Bella fights with snakes and leaves them on the floor to go to Fizz’s tea party; Milo nearly falls over them on his scooter. Doodles ends up falling while chasing Izzles for his ball; she puts the ball on the floor making Fizz fall over. Judy tells the others never to leave toys on the floor.
3 Throwing Max wants to make a video of the Tweenies in the garden, however, because they are throwing things outdoors he ends up filming them throwing things instead so he shouts “EVERYBODY, STOP!” He tells them to go inside to watch the video on the TV. After discussing with the Tweenies as to what they did wrong, he tells them never to throw things.
4 Garden Shed Bella and Jake want to play with gardening things from Max’s garden shed.

He pushes past Fizz to get to the top of the slide and shoves Bella out the way when she was due to take her turn, and he kicks Jake’s bottom on descent at the bottom of the slide from not waiting for Jake to get up first. Max tells Milo to sit inside. Izzles and Doodles tell him it is not nice to hurt people’s feelings, and how to play safely on the slide.

13 Fire Safety Fire can be very unsafe, so the Tweenies help us and children to understand this with Milo pretending to be the fire.

Expanded 40-minute episodes[edit]

In 2001, following the success of the Teletubbies omnibus editions which were broadcast on the BBC on Sunday mornings, 18 40-minute episodes of the Tweenies were produced, which featured the Tweenies at home instead of playgroup, usually in their bedroom, talking about recent & past episodes from Series 4-6 which were originally broadcast in 2000–2001, with clips. These were shown intermittently in the UK on BBC Two in 2001 and BBC One in 2001 and 2003. They were last repeated in 2007 on CBeebies.
