One is the first episode of the first series of Numberblocks, as well as the first episode overall.
A small red block falls from the sky. The block then grows a body. As she wonders who she is, a number 1 jumps on her. She sings and counts 1 of everything. She claims that she is number one!
Plot[]
A little block falls out of the sky, meets her numberling and discovers one wonderful world, singing and counting to one.
This is the first episode with only one Numberblock, the second being "Ten in the Bed".
In the credits of this episode and all other episodes up to "Ten Green Bottles", we see the following things:
The year says "2016" although this episode was aired on January 23rd 2017 - implying Numberblocks began developing the show in 2016.
With that in mind, the beta Numberblocks would have been conceptualized much earlier.
The concept of this episode and "Another One" originated from an old comic, featuring the beta Numberblocks.
Marcel McCalla, Teresa Gallagher and David Holt's names appear on the credits, despite none of them voicing in this episode.
This episode has the most reenactments done. Episodes such as Once Upon A Time retold the story, and ones like Land of the Giants are more like a "what-if?", only this time, with different numbers (such as Tens instead of Ones). This also happens in Twoland, with Twos instead of Ones.
