Cannonball Catastrophe 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!

Aharrggghhh!

My name's Gem and it's great to have you all aboard!

Are you ready for a rip-roaring pirate adventure?

Aharrggghhh!

And will you help me to win back my jewels

from those very naughty pirates?

Aharrggghhh!

Great! Now, where is Captain Sinker? Can you see her anywhere?

BOO!

Oh, boo yourselves. Now, where are my crew?

Cook? Line?

Yes, Captain Sinker, sir... I mean, ma'am!

What are you doing?

We're just cleaning Line's cannonball collection.

Cannonballs?! Wait! Don't they go bang?

No, they don't. Do they?

What? Argh! Hide!

Shut your eyes!

You need gunpowder to make a cannonball go bang!

Oooh!

And I've stored all the gunpowder down in the hold,

where these two can't get it,

so everyone's quite safe.

-Oh, brilliant.

-THUMP

Aargh!

Would you stop all this nonsense?! Now, Cook,

today I would like you to make me an extra-special pudding.

Is it a special day?

Cos I can't make a special pudding unless it's a special day.

Yes, it is. It is,

International Pirates...

Who've Lost Their Hat Day.

International Pirates Who've Lost Their Hat Day?

I think you're making that up!

-No, I'm not.

-Yes, you are.

-No, I'm not.

-Hmm...

It's a real day.

I'm a real pirate, so it's real.

Now, Cook! Hop to it! A pudding, now!

OK, Captain!

What are those silly pirates like?

Right, time to meet my swashbuckling team today. Squawk, who are they?

Playing today, we've got three daring Swashbucklers.

First up, it's Angelo!

Angelo is six years old and he likes playing basketball.

Well, let's hope one of the naughty pirates has

a dunk in the ship's mess later.

His Swashbuckle name is Admiral Angelo!

Next, it's Alicia!

Alicia is five years old and she loves playing hide and seek.

She will be brilliant at the shipwreck rummage, then.

Sinker hides the jewels and the Swashbucklers seek them.

Her Swashbuckle name is Peg Leg Alicia.

And finally, here's Louie.

Louie is seven years old and loves playing out with his friends.

I'm sure they will all be cheering him on today

as he plays games with the pirates.

His Swashbuckle name is Sea Dog Louie.

CHEERING

Welcome aboard to my three Swashbucklers.

So, we are going to have to work very hard today

to win back all of those jewels.

So I need to make sure that you three ready by doing

the Swashbuckle salute.

Let me see your marching.

Put your hands on your hearts. Here we go.

-Eye patch. KIDS:

-Eye patch.

-Pirate hat. KIDS:

-Pirate hat.

Swashbuckle cheer!

-KIDS:

-Aharrggghhh!!

Well done and nice spin, Louie. I think we 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.

CHEERING

And here is our treasure chest, Swashbucklers.

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

we will put them in here to keep them safe. All right?

The jewels are mine, now, Gem.

And the first game is very tricky indeed.

You sploshmucklers don't have the stomach for it.

It's "Swashbucklers" and we are ready for any challenge,

so bring it on!

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 and stop you.

CHEERING

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

coconuts, which are the other side of the lagoon

underneath the palm tree, but uh-oh!

Look out because Cook and Line are about

and they will try to put you off.

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.

So, Angelo and Alicia, you are the coconut collectors and Louie,

you are the coconut thrower, all right?

Brilliant. Are we ready to play?

Aharrggghhh!!

Then Swashbucklers away! Come on!

Come on, everybody, cheer them on. Give them some help. That's it.

Oh, that is a very speedy start.

Whoohoo!

Come on, Louie, let's cheer them on.

-Alicia! Angelo!

-That's it, well done.

You have got to bring them over. Come on! Oh, this is great work.

Oh, no!

You can knock off more coconuts than that!

Good work.

Alicia, pass it over to Louie. Good work.

And that's it, into the barrel. All, we missed that one.

Back onto the raft, Coconut collectors. Let's try again.

Yay! And now this one, take your time, Louie. Here we go.

Yeah! Good work. Let's wait for the next one to come back over.

Wait for Alicia, Angelo!

That's it. Brilliant. Over you come.

Keep going.

OK, Louie, wait for them to come over.

Brilliant. Now take your time. That's it.

Oh, here you go. Here is the next one. Great work, back you go.

And try again?

Yeah! OK, Louie, stand here.

-Yeah!

-Oh, no!

We need two more coconuts and then we can get back my jewel!

LINE: I messed it up, Cook!

Great, you have all four coconuts, now. OK, 20 seconds left.

There you go. Good work. Go back and collect some more for us. YAY!

We only need one more in. Can we do it? Have another try.

KIDS CHANT Good luck. Five seconds... Yes!

CHEERING

Look at this for a celebration! Well done, Swashbucklers.

And Louie, you still had one left. We don't need that one.

Squawk, you have got the bird's eye view. Over to you. Good work!

What a coconutty game!

Louie missed at first, but quickly got the next two in.

'Wait for Alicia, Angelo!'

Angelo nearly set off without Alicia on board the raft!

But my favourite bit has to be Louie's celebration at the end.

With the sixth coconut in the barrel, he slid on the floor!

Congratulations, Gem, you win!

CHEERING

Yes, we did it! And what a great way to celebrate, Swashbucklers.

And now, we can celebrate by getting our first jewel.

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

EVERYBODY: Send down a jewel!

Fine, you won this jewel but you won't win any more!

CHEERING

Here it is. Oh, wow, it's the purple one! Brilliant.

There you go, Angelo. Pop it in the chest for me, please.

CHEERING Wonderful, yeah!

So, we only need four more jewels and then one of the naughty pirates

will have to walk the plank into the smelly ship's mess!

KIDS: Ew!

-Cook, how is my special pudding coming along?

-Very well, Captain.

I found some chocolate powder in the hold,

-so I'm going to make a chocolate and seaweed pudding.

-Oh, seaweed?!

If you've got chocolate powder, why are you putting seaweed in it?

Well, it has to be a piratey pudding

because it is International Pirates Who've Lost Their Hat Day. So sad.

Is it? Oh, yes, no, of course it is! Yes, poor pirates, yes.

But you know what, just today, forget the seaweed.

-How about...?

-And the fish sauce.

So just a nice chocolate pudding.

-And, Line, stay out of his way, OK?

-Yes, Captain.

-Oh, sorry, I'm in your way.

-No, no just...

-I'll go that way...

-You go that way...

No, just...

Oh, those silly pirates!

But it looks like Cook might make something delicious for once. Mm!

And now, we are hungry to win back another jewel.

-So, Squawk, what is the next game?

-The second game is...

The aim of the game is to put the toy sea creatures in the baskets.

All you have to do is climb the tangled fishing net

and collect them.

But be careful, pearls will be poured onto you

and Cook or Line will swap the creatures around!

CHEERING

And here are the pictures of the soft toy sea creatures

that you need to collect.

We have a lobster...

an octopus...

and a seahorse. That's right.

And there are six altogether

and they are in the tangly net.

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

and they might swap them around

in the baskets, too, so keep an eye out.

We're going up the tangled net in pairs.

-Boys, you're going first for me?

-Yeah.

-Great. Are we ready to play?

ALL: ARR-HARR! Swashbucklers, away!

Cheer them on, here we go, come on!

That's it, boys, good climbing. CHEERING

We need to get two octupus, two seahorses...

and two lobsters.

That's it, brilliant, Angelo. You've got the first seahorse, well done.

And, Alicia, off you go, good work.

That's it, keep going, Louie.

That's it.

Brilliant. Well done, Alicia.

And Angelo, off you go. Good girl, well done, into the basket.

-Give it back to me!

-That's it.

Well done. Good work there, Louie.

Throw some pearls, Cook.

Just bring one down, just one.

That's it. Well done, Angelo. He's got the seahorse. Come down.

Well done, you're nearly there.

Brilliant.

Woo, crafty, Line.

That's it, Alicia, off you go. We're halfway, keep going.

That's it.

We need to get another octopus and another lobster right from the top.

You've got pearls on your head -

keep going!

No, you take it into the basket, that's it.

And, Angelo... Off you go to the next octopus. That's it, good work.

Keep going, Alicia, we're nearly there.

Fantastic, bring it down.

Louie, keep an eye on Line over there, he's switching them

in the baskets. That's it, well done, Angelo.

Oh, that's the octopus coming.

Brilliant, here comes the last one. Let's get it in the right basket.

And we've done it!

GEM CHEERS

Good work, Swashbucklers!

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

That's how to play Tangled Nets, Swashbucklers!

Louie and Angelo were first in the net and, before long,

the first seahorse was home.

Alicia grabbed a lobster and was in the basket in double-quick time.

Line tried to be crafty with his crab claw,

but the Swashbucklers always spotted him.

Six sea creatures in the baskets, that's a win!

CHEERING

We did it again!

Swashbucklers, yes! Louie, we are so pleased. We've won our second jewel.

So, Captain Sinker, you know the rule!

ALL: Send down a jewel!

Oh, my sweet, sweet jewel.

CHEERING

Here is the white one, fantastic. There you go, Alicia.

Let's get it in the chest.

CHEERING Brilliant.

Oh, my pudding must be ready by now.

It'll be in my captain's quarters. Yummy!

Oh, pudding time, yum, yum!

You can't eat these cannonballs, Captain,

they're bad for your teeth.

I don't want cannonballs, I want pudding!

And here it is! One chocolate pudding.

I used all the chocolate powder I found in the hold.

Though it won't taste very nice, I've left out the seaweed

-and the fish sauce.

-Well, I'm actually impressed.

It looks delicious, Cook, well done!

Oh, thanks a lot, Captain. Oh, almost forgot,

-dusting of icing sugar.

-I'll help...

Careful!

HE SHRIEKS

The cannonballs!

-My pudding!

-It's all right, the pudding is...this one.

Uh... Oh...

-Ugh. That was a cannonball.

-I think I've got it, Captain, it's this one.

DING DING

LAUGHTER

-Another cannonball!

-Oh, yeah...

THUD

Find me my pudding now!

-Found it, Captain, it's this one.

-At last, finally, yum.

Oh, wait, Captain, I've not cooked it yet. It needs to go in the oven.

I'll do it!

-Cook, what flavour is your pudding?

-Chocolate flavour.

-I used all the chocolate powder.

-No, you didn't.

The tin hasn't been opened yet, see?

Well, what did I use, then?

BOTH: GUNPOWDER!

Does that make cannonballs go bang?

BANG

I think it makes puddings go bang, too.

LAUGHTER

I think it's cooked.

Now, that smells delicious.

OK, my hearties, we need to win back three jewels to make sure

one of those pirates walks the plank, but I need to make sure

you're ready for the Shipwreck Rummage by doing the

Swashbuckle salute one more time.

So, let me see you all marching.

Put your hand on your heart. Here we go...

-Eye patch. ALL:

-Eye patch.

-Pirate hat.

-Pirate hat.

-Swashbuckle cheer.

-Arrr-harr!

Oh, we all did it that time, brilliant.

It's the Shipwreck Rummage!

HE SQUAWKS

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.

-CHEERING

Swashbucklers, we need to win back the three jewels

to make sure one of those Pirates walks the plank,

so let me show you where they're hiding.

Up on the top deck, we have the green jewel

in one of the three birds nests.

On the middle deck, the red jewel is in the pool of pearls.

And on the lower deck, the blue jewel is in one

of the three hammocks. There are three Swashbucklers

and three jewels, so I think we should go and get one each.

Louie, which one are you going for?

-Green.

-Right at the top?

-Yeah.

-OK. Are we ready to play?

BOTH: Arrr-harr! Then, Swashbucklers away!

Louie's up first and he's into the shipwreck.

He's making his way up the stairs, to the top deck and the birds nest.

-Keep going.

-Across the middle deck he goes and,

oh, he's taken a tumble.

But he's OK, and now he needs to climb up that slope

to join Line and Captain Sinker.

-Captain, I can stop him.

-It's the green jewel he's looking for,

as he makes it up to the top deck and dives into the tunnel.

That's it, go in the tunnel. Well done, Louie.

Now he just needs to reach up. Has he got it? Yes, he has!

Brilliant, OK. So we've got the green jewel at the top.

Now, Alicia, which one are you going for?

The red one in the pool of pearls? Brilliant.

-Come on, Louie, quick.

-Louie's got to make it past a

windmilling Cook and down the slide to his team-mates.

Brilliant. Off you go, Alicia, good luck.

Alicia now off to find the red, as the green jewel is safely home

in the treasure chest.

Up she comes and into the pool of pearls she goes.

Now, where's that jewel? I don't believe it, she's got it!

Brilliant, she's got it already,

so now we'll need to get the last jewel,

and that's the blue one right at the bottom.

We'll wait for her to come back.

Good girl, that's it. Come on...

And off you go, Angelo!

-Well done.

-That's the red back, so just one more to find.

Angelo has arrived in the hammocks

and needs to start rummaging quickly!

The tentacle isn't at the chest yet. But will he have time?

He needs to get everything out of that hammock

to find the jewel. And he's got it!

Quick, back you go!

Put it in the chest!

CHEERING

GEM LAUGHS

Look at that, a victory there for our Swashbucklers. Fantastic.

Squawk, you've got the bird's-eye view. How did it look to you?

It was a three-jewel rummage, but they aren't always easy.

Louie got the team underway when he grabbed the green from

the birds nests, Alicia pounced on the red in the pool of pearls

and Angelo was careful to empty the hammock as he bagged the blue.

It's a perfect performance, team - you win!

CHEERING

Brilliant. Well, I only have three Swashbucklers today,

but that was enough to win back all five of my jewels!

Thank you. Now I can hand them out to you

-to hold on to them for me. There you go, Angelo.

-Thank you.

-You're welcome. There's one for you.

-Thank you.

-That's all right. And there you go.

-Thank you!

-You are welcome.

And I've got two today.

A big cheer for my very brave Swashbucklers!

CHEERING

And now we have all five of the jewels, you know what it's time for.

One of those naughty pirates has to walk the plank.

But who's it going to be? Louie, let's spin the wheel to see...

And...a big spin!

Brilliant. So will it be Cook with the white hat?

Or Line with the red bandana?

Or Captain Sinker with her black hat?

It looks like...

it's going to be...

It's Cook!

CHEERING

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

ALL: WALK THE PLANK!

WALK THE PLANK!

WALK THE PLANK!

Oh, here I go...

CHEERING

LAUGHTER

Eugh!

ALL: EUGH!

One ship's mess with a pinch of pesky pirate.

Now, that is a winning recipe. Ha-ha.

We'll see you next time for more Swashbuckle!

CHEERING

# 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.

ALL: Arrr-harr!
