Bob the Builder

- Season 5

(2001)

Scruffty disappears down a hole while chasing rabbits in Farmer Pickles's field. Passing the field, Muck hears a weird howling sound and thinks it's a ghost. Bob shines a torch into the hole and sees Scruffty. Lofty lowers his hook into the hole and Scruffty manages to hold on whilst Lofty hauls him out.

Mr Carruthers the Chief Building Inspector arrives in Sunflower Valley to inspect the Teams work, but what if he doesn't think Bob's team have done a good job! The machines set about trying to show all the good bits of Sunflower Valley but only remember their mistakes!

Farmer Pickles wants Bob to build a hen coop. While Bob goes off in search of materials, Spud guards the eggs and is soon in for a surprise.

Wendy holds a surprise party for her sister Jenny and invites the entire town, but after all the preparations are finished, the machines are too tired to attend.

When Spud discovers some old wheels, an ironing board and a saucepan at the Recycling Centre, he decides to use the materials to build himself a skateboard. But things don't go to plan when Spud test-rides his new toy.

Muck is frightened by the gurgling noises coming from a blocked drain, and Dizzy convinces her that it is a monster.

Spud discovers a dragon costume, which he 'borrows'. He meets Muck and pretends to be a magic dragon, offering Muck three wishes. While Muck shuts her eyes, Spud paints a cat's face on her with some make-up, then runs off. Whilst being chased, Spud trips and falls - ruining the costume in the process. Wendy saves the day by making a new costume out of some junk from Mrs. Potts' loft.

Scoop ignores everyone's protests and enters Pilchard the cat into the local dog show. His attempts to teach Pilchard tricks meet with feline indifference, and hilarity from the other Machines.

Bob is building a hide for the bird-watching society. Mr Bentley is hoping to see a Greb Warbler. A mischievous Spud disguises himself as a Warbler to scare everybody. However, Spud ends up attracting the real Warbler and Mr Bentley is able to get some pictures. As a reward, Mr Bentley gives Spud a pair of binoculars.

Bob's Auntie Dora, a stickler for tidiness, is coming to stay. Bob asks the gang to tidy up the yard - while he goes to get his suit - and chaos ensues. However, help arrives in the shape of an old lady, whom the Machines assume to be Aunt Dora. Bob comes back to find the yard spick and span, but finds that the old lady isn't his aunt at all.

It's Bob the Builder to the rescue in this action-packed Christmas adventure! In "Bob's White Christmas," Bob and his Can-Do Crew dig their friend Farmer Pickles out from a snow-in, have snowball fights, and open their presents underneath a brilliant Christmas tree they all helped to build and decorate. Help Bob stay warm in "The Big Freeze" and "Bob of the North," as the crew proves once again that fun is getting it done! Watch Bob lend his helping hand by plowing the roads, feeding a flock of hungry ducks, and building a cozy little home for a family of chilly ...

After nearly flattening Bob's toolbox, an anxious Roley promises to be more careful - but becomes more accident-prone than ever.

Heavy snow causes chaos. While Bob and Wendy repair Farmer Pickles' roof, Wendy's sister Jenny makes a new doghouse for Scruffty out of snow.
