Synopsis
The Queegles are being taught about weather on Planet Earth. Tardy falls asleep sunbathing, and Dr. Xargle startles him with his recording of "blunder and frightening"! Matron gets soaked with a burst raincloud and a downpour of "fat tadpoles"- but the hurricane-force wind machine should dry her off! The spaceship lands at the seaside- where Cute goes looking for her lost blanket, causing chaos with sunbathers on the beach. Matron steals Nigel Spume's ice cream alien detector so that the Queegles have to head for the spaceship quickly. Back on board, the winkles have invaded- along with the sneezes!
