(soft music plays)

Against a lilac screen, Doctor Cheddar appears in a white circle. He is a mouse puppet wearing a purple shirt and a stethoscope. The logo of the program reads "Doctor Cheddar" next to the tube of a stethoscope creating a heart shape. The word "cheddar" is made of cheese.

A Male Announcer says YOU'LL FEEL BETTER
WITH DR. CHEDDAR.

(children cheering)

In an empty hospital, Doctor Cheddar says HELLO, AGAIN.
DR. CHEDDAR HERE TO TALK TO YOU
ABOUT PHYSICAL DISTANCING.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN,
YOU ASK?

He yells IT MEANS KEEPING AT LEAST
2 METRES AWAY FROM EVERYONE!
(echoing)
CAN YOU HEAR ME?
THIS IS HOW WE'LL STOP
THE SPREAD OF COVID-19,
THE VIRUS THAT'S KEEPING US ALL
CLOSE TO HOME RIGHT NOW.
BE SMART, KEEP APART!
THE PROBLEM IS IT'S MAKING ME
A LITTLE BONKERS.

He screams in different places.

Back in the hospital, he says SO, WHAT DO YOU DO
IN THE HOUSE ALL DAY
2 METRES AWAY FROM
EVERYONE ELSE?
YOU CAN CALL A FRIEND.

(ringing)
Doctor Cheddar says HEY, GRANDPA.

In off, Grandpa says HELLO?

Doctor Cheddar says ARE YOU IN YOUR UNDERWEAR?

Grandpa says YES.

Doctor Cheddar says KEEP UP A ROUTINE WITH SOME
HOMEWORK OR A GREAT STORY.

Now, he is reading a book.

He gasps and says YOU'LL NEVER GUESS
WHAT JUST HAPPENED.

Then, he says MEDITATION CAN CALM THE MIND.
OM...
MY I'M HUNGRY.
(smacks lips)
I THINK I'LL GET
SOME CHEESE.
AND THERE'S PLENTY TO EXPLORE
ON TVOKIDS.COM

Watching a video on a tablet, he says OH, THOSE KRATTS BROTHERS.

He concludes 'TILL NEXT TIME, I'M DR. CHEDDAR
HOPING YOU FEEL BETTER.
SEE YOU VERY SOON,
RIGHT HERE ON TVOKIDS.
(laughing)
