The Teletubbies And Their Fellow Friends Wiki
Advertisement

Plot (UK Original Version)[]

Tinky Winky, Dipsy and Laa Laa go running along the hills and Po pops up to say 'Boo!' and 'Eh Oh!' before she runs off with them to watch a group of children taking photographs of each other's faces. Meanwhile, a telescope appears from far away in Teletubbyland, and Dipsy had fun taking a good look through it to see a lot of different things up close. He can see the Talking Flowers, the Rabbits, a bunch of trees, and even the Tubbytronic Superdome. After a while later, he heard Tinky Winky, Laa Laa and Po shouting 'Big Hug!'. When Dipsy looked through the telescope and found them having a Big Hug near the front doors, he simply ran off toward them just as the telescope disappeared. Afterwards, the Teletubbies all stood in front of the Home Dome to watch The Magic Tree grow in Teletubbyland (same version from the UK Version of Lambs) before the Magic Windmill stops spinning for Tubby Bye-Bye.

Plot (US Original PBS Version)[]

Inside the Tubbytronic Superdome, Tinky Winky, Dipsy and Po have fun saying 'Boo!' from all different areas before catching up with Laa Laa outside to watch a group of children taking photographs of each other's faces. Meanwhile, a chair appears from far away in Teletubbyland, and Laa Laa sits down on it. Then, a Voice Trumpet appears and instructs Laa Laa to stand up and sit down on the chair. Moments later, Laa Laa soon grows tired of listening to the Voice Trumpet, so she picked up the chair and walked far away from the Voice Trumpet as fast as she could. Then, she saw Dipsy walking amongst the hills and she lets him sit on the chair. Po comes by riding on her Scooter and she sat on the chair as well, but only for a short amount of time before she continued on her way. Just then, Laa Laa and Dipsy saw Tinky Winky walking among the hills and they showed him the chair. Laa Laa, Dipsy and Tinky Winky took turns to sit on the chair. Something very strange happened when Tinky Winky sat on the chair, it made some lovely music. Then, Laa Laa, Dipsy and Tinky Winky danced along to the music from the chair until it disappears. They all jumped around and laughed saying "All Gone!". Afterwards, Laa Laa, Dipsy and Tinky Winky do the extended version of The Bumping Dance with Po near the front doors of the Tubbytronic Superdome (same version from the Sunday Special Version of Naughty Duck) before the camera cuts to the sun giggling silently for Tubby Bye-Bye.

Something very strange happened when Tinky Winky sat on the chair, it made some lovely music. Then, Laa Laa, Dipsy and Tinky Winky danced along to the music from the chair until it disappears. They all jumped around and laughed saying "All Gone!", just before the Windmill started to spin (First from its Bird's Eye View Animation, then from its Start Spinning Animation). Laa Laa, Dipsy and Tinky Winky then join up with Po to watch a group of children taking photographs of each other's faces. Afterwards, the Teletubbies do The Falling Down Dance behind the Tubbytronic Superdome (same version from the Sunday Special Version of Making Salad), and then they all run off down the right path to watch the Singing Puppet singing in The Magic House from the Top Right Window (same version from the Sunday Special Version of Looking for Rabbits) before the Magic Windmill stops spinning for Tubby Bye-Bye.

Plot (US Sprout Version)[]

Inside the Tubbytronic Superdome, Po, Laa Laa, Dipsy and Tinky Winky listen to a Voice Trumpet saying the word 'Ouch!' before running out the front doors to watch a group of children taking photographs of each other's faces. Meanwhile, the Teletubbies play a over here and over there game in the fields. They ran back and forth and stand on 2 different sized hills and continued swapping their places repeatedly. Afterwards, the Magic Windmill started to spin once again, and this time the Teletubbies silently ran off across the hills to watch The Animal Parade march through Teletubbyland (same version from the UK Version of Mandir Temple) before the Magic Windmill stops spinning for Tubby Bye-Bye.

Plot (US Sprout 2.0 Version)[]

Plot (US Rerun Version)[]

Tinky Winky, Dipsy and Laa Laa come by running up a hill across from the Tubbytronic Superdome to say hello and see Po walking towards them from behind for a Big Hug before she runs off with them to watch a group of children taking photographs of each other's faces. Meanwhile, a yellow flashing light appears from far away in Teletubbyland, and the Teletubbies had fun marching around it. Each time the light flashed, they counted 5 times each for every flash of light. Afterwards, the Magic Windmill started to spin once again, and this time the Teletubbies excitedly ran off across the fields to watch the Singing Puppet singing in The Magic House from the Top Right Window (same version from the Sunday Special Version of Good Morning) before the Magic Windmill stops spinning for Tubby Bye-Bye.
