Anthony Field played Captain Feathersword in the video. Emma Buter provided the voice for Dorothy the Dinosaur during the Short Story skit, and is credited on the companion album. In some of the skits, Murray Cook provided Dorothy's voice as he was the original voice for Dorothy. Jeff Fatt has provided the voice for Henry the Octopus, although he was not credited for the role until later in The Wiggles career as shown on several Wiggles documentaries.

1998 re-recording

The video was remade and released in 1998 after the theatrical release of The Wiggles Movie and the video release of Wiggly, Wiggly Christmas. Some of the skits such as the short story for Dorothy's Birthday Party were removed. Two new songs, "Pufferbillies" and "Havenu Shalom Alechem", were added. In the North American version, "Teddy Bear Hug" and "Numbers Rhumba" were replaced by videos featuring the Wiggle Puppets. The Wiggles use logos on their shirts. Anthony wears a blue shirt instead of a green or white one. Paul Paddick plays Captain Feathersword. Wags the Dog was also featured in the video. Paul Hester, a former drummer for Split Enz and Crowded House, guest starred as Paul the Cook, and was featured in "Fruit Salad".
