Precious Pearls Swashbuckle

# A band of naughty pirates Took some jewels from me

# I hid on board 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 I make the pirates walk the plank?

-Yeah!

Well, let's hear you then, me 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!

Ahoy there, me hearties, welcome to Swashbuckle!

-AUDIENCE:

-Arrr-harrr!

I'm Gem and it's great to have you aboard the Scarlet Squid!

Are you ready for a rip-roaring pirate adventure?

-AUDIENCE:

-Arrr-harrr!

And will you help me to win back my jewels from those naughty pirates?

-AUDIENCE:

-Arrr-harrr!

Fantastic. Now, where is Captain Sinker? Can you see her anywhere?

-Oh, there she is!

-ALL:

-Boo-oo!

Stop all your booing!

I can't cover my ears because I'm holding on to my new treasure!

Cook! Line!

BOTH: Yes, Captain Sinker, Sir?

I mean, urgh! What's that smell?

Is it you?

It's not me! I had a wash three weeks ago!

No, it's this oyster shell.

But it's so smelly!

It might be smelly, but look what's inside!

A very precious pearl.

-Wow!

-Whee!

So, it might be smelly, but I want you to go and find more pearls,

so I can be rich... I mean, WE can be rich for ever!

I hope they do find lots more pearls,

and then maybe we could win those back as well!

Right, Squawk, it's time to meet today's Swashbucklers.

Playing today, we've got Ayesha.

She is six and loves eating strawberries.

Let's hope it's a BERRY good day for her!

Her Swashbuckle name is Admiral Ayesha.

Next, it's Holly.

Holly is seven and enjoys playing on the slide in her garden.

Great practice for the Shipwreck Rummage!

Her Swashbuckle name is Mischievous Holly!

Meet Kunde!

Kunde is six and loves playing football,

so he'll be good at tackling the pirate games.

His Swashbuckle name is Bow Kunde!

Finally, here's Mariam!

Mariam is five years old and likes her fab clothes.

I hope she likes her pirate outfit!

Her Swashbuckle name is Mariner Mariam!

Welcome aboard to my brand-new team of Swashbucklers! Great to see you.

So, I need you to help me

win back my jewels from naughty Captain Sinker.

But I need to make sure you are ready for the challenge

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

Put your hand on your hearts!

-Here we go! Eye patch.

-AUDIENCE:

-Eye patch.

-Pirate hat.

-AUDIENCE:

-Pirate hat.

Swashbuckle cheer!

-AUDIENCE:

-Arrr-harr!

Well done! You are ready. Squawk, what do we have to do today?

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!

-AUDIENCE:

-Urgh!

And here is our treasure chest.

So, when you win back all my jewels from naughty Captain Sinker,

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

I'm not giving my precious treasure to you!

The first game is too tricky for Swishbobblers!

It's Swashbucklers! And we are ready for the challenge.

Squawk, what is the first game?

The first game is...

The aim of the game is to get six coconuts into the barrel.

All you have to do is use your raft to collect the coconuts

and then bull's-eye them into the barrel.

But be careful, Cook and Line will be naughty and try to stop you!

And here is the barrel where you need to collect the six

soft coconuts, which you can find on the other side of the lagoon,

underneath the palm tree.

But look out, because Cook and Line will try to put you off.

They are feeling very pesky today!

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

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

-Kunde and Ayesha, will you go first for me?

-Yeah.

-Brilliant.

Are we ready to play?

-AUDIENCE:

-Arrr-harrr!

-Then, Swashbucklers away!

All right, now let's get across. There we go, good stuff.

Uh-oh, look out for Cook and Line, they are throwing their beach balls!

That's it, well done, you are nearly there!

Right, jump ashore and collect those coconuts!

Well done, brilliant! OK, we've got four coconuts.

Bring them back as quick as you can. Oh, watch out for Cook and Line!

They've just missed you with their balls!

Collect your coconuts and swap over. Well done!

OK, stand just there, Kunde. Ready? And off we go.

Yeah! It went in! Have another try.

Yes, two in! Good work.

Two, already!?

OK, Ayesha, your turn, are you ready?

And it's in, yes!

Brilliant.

And the next one. Oh!

Come on, Mariam, that's it. Well done, Holly.

Knock the coconut off the raft!

Oh, Line, you are a cheeky pirate!

Well done, girls, collect your coconuts.

And swap over! That's it, swap over.

Go and collect some more.

Yes, it went in! Good work. Well done, Holly, good girl.

Oh! Have another go. A bit higher.

Oh! It's just missed it.

Keep going, Kunde, come on.

I'll get one off this time!

Oh, yes, Cook, well done!

That's it, collect your coconuts and swap over! Here we go. Ready?

Off you go! Brilliant! We need one more in, that's it.

Oh, they only need one more!

Let's have another try.

It's in, brilliant! Yes! Well done, me hearties, we've done it!

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

What a cracker of a Coconutty Raft!

Kunde got two in a row and Ayesha sank the third from way up high.

Cheeky Line knocked off a coconut

and a beach ball hit Gem as Holly scored!

Mariam had a shot go near,

but Kunde and Ayesha got the last two they needed.

Six coconuts in the barrel. Gem, you win!

CHEERING

Yeah! Well done, me hearties.

You've won our first jewel, good work!

So, Captain Sinker, you know the rule.

-ALL:

-Send down a jewel!

Oh, have it! I prefer pearls anyway.

CHEERING

Here comes the white jewel, fantastic!

There you go, Kunde, in the chest, please. Good work, well done!

So, now we only need four more of those sparkly jewels

and then one of these naughty pirates will have to walk

the plank into the smelly Ship's Mess!

AUDIENCE: Urgh!

Hey, Captain, we are going to find you some more pearls!

Oh, have you got more oyster shells?

No, but we've got my old socks!

Yeah, they smell just like the oyster shells,

so we thought there might be treasure inside!

Oh, oh, look! No pearls, but...

precious fingers!

That's not treasure! Finish slopping out!

OK, Captain.

HE SNIFFS

Hey, Line, the Ship's Mess smells like the oyster shells, too!

Maybe there's pearls in there!

Oh, it looks like Cook and Line have got

a very smelly adventure ahead!

Come on, Captain, we want to play another game to try

and win back another of my jewels, so, Squawk, what's next?

The second game is...

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 and Line will be bouncing too

and trying to stop you!

CHEERING

And here are the soft toy mice and rats

you need to collect to play the game.

The little mice go into the little holes

and the big holes are for the big rats.

So, Holly and Ayesha, you are going to be bouncing for me? Brilliant.

So, Kunde and Mariam, let me give you these to start you off.

But do watch out, because Cook and Line will be trying to put you off!

Are we ready to play?

-AUDIENCE:

-Arrr-harrr!

-Then, Swashbucklers away!

OK, let's get plenty of rats and mice, well done.

Good jumping, girls.

That's it, Holly. Well done, Ayesha. Good work!

Excellent bouncing, Line!

Uh-oh, look out for the octopus,

it's going to try and grab with its tentacles!

Well done, Kunde, that's it. We've still got lots more holes to fill!

Brilliant work, Holly, very good!

Well done. We've got lots more rats and mice down here.

Oh, get up, Cook!

Lots of them... Oh, Cook!

Come on, Holly, keep doing! There is one there, in the middle.

Can you reach that one?

Big jump!

Keep going, that's it!

Oh, he fell over!

About 10 or 11 holes left to fill.

We need lots more rats and mice!

That's it, well done, Ayesha, big throw!

Good work, Kunde, you got past him. Now fill those holes, come on!

Oh, Cook!

Quite a few holes left to fill.

Two, four, six... Maybe 10!

15 seconds left!

Here we go, Swashbucklers!

Ten, nine, eight, seven,

six, five, four, three,

two, one!

BELL RINGS

And time is up, me hearties! Well done.

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

Unlucky, Swashbucklers!

It was raining rats and mice

and octopus Cook was tumbling down, too!

The girls went up and down and Cook went round and round!

But there were too many holes to fill

and those tentacles got in the way!

Those cheeky pirates did their job. Sorry, Gem, you lose!

Oh, never mind, me hearties, you tried really hard.

But don't worry,

because we could still win that jewel back a little bit later.

Oh, Gem? I've got a little treat for you.

-AUDIENCE:

-Boo!

What is this, Sinker?

Urgh! A block of smelly cheese?!

-AUDIENCE:

-Eww!

Yes, and you won't find anything precious in it!

Well, we are still hoping to win back all of my precious jewels

later and then one of you pirates will be stinky in the Ship's Mess!

I don't think that's going to happen.

Why don't you lot figure out

how you're going to find the rest of the jewels?

I'm going off to my captain's quarters

to put my pearl in a safe place.

What's all this slop doing here? It really stinks!

We are searching for some more precious pearls.

You found your pearl somewhere smelly,

so we're looking for more pearls in this smelly slop!

Oh! OK, well, I'll watch, then. This will keep them busy!

Line, take this pearl and make it shiny.

Oh, yes, Captain Sinker!

Captain?

Make sure it's nice and shiny, or you'll be walking the plank!

I found one! Another pearl!

Another one? Oh, well done!

Line, put that with the other one.

OK...

Right, well, you must be right,

there really are pearls in this smelly slop.

-I'm going to have a go. Pass me a bucket!

-Try this one, Captain.

Ooh, I found one! Line, put that with the others.

There must be loads in these buckets! Keep them coming.

That's it! We must be rich!

There were hundreds of pearls in these buckets.

So, where are they, Line?

-Where's what?

-The hundreds of pearls.

I haven't seen hundreds of pearls.

Every time I found one, I passed it to you!

Yeah, and I've been putting it in another bucket to keep it safe.

Are you telling me that every time, I've been finding the same pearl?

It would appear so.

Where is the one pearl now?

Now, I know this. It's, um...

Oh! It's in this one. Hands out!

Oh, no, doesn't look like it's in that one.

-Maybe it's in this one, Captain.

-No, this isn't... No!

No, it's definitely in this one. There you go... Oh!

-It's not.

-What are the odds?

-Must be in this one, Captain.

It's getting awfully messy!

Is it in that one?

A bit more...

OK, then, me hearties,

we still need to find four of my jewels to make sure

one of these pirates walks the plank later,

but I need to make sure you are ready for the

Shipwreck Rummage by doing the Swashbuckle Salute one more time.

So, let me see you all marching! Put your hands on your hearts!

-Here we go! Eye patch.

-AUDIENCE:

-Eye patch.

-Pirate hat.

-AUDIENCE:

-Pirate hat.

Swashbuckle cheer!

-AUDIENCE:

-Arrr-harr!

Good stuff!

Urgh! I'll find that pearl eventually.

But because I'm so cross about it,

the last game will be the trickiest yet!

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 had Captain Sinker have hidden the

jewels well and they must all be in the chest before the time runs out!

OK, me hearties, you need to find four more of my jewels to make

sure those pirates walk the plank.

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,

we have the blue jewel in the basket of sea creatures.

And down on the lower deck, the green jewel is in the hammock.

And the purple jewel is in the rope store.

So, Kunde and Mariam, you're going first.

-Which colour will you go for?

-Purple.

The purple one? All right. Are we ready to play?

-AUDIENCE:

-Arrr-harrr!

-Then, Swashbucklers away!

Off we go! Look out for the beach balls!

'It's Kunde and Mariam up first.

'They are after the purple jewel in the rope store.

'Kunde's digging around for it,

'but where is it? Have a good rummage!'

# I'm going to find it first! #

'What's that? He's got it!'

They've got the purple one, so where are you going next?

-The red one.

-The red one at the top? All right.

Wait for them to come back.

That's it, and off you go! Well done!

'That's the purple jewel back in the chest.

'And now it's the girls, going for the second jewel.

'Up the steps and out onto the middle deck.

'Holly and Ayesha are after the red jewel. Keep going, girls!

'As quick as you can! They've reached Captain Sinker.

'Now, where is that red jewel?

'Holly's got it! Now, back to the chest.'

That's it, bring it down.

-So, they got the red one, where will you go next?

-The blue one.

OK, wait for them to come back.

That's it, up to the middle deck, go, go, go!

'Two jewels home, two to find.

'Kunde and Mariam are going for blue in the basket of sea creatures!

'They need to get past the cannonballs and up the rigging!'

That's it, climb all the way up the rigging, you're doing really well.

'Cook's throwing the fish at Mariam

'and Line is waiting for them with a big basket, too!

'But it's not going to put them off. Yes, they've got it!'

OK, girls, they've got the blue one, now I need the green one,

down in one of the hammocks. Off you go!

'In it goes. And whoa, Line nearly got them!

'But Ayesha and Holly are now in the hammocks

'and looking for the last jewel!

'Is it in that one? Yes, it is!

'And Holly's got it! Now, back to the chest!'

That's it, and into the chest! Yes, go!

CHEERING

Well done, Swashbucklers, high-fives all round! That was amazing.

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

High-five for five jewels!

Cook and Line were making a mess in that game!

Bouncing pearls, flying pearls,

and not one but two baskets tipped out on the Swashbucklers!

What cheeky pirates!

But nothing could stop your team,

with all the jewels back in the chest.

Gem, that's a win!

CHEERING

Well done, me hearties. You've won back all five of my jewels!

Thank you so much.

So now I can hand them out to you, to hold on to for me.

-There you go, Holly.

-Thank you.

-You're welcome. One for you, Kunde.

-Thank you.

-That's OK! There you go, Mariam.

-Thank you.

-You're very welcome. And one for you, Ayesha.

-Thank you!

You're very welcome! And a blue one for me.

Let's hear it for my Swashbucklers!

CHEERING

So, now we've got all five of my jewels, you know

what it's time for...

One of these naughty pirates has to walk the plank!

But who is it going to be? Let's spin the wheel to see.

Off you go, Ayesha.

Big spin, that's it. Well done!

So, will it be Cook in his white hat,

or Line in his red bandanna,

or will it be Captain Sinker in her black hat?

It's going to be...

-..Line!

-Ohh!

So, Line, it's time for you to...

-ALL:

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

Walk the plank! Walk the plank!

Walk the plank!

CHEERING

Eww! Well, you won't find any pearls in that Ship's Mess,

but you will find one pongy pirate!

We'll see you next time for more Swashbuckle!

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

# 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!
