The World Wide Croc
Every time I watch the Danger Mouse episode 'The World Wide Spider' and see the eight-legged villain of DM's mission, I think of Louis the Alligator from Disney's The Princess & The Frog. I've been inspired to do a story set during this Disney film, where Danger Mouse and Penfold are pets of Tiana and assistants at her restaurant, who follow her into the bayou when she turns into a frog. It'll be similar to Mickey Mouse in 'The Sorcerer's Apprentice', except it's a crossover between CBBC and Disney. Disney content has been mentioned on CBBC before, hasn't it? On Blue Peter and Newsround it has, yes.

My Diary - 23rd-29th November
23rd November

Despite the mistakes made, I did a high-octane story starring Timon and Pumbaa.
Joe Is A Terrible Carol Singer
Joe was useless at carol singing. He sang off key and annoyed all the other carol singers whenever he showed up at a doorstep. "Oh come on," he begged, "Let me do a show!" "Oh alright," said the carol singers, "But don't be much of a twit like you were last time." Joe sang loud and clear - but all that came out was loud, unnerving screeches. "Not what we were expecting," groaned the carol singers, "Come on, do another trick for us." "Hi-ya!" Joe did his best karate moves, knocking the carol singers out one by one. "Was it something I did wrong?" he asked.
Hacker Is Hungry
Are YOU hungry for Christmas dinner?
"What shall I have for my Christmas banquet?" wondered Hacker to himself. "Maybe a nice juicy turkey to sink my teeth into? No, wait, maybe a joint of ham like in those classic cartoons! I won't eat Brussels Sprouts because they make you fart. How about a nice bit of white bread and crackers with lots of meat paste spread on top? Perhaps a nice iced Christmas cake?" Hacker was wondering about food so much his tummy rumbled and drool began to run like a waterfall out of his gaping mouth. But puppets like Hacker can't drool, not at all, so it just emerged as invisible drool.
Rhys' Festive Execution
"Please, have mercy!" screamed Rhys as he was blindfolded and pinned to a picture of a reindeer on the wall. "Off with his head for taking us off!" shouted Luke. SWING! SMACK! The crowd of CBBC characters cheered as Resus and Cleo gathered up the dead bodies of Boy, Girl, Dog, Cat, Mouse and Cheese and dumped them into the river. "Lu-uke! Lu-uke! Lu-uke!"
Rhys, Hacker, Joe & The Ice Tree
"Is it midnight yet?" asked Hacker. "In one more second," said Joe, smirking. Suddenly, an icy glow filled the air, and ice and snow began to magically cover the normal tree that stood in the pine wood. "YES!" shouted Rhys. "Oh my god," gasped Hacker. "We're going to place the HQ symbol on the tree now!" screamed Joe. Other CBBC stars watched in fear as the presenters struggled to put the HQ symbol on top of the tree. SNAP! CRACK! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA BLOP! The presenters fell to the ground, injuring themselves in the process.
Jody's Response To Being Featured On Big Fat Like
"What the hell did you just say about me, you evil monsters?! Tyler and I have been part of CBBC last decade, and when we get mocked, it isn't very nice. Making fun of others isn't an essential way to make friends, not at all, and having colourful monsters spoof Gogglebox and poke the living daylights out of me and my Dumping Ground friends just makes me so...so...MAD!! I mean, we've tackled bullying, and so has other CBBC shows, including Newsround and Lifebabble. Sketch shows on CBBC are always the worst, and I wish Big Fat Like would have elements where you have to get essential tools from home and join in with the fun, much like The Baby Club over on CBeebies. There's been many reaction videos on Youtube before, especially ones with cartoon characters, but I don't think Youtube should be mocked so mercilessly by my own home...my channel. I'll tell Jacqueline Wilson about this, she was mocked on Horrible Histories in a song, and you know how mad we get when our creator gets mocked! No, wait, not our creator, our friend Tracy Beaker's creator, but still. I swear, if The Dumping Ground gets parodied or mocked one more time, I'll tell May-Li, and she'll put on her boxing gloves and punch you in the face! DO YOU HEAR ME?! REVEEEEEEEEENGE!!!"

Four In One - Learn & Play!
The night is not just for sleeping - it's for learning, playing and having fun too! My four dreams are excellent examples.
The first dream was a maths lesson unlike any other. I took the role of Professor Sybil as I taught my students Cleo, Luella, Dr. F, Bluey, Mum, Dad, Snickers, Chloe and Calypso about Six's name, using the latest resident of the street and Teletubbies episode 'Numbers-Six' to teach them more about why such a name would be given to a monster. As I showed them the footage, I talked with them throughout slight pauses along the way, and the funny part was whenever someone mention the word 'Beginning' or 'The start of' the video would rewind to the beginning of the footage, and everyone would encourage me to stop it. The funniest part was that Luella was drinking orange juice throughout the lesson and she stumbled over to a wall with six green bottles. She began to sing a rendition of 'Ten Green Bottles' as we screamed for her to stop, but she kept throwing bottles onto the ground with a loud SMASH! Bluey's dad was the one who provided sarcastic insights into the footage, and Calypso didn't know math since she specialized in play all the time, but she, Chloe and Snickers got the hang of it. In the end, we all sang 'Six Green Bottles' in the style of Cee Lo Green, which made Dr. F scream in irritation.

The next dream was reminiscent of The Baby Club and featured me and Calypso hosting a parent-baby group with babies Bluey, Coco, Snickers, Judo, Chloe, Honey, Mackenzie, Rusty and Jack and their mums and dads. We lead everyone in Baby Club-style reggae renditions of the Teletubbies songs 'Handy Hands' and 'Little Baby' complete with hand gestures and actions that everyone can join in with at home - including YOU! These activities were just as similar to when they do the songs the Action Song, the Together Song and the Baby Bear Song, except it's all Bluey.

The third dream was a lot quieter, softer and lazier than the others and saw me, Luke, Resus, Cleo, Dig and Lulu living in this fantastic, luxurious red-and-white house. Every single fabricated piece of furniture in the house was soft and cuddly - the curtains, sofas, blankets, beds and everything else was made of cotton, silk and velvet, and everything was tranquil and quiet - how luxurious. We lay down on the sofa and ate white chocolates and drank fizzy blackcurrant juice from champagne glasses. Dig was given dog biccies (like the ones he was given in the Scream Street episode 'Banished') and Lulu was given a pearly glass of blood. We were treated like princes and princesses in this house, and there was nothing to do but laze about all day as roommates.
We splashed in a warm, bubbly hot tub with extra helpings of strawberry bubble bath, and at one point, just like one of the cats in my favourite short animation 'The Dingles', Dig tasted the bubbles only to hiccup them out - from his backend and out of his mouth! There was even a ceiling power shower, just like the one mentioned in 'Starring Tracy Beaker'. Our bed was made of pure silk and was very soft and cuddly - just like my boyfriend Luke - when we settled into bed, we could do nothing but feel the sensual silkiness next to our skin as we, Dig and Lulu fell asleep. Imagine if there was a Scream Street episode where Otto tricks the residents into living in this luxurious hotel/house! I hope that kind of episode airs next year, because in one photo I saw all the Scream Street residents gathered in this red room. I wonder what it means? Hmmmm... Anyway, onto the final dream!
Six and I starred in the Bluey episode 'Burger Shop', where we were helping Dad sort out Bluey and Bingo during bathtime. Bluey and Bingo roped us into their game of burger shop, and we were sent to find various 'sauces' for the burgers - bubble bath, Mum's hand cream and even ointment until Dad told us you can't eat it. At one point, Six and I took off our clothes and joined our blue heeler friends in the tub, where we served out the burgers with our bubble bath/hand cream sauce to Dad - he was very careful not to eat the 'sauce' as it'll damage his health.
Aaah, dreams. Always what you wish for!
