Hector the Clown Tilly and Friends

.

# A yellow house with a red door

# My friends live here with room for more

-# I'm Hector,

-Tilly

-# Tumpty,

-and Pru

-# There's Tiptoe,

-and Doodle

# Say how do you do

# To Tilly and her friends

# La la la. #

Doodle! Doodle!

I can't talk now, Hector.

This juicy apple's about to drop.

But I've got some big news.

I've invented an exciting new dance.

-Really?

-Now, you know my dance, the wiggle-wiggle-woo?

Well, I've thought up a new version called the wiggle-wobble-woo.

Hmm.

Watch.

# There's nothing more I like to do

# Than to dance the wiggle-wobble-woo

# I wiggle and I wobble just like a top

# And once I start, I just can't stop. #

So, what do you think, Doodle?

-Yeah, great.

-Well, you don't seem to like it that much.

I've been waiting all morning for the apple to fall

but not even my bitey-bitey crocodile stare...

HE GROWLS

..will bring it down.

I'll show the wiggle-wobble-woo to Pru. It's more her kind of thing.

HE GROWLS

Fall!

A touch of yellow in my hat will make me look even more fabulous

if that's possible.

Oh.

Pru, look at this.

# There's nothing more I'd like to do

# Than do the wiggle-wobble-woo. #

Not now, Hector, I'm busy.

But, Pru, this is really exciting.

Look, there's a wobble in between the wiggle and the woo.

Hector, I am in the middle of a major fashion disaster here.

Oh, sorry, Pru.

Now, run along and show someone else your dance.

Oh, now, what am I going to do about you, hmm?

Oh!

Hello, Tiptoe.

Nobody is interested in my dance.

Nobody is interested in me.

If only I was as exciting as Pru's hat

or Tilly's book on clowns.

Ooh, I've just thought of a way to make myself more exciting.

Buk-buk-buk, what a mess I am.

Just taking some things from the dressing up box.

Yeah. Is it OK if I borrow some of your make-up, Pru?

Hmm.

Thanks.

Hee-hee-hee!

Oh, come on, fall.

Are you talking to me, Doodle,

because I'm very good at falling down?

Ha ha ha, why are you dressed like that, Hector?

I'm not plain old Hector.

I'm Hector the clown! Ha ha!

Ha ha ha, that's fantastic.

Why have you got an apple on your face?

This is not an apple.

THIS is an apple.

NOSE HONKS

Oh, bitey-bitey!

NOSE HONKS

Ha ha, thanks, Hector the clown.

You're amazing!

Go and show the others. They're going to love you.

Stop being so droopy-woopy.

Whoo!

Us clowns are always droopy-woopy.

Hector, I was talking to my flowers.

What they need is a splish and a splash from my flower.

-Ta-dah!

-Ha ha.

The yellow really brings out the colour of my eyes.

You can have this, then.

Oh, oh, thank you, Hector.

I'm Hector the clown from now on.

SHE GIGGLES

You sound like you're enjoying yourself, Pru.

SHE LAUGHS

It's Hector the clown. He's so silly.

Hector the clown, hey? Nice to meet you.

THEY LAUGH

Yippee!

HORN HONKS

Yippee!

THEY LAUGH

Oh, I love Hector the clown.

Me too. I'm never going back to being plain old Hector again.

-What?

-Oh.

-Never ever?

-No.

-Never ever ever?

Plain old Hector wasn't very exciting.

-Yes, he was.

-I miss plain old Hector.

We all do.

AUDIENCE CHEERS

Ladies and gentlemen,

please welcome the star of our show,

the amazing, exciting,

spectacular Hector!

You mean Hector the clown.

Look at this.

I like that

but I love Hector's maracas playing.

Shake it, shake it, shake it.

See, your maracas playing gets everyone dancing.

Now, who would like to see me stand on my head?

I would, but I'd rather hear you say marshmallows.

Oh, yes, that always makes me laugh.

Oh, go on, Hector, say it.

What?

What's funny about the way I say mashy-mows?

AUDIENCE LAUGHS

Mashy-mows. Mashy-mows.

AUDIENCE LAUGHS

Mashy-mows!

AUDIENCE LAUGHS AND CHEERS

Ha ha ha, mashy-mows.

I tell you what else I like, Hector.

Your huffs.

No-one has a huff like Hector.

What, me? I never have a huff.

Hector, you huff all the time.

Do you remember when you had a huff

because you thought your tail was too curly?

I didn't.

There was that time when you had a huff

because the sky was blue and you wanted it pink.

You're all wrong! I never ever get in a huff!

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to the huff tuffet.

Now, that's the Hector we love and miss.

Shall I go and cheer him up?

I think we should leave him alone, Tumpty. He'll be back soon.

Ooh, ha ha! Look at me.

Even stylish in the air.

-Hector.

-We've missed you.

I do get into a huff now and then, don't I?

Only now and then.

Are you back to your old self now?

Better wipe this off then.

That's better.

Now, are you going to show us how to do the wiggle-wobble-woo?

I was thinking about that, sitting on the huff tuffet

and I decided it wasn't very exciting after all.

-Oh?

-Hmm.

So I came up with a new dance called the wiggle-wobble-wobble.

Look, lots of wobbling.

Lots and lots.

You're right, there's lots and lots of wobbling.

I'm good at wobbling.

This calls for some special wobbly lipstick.

Oh, hang on, has someone been using my make-up, Hector?

It was Hector the clown, Pru, not me,

but he asked me to give you this.

HE LAUGHS

THEY LAUGH
