Talk Like a Pirate 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?

# 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, 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, and welcome to Swashbuckle!

Arrr-harrr!

-Are you ready for a rip-roaring pirate adventure?

-Arrr-harrr!

Great! Now, Captain Sinker is off on her holidays

and I wonder what she's up to.

AUDIENCE LAUGH

Ha-ha! So Captain Sinker's enjoying her holiday and I'm looking forward

to winning back my jewels.

But very strict Captain Captain is guarding them.

-Can you see her anywhere?

-Boo!

Avast that booing!

Ooh, Captain Captain, you're sounding very pirate-y today.

Yes, I am, aren't I?

Avast is pirate talk for stop.

So stop your booing!

Boo!

Cook, Line!

-BOTH:

-Yes, Captain Captain?

Please tell me you two know how to talk like pirates.

Arrr-harrr!

Oh, so you do know.

Arrr-harrr!

-Is that the only thing you can say?

-Arrr-harrr!

Right!

Take this book, it's a pirate dictionary, and start learning

because there will be a test later.

Arrr-harrr!

Enough of the talking, we want to start playing some games.

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

Playing today we've got Amy.

Amy is seven years old and likes visiting her grandad in Spain.

Her Swashbuckle name is Anchor Amy!

Next it's Jahushen.

Jahushen is six and loves riding his bike.

His Swashbuckle name is Washboard Jahushen.

This is Liam.

Liam is seven and has two cats called Fudge and Tilly.

His Swashbuckle name is Lookout Liam.

Finally, meet Isla.

Isla is six years old and enjoys going swimming.

Let's hope all the Swashbucklers will make

a dive for those jewels today.

Isla's Swashbuckle name is Old-Salt Isla.

Welcome aboard, me hearties.

Here's my new team of Swashbucklers here to help me win back my jewels

from Captain Captain and those pesky pirates.

I need to make sure you're ready for the challenge

so let do the Swashbuckle Salute. 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-harrr!

Brilliant. Now, gather round and have a look here.

This is where we put my jewels when we win them back

from naughty Captain Captain.

You won't win these jewels, so avast your talking Gem.

Avast may be pirate talk for stop.

But you're not going to stop us winning back our jewels today,

Captain Captain. So, bring it on! Squawk, what's the first game?

The first game is Stepping Stones.

Squawk! The aim of the game is to build a statue of me.

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.

Good luck!

Thanks, Squawk. And here's your picture.

And we need to collect six more of the pieces to build the Squawk

statue and you can find them over the other side of the stepping

stones, in the crates.

But look out for the pesky pirates who will try to make you fall in.

Cook is flinging fish and Line is, hang on,

wearing the barrels on his head. That's great news. He won't see you.

But if he does make you fall in, don't worry,

just go back to the side that you were coming from, OK?

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.

-Jahushen and Isla, will you go first for me?

-Yeah.

-Brilliant!

-Are we ready to play?

-Arrr-harrr!

-Then Swashbucklers away!

Come on. We need those six pieces over.

Careful there. Good start.

Well done. Watch out for the barrel.

Goods jump, Jahushen.

Careful, Isla!

That's it, big jump.

Has she made it?

Well done! Good recovery. Brilliant!

They're too good at staying on!

Watch out for those wobbly stepping stones.

Brilliant!

OK. Amy, off you go.

Oh, well done! Look at those big jumps, Swashbucklers.

No, look out. We're nearly there.

Brilliant! Liam off you go.

Well done. Good girl.

That's it. Try again, Amy.

Go again. Good girl.

What are you going to do, Swashbucklers?! Whoa!

He's wobbling. He's going to wobble!

Oh! You've fallen right in.

No. He's recovered well done!

Arrr!

You didn't quite make it across, Amy. Come back this side.

We've got two pieces over, but the third piece is on its way now.

Drop some fish, Line!

OK, Isla, you can go again for me. Good girl.

What are you going to do, Swashbucklers?

Watch out for those steps.

And she's in!

Come on, Amy. Let's try again.

Off you go. Brilliant.

Well done, Isla.

Let's put another one on there.

We're going to run out of time.

Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five,

four, three, two, one.

BELL RINGS

Time is up, my hearties. Good effort!

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

Those pesky pirates were sure trying to avast the Swashbucklers.

The blocking barrels made Liam leap!

And the shaky stones made Amy slip.

We didn't quite get all the pieces back in time, Gem. So, I'm sorry.

It's a lose!

Swashbucklers, that was such a great effort but we didn't win

that jewel back now, but we can get it back later, OK?

Yo-ho-ho! I get to keep this booty.

Booty is pirate talk for treasure.

Tough luck, Gem.

Well, Captain Captain, there's still time for me

to get all of my booty back and then one of you naughty pirates

will have to walk the plank into the stinky ship's mess. Ugh!

THEY SNORE

Oi, you two! Show a leg!

No! Show a leg is pirate talk for WAKE UP!

You have been reading the pirate dictionary, haven't you?

-BOTH:

-Have we been reading the...?

-Or have you been sleeping?

-Yeah.

-That one.

-Right! Scupper that!

Which means throw out the slop. Scupper that!

You want to what?

-I want you...

-Yeah?

-Uh-huh?

-..to slop out...

-Yeah.

-Right.

..NOW!

Why didn't you just say so?

So scupper that means throw out the slop.

And hopefully one of those pirates will be tumbling to

the smelly slop a little bit later.

Let's hope so. Squawk, let's play the next game.

The second game is Swashing!

The aim of the game is for one of you to dress up in

a set of Captain Captain's clothes.

All you have to do is turn the crank and get all of the right

pieces of Captain Captain's laundry safely across the lagoon for

your team-mate to wear.

Be careful, those naughty pirates will be sneaky and try to stop you.

-Have fun, Swashbucklers!

-Thank you, Squawk.

And today we're looking for Captain Captain's bedtime outfit.

And I've got her slippers here to start us off.

Now, we're looking for the flamingos.

So, Amy, I'm going to pass that to you.

Now we need to find four other items with flamingos on them from

the other side of the lagoon over there in the baskets

where Line is wearing them and dancing with the clothes.

And watch out for Cook as well,

who will try to tickle you with his silly seaweed.

Ha-ha! All right then, me hearties. Are we ready to play?

Arrr-harrr!

Then Swashbucklers away!

All right then. Let's get those items over. Cook!

That's it. Well done.

Keep going, all the way forward.

And then stop there.

OK. Liam, jump up for the clothes.

Good work. Brilliant.

Cook! Right, we've rescued it.

Well done.

You've got her sleeping hat.

Brilliant.

Now I can see the dressing gown.

Big jump there, Liam.

Rescue it from the lagoon!

Where are some flamingos?! Ah! Oh!

Great! Keep those for a bit later

because we need to put the T-shirt

and the trousers on first.

Shake the line, Line!

Brilliant! Good girl.

-Oh, Line!

-Ha-ha-ha!

That's it. Well done. Good girl.

And now put it nice and carefully

onto the line.

OK, nice and gentle.

We need to get those trousers across.

Bit quicker!

Brilliant! Well done, Liam. Yes!

Here you go. Now get the T-shirt.

Show a leg and stop them.

It's in the water!

Brilliant! Well done. Thank you.

AUDIENCE CHEERS

Step into the slippers. That's it!

Ten, nine, eight...

Come and help out over here, team!

-..five, four...

-Can we get this on?

-..three, two...

-Nearly there!

-..one!

-BELL RINGS

I think we did it! Amy, give us a twirl. Let's have a look.

Brilliant! Squawk, you've got the bird's eye view. Over to you.

What a frantic game of Swashing.

Cook's tickly seaweed made it tricky.

But Isla grabbed the shirt right from under Line's nose.

The Swashbucklers got the outfit on just in time,

so it's Captain Captain's duty to give you back the booty.

It's a win!

Yes!

Well done, Swashbucklers!

You've won back our first jewel. Brilliant!

So, Captain Captain, you know the rules.

-AUDIENCE:

-Send down a jewel!

Shiver me timbers!

That's pirate talk for when you're feeling quite surprised.

I can't believe you've won a jewel.

Yeah!

Here's the purple jewel. Look at that! There you go, Isla.

Into the chest, please. Brilliant!

Right! I'm off to test Cook and Line on their pirate talk.

Cabin ho!

That's pirate talk for I'm going to the cabin.

HUMS TO HIMSELF

Right, boys, it's time for your pirate talk test.

What does ahoy mean?

Clean the windows!

Hello, cabbage!

No!

How about avast?

Shut the door!

No cabbages are allowed here.

No! Shiver me timbers?

Elephant ears!

Showbiz cabbage!

No, no, no!

In desperate situations like this, one requires the use of a song.

Listen and learn, boys.

All right then, me hearties.

You've got to win back four more jewels now in the Shipwreck Rummage.

So, to make sure we're ready to play,

let's do the Swashbuckle Salute one more time.

Let me see you marching!

Put your hands on your hearts!

-Here we go! Eye patch. AUDIENCE:

-Eye patch.

-Pirate hat. AUDIENCE:

-Pirate hat.

Swashbuckle cheer!

-AUDIENCE:

-Arrr-harrr!

Yeah! Come on!

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

could can be found. But be careful.

Cook, Line and Captain Captain have hidden the jewels well and

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

OK, my hearties. You've got to find four of my jewels now.

So, let me show you where they're hiding.

Up on the top deck we have the red jewel in one of the bird's nests.

Then on the middle deck, the green jewel in the pool of pearls.

On the lower deck, the blue jewel is in the food store and the

white jewel is over in the rope store.

-Amy and Liam, you'll go first. Which colour will you get?

-Blue!

-We're going to the food store. Are we ready to play?

-Arrr-harrr!

Then Swashbucklers away!

Four jewels to find and the first is in the food store.

Don't let those pearls put you off, Amy and Liam.

Liam's found the jewel!

Yes! They've got the blue one.

-Which colour next?

-Green!

The green one's in the pool of pearls.

Ready? Off you go! Come on, Liam!

Well done!

That's one jewel in the chest.

Three to find and Jahushen and Isla are off to the pool of pearls

to grab the green.

Go on, Jahushen! Ignore that pesky pirate.

Jump in the pool!

He's already found it!

Speedy work, Swashbucklers!

-They've got the green one. Where next?

-Red!

Right at the top. Wait for them to come back.

Come on! Quickly!

Hurry down that slide, Jahushen and Isla!

Amy and Liam need to get to the top deck.

Come on, Isla! Go, go, go!

Well done!

The green jewel is safe.

But the red is hiding in one of the bird's nests.

Watch out for flying fish, Swashbucklers!

Oh, no! The octopus arm is getting close to the chest.

Don't tell them where it is!

Yes! They've done it!

OK. Got the red one. Now the last one to collect is the white one

in the rope store.

As soon as they come back you can go.

Well done, Liam. Come on, Amy!

Faster, Amy! We're running out of time.

Come on!

Off you go!

One jewel left to find and it's in the rope store.

Jahushen isn't afraid of you, Line!

They've got the jewel! Now get back to the chest.

Come on. They've got it! Come on!

Yes! That's it!

THEY CHEER

You did it! Well done, me hearties. Brilliant!

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

Shiver me timbers! That was pirate perfection.

Liam took a shower of pearls for the blue jewel.

Jahushen jumped in for the green.

The red was nabbed from the nests and the white was whisked

away from the rope store. Five jewels back in the chest.

Well done, Swashbucklers. It's a win!

Well done, Swashbucklers! You won back all of my jewels.

So it's time to share my treasure out with you.

-There you go, Amy.

-Thank you.

-You're welcome.

-There you go, Jahushen.

-Thank you.

-That's all right. And Isla.

-Thank you.

-And there you go, Liam.

And a big cheer for my Swashbucklers.

So now we've got all five of my booty back,

you know what it's time for.

One of the naughty pirates has two walk the plank.

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

Big spin. Here we go.

Will it be Cook with the white hat,

Captain Captain with the black hat

or Line with the red bandanna?

It's Line!

So, Line, it's time for you to walk the plank!

-AUDIENCE:

-Walk the plank! Walk the plank!

Walk the plank!

Walk the plank!

Walk the plank!

THEY CHEER

Urgh!

Well, shiver me timbers.

It's good to see Line in the stinky ship's mess.

We'll see you soon for more Swashbuckle!

-ALL:

-# 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! #
