00:17There is a place, not far from here, I'm sure you know it, it's ever so near, come down
00:28on the path, and you will see a little gate to Mr Bloom's nursery, hello, this is my
00:40allotment, there's such a lot to see, with my compostarium there is no place I'd rather
00:47be, have you been here before or not, let me show you what I've got, a spade, a fork,
00:53a wheelbarrow, a cabbage, one of beans, tomatoes and a marrow, a watering can, a trowel,
00:59some seeds, radish, lettuce, a couple of weeds, with my veg and plants, I can sing and dance,
01:07see them sprout, watch them grow, pop along and say hello, there's so much they can teach
01:13us all, we'll laugh and learn, we'll have a ball, it's such a special place to be, in my
01:19veggie nursery.
01:29Raymond, do you think the Tiddlers will like our new strawberry plant?
01:33Oh, I'm sure they will, Joan.
01:35Oh, oh wait, I've just remembered, I need to water it.
01:38Raymond, I thought it was my turn to water the strawberry plant.
01:41Really?
01:42Really?
01:42I'm sure it was my turn.
01:44No.
01:44You watered it yesterday.
01:46No, I thought that was Colin.
01:48No, and it was Margaret the day before that.
01:51Oh, now you mention it, I do remember.
01:53And it's my turn after Margaret.
01:56Oh yeah, good point.
01:58Sorry Joan, it's definitely your turn.
02:00Raymond, I know it's my turn, so I'll just...
02:04You cheeky Winnie McGregor's, it was my turn to water the strawberry plant.
02:11What's that compo?
02:13The Tiddlers are here.
02:15Yay!
02:16Come on Tiddlers, in you come.
02:19Oh, hello Tiddlers.
02:21Hello Joan.
02:22Hello Raymond.
02:23Hello Tiddlers.
02:24Hello, hello Tiddlers.
02:25Hello, hello.
02:25Hey look Teddi's, alright.
02:27Oh, that's a lovely looking strawberry plant you've got there.
02:30It's our pride and joy.
02:32Ho ho, I know.
02:34And you're doing a very good job of taking care of it.
02:36Oh, we can't wait to eat the strawberries.
02:38Oh, I'll eat strawberries.
02:41No, not yet Colin.
02:42They've still got a lot of growing, do you do yet?
02:45Yeah.
02:46Oh.
02:46Hey Tiddlers, do you like eating strawberries?
02:49No.
02:49I don't.
02:50Do you not Millie?
02:50I do.
02:51Oh, you do my Hamid.
02:53Hey, do you like strawberry jam?
02:55Yeah.
02:56Oh, I love a bit of strawberry jam on me toast.
02:58Hey, and I tell you what.
02:59I know somebody else who would like to eat the whole strawberry plant.
03:05I know.
03:06Who?
03:07Well, hold there one moment.
03:09Look at it mate.
03:10Here we go.
03:14Hello my beauties.
03:17Here we are.
03:18They are, aren't they?
03:20Yeah.
03:20Hey, me and the Tiddlers found these outside with our friend Ahmed, didn't we?
03:24Yeah.
03:25Yeah.
03:25And you know...
03:26You know what?
03:28Snails just love eating strawberry plants.
03:30Snails!
03:34What's wrong?
03:36Hey, I tell you what Tiddlers, can you come and help me give the veggies a quick cuddle?
03:39Yeah.
03:39Yeah.
03:40I don't know what's the matter with them.
03:42You Tiddlers weren't scared when we found these snails, were you?
03:45No.
03:47Oh, Joan!
03:48Raymond, Colin, we're coming.
03:55Oh, hey up Tiddlers, hey.
04:01It's my Hamid, Ahmed and Millie.
04:04Hello.
04:04Oh, excuse me.
04:05I was just finishing my lunch.
04:07I didn't.
04:08I've been very hungry today.
04:09But I tell you, I'm not the only hungry one in this nursery.
04:13But come here, come and have a look at these lettuces.
04:15Now, who can tell me what that little fella is there?
04:21A snail.
04:22A snail.
04:22A snail, that's right.
04:24And do you know what that cheeky little snail has had for his lunch?
04:28Erm, cabbages.
04:29That is right, my Hamid.
04:31He's been eating my cabbages and he's been eating my lettuces, hasn't he?
04:35Yeah.
04:36He's very naughty.
04:38He's a very naughty snail, isn't he?
04:40And he's greedy.
04:40Yeah, and he's really sticky.
04:42What snail experts.
04:44That's right.
04:46These vegetables, they're supposed to be for my dinner.
04:48But it looks like the snails are going to eat them all first.
04:51So, we need to round up all these snails.
04:55Now, who feels like being a snail searcher?
04:58Me.
04:58Oh, good.
04:59Well, come on.
05:00Let's go find those snails.
05:05We need to remember snails like sliding where it's smooth and hiding where it's dark and damp.
05:11And where's it dark and damp round here?
05:13What about under those leaves?
05:15Shall we have a look?
05:16Yeah.
05:16Can you see?
05:18What's that bear?
05:20A snail.
05:21He's a little snail, isn't he?
05:22All right.
05:23You hold that.
05:24And I will get Mr Snail off the cabbage leaf.
05:28Hello.
05:29Hello, Mr Bloom.
05:36Now, where do you think the snails might be around here?
05:40Oh, look.
05:40There's some leaves.
05:41Shall we go and have a look?
05:43Yeah.
05:43Can you see one?
05:45Yeah.
05:46Where is he?
05:47There.
05:48Shall we turn this leaf over?
05:50Hello.
05:51Hello.
05:51Hello.
05:52Hello.
05:52He was hiding, wasn't he?
05:53Yeah.
05:54What do you think the snail's called?
05:57Cece.
05:58Oh, Cece.
05:59Hello, Cece.
06:00I hope you don't mind.
06:01But we need to take you and put you in there.
06:09Right.
06:10What have we got here?
06:12A snail.
06:13We have.
06:14Can you pick him up for me?
06:15Yes.
06:17Let's get a good look at him.
06:19Oh.
06:19He's a big one, isn't he?
06:21He's fat.
06:22Shall we put him in here with his friends?
06:25There we go.
06:26We're getting quite a snail collection, aren't we?
06:35Muhammad.
06:36Come on.
06:37Oh, well done, my little snail searchers.
06:40Shall we see how many snails we got?
06:42Yeah.
06:42One.
06:43Two.
06:44Three.
06:45Four.
06:46Five.
06:47Five snails.
06:49That's brilliant.
06:50Now, I think we need to make a snail barrier so that we can stop any more snails sliding
06:57up to these plants.
06:58Now, what do you think we could make it out of?
07:01Flowers.
07:01Wood?
07:02Flowers?
07:03Oh, I don't know if flowers would be good because they gobble it all up.
07:06And I haven't got any wood.
07:07But, how about this?
07:09Look.
07:10I've got some gravel.
07:11Do you think snails would like to slide all over that, Millie?
07:14No.
07:16They like it where it's smooth, don't they?
07:19Hey, why don't you have a feel of this gravel?
07:22Go on.
07:23Stick your hands in.
07:24How does it feel to you, Millie?
07:26It's cold and wet.
07:27It's a bit rough, isn't it?
07:28Yeah.
07:29So, what we could do is we could take some of this gravel here and we can pop it on
07:34the
07:35ground around the plant.
07:37So, the gravel's all around it and there's no other way to get on the plant.
07:42That's right, my hammy.
07:44And if a snail tried to slide over this gravel, it'd be very uncomfortable for their tummies,
07:49wouldn't it?
07:49Yeah.
07:50Okey dokes, shall we get down to business then and get building some barriers around
07:54these plants?
07:55Yeah.
07:56Yeah.
07:57Alright.
07:58Hold out your hands then, Ahmed.
07:59Here's your gravel.
08:00There we go.
08:03Very good.
08:04Alright, Millie, could you build me a barrier around this plant there?
08:10Yes.
08:10Yes?
08:11Alright then.
08:11Hold out your hands.
08:12Here it comes.
08:14Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep.
08:16There we are.
08:18Put some around this side.
08:20I'll lift the leaves up there for you.
08:21Here comes a big delivery of gravel.
08:24Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop.
08:26Woah, there's loads.
08:28Put it around the bottom of the lettuces.
08:31We can't leave any gaps, can we?
08:33Let's have a look at our barriers.
08:35We're not snail searchers anymore, are we?
08:38No.
08:38We're snail stoppers.
08:40There we go.
08:42Well done, tiddlers.
08:43Now all of these plants are safe from the snails.
08:46And we managed to clear up the nursery too.
08:56Scraping stitches!
08:58Oh, it's alright, Colin.
09:00Hey, calm down.
09:01Okay, now that jaggedy gravel barrier that we made outside, it soon stopped the snails
09:06from getting to our lettuces, didn't it, tiddlers?
09:08Yeah!
09:09Yeah!
09:10Now come on, Colin.
09:11Take a deep breath for me.
09:13Deep breath.
09:13In.
09:15And out.
09:20Does that feel better?
09:21Oh, yeah.
09:22I can now.
09:23Oh, that's good.
09:25Raymond, I really don't think the helmet's necessary.
09:28Stay away, you hungry snails.
09:31Up, two, three, four.
09:33Up, two, three, four.
09:34Look, look, look, look.
09:35I know you like looking after your strawberry plant, but you needn't be scared of the snails.
09:40Ah!
09:41Snails?
09:42Where?
09:43Where?
09:43I think Mr Bloom is right.
09:45We shouldn't be scared.
09:47Not at all.
09:48Besides, we'd easily spot a snail if we saw one.
09:51We know exactly what they look like.
09:53John?
09:54We'd see them with their big brown shells.
09:56Raymond, what is the matter?
09:57It's a...
09:58a...
09:58a...
09:59a snail!
10:00Raymond, don't be silly.
10:02Ah!
10:03A snail!
10:07Oh, dear, oh, dear.
10:09What a-to-do.
10:10Look, veggies, it's okay, cos I've got with me a pair of top-tiddler snail-searchers,
10:16haven't I?
10:17Now, Mohammed, can you go and pick up them snails for me?
10:20Yeah.
10:21Careful.
10:23Hang about.
10:25They're not snails, are they?
10:27Yeah.
10:29It's the naughty Wee McGregors.
10:31The cheeky radishes.
10:33That's right, Mohammed, they're playing a cheeky trick.
10:37They're not snails, are they?
10:39They're eggshells painted with snaily swirls.
10:42Hey, there's no need to panic, my veggies.
10:45Phew.
10:46Oh, I knew all along they weren't real snails.
10:49I was just pretending to be scared.
10:51Me too.
10:52Yeah, the only snails in here are safely tucked away in Mr Bloom's tub.
10:57Yeah, that's right.
10:58Hmm?
10:59Oh, wait a minute.
11:03Oh!
11:05Oh, dear.
11:05Oh, dearie, dear, tiddlers, look.
11:07The real snails escaped.
11:09No!
11:10No!
11:11All right, now, calm down, everyone.
11:13Never mind.
11:14We'll find them, okay?
11:16Now, veggies, you stay here and protect the strawberry plant, okay?
11:20Okay.
11:20Tiddlers, you're with me.
11:22Let's go and find them snails.
11:23Come on!
11:24If you find them, tell us.
11:25Okay, Mohammed.
11:26Right.
11:27Veggies.
11:28We'll protect the strawberry plant.
11:30One, two, three, four.
11:32Oh, look.
11:33Those radishes are up to their tricks again.
11:35No, Joan.
11:37The wee MacGregors have gone.
11:38Oh.
11:39Oh.
11:39In that case, I found a snail.
11:43A snail!
11:43A snail!
11:44Mohammed!
11:46I'm here.
11:47Yeah.
11:49Oh!
11:50You've put it safe in the tub.
11:52Oh, thank you, Mohammed.
11:53You're my hero.
11:55A snail, where are you?
12:12There he is.
12:18Tools, where are you?
12:22There he is.
12:23Tools, where are you?
12:24Look, number one's getting out. Can you put number one back in again?
12:30Stay there, little snails.
12:45Three?
12:48No. There he is. Come on.
12:51Oh, well done, Millie. What a sticky snail. They're all trying to climb out.
12:58They're all trying to climb out.
13:03Give him a good rinse. There we go. I turned that off.
13:08Pop them in there. Pop them in there. That's better.
13:12Hello.
13:15Oh, well done, everyone. You know, I think that's it.
13:18Hey, shall we see how many snails we've got? Let's count them.
13:22We've got one, two, three, four.
13:30Oh, that must mean there's one still out there.
13:34There's a snail on the loose. Mr Bloom, how are we going to protect the strawberry plant?
13:56Come down here, Tiddly's. Now, what do we have here?
14:01Eggs.
14:02Eggs.
14:02That's right. And I think they're hard-boiled eggs.
14:05So, Compo must want us to use these to help protect the strawberry plant.
14:09Come on. Let's take a closer look at the make table.
14:14Right.
14:14So, here are our eggs.
14:17My egg's a bit broken. Are yours broken as well?
14:19Yeah.
14:20A little bit.
14:21Look. Look what's happened to the shell.
14:23It's all coming off and, oh, it's feeling very jaggedy.
14:27It's feeling just like that jaggedy barrier of gravel we used outside.
14:32Do you remember?
14:32Yeah.
14:33We put it around the lettuces.
14:34So, maybe, if we peel off all this eggshell, we could create a jaggedy barrier around our strawberry plant.
14:42Yeah.
14:43It will roll your eggs around until that shell gets nice and broken up.
14:48Or you can do like that.
14:50Yeah, you can crack it.
14:52Now, very gently, with your finger and thumb, can you peel it off?
14:57Oh, that's good work, Mahami.
15:00The eggshell's all jaggedy.
15:02And those snails don't like sliding over jaggedy surfaces, do they?
15:08No.
15:08Right.
15:09Come on, tiddlers.
15:10We've got everything ready to protect this strawberry plant, haven't we?
15:14Hello, vegetables.
15:16Hello.
15:17Okay.
15:17Hello.
15:18Take some of this eggshell, then.
15:20Can you reach over, Mahami?
15:21There we are.
15:22And then sprinkle it around the strawberry plant.
15:26Ooh.
15:27Look at these veggies.
15:29Yeah.
15:31That's clever.
15:31Do you need some more, Mahami?
15:33Yeah.
15:33Here you go.
15:35Do you think this plan is going to work?
15:37Yeah.
15:39They don't like rough things.
15:41Oh, they don't like rough things.
15:42Put some down there, Millie.
15:43There's a bit of a gap.
15:44Right.
15:47There we go.
15:50Top work, snail stoppers.
15:52And just in time, Mr. Bloom.
15:54Look.
15:55Aaaaah!
15:58Aaaaaah!
15:59Aaaaaah!
16:00Aaaaaah!
16:00Aaaaaah!
16:01All right.
16:02Let's sort this out.
16:03Come here you.
16:04Oh, you!
16:05Oh, you've been scaring my veggies.
16:09You don't need to be afraid. He's popping back in there with his other more friends.
16:14He's with his friends now, isn't he?
16:16In his play park.
16:18In his play park with his giant cabbage leaf.
16:21Well, I think, Millie, that's the last of the lot.
16:25Well done, my snail stoppers! The strawberry plant is saved!
16:30Yay!
16:32Hey, I think this calls for a celebratory song.
16:35Sebastian, can you help us out?
16:38Ah, but of course I can!
16:40One, two, escargo!
16:47We had to stop the snails from munching fruit and veg.
16:51They like smooth surfaces, so we made one with a jagged edge.
16:56Our eggshell barrier will help get the job done.
17:00Now I think we all deserve to sing and dance and have some fun!
17:05La la la la la la...
17:21La la la la la, la la la la...
17:30Oh, one more time!
17:32La la la la la la...
17:40We've had a busy day, how the time flies
17:44So now you veggies must be buried down
17:49For the night
17:51Come on, Margaret, Colin, Raymond, Joan and Sebastian.
17:57Hey, settle down, you cheeky wee McGregors.
18:00It's time for bed.
18:02Got a kiss.
18:04Mwah!
18:05Night-night, Mohammed.
18:08Aww.
18:10Night-night.
18:11Night-night.
18:12Night-night, Millie.
18:14Night-night, veggies.
18:17Sleep-tight veggies.
18:19And listen to my gentle tune.
18:26Night-night, veggies.
18:29Sleep-tight veggies.
18:32We'll see you again soon.
19:11Yes, it's that time again.
19:13It's birthday time on Sunday the 15th of January.
19:16Ellen, you are seven today and I love this fabulous card.
19:21It's very sparkly.

20:12There you are, waiting to celebrate.
20:14Oh, look.

21:00Our next birthday card is for Lucas.
21:05But Lucas, where are you hiding?
21:06I think you've joined the Octonauts for an underwater adventure.
21:11Yes, there you are.
