Love Monster - CBeebies - BBC

Love Monster is directing a play. All his friends want a part and choosing is difficult.

Love Monster is directing a play called The Mystery Package, but he can’t decide if Tiniest Fluffiest Bunny or Bad Idea Puppy should get the starring role of the package presenter.

It’s Put On A Play Day and Tiniest Fluffiest Bunny and Bad Idea Puppy are both hoping that they are picked for the starring role in a play called The Mystery Package. Love Monster doesn’t know which role he would like but, when Elder Kitten announces that this year, he would like to play a tree, Love Monster is given his role of the director. Love Monster isn’t sure what a director does so Elder Kitten tells him that it means he is the leader - he just has to be fair and make choices so the play is the best it can be. Love Monster holds auditions for the starring role of the Package Presenter and first up is Tiniest Fluffiest Bunny. She does a dance routine accompanied by some off-key hum-singing and Love Monster loves it. He’s excited to give the role to his best friend but just then Bad Idea Puppy rolls in on his skateboard and auditions with a cool stunt before crashing into some props. Love Monster loves Bad Idea Puppy’s audition too and can’t decide who to give the starring role too; he’s worried about having to pick between his friends. Love Monster avoids making a decision and asks the In Chicks if he can help paint the set instead. They tell him to grab a brush and dive in, but he can’t find one. Bad Idea Puppy skates in holding a paint brush, eager to show off his skills as a package presenter. But rather than deliver the brush to Love Monster, he loses control of the skateboard and accidentally paints the sky of the set grey. Love Monster worries about the set and just then Tiniest Fluffiest Bunny arrives to present him with a soft pillow to calm his nerves. But when she tries to deliver the pillow to Love Monster, Tiniest Fluffiest Bunny trips on a paint can and the pillow rips, sticking bits of fluff to the set like gloomy clouds. Bad Idea Puppy and Tiniest Fluffiest Bunny ask Love Monster again which one of them he is going to choose for the starring role, but Love Monster doesn’t want to hurt either of his friends’ feelings. But before he has to make a decision, they are interrupted by Delivery Duckling who arrives dramatically on a jetpack with a delivery of a costume for the play. She lands heroically and the friends are amazed at how good she is at delivering things. Love Monster then realises exactly who he should cast for the starring role of the package presenter – Delivery Duckling! Tiniest Fluffiest Bunny and Bad Idea Puppy are disappointed but cheer up when Love Monster says he has the perfect roles for them too. Later, everyone plays an important role in the play; Tiniest Fluffiest Bunny sings gloomily, and Delivery Duckling presents her with the mystery package of Bad Idea Puppy who uses his skateboard skills to repaint the grey sky on the set a bright cheerful blue. The play is a great success, all thanks to the director Love Monster who takes a well-deserved bow.
