
0:10:42 > 0:10:43Yeah!
0:10:43 > 0:10:45Thank you.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47(GASPS) I can see it now.
0:10:47 > 0:10:52With netting and feathers. The perfect topping for a fennel.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57It sounds like Compo wants to help.
0:10:57 > 0:11:01Zamri, why don't you come over here and have a look
0:11:01 > 0:11:03to see what Compo's got for us?
0:11:04 > 0:11:07Right, Zamri, what have we got here?
0:11:07 > 0:11:08Feathers, I think.
0:11:08 > 0:11:11What does it feel like?
0:11:11 > 0:11:15- Feels like some tail.- Like a tail!
0:11:15 > 0:11:17Is that nice, Elizabeth?
0:11:17 > 0:11:19I've got a beard.
0:11:19 > 0:11:21- I've got a big moustache. - A moustache?
0:11:21 > 0:11:23HE LAUGHS
0:11:23 > 0:11:26- They're not enough.- That's right, That's what I thought.
0:11:26 > 0:11:30There's one piece of netting and two pieces of feathers.
0:11:30 > 0:11:34That's not enough for a hat! So I don't know what Compo's up to.
0:11:34 > 0:11:38We should go and ask if he's got anything else for us. Let's go!
0:11:42 > 0:11:45Compo, have you got anything else for us?
0:11:45 > 0:11:46WHISTLE BLOWS
0:11:46 > 0:11:47Let's see.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52- What have we got here? - Kitchen thingies?
0:11:52 > 0:11:55- Yeah.- A bowl. - Bowls and sieves and colanders.
0:11:55 > 0:11:58What do you think Compo wants us to do with these?
0:11:58 > 0:12:01- Can we use them as hats?- Yeah!
0:12:01 > 0:12:04- What do you think, veggies? - THEY LAUGH
0:12:04 > 0:12:07I think Compo's got some hats for you, Joan.
0:12:10 > 0:12:15- This one looks like the right size for Joan.- That's a good idea.
0:12:15 > 0:12:19Not really. I'd like one made out of net and feathers!
0:12:19 > 0:12:23Compo's got his camera out. Can you see it? He could take some photos.
0:12:23 > 0:12:28- Give us the best smiles for the camera.- ALL: Cheese!
0:12:30 > 0:12:32Heheheh.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36Smile! Awww.
0:12:36 > 0:12:38Peas!
0:12:42 > 0:12:47Jumping junipers! Look, tiddlers. The netting and feathers have gone!
0:12:47 > 0:12:51- Where've they gone?- Can you see them under the table?- No!
0:12:55 > 0:13:00They're not down there, are they? Cartwheeling cauliflowers!
0:13:00 > 0:13:02Look, tiddlers! It's a hat!
0:13:03 > 0:13:04With net!
0:13:04 > 0:13:05And feathers!
0:13:05 > 0:13:07The perfect topping
0:13:07 > 0:13:10for a fashionable fennel!
0:13:10 > 0:13:11I love it.
0:13:11 > 0:13:15Charlotte, why don't you pop that fabulous hat on Joan?
0:13:15 > 0:13:17Oh, yeah!
0:13:19 > 0:13:20Oooh!
0:13:20 > 0:13:23I love my new hat so much.
0:13:25 > 0:13:27Which one of my friends made it for me?
0:13:27 > 0:13:30- I didn't.- I didn't.
0:13:30 > 0:13:33It wasn't me. Was it you, Colin?
0:13:33 > 0:13:35No, not making bean.
0:13:35 > 0:13:38- Was it you, Raymond? - No, no, it wasn't me.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40It might be Compo.
0:13:40 > 0:13:41Was it you, Compo?
0:13:41 > 0:13:42- No.- No.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44It wasn't Compo.
0:13:44 > 0:13:47I wonder who made Joan's fabulous hat.
0:13:47 > 0:13:52You must have a special friend that helps when you're not looking.
0:13:52 > 0:13:55- I've got one of those, haven't I?- A hedgehog.
0:13:55 > 0:13:56That's right!
0:13:56 > 0:13:59- He's a secret friend.- Ooh!
0:13:59 > 0:14:00How exciting.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02Well, I'd like to say thank you.
0:14:02 > 0:14:05How can we find out who my secret friend is?
0:14:05 > 0:14:07Well, I tell you what.
0:14:07 > 0:14:12Why don't you tell Joan how we got to see the hedgehog outside?
0:14:12 > 0:14:14We made the hedgehog house.
0:14:14 > 0:14:20- What happened?- We had to be quiet so we didn't scare the hedgehog away.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23- Oh!- Oh, yeah, that's clever.
0:14:23 > 0:14:24I tell you what.
0:14:24 > 0:14:27Why don't we leave some bits and bobs out here,
0:14:27 > 0:14:34- and wait around really quietly and see who comes to get it?- Yeah!- Ooh!
0:14:34 > 0:14:37All right, everybody, wait here.
0:14:39 > 0:14:44Right, come on. Squish up. Veggies, come over here.
0:14:44 > 0:14:47We could use these leaves, couldn't we?
0:14:47 > 0:14:49Hide behind these leaves.
0:14:49 > 0:14:51There you go, Elizabeth.
0:14:51 > 0:14:53Mind my hat. You might knock it!
0:14:53 > 0:14:56- Sorry.- Get off my hat!
