Episode 5: Big Bee’s Wanderlust

Big Bee’s Wanderlust leads to big adventures

In this episode, Big Bee’s wanderlust takes him far and wide and leads to big adventures. Big Bee is a real ‘homebee’ who is usually content with buzzing happily among the roses in the Rose Garden, buzzing around the lovely blooms all day long.

The sun is shining in the Rose Garden and Big Bee inspects each rose closely.

He takes his time, and lands softly on a delicate rose petal.

The Rose Garden is the most beautiful and peaceful place, and Big Bee delights in his home garden.

Big Bee feels the urge

It takes a lot to disturb Big Bee, however a ‘stunning’ encounter with Pog causes Big Bee some unrest.

The twins, Pip and Pepper, chase Big Bee who takes refuge on Pog’s head. Polly, Pog’s Ma, rushes forward to save Pog from Big Bee, however disaster strikes! Pog and Big Bee end up among the roses. Although this is the second time that Pog finds himself on the ground, among the roses, this is the first time for Big Bee.

This changes the Rose Garden for Big Bee! It is not a peaceful place any more. Big Bee, dusts himself off and feels the urge to follow new flight paths.

The urge to ‘wanderlust’ grips Big Bee and he catches the first breeze to his new adventure!

Big Bee discovers many new places, strange sights, gardens, dazzling colours and lovely flowers. Big Bee makes friends with Bizz and Bozz who love to buzz. These new friends enter a local bee-buzzing contest. However, it is Big Bee who wins first prize for the ‘Best Buzz’ and receives a handsome trophy for his buzzing efforts.

The effects of too many frenzied buzzing contests however, take a toll on Big Bee’s particular ‘Bee-ness’ and Big Bee decides to take a break from wanderlusting. Big Bee times his arrival home to the Rose Garden brilliantly! It is Peg & Pog’s wedding day and all dolls are excited on this joyous occasion.

Episode 2: Whose wedding is it anyway

Dolls are different, or are they?

The path of true love never does run smoothly, even in Doll families! When Doll family members get the great news of Peg & Pog’s engagement, they spring into action!

Wedding Planning with the Family

Peg & Pog find that family wedding planning is not a simple activity. Everyone wants to have a say! Ideas come thick and fast. Culinary delights, creative pursuits and special talents are offered as the excitement grows. All is not plain sailing in the wedding planning department. Their families and newfound friends are eager to ‘help’ in the wedding planning. Peg & Pog feel left out!

Whose wedding is it anyway?

Peg & Pog want to have their say in the wedding planning, after all it is their wedding. The ‘help’ that their families and friends are so keen to offer is not exactly what Peg & Pog want. They pluck up the courage to ask the question, “Whose wedding is it anyway?”

What Peg Wants

Peg dreams of a romantic wedding day.

Peg loves to picture how she will look as a radiant bride on her special day.

Not only does Peg want to be a princess on her wedding day, she also wants a wedding ceremony in her favourite place, the Rose Garden.

Peg loves unique and personal touches that bring joy and delight! Peg really looks forward to celebrating with family and friends.

What Pog Wants

Pog doesn’t really know what he wants for his wedding day. He’s never been married.

Weddings and marriage is serious business, and Pog feels that it requires careful thinking.

Being a single bloke, Pog doesn’t quite know how to plan a wedding and what he should think about.

Pog wants to make his wedding day the best day ever, however planing and thinking takes time, effort and patience.

Wedding Planning can be a headache

Peg and Pog struggle with wedding planning!! How do they plan a wedding that everyone will enjoy and feel included? Do they risk hurting feelings and insist that things are done their way? Do they try to please everyone, or do they just elope and avoid all the fuss? This wedding planning task gives Pog, in particular, a headache.

It all gets a bit too much for Peg & Pog. They decide to regroup and think about what they want for their special day. What are their ideas, their dreams, their wishes? Whose wedding is it anyway?

Peg & Pog retreat to their ‘secret place’ for some peace and quiet. Time to smell the roses and relax.
