Miss Hoolie opens the nursery school, greets the nursery children, and talks about that day's weather. On a "play day" she visits Pocket & Sweet, the shop-and-cafe. </p><p>Miss Hoolie breaks the fourth wall and addresses the audience directly down the camera lens in every episode. A creative aspect of the programme involves the characters often being "one step behind" the audience when it comes to problem solving. This allows for young inquisitive viewers to figure out "what the story is" in Balamory based on their own individual interpretations. </p><p><br /> One of the other characters (who will be the main character of that episode) tells Miss Hoolie about a problem. This character then sings "Which Coloured House Are We Going To?", asking the young viewers to guess which of the <i>Balamory</i> characters will be most helpful in solving the problem. The main character then proceeds to visit several other characters until the problem is solved. Miss Hoolie and the main character provide a summary of the story at each point, and a final recap at the end of the episode. </p><p>For example, in one episode Josie Jump has been asked to look after a neighbour's rabbit, but does not know what it needs. She is advised to visit PC Plum, who advises her to feed it vegetables. She then goes to the shop run by Pocket and Sweet to buy rabbit food, and finally brings the rabbit to Miss Hoolie's nursery for the children to feed and pat it. </p><p>Each episode of <i>Balamory</i> contains at least five songs: </p> <ul><li>"What's the Story in Balamory?", the theme song</li> <li>Miss Hoolie's opening song, either "Everybody, Everyone" if the nursery school is open, or one of the two "play day" songs otherwise</li> <li>"Which Coloured House Are We Going To?", sung by the main character after presenting his or her problem</li> <li>Character-specific songs, sung by the characters visited by the main character</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Episode_guide">Episode guide</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Balamory&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Episode guide"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Balamory_series_1" title="Balamory series 1">Series One</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Balamory_series_2" title="Balamory series 2">Series Two</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Balamory_series_3" title="Balamory series 3">Series Three</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Balamory_series_4" title="Balamory series 4">Series Four</a></li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Audience">Audience</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Balamory&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Audience"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The programme was aimed at preschoolers although often reached an older audience.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The show can also be seen in a humorous light.
