Grandpa's Drum

recommended age Unlock co-watching from 2

Molly finds an old photograph of her grandfather Nat as a boy, singing and drumming with a young girl, and learns that he no longer sings because he gave his drum away long ago. With her friend Tooey, she uses clues in the photo (mountains, a water tower, train tracks, and partial letters on a sign) to locate the town of Tiritchik and find the now-grown woman who still has the drum. The elder Shyahtsoo explains that at boarding school Native children were forbidden from singing their own songs, which is why Grandpa stopped. Molly returns the drum, and during the community show Grandpa rediscovers his songs and drums alongside her, followed by a live-action segment of Alaska Native children sharing their own traditions.

Scratch's Hidden Treasures

recommended age Unlock co-watching from 3

Scratch, a small new digger, arrives for his first day on Bob's construction team and is disappointed when Bob asks him to watch the others instead of giving him a job. He visits Scoop, Muck, Roley and Wendy hoping to help, and each one tells him to watch and learn. While practising digging on his own, Scratch uncovers a buried vase that the museum curator David Mockney recognises as the long-lost Mockney Monk vase. The episode ends with Bob and the team welcoming Scratch as a full member of the crew.
