Trivia[]
- This is the only video that features Alex Pascal, James and Angus.
- Tinky Winky was the boo shouter.
- The missing Teletubby was Laa-Laa.
- This is the first VHS to use the newly drawn Ragdoll logo on the cover. This was used later for the new series of Brum and the first new Brum VHS/DVD "Airport and Other Stories".
- This is the last VHS to feature the rabbits' song. It followed after Laa-Laa’s Rabbit book, and it’s used as a transition into Tinky Winky dances on top of the house (the same version from Paddling Pool).
- Before the Hey Diddle Diddle TV Event, the Magic Windmill spins with the beginning of the Magical event tune as The Dancing segment originally had The Three Ships afterwards. The same thing happens in the Cat's Night Out TV event as the Incy Wincy Spider segment originally had The Animal Parade afterwards.
- This is the second video to have only one scene with Dave Thompson as Tinky Winky. That scene is the first one.
- In the Dutch version, the Wake Up video is replaced with Lighthouse. The Hey Diddle Diddle video is replaced with a video of some Dutch children getting an adult ready for bed. The Po doesn't want to go to bed segment is replaced with Po listening to Twinkle Twinkle Little Star but it cuts out the part where the other Teletubbies arrive and it’s replaced with the Windmill stopping. The Windmill stopping is the same stopping sound used after The Three Ships.
- Also, Dipsy is the boo shouter in the Dutch version, but when the Teletubbies walk up to the top of the house, it's the order from when Po is the boo shouter, and the audio is from when Laa-Laa is the boo shouter.
- In the German version, the Hey Diddle Diddle video is replaced with a different TV Event. This is probably due to King Pleasure and the Biscuit Boys not being shown in Germany.
- Laa-Laa's Rabbit Book segment also appeared in the US version of Numbers - 3 but had a different recording on the narrator's line than it was here.
- On the US back cover, a picture of Po's counting book from Caterpillars was shown but didn't appear in the video.
