The Follow The Leader Dance

This article is about the dance. You may be looking for the reboot episode of the same name.

The Follow The Leader Dance is one of the dances that the Teletubbies do. The Teletubbies do this dance inside the house with Noo-Noo.

Plot

The dance starts with the Teletubbies sitting on the step near the Control Panel. They turn their heads right and look towards Noo-Noo as he goes along, being the leader. Then, the Teletubbies get up, getting in a line with Noo-Noo being first in line and Tinky Winky being last in line. The Teletubbies follow Noo-Noo and everything he does during the dance. First, they walk in a line. Next, they all spin around one by one. Next, they dance backwards and forwards. They keep going forwards as they go to the Tubby Toaster. Then, the Teletubbies follow Noo-Noo as they go around the Tubby Toaster in a few circles. Then, Noo-Noo sways his sucker up in the air as the Teletubbies sway their arms up in the air. They all keep dancing forward again and spin around again. Then, they follow Noo-Noo around the Tubby Beds. They go back to the Control Panel. The dance ends as the Teletubbies sigh and sit back down on the step near the Control Panel.
