Pip and Alba borrow Skipper's pans and wooden spoons to play like drums! They come in very handy when they discover a distraught octopus in the rock pool - he's lost his drumsticks. Pip and Alba lend him Skipper's wooden spoons, and in return the famous Rocktopus invites them to his underwater concert. They are joined by Skipper and travel underwater in Professor Evie's submarine.

The Puffins are very agitated because a flock of terns have taken over their rock. Skipper takes Pip, Alba, Hopper and Pasty out to Puffin Rock to find a solution. The answer is to lure the terns to another rock! But how? Eventually Hopper is persuaded to act as a decoy - he flies higher than usual and distract the terns who follow him to a new rock. And the new rock proves just the job, so Puffin Rock becomes Puffin territory again and the new rock becomes Tern Rock.

Pip and friends are playing in the playground, with young Alan enjoying the see saw so much he won't try anything else! When the gull's drop something heavy on the opposite end of the sea saw Alan is catapulted out of the playground and into a spectacular adventure involving trains, hammocks and a trip to sea! He's a hard penguin to track down! Pip leads the rescue mission! Why is it always Alan?!

Looking out from the Lighthouse, Pip and Skipper are alarmed to see Morris Maurice is having difficulty with his train - it won't steer properly and ends up half in and half out of the sea. With passengers stranded on board the train Pip has to think quickly about first how to get the train out of the sea, and second how to correct its steering problem! The first problem is solved by a tug from Mrs Twitcher's taxi, the second by the efforts of a low slung and sharp eyed Pasty. Who'd have thought the trouble was caused by a burst balloon!

Shelvis is a collector, and when his collection outgrows his shell home Pip and Alba try to find him a new one! The best big shells all seem to be occupied, so Pip and Alba build him a sand castle. Fickle crab that he is, Shelvis decides he prefers his own small shell to the roomy castle, and instead of finding a new home for his junk organises a beach sale instead! He clears his decks and ends up with something he has always wanted!

Pasty finds Mr Otley the cuddly toy rabbit and makes him his new best friend, before Mr Otley accidentally flies away on a balloon. On the way to collect a cake for Skipper, Pip and Alba help to search for him but his true owner might want him back.

It is a great day for hanging out the washing, but everyone is noticing socks going missing from their washing lines. With the Sprouts' variety show at the Village Hall fast approaching, Pip and Alba try to discover the identity of the sock thief.

A terrible smell has invaded Salty Cove, and it is not Hopper, or Skipper's roses. Professor Evie clears an island of stinky seaweed, and Pip and Alba organise bath-time for smelly puffins, but they all fly away before they can be taken home.

Inspired by a picture book, Pip and his friends build something to cheer up Mrs Finn, and earn their `Make and Do' Sprout badges. However, Pasty and Hopper are convinced that what they've seen marching around town is real, and out to get them.

When Skipper, Pip and Alba are called away to clear some litter blowing around on the beach, Pasty and Hopper decide to help bake the cake they were making. But when neither of them know the recipe, they start to improvise.

Mr Morris is building a treehouse for the Sprouts, but when Alan gets himself stuck Mrs Twitcher has to call the Rescue Ranger. Alan might have to wait until he is thinner to get out, and the cakes might not be safe with the new Assistant Ranger.
