Sandcastles Swashbuckle

# A band of naughty pirates Took some jewels from me

# I hid onboard their pirate ship And sailed off out to sea

# But they weren't watching where they went

# And shipwrecked on the sand

# I want to win my treasure back Will you give me a hand?

-ALL:

-# Hey-ho, Swashbucklers, go Take on the pirates, yo-ho-ho!

# Hey-ho, Swashbucklers, go Take on the pirates, go, go, go! #

Will you help me win my treasure back?

-Yeah!

-Shall we make the pirates walk the plank?

-Yeah!

Well, let's hear you, then, my hearties!

# Hey-ho, Swashbucklers, go Take on the pirates, yo-ho-ho!

# Hey-ho, Swashbucklers, go Take on the pirates, go, go, go! #

Swashbuckle cheer!

-AUDIENCE:

-Arrr-harrr!

Done! Ha-ha!

Whoo!

Ahoy, there, my hearties, welcome to Swashbuckle!

Arrr-harrr!

My name's Gem and it's great to have you all aboard the Scarlet Squid.

So are you all ready for a rip-roaring pirate adventure?

Arrr-harrr!

Great, and will you help me to win back my jewels

from those very pesky pirates?

Arrr-harrr!

All right, then. Now, where is Captain Sinker?

-Can you see her anywhere?

-There!

-Oh, there she is!

-Boo!

If you keep booing, I'll make the games even harder

and you won't win ANY jewels!

Cook! Line!

BOTH: Yes, Captain Sinker, sir. I mean ma'am.

Have you collected everything we need,

for the Sandcastle competition?

BOTH: Yes, Captain.

Good, cos if we're going to win the Seven Seas Sandcastle Crown,

we're going to need to have built

the best sandcastle this side of the island!

Wearing the crown, I will be the richest, most beautiful captain

the Seven Seas have ever seen.

Line, what are you doing?

Nothing, Ma'am...

Soon the golden crown will be mine...

oh, ahem, ours.

Hmm, that doesn't sound like teamwork to me, Captain Sinker.

But it's now time to meet MY TEAM and try to win back MY jewels.

So, Squawk, let's meet today's Swashbucklers.

Playing today, we've got Peter.

Yeah!

Peter is seven and loves cars, so he'll be zooming around later.

His Swashbuckle name is Bold Peter.

-Next, it's Fay.

-Yay!

Fay is seven and really likes maths -

especially adding up.

I hope she can count to five,

because that's how many jewels there are.

Her Swashbuckle name is Crow's Nest Fay.

Meet Stephen.

Yay!

Stephen is seven and enjoys riding his bike,

so I hope he has a WHEELY good time today.

His Swashbuckle name is Terrible Stephen.

-Finally, it's Halima.

-Yay!

Halima is seven and loves playing on the swings at the park.

She'll need to swing into action to win back Gem's jewels.

Her Swashbuckle name is Starboard Halima.

Yay!

Ha-ha!

Welcome aboard to my brand-new team of Swashbucklers.

Great to see you all. Thanks for coming aboard

to help me win back my jewels from Captain Sinker,

but I need to make sure that you're all ready

by doing the Swashbuckle Salute. So, let me see all you marching.

Put your hands on our hearts...

Here we go.

-Eye patch...

-Eye patch!

-Pirate hat...

-Pirate hat!

Swashbuckle cheer...

Arrr-harrr!

Oh, yes, I think you're ready.

-So, Squawk, what do we have to do today?

-Squawk!

You daring Swashbucklers need to work as a team

as you take part in different pirate games.

Every time you win a game, Captain Sinker will give you

a jewel for your treasure chest!

Win ALL FIVE jewels

and one of the naughty pirates will walk the plank into the ship's mess!

Arrr-harrr!

And this is our treasure chest,

so when you win back my jewels from naughty Captain Sinker,

we'll put them in here to keep them very safe.

I've got buckets of jewels and you won't win any of them.

The games are far too tricky.

Well, we've got buckets of energy to play the first game.

Squawk, what is it?

The first game is Stepping Stones.

Squawk! The aim of the game is to build the palm tree.

All you have to do is cross the rock pool to collect the pieces

from the other side,

but be careful of Cook and Line

because they'll be trying to block your path.

Yeah!

And here's the picture of the palm tree that you need to build.

There are six pieces, which you'll find over there

at the other side of the stepping stones in those crates.

But look out for naughty Cook and Line,

because Line is flinging fish and Cook is dancing.

How funny. Ha-ha! Now, if you do fall in,

you have to go back to the side you were coming from.

You have as long as it takes for the octopus to reach across

the screen and close the treasure chest, to play the game.

OK, so Peter and Halima, will you go first for me?

-Yeah.

-Brilliant. Are we ready to play?

Arrr-harrr!

Then, Swashbucklers away!

-BELL RINGS

-There we go.

-Off to a flying start.

-Go, go!

Yes, Peter.

-Yes!

-Well done, Peter.

Oh, good steady walking there, Halima.

Oh, Peter is fast. OK, Stephen, off you go.

Oh, he's very fast.

Well done, Peter, that was so fast.

Oh, he's gone in.

All the way back over, Stephen.

That's it. Oh, no, they're both in.

That's it. Start again. Off you go.

-Oh...

-Take your time, that's it.

Watch out for Cook. Well done.

And Fay, off you go, good girl.

Oh, he's in again.

Oh, come on, Stephen. You can do it. That's it. Take your time.

You have to come this way.

-He doesn't want to.

-Stephen, cross the barrel!

A bit wobbly. That's it. Well done.

Oh, keep going.

Oh, no!

Yes, he's fallen in again!

Back again, Stephen, and off you go, Peter.

-Back you go.

-Oh, watch out.

Watch out. Oh-ho-ho!

Nearly had a bit of a Swashbuckle crumble, there in the middle.

We're halfway through our time, now.

Well done. You're so speedy.

OK, Halima, Off you go.

That's it, take it easy, Stephen.

-Whoa!

-Oh, no.

Oh, he keeps falling in.

-Back you go!

-Oh, no, Halima, come back this way!

-Everyone's falling in.

-That's it.

Well done, keep going.

Right, take your time. That's it.

Nice and steady.

Well done, that's it.

Oh, that's it, OK!

Take your time, Stephen.

We've got four pieces over.

These are the last two that we need.

Well done. Let's start building it up.

Fay, can you help?

Take it easy.

-Oh-ho-ho!

-That was a close one.

That's right,

turn it round the other way.

-The last bit of the trunk in, that's it.

-Oh, they're quick.

Doing really well. We've got a bit of time left.

Help each other out. Oh, there's one here that no-one's holding.

-Yes!

-There we go!

Arrr-harrr!

-Oh...

-Well done, Swashbucklers, great work.

Squawk, you've got the bird's eye view - over to you.

What brilliant teamwork.

Peter skimmed across those stepping stones in super-quick time.

Fay pushed Cook's barrel out of the way so she could get past,

and even though Stephen fell in once, twice, three times -

no, four - he brought over the piece of trunk they all needed

and the tree got built before the time ran out.

Congratulations, Gem, you win.

-Yeah!

-Yes!

Brilliant work. Well done, Swashbucklers.

You've won our first jewel.

So, Captain Sinker, you know the rule...

-send down a jewel!

-Send down a jewel!

Oh, well, you'll need more than one jewel to win this competition.

-Yeah!

-Yeah!

All right, here it is. Oh, it's the green one. Brilliant.

There you go, Peter, in the chest, please.

-Yeah!

-Ha-ha!

So, we only need four more of those lovely jewels and then one of the

naughty pirates will have to walk the plank

-into the stinky ship's mess.

-Ugh!

Ugh!

-CHILDREN:

-Ugh!

Are you ready to build my sandcastles?

Yes, we are.

Have you got EVERYTHING?

Yes, we do. Ta-da!

My sandcastle-making kit.

-Very handy.

-Wow!

Don't you think you might have forgotten something really important?

Oh, something to eat... seaweed sandwich?

-A beachball? Swimming trunks?

-Sun cream?

-No, sand! CHILDREN:

-Ha-ha-ha!

Oh, poor Cook and Line, they never get things right.

Come on, Captain, we want to play another game

and win back another jewel. Squawk, what's the next game?

The second game is Bouncy Sails.

Squawk! The aim of this game is to fill all the holes

with the soft toy rats and mice.

All you have to do is bounce on the ship's sails

and pull the ropes to release the rodents.

Then your team-mates have to put them in the correct hole,

but be careful - Cook or Line will be bouncing too

and trying to stop you.

Yay!

And these are the soft toy mice and rats

you need to find to play the game.

The little mice go into the little holes

and the big holes are for the big rats.

OK, now, Stephen and Halima, you're going to be bouncing for me.

Brilliant. The rats and mice will be collected by Peter and Fay,

so let me give you these two here to start you off, OK?

Now, do look out because Cook and Line will be trying to put you off -

Cook especially, spinning around in his octopus costume.

He looks so funny. Are we ready to play?

Arrr-harrr!

Then, Swashbucklers away!

-BELL RINGS

-Great start there.

Oh, well done, Halima.

Well done, Stephen.

That's it, Peter. Collect them all up

and go, put them into the wall. Very good.

That's it. Good jumping.

-Big jump, there, Stephen.

-Yeah!

LINE: There's rats everywhere!

They are everywhere, Line.

Watch out for the spinning octopus.

That's it. Big throw.

Keep going, that's it.

Well done, Halima.

The octopus has fallen down. Uh-oh.

Oh, Cook, get up!

Doing really well over here on the wall. That's it.

Good work, Peter.

-Well done, Fay.

-I'm protecting the wall!

Fay, there's lots of here.

Here you go, Peter.

-Let's sweep them all up.

-Chase him!

That's it, keep pulling them down.

Ha-ha-ha!

You're so silly, Cook.

Cook, they're just running round you.

Brilliant.

OK, let's have a look over here.

Still got quite a few holes we need to fill.

Don't let that octopus put you off.

Quick, collect up loads now that

Cook's over there. That's it.

Fay, come and grab lots of them.

That's it. Loads.

We need some more mice as well.

-Make sure you've got some mice.

-Go the other way, it's too busy.

You still need to fill up a couple of the rat holes.

That's it, Fay. Over here. Quick. There's five holes left.

-Don't need that one.

-Three more mice to go over this side.

A rat in the middle. There's a rat hole there.

Now we need four, five mice.

We need five more mice.

Oh, that board is filling up quickly!

We're running out of time, quick.

We need another mouse here.

-Two more mice!

-Ten, nine...

-Eight...

-Eight, seven, six...

-We need a mouse!

-Five, four, three, two, one...

-A mouse, quick. Over here.

-Well done, Peter. Yes!

-Oh...

Brilliant! We just made it.

Well done, Swashbucklers. Squawk, you got the bird's eye view.

-Over to you.

-What a game.

It was an up-and-down kind of game.

First of all, Cook fell down in his octopus outfit.

Then Peter was going so fast, he slipped over too,

and Cook tumbled after. Ha-ha!

Let's look at that again.

Peter was much quicker at getting back to his feet though,

and he whizzed past Cook.

-The board filled up nicely...

-MICE SQUEAK

..and with the last little mouse in place,

I'm pleased to say, Gem, you win.

-Yeah!

-Yeah!

Wow! Well done, my hearties, you've won us back another jewel,

so, Captain Sinker, you know the rule...

-send down a jewel!

-Send down a jewel!

Well, you can have this one

but I'm burying the rest in the shipwreck.

-Yeah!

-Yeah!

Here it is. Oh, it's the purple one. Wow.

There you go, Halima, pop it in the chest for me, please.

-Yeah!

-Well done. Ha-ha-ha!

Right, I'm off to see how my crew are getting on

with their sandcastles. Hee-hee-hee!

Right, you two, we need to get out onto the beach and build

our sand... What on earth is going on here?

Well, we remembered we needed some sand, Captain.

But you build sandcastles where there's lots of sand...

ON THE BEACH! You don't bring it all INSIDE...

Oh, never mind, let me get a picture for the competition.

Right, let me see what you've built.

Ahem...

Ah! I mean, it's...

I'm not finished yet.

I just need to add the little shell...

All done!

Let's see what Cook did. Oh!

Wow! Oh, my goodness, it's perfect!

Oh, I'll definitely win the competition now.

But it's my castle, why can't I win?

Oh, stop complaining, I'm the captain, it's mine really!

Oh, and anyway, I'm the one

who's going to look great wearing the golden crown.

-There's just one thing missing...

-No, it's perfect,

let me take a picture. All right...

Oh... Oh!

Get this bucket off my foot!

Yeah, you're right, Line. It needs something

-to make it look more piratey.

-BOING! BOING!

THUD!

Not quite the piratey look I was going for.

Never mind, we can just build a new sandcastle together.

Yay!

Time for a shell-fie!

Say, "Seashells!"

She sells.

-CHILDREN:

-Ha-ha-ha! Yeah!

-Yay!

-All right, Swashbucklers, you still need to find three more

of my jewels to make sure one of those pirates walks the plank

but I need to make sure you are ready by doing

the Swashbuckle salute one more time. Let me see you all marching.

Put your hands on your hearts. Here we go!

-Eye patch...

-Eye patch!

-Pirate hat...

-Pirate hat!

Swashbuckle cheer...

Arrr-harrr!

-Brilliant.

-Oh, well, I might not win the Sandcastle competition,

but I will win the next game because it's the hardest yet!

It's the Shipwreck Rummage.

Squawk. The aim of the game is to collect the rest of Gem's jewels

that have been hidden around the shipwreck.

Use the map because X marks the spot where

each of the jewels can be found, but be careful -

Cook, Line and Captain Sinker have hidden the jewels well

and they must all be in the chest before the time runs out.

Yeah!

OK, my hearties. You need to find three more of my jewels.

Let me show you where they are hiding.

Up on the top deck, we have the red jewel in one of the barrels of maps,

then on the middle deck, the blue jewel is in the pool of pearls,

and on the lower deck, the white jewel is in the food stall.

OK, Peter and Fay, you're going first for me.

-Which colour?

-Blue.

-The pool of pearls?

-Yeah.

-All right, then. Are we ready to play?

-Arrr-harrr!

-Then, Swashbucklers away!

-BELL RINGS

And they're off.

Ho-ho, all through those beachballs. Well done.

Ho-ho, the beachballs are flying already

as Peter and Fay race to the pool of pearls, and in they go.

Now, to find that blue jewel.

Peter has almost disappeared under the pearls.

Cook is making it very difficult for them.

-Got it!

-Stephen's got it.

-Brilliant, Fay's got it.

-I'll swap you for a fish.

-No.

-No, thanks, Cook.

-They've got it so where are you going next?

-The red.

-The red, right at the top.

Wait for them, then it's your turn.

Wait for Fay and off you go.

Brilliant. Well done.

That's the blue safely back

as Halima and Stephen make their way past the tumbling rats and mice

to the top deck, and the red jewel.

Halima is up the rigging but - oh, no!

Stephen is stuck in the cannonballs.

Let him get through, Line!

Halima is on to the top deck, now,

-and Stephen is free at last.

-Get out of there!

It's in that barrel of maps, Halima.

She has got it. Now, race back to Gem.

Brilliant, Halima, bring it straight down.

-Where are you guys going?

-White one.

-OK, white.

Wait a minute for them to come back.

You ready? Off you go.

Brilliant, well done.

-Yes. Very good.

-Yeah!

So, just one jewel to find.

It's the white and it's in the food store.

Oh, he's pouring it all out. He's found the jewel!

Peter has got it. Quick!

Back to the chest.

That it. Into the chest.

-Hurry, the tentacle is nearly at the chest!

-That's it.

-Yes!

-Yes!

Woohoo! Well done, my hearties.

Squawk, you've got the bird's eye view - over to you.

That was exciting.

Peter went swimming in the pool of pearls and bagged the blue jewel.

Stephen got stuck in the cannonballs but Halima retrieved the red.

Line couldn't stop Peter finding the white,

and though it nearly got stuck in his bag,

it was in the chest before the time ran out, so, Swashbucklers, you win!

-Yeah!

-Yes!

You did it. Well done, Swashbucklers.

You won back all five of my jewels. Thank you so much.

Now I can hand them out for you to hold on to.

-There you go, Fay.

-Thank you.

-You're welcome.

-Halima.

-Thank you.

-A red one for you, Peter.

-Thank you.

-A purple one for Stephen.

-Thank you.

-And the blue one for me.

Let's hear it for my Swashbucklers!

Yeah!

Now we have all five of these jewels,

you know what it's time for -

one of these pirates has to walk the plank, but who is it going to be?

Let's spin the wheel to see. Off you go, Stephen.

Will it be Cook with his white hat,

or Line, wearing his red bandanna,

or Captain Sinker, with the black hat?

It's going to be...

-Captain Sinker!

-Yeah!

-Ha-ha!

So we have to say to the Captain...

-Walk the plank! Walk the plank!

-Walk the plank! Walk the plank!

Walk the plank! Walk the plank! Walk the plank!

Walk the plank! Walk the plank!

Yay!

Ha-ha-ha-ha!

Ugh!

Ugh!

Oh, we love it best

when Captain Sinker ends up in the smelly ship's mess.

We'll see you next time, my hearties. Bye-bye.

Bye!
