Plot
The video intro is the theme of TV Series 2. The difference is instead of The Wiggles appearing in front of Wigglehouse, they're in space floating in front of the Wiggly, Wiggly, World with the video title.


 * Song 1: In The Wiggles' World

The Wiggles introduce themselves and ask if they want to meet their friends Captain Feathersword, Dorothy, Wags, and Henry.


 * Song 2: Here Come the Wiggles

Driving in the Big Red Car, Greg sits in the yellow seat and watches the road. Anthony sits in the blue seats and likes to eat crackers. Jeff sits in the purple seat and will try to stay awake if you can help him. Murray asks can you guess what seat he sits in? That's right, the red one, and he likes to play his guitar. So why don't we go for a ride in the Big Red Car.


 * Song 3: In the Big Red Car We Like to Ride

Greg introduces Slim Dusty in the next song.


 * Song 4 - I Love to Have a Dance with Dorothy - featuring Slim Dusty.

The Wiggles and Mascots dance in a barn while Slim Dusty plays guitar from the rafters. Murray introduces Christine Anu who talks about the Taba Naba song which comes from the Eastern Torres Strait and is sung in the Meriam Mir language. Taba Naba translates to "Let's go to the reef and have a good time".


 * Song 5: Taba Naba - featuring Christine Anu.

Greg and Christine sit with a bunch of kids to do the dance while the other three Wiggles play guitars. Anthony introduces Rolf Harris. Rolf has a wobble board, which makes a wobbly sound when you shake it. He wrote the next song.


 * Song 6: Tie Me Kangaroo Down Sport – featuring Rolf Harris.

The Wiggles dance around while Rolf uses the wobble board. Greg introduces Kamahl. He and Dorothy will sing together for the first time.


 * Song 7: Sing with Me – featuring Kamahl.

Each of the Wiggles visits Captain Feathersword and shows off a silly wiggly dance. Captain has one too and demonstrates: "Do the dance, do the dance, do the pirate dance!" Let's all do pirate dancing!


 * Song 8:Hey, Hey, Hey, We're all Pirate Dancing

Greg says we have a problem. Captain Feathersword can't stop drinking rosy tea from Dorothy. To show how addicted he is, Captain asks Greg a bunch of questions like: What's letter comes after S? What do you put a golf ball on? What do you eat scones and jam with? The answer of course is Tea!


 * Song 9: Another Cuppa

Murray talks about the time when he once spoke about the stars. Flashback – Murray looks in the sky and wants to serenade them.


 * Song 10: Starry Night

He wishes he could see his favorite constellation the Great Guitar. And then he's able to spot it. Murray marks he always wanted to play with the big stars. Greg introduces Tim Finn, who's from New Zealand. He wrote the next song for the Captain.


 * Song 11: Six Months in a Leaky Boat – featuring Tim Finn.

Murray and Greg make animal sounds and they guess what they are.


 * Song 12: One Little Coyote

The Wiggles and the pirate dancers greet Captain Feathersword. Murray remarks how everyone's there to dance with him. Well, blow me down. Murray blows him down. Captain says he plays that game all the time, so it's time to play it.


 * Song 13: Blow Me Down

Jeff introduces the next song.


 * Song 14:Let's Go! We're Riding in the Big Red Car
