Behind the Scenes
This video was filmed during The Wiggles' concert tour. This tour helped promote their Toot Toot! album and its matching video. The video uses a special version of the song "Toot Toot, Chugga Chugga, Big Red Car" to start and end the show. It begins with The Wiggles in "Wiggles World," then switches to the live concert, and finally returns to "Wiggles World" for the ending credits.
The video actually combines scenes from several different concerts. This is why you might see The Wiggles and their friends in slightly different spots between scene changes. Not all the concert footage made it into the final video. For example, some scenes with Dorothy the Dinosaur were cut but later appeared in their TV show. The "Wiggly Christmas Medley" from this show was also added to some TV episodes and to the 1999 version of Wiggly, Wiggly, Christmas.
The Wiggles often include their family and friends in their videos. In one funny part where Captain Feathersword talks at different speeds, you can see Tony Henry, a drummer from the band The Cockroaches, in the audience with his family. The Wiggles also thanked their sponsor, OzEmail Internet, at the beginning and end of the video.
