Wriggling Fingers is the sixth episode of the first series. It first aired September 13th, 1999. It last aired September 10th, 2009.

Synopsis[]

The Tweenies sing two of their favourite songs - Put Your Finger in the Air, and Tommy Thumb - and it sets them thinking about what they can do with their fingers. They use their hands to make shadow animals while they sing more of their favourite songs. Then they make puppets from gloves and bits and pieces from the messy area, and this leads to a special puppet show narrated by the very able Bella.

Trivia[]

  • The songs Put Your Finger in the Air (which had the full version aired during the CBBC airings) and Tommy Thumb (always was shortened) from this episode have extended versions which can be viewed on the Song Time! VHS and DVD. They were most likely shortened in this episode for time reasons.
  • This is the episode with the most songs, clocking in at 6. No other episode has this many songs.
  • This was also one of the first episodes to be recorded, which explains the somewhat awkward dialogue exchanges.
