Dipsy and Laa-Laa listen to a Voice Trumpet singing the nursery rhyme ''Hey Diddle Diddle''. The Magic Windmill spins, and then, Laa-Laa receives a video of some children dancing with King Pleasure and the Biscuit Boys as they sing a jazz version of Hey Diddle Diddle. Later, inside the Tubbytronic Superdome, a Voice Trumpet rises and sings the operatic version of ''Hey Diddle Diddle''. Laa-Laa dances and Noo-Noo chases her. Then, Dipsy enters the Superdome. Laa-Laa shows him her choreography, and Noo-Noo chases them. After, Tinky Winky enters the Tubbytronic Superdome. Laa-Laa and Dipsy show him their choreography, and Noo-Noo chases them. Po enters the house. Tinky Winky, Dipsy and Laa-Laa show her their choreography, and Noo-Noo chases them. Then, they all dance together and get chased by Noo-Noo, but the Voice Trumpet goes down, and the Magic Windmill starts spinning. Then, the Teletubbies run out of the house with the Magic Windmill still spinning until moments later when it stops spinning, and it is time for Tubby Bye-Bye.
Featuring: King Pleasure & The Biscuit Boys, The Pupils of Chuckery Infants School, Walsall.
