Rockpool is the 23rd episode of the original series. It first aired on 30th April 1997.
Plot
Dipsy goes for a walk and sees lots of things in Teletubbyland. A Voice Trumpet, in song, asks Dipsy if he can see a blue flower, a white cloud, green grass, an orange ball and his favourite friend (who is Laa-Laa). Laa-Laa appears and they have a Big Hug. Then the Magic Windmill starts spinning. The Teletubbies watch as Andy Brown shows some children a rockpool. The Teletubbies do The Walking Dance before Tubby Bye-Bye.
Featuring: Andy Brown with Leon & Chantel Brook
Trivia
- This is the first appearance of Andy Brown.
- This is the first episode that has the extended version of The Walking Dance.
- There are two major rare Windmill clips in this episode. It is when the Windmill is seen in its Start/Stop Spinning Animation in the form of a Bird's Eye View (with half of the Superdome seen), known as Bird's Eye View 2.0.
- In this episode, the first segment has two opening shots.
- This is also one of the times where the Narrator mentions the Windmill, along with Dipsy singing about it. Then the Windmill is seen in a close up view spinning slowly without sparkles. If you look close enough, you can see the Windmill spinning a little faster, making it look like the Start Spinning animation.
- Laa Laa is the boo shouter.
- Dipsy was the missing Teletubby.
