The Wiggles - Yummy Yummy '98

Yummy Yummy (1998) is a remake of The Wiggles' second video special, released on Monday April 13, 1998. It is arguably one of The Wiggles' most popular videos along with Wiggle Time! (1998), featuring iconic video clips of some of the band's hits like "Hot Potato", "Fruit Salad" and "The Monkey Dance" (which had first been recorded years beforehand). Some songs were re-recorded for this version. Songs like "Pufferbillies" and "Havenu Shalom Alechem" were not in the original version but added to this video. No songs from the original video were removed, except for "Dorothy's Birthday Party" (which was featured on Wiggle Time!).

Yes, "The Box Of Mystery". Here it is, everyone. (holds up his magic box) This is the box of mystery. Now, it's a very special box and it was given to me by an old magician friend of mine. Amazing, wonderful, magical things. So I thought I'd show it to you, today. Here it is, everyone. (opens the box) There's not much to it. Take a look at this. It's just an empty box. Have a look inside, there's nothing there; totally, totally empty. (calls inside to the box) Hello, hello, hello. (closes the box) Now, if we do some magic together, we may be able yo get something to appear, inside the box of mystery. What I need everyone to do, is wiggle their magic fingers at the box of mystery, just like that, and say the magic words, "Alakazam," and hopefully, something will appear inside the box of mystery. On the count to three, let's all wiggle our magic fingers, and say, "Alakazam." Are you ready? 1, 2, 3, Alakazam! Wow! Hey, hey, hey, hey, you're not going to believe this, there's something inside the box of mystery. Take a look at this, everyone. (pulls out a yellow hanky) It's a yellow hanky. And look, it's the same colour as my shirt. (pulls out a blue hanky) That's fantastic! One magic hanky. What's that? There's another one? A blue... oh! You're right. (laughs) Take a look at that. Thank you for telling me, that I didn't see that one was there. (pulls out a red hanky) Well, now we have a yellow hanky and a blue hanky. And... what's that? There's a red one? Oh, you're right again. Thank you, everybody. This is fantastic. (pulls out a white hanky) A yellow hanky, a blue hanky and, of course, now, we have a red hanky... And a white hanky, you're right again. Thanks, everybody. (pulls out another yellow hanky) This is very, very good. A yellow hanky, a blue... Oh, and another yellow hanky. Wow! Put up your hand if you did that magic. Wow! Well, that's fantastic, everybody. Now, there is something else inside the box of mystery. Take a look at this, everyone. There's one more magic hankie. (pulls out a pink hanky) But this time, it's a different colour. It's a pink magic hanky. Now, what I'm going to do, is put it inside my hand, (covers the pink hanky with his hands) And on the count to three, I need everybody to do a special magic blow, just like this, (blows) and hopefully, we'll make the pink hanky disappear, and it will end up back inside the box of mystery. So on the count to three, everyone, a magic blow onto the hand, let's make it disappear. Are you ready? 1, 2, 3. (blows the pink hanky away) It's gone. Now, if I get out my magic wand and wave it over the top of the box of mystery, (waves his wand over the box) just like this, and say the magic word, "Alakazam," hopefully, the pink magic hanky will end up back inside the box of mystery. Let's take a look, everyone. (puts his magic wand away in his pocket, then looks inside the box) Oh, no, it's not there. I don't believe this! It normally works. Take a look. (opens the box to show that it’s empty) It's not there, it's empty. (gasps) I know what I did wrong. I can't do this magic on my own. I need your help. (closes the box) Would you help me one last time? Great. What I need everyone to do, is wiggle their magic fingers one last time and say, "Alakazam." Will you help me out? Thank you. 1, 2, 3, Alakazam! (surprised) You're not going to believe this, everyone. Take a look what you did. (pulls the pink hanky out of the box) It's the pink magic hanky, back inside the box of mystery. Give yourselves a really big clap. That was great magic, everyone. (wiggles his fingers)

(Foggy clouds transition to Murray, Freya Pike & Ned Pike at a table)

Murray: We're playing a numbers game. I've got Freya and Ned here they're helping there in the game. Now, Ned, can you start off? Can you tell me what number that is?

Freya & Ned: One.

Murray: That's right! You both didn't know that. Can you show me 1 banana, Ned?

(Freya & Ned hold up a banana)

Oh, and Freya you're gonna do it too. That's great!

(Freya laughs)

Murray: One banana. Okay, here's one for Freya. Freya, can you tell me what number this one is?

Freya: Two.

Murray: That's right! Can you show me two apples?

(Freya holds up two apples)

Murray: That's right, hold them up. That's the way. Great work. Now put them back and will try one more. And we've got a number here. What number is that?

Freya & Ned: Three.

Murray: Three, that's right, they knew it that one. Now, let's see, I think it's Ned's turn. Ned, can you show me three bananas?

(Freya holds up an apple & Ned holds up three bananas)

Freya: Three, but I got one.

Murray: You've got one, too. That's great.

Freya: I've got an apple.

Murray: That's great.

Freya: And I've got one.

Murray: Yeah, well, were gonna sing a song now all about the numbers, one, two and three.

Anthony: We're making some fruit salad. Everybody's helping. Murray, what are you up to?

Murray: Anthony, I've got some grapes to put in the fruit salad bowl.

Anthony: And Paul the Cook?

Paul the Cook: Well, I'm mixing up all the fruit in this bowl.

Anthony: Greg?

Anthony: And Jeff, what are you doing over there?

Jeff: (He peels a banana.) I've peeled a banana!

Wiggles: (to viewers while giving a thumbs up.) Beauty mate!

Anthony: Well, you might like to make your own fruit salad at home. Just make sure you use a plastic knife and you might like to have a grown-up around to help you, as well.
