Two visitors arrive at Pipkins, one is Mrs Muddle, but the other is unusual and unexpected.
Hartley enjoys the things he can make a glove puppet do, but nobody else does.
Pipkins good neighbour is Mrs Muddle, but how much is she prepared to help Hartley and his friends?
The bottom has fallen out of Tortoises world because a flower pot has fallen on his drum and broken it. Can his friends make him happy again?
Hartley wants to be the leader
Pig decides to be a baddie and brings everything to a halt with his hold ups. Johnny decides that if everyone wants to play at cowboys they should do it at playtime, which they do, but Topov doesn't quite get the hang of what's supposed to be done.
Topov is unhappy. He thinks there are better places to live than Pipkins and that everyone else is better off.
Bertha sets out for the workshop to see Johnny but when she arrives Mr Pipkin and Johnny are out. Although she’s a bit cross, she decides to clean up while they are out. Hartley helps out, but finds the vacuum cleaner too loud for his big ears!
It all started as a game-instead of talking to each other you sing to each other. This leads to a Pipkins play-with singing instead of talking.
Hartley has become a secret sweet eater. He has secret hiding places in every room and eats sweets all the time, but nobody can catch him at it.
If you eat too many bananas, do you turn into one? Most people think not, but Topov isn’t so sure.
Pipkins look after Mrs McNamarra's plants while she is on holiday
Mrs Muddle, Pipkins next door neighbour returns some eggs. Hartley is pleased, as he knows a few tricks with eggs.
Hartley wakes up in a good mood. He wants everyone to be happy and laugh with him. But when they do, he suspects they are laughing at him. He gets angry because he doesn't like being a figure of fun.
