Transcript: Dr. Cheddar: How to Stay Cool at the Pool
(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)
Inside an empty hospital waiting room, Doctor Cheddar wears sunglasses and a surfing t-shirt.
He says HELLO, AGAIN. DR. CHEDDAR HER TO HELP YOU FEEL BETTER. I AM GOING TO GO CHANGE INTO MY DOCTOR'S CLOTHES, NOW, INSTEAD OF MY POOL GEAR.
He walks out of sight.
(CHUCKLES) (HONKING AND BEEPING)
He returns wearing a blue lab coat, a stethoscope and the same sunglasses.
He says THAT'S BETTER. (SIGHS) FORGOT MY GLASSES. (CHUCKLES)
He gets rid of the glasses, then says AS YOU KNOW, COVID-19, OR THE CORONAVIRUS IS A PESKY VIRUS WE'D ALL LIKE TO KEEP AWAY FROM. YOU'VE PROBABLY BEEN PRACTICING PHYSICAL DISTANCING AND MASK WEARING WHEN IN PUBLIC TO HELP BEAT THE VIRUS. AND GOOD FOR YOU! BUT I'M SURE A LOT OF YOU ARE ALSO WONDERING, "WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN AT THE LOCAL PUBLIC POOL THIS YEAR BECAUSE OF COVID-19?" WELL, I HAVE GREAT NEWS FOR YOU. (CHUCKLES) POOLS AND SPLASH PADS IN THE ONTARIO REGION ARE OPEN AS PART OF STAGE THREE. HA-HA! (CHEERING) OH. OH, MY. WHO'S GOING TO CLEAN THAT UP? ME... (GROANING) BUT WE NEED TO BE CAREFUL, NOW MORE THAN EVER. WE ALL WANT TO GO TO THE POOL TO COOL OFF, SO IT'S A GOOD IDEA TO KEEP THESE RULES IN MIND. FIRST OFF, YOU SHOULD NEVER WEAR YOUR MASK IN THE WATER, BUT PHYSICAL DISTANCING IS STILL THE WAY TO GO AT YOUR LOCAL POOL. ADULTS WILL MAKE SURE THAT THERE'S ENOUGH SPACE FOR EVERYONE TO HAVE ROOM AROUND THEM. SO YOU'LL BE ABLE TO JUMP INTO THE WATER AND SPLASH AND SWIM AND COOL DOWN WITH YOUR FAMILY. OH, ANOTHER PRO TIP: I ALWAYS WEAR MY SWIMMING TRUNKS TO THE POOL SO I'M READY TO JUMP IN AS SOON AS IT'S MY TURN.
(CHUCKLES)
As he speaks, pictures showing happy children swimming in pools flash by.
He says ONE OTHER IMPORTANT THING YOU SHOULD TRY TO DO BEFORE YOU LEAVE. TRY TO USE YOUR BATHROOM AT HOME BEFORE HEADING FOR THE PUBLIC POOL.
Inside a house, a girl pig wearing a beach hat and a floatie walks towards the front door.
Dr. Cheddar continues PHYSICAL DISTANCING IN A PUBLIC BATHROOM IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE.
The girl rushes into a bathroom.
Dr. Cheddar continues AND WHILE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT BATHROOMS, THERE'S ONE OTHER THING YOU SHOULDN'T FORGET.
Short clips flash by.
A boy with short-cropped black hair says WASH YOUR HANDS.
A boy with straight black hair says WASH YOUR HANDS.
A girl with long brown hair in pigtails says WASH YOUR HANDS.
The pig girl says WASH YOUR HANDS.
(HUMMING)
She turns off the bathroom light and heads outside wearing the floatie.
She says OH!
Back inside the hospital waiting room, Dr. Cheddar says SO REMEMBER TO HAVE FUN AT THE POOL AND KEEP TWO METRES APART FROM OTHERS WHO ARE NOT IN YOUR FAMILY. ALWAYS LISTEN TO THE LIFEGUARDS AT THE POOL. WASH YOUR HANDS AND USE HAND SANITIZER OFTEN. OH! AND ONE LAST THING, TRY NOT TO GET SOAKED BECAUSE I'M GOING TO DO A... (CHUCKLING) ...CANNON BALL!
(SPLASHING, GIGGLING)
Water splashes onto the screen.
