Look at this...mess everywhere.

-Hello?

-Eh? Sid?

What are you doing?

I'm tidying up your mess. You really should...

No, wear the pink spotty ones! Ha, ha, ha!

He's on the phone! I thought he was talking to me.

All right, I'll see you then. Bye!

-I've been picked for the football team!

-Great!

Now, where are my boots?

-Where did you last see them?

-On my feet.

Well, they're not there now.

Hold on, Sid, it's time...

-BOTH:

-Great!

-It's time to play!

-Whose turn is it today?

-Let it be me!

-Let it be me!

-Me!

-Me!

-Me!

Let it be me!

-Let-let-let it be me.

-Me!

Let it be me!

Let it be me.

-BOTH:

-# Let it be me Let it be me

# I really, really, really, really hope that it's me

# Let, let, let, let, let, let-let-let it be me!

# Let it be me Let it be me

# I really, really, really, really hope that it's me. #

Could it be me?

Could it be me?

It's me!

# Yes, it's me Yes, it's me

# I'm really, really, really, really happy! #

It's me!

Look, there's the dressing-up room!

# Let's play! #

This is really exciting!

So what do you think we're playing today?

I've got on a snorkel, a mask, a postie's uniform

and some chicken feet.

Cluck, cluck, cluck!

No, I don't think so. Let's try again.

So, what have we got this time?

Well, we've got a funny-shaped hat, a waistcoat

and a pair of stripy trousers.

So, what are we playing today?

Of course! We're going to be pirates!

Ha-haargh! So, what do we need to know?

'Pirates were sailors who travelled the oceans looking for treasure

'and sometimes stole the ships of other sailors

'Pirates stored their drinking water in barrels

'so they had enough for their journeys.

'They sometimes got a disease called scurvy, which made them feel sick.

'It was cured by eating lots of fresh fruit and vegetables.

'To see if they were getting near land,

'one pirate would climb to the top of the crow's-nest and look out.

'It was the highest point on the ship, at the top of the mast.'

So, that's what we need to know. Do we need anything else?

An oil can. Hmm. I wonder what that's for?

Well, I am sure it will come in handy.

So, we have got everything we need. Let's go.

# Let's play! #

Sloane, flicks the ball up, shoots.

He scores! What a great goal by Sid Sloane!

Hey, Sid. Look! We're going to play pirates today!

-Ha-haargh!

-Brilliant!

I know! I can't wait. I hope we find treasure.

-Have a good game of football.

-I will. I'm ready and raring to go.

-Ping!

-Oh, no.

My shoe lace. It's snapped!

-Oh! Have you got another one?

-No, I haven't.

-I was looking forward to playing today.

-I hope you find one.

-See you later.

-Have a good time.

-Bye.

-Bye!

# Let's play! #

Come on, let's play pirates.

Whoa-whoa-oh!

# Let's play! #

Hey, we're on a ship in the middle of the sea!

I wonder if it's a pirate ship.

Ha, ha, ha!

A yo-ho-ho and a bottle of sugar-free lemonade!

It is!

-Hello.

-I'm Rebecca.

And I be Captain Nasty, the meanest pirate on the seven seas.

Well, you can't be mean to me because I'm here to help you.

Ah! Well, that's great, so you are.

I'm in need of a good shipmate.

My crew are revolting.

I'm sure they're not that bad.

No! I mean they're very unhappy

being as they haven't been paid for a long time.

Why's that?

We've been looking for treasure and we haven't found any.

I can help you with that, Captain Nasty.

Well, shiver me timbers. That's great!

We are going to be the best of shipmates, so we are.

Lovely.

# Let's play. #

-You grab hold of that wheel.

-This one?

-That's right.

I'm going downstairs and have a look at this map.

We need to find treasure, and fast.

Captain, wait. I don't know what I'm...doing.

Looks like I'm steering the ship, then.

Hello, hello.

Oh, hello. Who are you?

-I am Pirate Jim.

-And I am Pirate Jon.

-BOTH:

-We're twins.

We look the same, we dress the same and we always agree on everything.

-I don't.

-Except for him.

Oh. Well, hello. Maybe you can answer a question for me.

-BOTH:

-Gladly!

-Why do pirates talk in that funny way?

-What funny way?

All that "ooh-aargh" stuff.

No! That's not how we really talk. We just put that on for fun.

This is how I normally talk.

I don't put it on. This is my real voice.

-Is it? Oh.

-OK, whatever.

I'm Rebecca and I'm here to help you find treasure.

That be very good. The pirates are all very cross.

It's getting a ugly down there!

-Everyone in a bad mood, are they?

-No, they're just ugly!

-And they're in a bad mood too.

-Oh, dear.

Oh, no. I'm feeling a bit...

What's wrong with him?

That's another thing we're in a bad mood about.

Everyone feels sick and we haven't had a drink.

-And if we don't have a drink, we can't do any work.

-Oh, no.

If we don't get these pirates some water soon, we'll be stuck here.

What are we going to do?

Hold on. I remember, do you?

Pirates used to store their drinking water in barrels

so they had enough for long journeys.

-We need to find your water barrels.

-But we don't have any!

-We need to find some, then.

-Out here in the middle of nowhere?

Surrounded by nothing but ocean?

-Except for that ship I've just seen.

-What ship?

-That one.

Oh, yes! A ship!

Maybe they'll have some water we can have.

I'm going to see the captain.

Captain. Exciting news - I've seen a ship!

-That's right, we're standing in it.

-No, another ship.

It's just over there. It looks deserted.

We need to go on board and see if we can find water for the crew.

Great idea!

Off you go, then.

What, me? But it looks scary and dark.

Why aren't you coming?

I'm Captain Nasty, not Captain Silly!

-Now, go on. Off you go.

-But...but...

-Up the stairs. Keep going.

Thirsty work being a captain!

# Let's play! #

Phew! We're on board.

On board this scary, deserted, abandoned ship.

Rumble, rumble...

What's that noise?

That's snoring.

Sounds like its coming from down below.

Come on.

Zzzz...

I'm sure the snoring is coming from somewhere over here.

-Aaah!

-Aah!

-Who are you?

-I'm Rebecca!

-Oh. Where did you come from?

From our ship. We're parked next door.

Or whatever you say if you're a sailor.

Oh, well. Nice to meet you. I'm Pirate Wilf.

You don't look much like a pirate.

-Where's your hat and your eye patch?

-It's my day off.

-I'd better wake the crew.

-What crew? There's no-one else here.

-What?

Where've they all gone? Let me see.

You're right. There's no-one here.

They must have left while I was asleep.

We were looking for treasure and then...

-the wheel got jammed.

-Oh.

-You're right. It won't move!

-Yeah.

We've been going round and round for weeks.

Going round and round makes you really sleepy.

In fact...goodnight.

Wait! I've come to ask a favour.

Yeah? What's that?

Our crew are very thirsty and we need some barrels of water.

OK. Maybe I can give you some. What's in it for me?

Uh...I'll fix your wheel for you?

-Oh. OK, deal!

-Right!

Eeeeeegh!

No good.

Oh, look. It's rusty.

We need something to loosen this up.

But what could we use?

Hold on. I know what we can use. Do you?

Yes.

The oil!

This should do the trick.

Oh, yes!

Wilf.

-Wilf?

-Starfish and barnacles! Hello? Hello?

-Your wheel, it's fixed!

-Is it?

Brilliant!

So, can we have our barrels of water now, please?

Course you can. Oh, and here, you can have this.

-A telescope?

-You can use it to look for a treasure island.

Oh, brilliant!

And we can set sail again.

BOTH: Hurrah!

# Let's play! #

-Goodbye, Rebecca!

-Bye, Wilf!

So, Rebecca me hearty, what be happening?

What be happening, Captain Nasty,

is the men have opened the barrels of water I found

-and had a nice long drink.

-I know! I've just been below deck.

-They must be happy.

-They're as miserable as a mouse with no cheese!

Why? They got their water.

They haven't been paid. We need to find treasure, and fast.

Will do! Oh, and look what Pirate Wilf gave me.

-A telescope!

-Oh.

-You know what this is?

-Yes.

It be a telescope. Yes, I know.

I can use this to look for land!

Can't see anything at all.

Maybe you should use the other eye?

Oh, yes. Ha, ha, ha...

-I see.

-What do you see?

Nothing at all!

Give that to me. I don't think you're doing it right.

Oh, that's funny. I can't see anything either.

Oh, look. There's something blocking it.

Oooh! What's this?

It looks like...

-A map!

-Great!

This is a treasure map of Pong island!

-It says the treasure is buried next to some rocks!

-Let me see.

-Me!

-Me!

-Me!

OK, OK. Let's calm down.

So, we know where the treasure is.

-I say we set sail and find it!

-Agreed!

# Let's play! #

We're on our way to Pong Island. Shouldn't be long now.

Hold on. We're going round in a circle.

Captain?

Captain?!

Ooooh...

Captain Nasty, what's wrong?

Ugh! I feel all flobbily-wobbily...

-and sick.

-Whoa!

-I think you better go to bed.

-Aye-aye. Not feeling too good.

Oh, no. We're in trouble now.

Pirates Jim and Jon!

-Pirate Jim, at your service.

-I need your help.

Hold on. Why are you wearing two eye patches?

Well, one patch is cool, so I thought two would be twice as cool!

-But you can't see anything.

-Oh, yes.

-I thought it had got dark.

-Right, OK.

Captain Nasty is sick and I need you and Pirate Jon to steer the ship.

Aye-aye, ma'am!

Right, I need to make the captain better.

But how do I know what's wrong with him?

Hold on. I remember, do you? That's it!

Pirates sometimes got a disease called scurvy

which made them feel sick.

It was cured by eating lots of fresh fruit and vegetables.

Captain Nasty is sick with scurvy!

Pirate Jim, we need some fruit - something like oranges.

Oranges, eh?

-What be they?

-They're a fruit. They're round and orange.

-Oh! You mean like juggling balls?

-What juggling balls?

-These.

-Yes!

They're not juggling balls, they're oranges!

You need to tell the men to stop juggling with them and eat them.

Right. I think we're back on course!

# Let's play! #

Ahh!

That's it. I've eaten a whole lot of oranges

-and I feel a whole lot better.

-Good.

You rest up, Captain Nasty.

Pirate Jim and Pirate Jon are steering and navigating.

We'll find that treasure island very soon!

-Very good. Carry on, first shipmate!

-Cap'n!

Good news - the captain is getting better.

Good! But according to this map,

the treasure island should be round here somewhere and we can't see it.

Let me have a look.

Oh, you're right.

-It's nowhere to be seen.

-It should be here.

It might be but the trouble is

I can't see far enough with this telescope.

What are we going to do?

Hold on. I remember, do you?

That's it! To see if they were getting near land,

one pirate would go to the top of the crow's-nest and look out.

It was the highest point on the ship, at the top of the mast.

Pirate Jim and Pirate Jon,

someone needs to go up to the crow's-nest and look out for land.

Right!

Off you go, then.

-What, me?

-Yep.

And don't fall down. You'll break the ship.

Oh, OK.

Wish me luck

-BOTH:

-Luck!

Right, I'm here. The crow's-nest.

So, what can we see?

That's it! Pong Island!

Jim! Jon! I can see land!

Did you hear that?

Yes. What did she say?

I think she said, "Bing, bong, strike up the band!"

Land ahoy!

-Land ahoy?

-I don't think I know that one

Well, we could make it up.

# Land ahoy, tiddley tum

# Scratch my head And tap my tum... #

-What are they doing?

-# Turn around and suck my thumb

# Land ahoy, oh, tiddley tum! #

# Let's play! #

-We've found Pong Island!

-Where?

It's over there!

We need to set sail that way. I'm going to tell the captain.

Captain, exciting news -

we've found Pong Island, where the treasure is!

The treasure? Rich!

We're going to be rich!

I'm excited! Are you excited?

-Yes, I'm excited. Are you excited?

-I'm excited!

# Let's play! #

-We've arrived!

-Let's go ashore.

Oh, what a horrid smell!

They don't call it Pong Island for nothing.

Right. So, the map says the treasure

is buried next to a rock that looks like a face.

-Arr.

-Hmm.

Who put that rock there?

Funny looking rock. It looks like a face.

-Oooh! BOTH:

-The treasure!

You shout the instructions, I'll do the pacing

-OK, ready? Three steps forward.

-Three steps forward.

-One step left.

-One step left.

-One step right.

-One step right.

-Three steps forward.

-Three steps forward.

Oh, hello.

Give me that.

Your holding the map upside-down!

Maybe I should do it instead.

Right, here goes.

Where's she gone?

I don't think we'll find it this way. I think we...

-Found it!

-What?!

-Look!

-A treasure chest!

-Come on, help me pull it out.

-Right!

-BOTH:

-Heave!

It's no good. It's stuck.

I know, I'll hold the handle, you hold me and we'll pull.

-Ready?

-Ready!

-BOTH:

-Heave!

-BOTH:

-Whoa!

Well, so much for your clever plans.

Look - it's open!

What?!

Wow! Treasure!

Ha, ha, ha!

Yo-ho-ho, crew! We found the treasure!

-CREW:

-Hurrah!

Phew! We did it.

But we'd never have done it

without remembering everything we needed to know.

Pirates stored their drinking water in barrels.

They sometimes got a disease called scurvy,

which was cured by eating lots of fresh fruit and vegetables.

And to see if they were getting near land,

one pirate would climb up to the crow's-nest and look out.

Well, Captain Nasty, I think it's time we went home.

Thanks, Pirate Rebecca. Here, go on. Have yourself some treasure.

It's all right. You have it. You deserve it.

Can I keep this map, though?

Course you can!

Thanks, Captain Nasty.

# Let's play! #

-Hey, Sid!

-Oh, hey, Rebecca. How was it?

It was amazing. We found treasure!

Wow!

Aren't you supposed to be playing football?

I couldn't find another lace for my boot.

Ah. I think I have just the thing.

Wow! Thanks, Rebecca. I can play now!

You certainly can!

Playing pirates was great fun. What do you like to play?

# Let's play! #

I sing into my microphone like this when I'm playing pop stars.

# La-la, la-la, la-la, la-la! #

Playing clowns is fun. I get to pull funny faces!

When I play fishermen I catch fish, like this.

-It's fun to play.

-Start playing today.
