0:00:02 > 0:00:03# Let's play
0:00:03 > 0:00:05# Let's play
0:00:06 > 0:00:10# Let's have an adventure, hooray
0:00:10 > 0:00:11# Let's play!
0:00:11 > 0:00:14# Who could we be today?
0:00:14 > 0:00:16# What could we do?
0:00:16 > 0:00:18# I'd like to drive a racing car
0:00:18 > 0:00:21# Fly to the moon
0:00:21 > 0:00:23# I could be a firefighter
0:00:23 > 0:00:25# A farmer or a vet
0:00:25 > 0:00:27# A knight in shining armour
0:00:27 > 0:00:29# Or I could be a chef
0:00:29 > 0:00:31# Let's play
0:00:32 > 0:00:33# Let's play
0:00:34 > 0:00:37# Let's have an adventure today. #
0:00:39 > 0:00:40Let's play!
0:00:47 > 0:00:48Sid?
0:00:48 > 0:00:50Goal! Yes, I scored!
0:00:50 > 0:00:54Oh, really great, but Sid, have you seen the bath plug?
0:00:54 > 0:00:56The bath plug? You mean this?
0:00:56 > 0:00:58Yes. What were you doing with it?
0:00:58 > 0:01:00Playing ice hockey, of course!
0:01:00 > 0:01:01Can I have it, please?
0:01:01 > 0:01:03Yeah, of course, but why?
0:01:03 > 0:01:06To stop the water running out of the bath.
0:01:06 > 0:01:08What am I going to use as my puck?
0:01:08 > 0:01:10Puck? What's a puck?
0:01:10 > 0:01:13Ice hockey players use a stick and a puck to play with,
0:01:13 > 0:01:17so without a puck, it's like football without a ball,
0:01:17 > 0:01:20- or a flip without a flop. - Or a bath without a plug.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22Maybe I could use the soap instead.
0:01:22 > 0:01:25Oh, yes. Actually, no. I'll need that, too.
0:01:25 > 0:01:28This is serious. How can I be an ice hockey champ
0:01:28 > 0:01:30if I can't practise with a puck?
0:01:30 > 0:01:33How will I get clean if I don't have a bath?
0:01:33 > 0:01:37- Don't worry, we'll think of something.- But what?
0:01:37 > 0:01:38JINGLE!
0:01:38 > 0:01:41- Hold on, Sid, it's time! - Great!
0:01:46 > 0:01:47It's time to play!
0:01:47 > 0:01:49Whose turn is it today?
0:01:49 > 0:01:51Let it be me!
0:01:51 > 0:01:52Let it be me!
0:01:52 > 0:01:55- Me!- Me!
0:01:55 > 0:01:56# Let it be me
0:01:56 > 0:01:58# Let it be me
0:01:58 > 0:02:00# Let it be me
0:02:00 > 0:02:02# Will it be me?
0:02:02 > 0:02:04# Let it be me
0:02:04 > 0:02:05# Let it be me
0:02:05 > 0:02:09# I really, really, really, Really hope that it's me
0:02:09 > 0:02:11- # Let,- let,- let,- let
0:02:11 > 0:02:13# Let, let it be me!
0:02:13 > 0:02:15# Let it be me
0:02:15 > 0:02:16# Let it be me
0:02:16 > 0:02:21# I really, really, really, Really hope that it's me! #
0:02:21 > 0:02:23- Could it be me? - Could it be me?
0:02:24 > 0:02:26It's me!
0:02:26 > 0:02:28# Yes, it's me
0:02:28 > 0:02:30# Yes, it's me
0:02:30 > 0:02:33# I'm really, really, really, Really happy! #
0:02:33 > 0:02:35It's me!
0:02:35 > 0:02:37Look, there's the dressing up room.
0:02:41 > 0:02:43So what are we going to play?
0:02:43 > 0:02:45Let's find out.
0:02:50 > 0:02:55So, a hula outfit, a sea captain's hat, and animal feet?
0:02:55 > 0:02:57I don't think so. Let's try again.
0:03:02 > 0:03:05Well, this time I've got on a big, heavy coat,
0:03:05 > 0:03:08a funny-looking hat and a pair of boots.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10I look like some old-fashioned sailor,
0:03:10 > 0:03:13but what do you think we're playing today?
0:03:13 > 0:03:17I know, we're playing sea captains from the olden days,
0:03:17 > 0:03:19so what do we need to know?
0:03:21 > 0:03:25First of all, Rebecca, sea captains in the olden days used special
0:03:25 > 0:03:30instruments called sextants to find out where they were in the sea.
0:03:30 > 0:03:34Sea captains used the wind to power their ships.
0:03:34 > 0:03:37They could change direction by adjusting the sails
0:03:37 > 0:03:41and turning the big steering wheel called the helm.
0:03:41 > 0:03:46And lastly, Rebecca, sea captains sometimes got their crews to
0:03:46 > 0:03:48sing special songs called shanties...
0:03:48 > 0:03:50# We sailors on the sea. #
0:03:50 > 0:03:54..so they all worked to the same rhythm.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56OK, so that's what we need to remember,
0:03:56 > 0:03:58do we need anything else?
0:04:00 > 0:04:02Hmmm.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04What's this?
0:04:06 > 0:04:08A piece of paper with lines on it?
0:04:08 > 0:04:13Well, I haven't got a clue what this is, but I guess it'll come in handy.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16OK, we've got everything we need. Let's go.
0:04:18 > 0:04:19Hey, Sid.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22Can you guess what we're playing today?
0:04:22 > 0:04:26Arrr! Are you playing pirates, by any chance? Arrr!
0:04:26 > 0:04:27No, way better than that.
0:04:27 > 0:04:31We're playing sea captains from the olden days!
0:04:31 > 0:04:34- Wow! Does that mean you sail your own ship?- I hope so.
0:04:34 > 0:04:38Lucky! While you're gone, I'm going to practise my ice hockey.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40Not with my sponge!
0:04:40 > 0:04:43Really? I guess I'll have to find something else.
0:04:43 > 0:04:47- Good luck, Captain Rebecca! - Thanks very much. See you!
0:04:47 > 0:04:48Bye!
0:04:49 > 0:04:51Come on, let's play sea captains!
0:04:54 > 0:04:56Whoa!
0:04:59 > 0:05:00Woo!
0:05:03 > 0:05:05So, where are we?
0:05:06 > 0:05:08Oh, it looks like a harbour.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11A very old one.
0:05:11 > 0:05:14Arrr, you look like a captain!
0:05:14 > 0:05:16Well, hello there, lovely to meet you!
0:05:16 > 0:05:18I'm Rebecca.
0:05:18 > 0:05:22Er, I mean, er, yes, I am a proper sea captain.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25Captain Rebecca, at your service! Arrr!
0:05:27 > 0:05:31You must be the new captain of the Neptune, Captain Rebecca!
0:05:31 > 0:05:33Oh, I suppose I must. What is the Neptune?
0:05:33 > 0:05:35The Neptune, captain?
0:05:35 > 0:05:38Only the finest ship to set sail across the ocean!
0:05:38 > 0:05:43It only leaks on a Thursday, and you're in luck, because it's Friday.
0:05:43 > 0:05:44It's over there!
0:05:44 > 0:05:48Oh, that is beautiful! Is that my ship?
0:05:48 > 0:05:51Yes, indeed. You are its captain.
0:05:51 > 0:05:54The ship Neptune shall set sail after all!
0:05:54 > 0:05:57Hey, boys! We've got a new captain!
0:05:57 > 0:05:59Hurrah!
0:05:59 > 0:06:02Oh, great! So what happened to the old captain, then?
0:06:02 > 0:06:06Oh, he decided not to come, but that's a long story,
0:06:06 > 0:06:09and we've got so little time. It's time for us to go.
0:06:09 > 0:06:13My name is Richard Moby. I'm the ship's bosun, but call me Dick.
0:06:13 > 0:06:15Oh, OK, Dick.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17What does a bosun do, exactly?
0:06:17 > 0:06:20Well, he takes care of the sails, of course!
0:06:20 > 0:06:24We've got to haul all the fish across the ocean to the port of
0:06:24 > 0:06:28- Old Bigtown, and we need to do it really fast!- What's the rush?
0:06:28 > 0:06:31- Have you ever smelt fish that's gone off?- No.
0:06:31 > 0:06:34Well, it's the worst smell in the world. Only worse!
0:06:34 > 0:06:39Oh, well, let's not hang around. Let's climb aboard! Arrr!
0:06:39 > 0:06:40Right!
0:06:44 > 0:06:48Phwoar! They really do stink! Thanks a lot, Dick!
0:06:55 > 0:06:59Welcome aboard the Neptune, captain! Shall I give you a quick tour?
0:06:59 > 0:07:03- Port or starboard?- Porter what, sorry? What does that mean?
0:07:03 > 0:07:08Port is left, starboard is right! Everyone knows that, captain!
0:07:08 > 0:07:12Of course they do! Just testing you, young Dick!
0:07:12 > 0:07:15There's the lookout up there in the crow's nest.
0:07:15 > 0:07:18- Hello, up there!- Arrr! - Have you laid any eggs yet?
0:07:20 > 0:07:23Eggs, you know, in a nest?
0:07:23 > 0:07:24It's a joke. Never mind.
0:07:24 > 0:07:29Right. Well, I think that's everyone on board, captain. Oh, hold on.
0:07:29 > 0:07:32- Where's Chester?- Chester? - The ship's cat.
0:07:32 > 0:07:35We can't set sail without him. Chester? Chester!
0:07:35 > 0:07:37MEOW!
0:07:37 > 0:07:42Ah, there he is! Good boy, Chester! Chester! Leave that fish alone!
0:07:42 > 0:07:45Oh, captain, that fish is beginning to pong!
0:07:45 > 0:07:49Yes, it smells well and truly off. At least it can't get any worse.
0:07:49 > 0:07:53You're right. Well, that's everyone, captain.
0:07:53 > 0:07:56OK, then. So, which way are we headed, young Dick?
0:07:56 > 0:07:59Right, we need to drop the fish off at Old Bigtown.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02I'll show you on the chart. I've got...
0:08:02 > 0:08:04Oh, I haven't actually got a chart!
0:08:04 > 0:08:07Right. What does this chart look like?
0:08:07 > 0:08:10Like a long, rolled up scroll of paper!
0:08:10 > 0:08:11Hmmm.
0:08:11 > 0:08:14Oh, maybe he means this!
0:08:14 > 0:08:16Does it look anything like this?
0:08:16 > 0:08:19Oh, that would be it! Good work, captain!
0:08:23 > 0:08:25So, what does the red rectangle mean?
0:08:25 > 0:08:29Oh, that, captain, is the Barracuda Rectangle!
0:08:34 > 0:08:36So what is that, then?
0:08:36 > 0:08:40'Tis a place, they say, full of sea monsters, bigger than houses!
0:08:40 > 0:08:43Some say they even chase after ships!
0:08:43 > 0:08:47You have to be bonkers to go through there!
0:08:47 > 0:08:49As mad as a box of cannonballs!
0:08:49 > 0:08:52- And that's exactly the way we're going!- What?!
0:08:52 > 0:08:55No wonder the other captain didn't come!
0:08:55 > 0:08:58It's time to set sail. Take the helm.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00- Pardon?- The helm! The steering wheel.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03Oh, right, yeah. Of course!
0:09:03 > 0:09:05Here we go, then.
0:09:05 > 0:09:06Weigh anchor!
0:09:06 > 0:09:08Weigh anchor!
0:09:19 > 0:09:22# Fiddly-diddly-dee
0:09:22 > 0:09:24# Rebecca went to sea. #
0:09:24 > 0:09:28I've been down below, captain, it's not looking good.
0:09:28 > 0:09:29Why, what's wrong?
0:09:29 > 0:09:33- You know you said the fish couldn't smell any worse?- Yes.
0:09:33 > 0:09:34- They do.- Oh.
0:09:34 > 0:09:38We need to get to Bigtown soon. Are we going the right way?
0:09:38 > 0:09:39Yes, bosun.
0:09:39 > 0:09:43We're heading towards the horizon. Old Bigtown should be over there.
0:09:43 > 0:09:46- Steady as she goes. - Are you sure?
0:09:46 > 0:09:50As sure as a captain on her first day at sea with no experience can be.
0:09:50 > 0:09:52Oh, that's not good.
0:09:52 > 0:09:56Hmmm. I guess I'd better check where we're going.
0:09:56 > 0:10:00But I have no idea where we are! It all looks the same to me.
0:10:00 > 0:10:02How can I tell which way to go?
0:10:04 > 0:10:05Oh, I remember, do you?
0:10:05 > 0:10:09Sea captains in the olden days use a special instrument called
0:10:09 > 0:10:12a sextant to find out where they were in the sea!
0:10:12 > 0:10:15Bosun, a sextant, please!
0:10:15 > 0:10:18There you are, captain! And you'll need a compass.
0:10:18 > 0:10:20Thanks very much.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23OK, so...
0:10:23 > 0:10:28If we look through here, line it up with the horizon, find the sun...
0:10:30 > 0:10:32Ah!
0:10:32 > 0:10:34So that means we are here.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38Now, check the compass.
0:10:38 > 0:10:43That means we're heading in this direction!
0:10:43 > 0:10:48Oh, no! That means we're heading towards the Barracuda Rectangle!
0:10:55 > 0:10:57Phew!
0:10:57 > 0:11:00I feel like I've been at sea for weeks and weeks.
0:11:00 > 0:11:01Lunchtime, captain!
0:11:01 > 0:11:05- Have you enjoyed your first morning at sea?- I have, bosun.
0:11:05 > 0:11:08So, what's on the menu? Please say it isn't fish!
0:11:08 > 0:11:12Ha-ha! No, ma'am. Chef's special.
0:11:12 > 0:11:14Is that someone's shoe?
0:11:14 > 0:11:15No, it's yummy salt beef!
0:11:15 > 0:11:19Hmmm. Do you have anything else on board to eat, please?
0:11:19 > 0:11:22We've got some biscuits, captain.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24I love biscuits!
0:11:24 > 0:11:26Once I start, I can't stop!
0:11:26 > 0:11:29Help yourself.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31Oh, yum, biscuits!
0:11:31 > 0:11:36I've had those for 15 years. It's amazing how long they stay fresh.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39As fresh as a pair of pirate's pants!
0:11:39 > 0:11:44- It's all looking good out there, now, captain.- Good, good.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46Sea monster ahoy!
0:11:46 > 0:11:47A sea monster?
0:11:47 > 0:11:49That's what I said!
0:11:51 > 0:11:52Let me see.
0:11:56 > 0:11:57There it is!
0:11:57 > 0:12:00It's heading straight towards us!
0:12:00 > 0:12:04Don't worry, boys! Captain Rebecca will keep us safe!
0:12:04 > 0:12:07- Hurrah!- Will I?
0:12:07 > 0:12:09Oh, yes, yes, I will!
0:12:11 > 0:12:15But hold on! The wind is blowing us closer towards the sea monster!
0:12:15 > 0:12:21We need to change direction, but how do we do that?
0:12:21 > 0:12:24Oh, hold on, I remember, do you?
0:12:24 > 0:12:27Sea captains change direction by adjusting the sails
0:12:27 > 0:12:29and turning the helm.
0:12:29 > 0:12:31That's what we need to do.
0:12:31 > 0:12:34- Move the sails, bosun! - Aye-aye, captain!
0:12:34 > 0:12:37Now let's turn this wheel as hard as we can.
0:12:37 > 0:12:40We need to change direction, and fast!
0:12:41 > 0:12:44Yes, that should do it!
0:12:46 > 0:12:49We've done it! We're moving away from it!
0:12:49 > 0:12:51Hold on, though!
0:12:51 > 0:12:55Now it's coming after us! It's coming this way!
0:12:55 > 0:12:57Sea monster still ahoy!
0:12:57 > 0:12:59What are we going to do, captain?
0:12:59 > 0:13:02I can't make the Neptune go any faster.
0:13:02 > 0:13:05It's closing, captain, and fast!
0:13:05 > 0:13:08Hang on a minute. That's no sea monster.
0:13:09 > 0:13:11It's a whale!
0:13:11 > 0:13:12A what?
0:13:12 > 0:13:18A whale. You know, big mammal, swims in the sea, blows out its spout.
0:13:18 > 0:13:21A whale! Don't worry, they're really, really friendly.
0:13:21 > 0:13:24Well, captain, I do believe you've solved
0:13:24 > 0:13:27the mystery of the Barracuda Rectangle!
0:13:27 > 0:13:32It's all right, boys! It's not a sea monster. It's a whale!
0:13:32 > 0:13:33Hurrah!
0:13:33 > 0:13:37Now, let's get this fish to the port of Old Bigtown
0:13:37 > 0:13:38before it gets any older.
0:13:38 > 0:13:42Oh, the fish. There's good news and bad news, captain.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45- The good news?- Half the fish doesn't smell.
0:13:45 > 0:13:49- Why?- That's the bad news, captain. The cat's eaten it!
0:13:49 > 0:13:53Chester! You're going to have a very bad tummy ache later!
0:13:53 > 0:13:57Land ahoy! It's Old Bigtown, captain!
0:13:57 > 0:14:00Oh, brilliant! Well done, crew. Good work.
0:14:02 > 0:14:05Hang on a minute. We've stopped moving.
0:14:05 > 0:14:09Squirming starfish! The wind's out of my sails.
0:14:09 > 0:14:12If there's no wind in the sails, we won't move anywhere.
0:14:12 > 0:14:16Yes, ma'am, and we've got to get that fish to dry land.
0:14:16 > 0:14:19There's only one thing for it. Into the rowing boat!
0:14:21 > 0:14:24- Right, I think we're all aboard. - Aye, ma'am.
0:14:24 > 0:14:28- Did you pack the fish? - Yes, ma'am. It's by my feet.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31Phwoar, so it is! Where's Chester?
0:14:31 > 0:14:33He's leaning over the side.
0:14:33 > 0:14:37I think he's regretting having that large, fishy lunch.
0:14:37 > 0:14:40Oh, dear. OK. Are we ready, crew?
0:14:40 > 0:14:41- ALL:- Yes, ma'am.
0:14:41 > 0:14:44Let's row this boat to harbour!
0:14:44 > 0:14:45Yes, captain!
0:14:45 > 0:14:47Here we go!
0:14:48 > 0:14:49Let's go!
0:14:51 > 0:14:53There we go. Good work.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56- Hold on, captain. - What?
0:14:56 > 0:14:59- This isn't going well. - Isn't it? Why?
0:14:59 > 0:15:02- We aren't actually moving. - Aren't we?
0:15:02 > 0:15:05Oh, no, so we aren't.
0:15:05 > 0:15:07OK, leave this to me.
0:15:07 > 0:15:09Excuse me, crew?
0:15:09 > 0:15:10Yes, captain?
0:15:10 > 0:15:15If we're going to get to harbour, we'll have to work as a team.
0:15:15 > 0:15:17Is that understood?
0:15:17 > 0:15:19Yes, captain!
0:15:19 > 0:15:24OK, then. Here we go. Altogether now, and row!
0:15:24 > 0:15:26Row!
0:15:26 > 0:15:27And row!
0:15:27 > 0:15:32Hang on. Hold on. Stop, stop, stop!
0:15:32 > 0:15:36It's still not working. We're still not rowing together.
0:15:36 > 0:15:38So we're still not going anywhere.
0:15:38 > 0:15:43We're doing our best, captain, but we can't row at the same time.
0:15:43 > 0:15:45Oh, no. We'll never get to Old Bigtown
0:15:45 > 0:15:49unless we can all row together! But how can we do that?
0:15:50 > 0:15:52Oh, I remember, do you?
0:15:52 > 0:15:57Sea captains used to get their crew to sing special songs called
0:15:57 > 0:16:00shanties, so they could all row to the same rhythm.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02That's what we need to do.
0:16:02 > 0:16:03OK, everyone!
0:16:03 > 0:16:08We're going to sing a song so we can row to the same rhythm. Understood?
0:16:08 > 0:16:10Yes, captain!
0:16:10 > 0:16:13Right, then. So what will we sing?
0:16:13 > 0:16:14Erm.
0:16:14 > 0:16:16I know, I've got it!
0:16:16 > 0:16:18OK, people. From the top.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20# We're sailors on the sea
0:16:20 > 0:16:22# We're sailors on the sea
0:16:22 > 0:16:23All together!
0:16:23 > 0:16:25# We're sailors on the sea
0:16:25 > 0:16:27# We're sailors on the sea
0:16:27 > 0:16:29# We're sailors on the sea
0:16:29 > 0:16:31# We're sailors on the sea
0:16:31 > 0:16:33# We're sailors on the sea
0:16:33 > 0:16:35# We're sailors on the sea
0:16:35 > 0:16:37# We're sailors on the sea
0:16:37 > 0:16:40# We're sailors on the sea. #
0:16:40 > 0:16:41That's it!
0:16:41 > 0:16:45We've made it to Old Bigtown! Well done, everyone!
0:16:45 > 0:16:48- Three cheers for the captain. Hip, hip!- Hooray!
0:16:48 > 0:16:50- Hip, hip!- Hooray!
0:16:50 > 0:16:52- Hip, hip!- Hooray!
0:16:52 > 0:16:55Thank you so much, everyone! Good news, bosun.
0:16:55 > 0:17:00- You'll be able to offload that fish now.- That's a relief, ma'am.
0:17:00 > 0:17:04Phew! We would never have made it without remembering everything
0:17:04 > 0:17:06we needed to know.
0:17:06 > 0:17:10Sea captains used sextants to find out where they were in the sea.
0:17:10 > 0:17:15They could change direction by moving the sails and turning the wheel.
0:17:15 > 0:17:19And sometimes they sang special songs called shanties
0:17:19 > 0:17:22so they all worked to the same rhythm.
0:17:22 > 0:17:24# We're sailors on the sea. #
0:17:27 > 0:17:29I think it's time we went home.
0:17:29 > 0:17:35Bye, everyone! It's been great fun sailing the seas with you!
0:17:35 > 0:17:36Bye, captain!
0:17:45 > 0:17:49And we all sang together, and we managed to row all the way into port!
0:17:49 > 0:17:53When we arrived, even Chester the cat looked pleased!
0:17:53 > 0:17:54That sounds great fun!
0:17:54 > 0:17:59It was, but I'm going to need a relaxing bath after that adventure.
0:17:59 > 0:18:03Oh, hold on, what have you been using as a puck?
0:18:03 > 0:18:06This duck is really good at sliding around.
0:18:06 > 0:18:08I'll need that for my bath.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10Oh, not again! So what am I going to use?
0:18:10 > 0:18:13Don't worry. I've got just the thing.
0:18:13 > 0:18:15- It's perfect!- What's this?
0:18:15 > 0:18:16It's a ship's biscuit.
0:18:16 > 0:18:20But it's not like any other biscuit you've eaten before.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23Right shape, right size.
0:18:23 > 0:18:26- Rock hard. It's perfect!- Great!
0:18:26 > 0:18:30Playing sea captains was great fun. What do you like to play?
0:18:34 > 0:18:36I like to play doctors.
0:18:36 > 0:18:39I use my stethoscope like this.
0:18:39 > 0:18:43I love playing athletes. I always win gold.
0:18:46 > 0:18:52I like to play clowns, and pull silly faces like this.
0:18:59 > 0:19:03It's fun to play. Start playing today!
0:19:03 > 0:19:05Go to...
0:19:08 > 0:19:10See you soon!
