The gang find out about the dangers of alcohol after doubting which drinks are safe for you to drink, but when Small starts to behave strangely, the local doctors suggest Small might do something to get his mind off it, and the gang and their families try to help him.
Light & Heavy:
The gang try to find as many light and heavy things as they can after they find their strawberry mousse is light and fluffy according to the recipe. They then perform an experiment to see which light and heavy objects float and sink.
The gang enjoy themselves at the annual Summer Fete, where they try out delicious food, play fun games, get their faces painted at Mister Maker's face painting stand and try to catch some giant bubbles at the bubble stand. They mostly love the bouncy castle!
Handy Hands:
Showing only the gang's hands, this episode proves just how useful hands really are, from Bingo playing in the sand and water trays at kindy to Izzy using them to write during school lessons to the gang touching with their hands during a tender moment together at Izzy's house.
Skinny Dipping
The gang experience the joys of swimming naked in the local creek, all except for Templeton, who decides to watch, as he is extremely cautious about where he is supposed to swim and always swims fully clothed so he can be safe.
This is the front cover of a Beano issue from 2002, with Dennis and Gnasher singing in the tub! A Refreshers bar came free with this issue at the time, but can you guess what the dynamic duo's favourite song to sing in the bath is? Sing along with the video below and find out!
"Scooby-Dooby-Doo!" Someone commented on my blog entry concerning Boomerang's showing of Scooby-Doo: Curse Of The Lake Monster! Hooray! Somehow he was concerned and liked the cartoon versions better than the live-action versions Cartoon Network made. Thanks, whoever commented on my blog entry! You're the best!
Izzy hopes her sleepover with the gang would be like a big house party - and it is! While Bingo and Tiny engage in quiet activities like playing with their toys and drawing pictures, the bigger kids slide down the banister, bounce on the sofa, have pillow fights and dance to music. When Izzy's mum tells them it's time to calm down, it seems like their house party will have to be put on hold - until the kids realize their and the little kids' games have a lot in common.
Playschool Drama:
Tiny visits Bingo's kindy as part of an assignment. With friends Lila and Missy, the two have fun drawing pictures, engaging in 'dramatic' conversations at snack time, pretend to play 'Big Ted & The Great Wizard' and pretend to play at being neighbours, making phone calls to one another as posh ladies.
Work & Play;
While watching Bluey's friends play in the park, the gang wonder why kids play while some adults work. They ask local businessman Eddie Woo, Buzzbee's dad and Bluey even asks her own mum and dad why they have to work sometimes. Eventually, when invited round to a barbecue, the kids get Dad, Mum, Uncle Stripe, Aunt Trixie and the other adults to play with them.
The gang try to find out if robots like ketchup and rain from Anne and the Good Game Spawn Point gang. Stay tuned for more, and I'll complete the script as soon as I can, because I'm going to take a nap now.
Today's Boomerang movie was Scooby Doo: Curse Of The Lake Monster. In my mixed up mind I made a bit of a mistake concerning how it's made. I thought the Scooby Gang looked like this (see the picture above) in the movie, but instead they're all live action, while Scooby is a CGi dog. And the magazine for dogs Scooby reads near the pool at one point in the movie is kind of eye-catching. And since the movies are made in conjunction with Cartoon Network, I'm so glad they're not airing Adult Swim at night here, only E4 does that. So, if I see that The 'Hood is airing on Adult Swim in the USA, I'm going to punch Mike Lazzo and his cronies in the face! You hear me, Williams' Street? I'll punch Mike Lazzo in the face!
With their neighbour Lucky's help, the gang attempt to find out how people in their neighbourhood like to joke around and make wisecracks. They imagine being the Joke Police, and Lucky wonders if making jokes like these will attract ladies when he attends high school as a teen.
Bluey's Magic Carpet:
Izzy and her mum go to the local hardware shop to get some essentials for the house. Izzy encounters Bluey, Bingo and their parents shopping there as well, and the three are excited about riding on the 'magic carpet' once they get down the tall escalator. The hardware store seems like a maze of wonder to the three kids, who turn on lamps, try out beds and even trick Dad into thinking there are ghosts roaming the carpet section.
Calypso asks Izzy to lead her students in a full day's play session. She does, and in a fun and engaging way, as she uses the song 'Shama Lama Ding Dong' by Otis Day & The Knights to show Bluey and her friends world peace and how by playing together, they can unite a whole world. Through the song, they form a conga line and paint a rainbow mural complete with colourful handprints.
Strange Cases:
Izzy has come down with a cold, and her friends have come round with gifts to help her feel better, including a puppet show from Bingo. However, each time a gift is given to Izzy, outside the neighbours engage in a strange antic relating to the gift, be it Hiccup and Toothless stuffing their faces with chocolate or Nella the princess knight and Trinket picking flowers in a field.
Desire:
It's Bingo's birthday and everyone is going to the local cafe for a special birthday meal. However, Bingo is too focused on a delicious vanilla cake on the counter which everyone is going to have afterwards. Izzy and Tiny show Bingo how to focus and concentrate on one thing before moving onto the next to help her continue with her meal in a fun way.
