0:01:16 > 0:01:20Oh, hello, Joan. What an exciting day it is today.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22The grand veggie fete!
0:01:22 > 0:01:25I don't know about you, but I'm exhausted already.
0:01:25 > 0:01:29So I'm having a little rest before I get on with things.
0:01:29 > 0:01:33You rest. It is such a beautiful sunny day.
0:01:33 > 0:01:34Yes, it's lovely.
0:01:34 > 0:01:38Ah, the sun is good for everything in the garden. Hm?
0:01:38 > 0:01:42Er, sorry, Sebastian, but you're blocking the sun.
0:01:42 > 0:01:44Let me get you something to relax.
0:01:44 > 0:01:47No, no, just get out of me...
0:01:47 > 0:01:51Oh, that's better. Lovely sun. Ah!
0:01:51 > 0:01:53This will help. Ha-ha!
0:01:53 > 0:01:55Un, deux, trois...
0:01:55 > 0:01:58DEEP HUMMING NOISE
0:01:58 > 0:02:00What's that?
0:02:00 > 0:02:04I have asked our good friends the Little MacGregors
0:02:04 > 0:02:06to play a soothing tune on their tubaphone.
0:02:06 > 0:02:08LAUGHING
0:02:08 > 0:02:11WITTERING
0:02:11 > 0:02:14No. No, thank you, Sebastian, no.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16And you're in the way of the sun again.
0:02:16 > 0:02:21Just tell the Wee MacGregors thank you, but I do need a little rest.
0:02:21 > 0:02:24But are you sure there is nothing I can get you?
0:02:24 > 0:02:26Er, no. No...
0:02:26 > 0:02:29Oh, no, yes, there is, actually.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32Um, a rainbow.
0:02:32 > 0:02:36- What?!- A rainbow. Could you get me one?
0:02:36 > 0:02:41- This will help you relax?- Oh, yes. When it was raining yesterday,
0:02:41 > 0:02:46there was a rainbow a long, long way away, over there.
0:02:46 > 0:02:50I don't know if it's still there, but you should go and have a look.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52Alors, there is no time to lose.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55I will get my rainbow net and get it. A-ha!
0:02:55 > 0:02:59Ahh! Ha-ha! Oh, that should keep him busy.
0:02:59 > 0:03:03And I can enjoy the sun in peace.
0:03:03 > 0:03:06Ahh!
0:03:07 > 0:03:09WHISTLE BLOWS
0:03:09 > 0:03:11Surprise!
0:03:11 > 0:03:14Oh! Ohh!
0:03:14 > 0:03:17Tiddlers! Whoo-hoo! It's nice to see you.
0:03:17 > 0:03:19Hello, Katie.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21- Hello, Zak.- Hello.
0:03:21 > 0:03:23Hello, Natasha.
0:03:23 > 0:03:27One of the best things about a sunny day like this in the garden
0:03:27 > 0:03:30is that you get to play with all the outdoor toys.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33- Yes!- Oh, and I've got a surprise. Are you ready?
0:03:33 > 0:03:37The surprise is over there, underneath that box.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39Let's see what's under there, Katie.
0:03:39 > 0:03:44- It's a bubble machine. - A bubble machine.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46Why don't you turn it on, Zak?
0:03:46 > 0:03:50- It's not working.- You what? It's not working?- Button.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52Oh, hang on, let's see.
0:03:52 > 0:03:54It's not working, is it?
0:03:54 > 0:03:59Button's being pressed... Oh! That's the problem.
0:03:59 > 0:04:03- Look. What should be in here? - Batteries!
0:04:03 > 0:04:05Batteries, that's right.
0:04:05 > 0:04:09It won't work without batteries, no, cos that's where
0:04:09 > 0:04:11it gets its energy from.
0:04:11 > 0:04:15Oh, well, no batteries, we can't use the bubble machine. Shame.
0:04:15 > 0:04:20But it doesn't matter because I've got the best outdoor toy of all -
0:04:20 > 0:04:24Compo! Can we have some bubbles, please, Compo?
0:04:24 > 0:04:25WHISTLING
0:04:25 > 0:04:27Hey!
0:04:27 > 0:04:29Bubbles!
0:04:29 > 0:04:32Whooh!
0:04:32 > 0:04:35Hey-hey, catch the bubbles, that's right.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45Compo's full of energy today.
0:04:45 > 0:04:47WHISTLING
0:04:47 > 0:04:51But what about plants? Where do they get their energy from, eh?
0:04:51 > 0:04:52The sun.
0:04:52 > 0:04:55From the sun, that's right.
0:04:55 > 0:04:59The leaves collect all that energy and use it
0:04:59 > 0:05:01to turn water and air into food.
0:05:01 > 0:05:04Let's go and see what plants in my nursery
0:05:04 > 0:05:07get their energy from the sun. Come on.
0:05:14 > 0:05:18Hey-hey-hey, Tiddlers, what have we got here?
0:05:18 > 0:05:22They're not getting very much sunshine, are they, Natasha?
0:05:22 > 0:05:24No. And if they don't get sunshine,
0:05:24 > 0:05:27they won't get any energy, will they?
0:05:27 > 0:05:30What's getting in the way of the sunshine for these tomato plants?
0:05:30 > 0:05:32The leaves.
0:05:32 > 0:05:37Yeah, that... Tiddlers, where...? That is absolutely right.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40Oh! It's this bushy plant, isn't it?
0:05:40 > 0:05:45I think this plant has grown so big that it's hogging all the sunshine.
0:05:45 > 0:05:50That means our little tomato plants are getting no energy at all.
0:05:50 > 0:05:52What do you think we could do, Katie?
0:05:52 > 0:05:55You could cut that one down.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58We could give this plant a trim, couldn't we?
0:05:58 > 0:06:01So, you Tiddlers, collect the branches
0:06:01 > 0:06:03- and I'll do the snipping, all right? - Yeah.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06Now, you hold that, Natasha.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10There they go.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13Shall we put that one in there as well?
0:06:13 > 0:06:15Wow, there's lots of leaves on this bit.
0:06:15 > 0:06:18Oh, there.
0:06:18 > 0:06:20One last snip and then we're done.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22Snip!
0:06:22 > 0:06:23There.
0:06:23 > 0:06:27There we go, Tiddlers. That's cleared the way, hasn't it?
0:06:27 > 0:06:31Now there's room for all the sunshine to come in
0:06:31 > 0:06:34and for these tomato plants to get their energy.
0:06:34 > 0:06:38Hey, I tell you what, Zak, pass us those clippings, cos I know
0:06:38 > 0:06:40who'd like to eat these.
0:06:40 > 0:06:42BOTH: Compo!
0:06:42 > 0:06:43That's right.
0:06:43 > 0:06:45GURGLING
0:06:45 > 0:06:48Come on, it's feeding time.
0:06:48 > 0:06:52# Grass and weeds and leaves from trees
0:06:52 > 0:06:54# Thistles that prickle and petals that tickle
0:06:54 > 0:06:57# Brown stuff, green stuff Sticky stuff, icky stuff

0:07:08 > 0:07:12ALL: It's full! Hooray!
0:07:13 > 0:07:14Ooh, hang about, Tiddlers.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17Here goes Compo!
0:07:45 > 0:07:49Right, then, Tiddlers, are you ready to meet the veggies?

0:09:13 > 0:09:15It's going to be great fun.
0:09:18 > 0:09:21- Hello, Tiddlers.- Hello, Tiddlers.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23- Hello.- Hello, Mr Bloom.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25- Hello there, veggies. - Hello, Mr Bloom.

0:09:30 > 0:09:33It looks like you're ready for the fete, Joan.
0:09:33 > 0:09:35- Have I forgotten anything? - Don't panic.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38Do you think a cuddle would help?
0:09:38 > 0:09:40- Oh, I think it might. - All right.
0:09:40 > 0:09:44Katie, could you give Joan a little cuddle to calm her down?
0:09:44 > 0:09:46Ohh!
0:09:46 > 0:09:49- Aw!- Aw, that's nice, isn't it, Natasha!
0:09:49 > 0:09:53Thank you, Katie. I just want everything to be perfect
0:09:53 > 0:09:56for our special guest who's coming to open the fete.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58Oh, who might that be?
0:09:58 > 0:10:00Lord Pumpkin.
0:10:00 > 0:10:02He's a very important vegetable.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05Who is Lord Pumpkin?
0:10:05 > 0:10:08Oh, he's not a pumpkin, he's an onion.
0:10:08 > 0:10:10Pumpkin's his family name.
0:10:10 > 0:10:15It goes back hundreds of years to the Battle Of Pumpkin Field in 1148.
0:10:15 > 0:10:19Let me tell you about it. It all started back in the mists of time.
0:10:19 > 0:10:25Our fete has to be the best. We need to be bold, we need to be fun.
0:10:25 > 0:10:28We need to be...erm...unique.
0:10:29 > 0:10:31Oh, I hope he likes my bunting.
0:10:31 > 0:10:34But, Raymond, there's only one of each colour.
0:10:34 > 0:10:40Well, I ran out of red paper and, erm, white paper. And blue paper.
0:10:40 > 0:10:44- Well, basically, Joan, I ran out of stuff to bunt with.- Oh!
0:10:44 > 0:10:49Oh, hello, everyone. I've got the country dancing all ready.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51Brilliant. Thank you, Margaret.
0:10:51 > 0:10:55- Would you like to learn the country dancing, Tiddlers?- BOTH: Yeah.
0:10:55 > 0:10:59OK, well, up and down...
0:10:59 > 0:11:04- ..and now round and round... - Shall we go in a circle? Here we go.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06..and skip. Skip.
0:11:06 > 0:11:11- Oh, skip, skip, skip. - Oh, that's wonderful, everyone.
0:11:11 > 0:11:15- It'll look even better with the music.- Music?
0:11:15 > 0:11:18Yeah, of course you need music to dance.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21Yes, you need music for dancing.
0:11:21 > 0:11:25- Well, could we ask Sebastian? - Oh, yes, where is he?
0:11:25 > 0:11:27I haven't seen him all day.
0:11:27 > 0:11:32Sigh! No, there is no rainbow here either.
0:11:34 > 0:11:36Maybe it's the hedge.
0:11:36 > 0:11:41He's busy. We'll need to get music from somewhere else.
0:11:41 > 0:11:46Oh, ha-ha-ha! The Wee MacGregors could play their mighty tuba-phone.
0:11:46 > 0:11:48Mee, mee, mee.
0:11:48 > 0:11:50THEY MAKE HORRIBLE DIN
0:11:54 > 0:11:56HE MOUTHS
0:12:00 > 0:12:02I'm not sure anyone could dance to that.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04Oh, I could play the guitar.
0:12:04 > 0:12:07Oh, I didn't know you could play the guitar.
0:12:07 > 0:12:09I can't but I could learn.
0:12:09 > 0:12:11TOOT TOOT!
0:12:11 > 0:12:14Sounds like Compo's got something for us.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17Do you want to go see what it is, Katie?
0:12:20 > 0:12:22COUNTRY DANCING MUSIC PLAYS
0:12:24 > 0:12:27Oh, this looks exactly like what we need.
0:12:27 > 0:12:31Now that's what I call unique.
0:12:31 > 0:12:34It looks funny. I wonder how it works.
0:12:34 > 0:12:38- Batteries.- Batteries, that's a good suggestion.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40How about a clockwork?
0:12:40 > 0:12:46A clockwork radio, that might be it, mightn't it, Natasha?
0:12:46 > 0:12:50I can't see any clockwork bits or bobs on it though.
0:12:50 > 0:12:53Oh, my. The tune does go on.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56Can you make it stop?
0:12:56 > 0:12:59Is there an on or an off button, Katie?
0:12:59 > 0:13:01There's only a sunflower on the front.
0:13:01 > 0:13:05A sunflower? I wonder what that does.
0:13:05 > 0:13:08I tell you what, come back over here, Katie,
0:13:08 > 0:13:11- and let's all have a think, eh?- Yeah.
0:13:11 > 0:13:13Joan? Joan?
0:13:13 > 0:13:17Oh! I have looked everywhere but I cannot find you a rainb...
0:13:17 > 0:13:21- MUSIC CONTINUES TO PLAY - Oh-ho-ho!
0:13:21 > 0:13:28Sweet music. Oh, what is this? A thing of beauty. Ha-ha!
0:13:28 > 0:13:30MUSIC STOPS
0:13:30 > 0:13:33ALL: Aaaww!
0:13:33 > 0:13:37Oh, what a shame. The sweet music, she is no more.
0:13:37 > 0:13:40Ah, such is life.

0:13:50 > 0:13:54Oh, when you get close to it, it stops.
0:13:54 > 0:13:56I know what it is.
0:13:57 > 0:14:02The radio's using a solar panel to get its energy from the sun.
0:14:02 > 0:14:05It's just like plants in the garden. Mm-hmm.
0:14:05 > 0:14:10When there's a shadow over it, it stops the music. Just like this.
0:14:10 > 0:14:12MUSIC STOPS
0:14:12 > 0:14:16Hey, Tiddlers, why don't we show Sebastian our special dance, eh?
0:14:16 > 0:14:20- Oh, yes please. Ho-ho-ho! - All right, everyone,
0:14:20 > 0:14:24just time for one last rehearsal of the grand opening number.
0:14:24 > 0:14:27And there are hats for everyone.
0:14:27 > 0:14:30Dressing up - yay!
0:14:30 > 0:14:32Can you go and get them, Zack?
0:14:34 > 0:14:38Ha-ha! Hat Zack.
0:14:38 > 0:14:42- Thank you, Colin, for the hats. - Oh, you're welcome, Zack.
0:14:44 > 0:14:48OK, everybody, this is our last chance to practise.
0:14:48 > 0:14:52So, Sebastian, if you let the sunlight into the radio,
0:14:52 > 0:14:54we'll perform a display
0:14:54 > 0:14:58of traditional country vegetable dancing.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00Mmm, yeah!

0:15:02 > 0:15:05- Dance.- Here we go.- Ha-ha!
0:15:06 > 0:15:12Can you wave your arms, Natasha? That's it.
0:15:14 > 0:15:16MUSIC STOPS
0:15:16 > 0:15:19Sebastian, you're in the way of the sun again?
0:15:19 > 0:15:24Oh, sorry, I got carried away by the music.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26MUSIC STARTS
0:15:26 > 0:15:28Round in a circle.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31Whee!
