The Ship's Anchor 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're 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, 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-harr!

Well done!

CHEERING

Ahoy there, me hearties, and welcome to Swashbuckle.

Arrr-harr!

-I'm Gem and it's great to have you all aboard.

-Arrr-harr!

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

-Arrr-harr!

Great! Now, Captain Sinker is on holiday.

I wonder what she's up to.

RELAXING MUSIC PLAYS

FLY BUZZES

LAUGHTER

While Captain Sinker's on holiday lazing around,

here on the Scarlet Squid there are jewels to be found!

But Captain Captain is guarding them.

So have you seen her anywhere?

BOOING

You're booing may be loud but I can be even louder.

Cook! Line!

-BOTH:

-Yes, Captain Chief Admiral Pirate

Tremendous And Incredibly Nasty - the Third.

I've told you, call me Captain Captain for short.

-BOTH:

-Yes, Captain Captain For Short.

-What are you doing?

-We're just following this rope.

We think it might lead us to treasure.

Agggh! This treasure is so heavy!

That's not treasure, that the ship's anchor.

-The ship's what what?

-The ship's anchor.

It sinks to the bottom of the sea

and stops the ship from floating away.

But seeing as we're shipwrecked, we don't need it for that any more.

Right, find a new use for it.

-BOTH:

-But...it's...so...

..heavy!

I think Cook and Line are going to be struggling with that

for a little while

but my Swashbucklers are ready for adventure.

So, Squawk, let's meet them.

Playing today we've got Malachi!

CHEERING

Malachi is six and likes doing jigsaws.

His Swashbuckle name is Mess Mate Malachi.

-Meet Ikaluwa.

-CHEERING

Ikaluwa is also six and she loves playing with her little sister.

Her Swashbuckle name is Lookout Ikaluwa.

Next, it's Simra!

-CHEERING

-Simra is six years old.

She likes to play football and save lots of goals.

Her Swashbuckle name is Starfish Simra.

Finally, we've got Umar!

CHEERING

Umar is seven and enjoys playing with trains.

Let's hope it's a ride on the Swashbuckle Express

to victory today!

Umar's Swashbuckle name is Old Salt Umar.

Welcome aboard to newest team of Swashbucklers -

here to help me win back all of my jewels.

But I need to make sure that you're all ready for the challenge.

So let's do the Swashbuckle salute. Let me see you all marching.

Put your hand on your heart. Here we go!

-Eye patch. AUDIENCE:

-Eye patch.

-Pirate hat. AUDIENCE:

-Pirate hat.

-Swashbuckler cheer! AUDIENCE:

-Arrr-harr!

Brilliant! Now, look over here - this is our treasure chest.

When you win all of my jewels back,

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

I've got so many of these jewels they're weighing me down.

Actually, Captain Captain, they are my jewels!

-So why don't you just give them back?

-Absolutely not.

If you want them, you're going to have to win them

and you're not going to win.

Don't be so sure about that,

my Swashbuckling team are ready for adventure.

-So, Squawk, what's 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.

Good luck!

Thank you, Squawk.

Here is the barrel where you have to collect six of the soft

coconuts from the other side of the lagoon.

But look out for pesky pirates -

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.

-Boys, will you go first for me?

-Yes.

-Brilliant. Are we ready to play?

-Arrr-harr!

-Then, Swashbucklers, away!

Off you go. That's it, Malachi, jump aboard.

Pull, boys. That's it!

Well done.

That's it, boys.

Load up your coconuts and bring them back as quick as you can.

OK, well done.

Knock a coconut off, Line!

It's all right, they can't reach you.

Keep going. That's it. Collect your coconuts and swap with the girls.

Off you go, girls. Take your time. Line it up.

Oh, it bounced off. Try again.

Never mind. Good try.

Try again. Oh, a bit too far.

Try again. Ready?

It bounced off the edge again. Never mind.

Come on, girls, we need those coconuts.

Ready, Malachi? Are you ready to swap over?

Come on, girls! Keep pulling!

Come on! That's it.

Brilliant. Well done.

Collect your coconuts and swap over.

We're halfway now, team.

Take your time, line it up. Big throw.

So close. Try again.

Yay! Good girl.

Your turn. Oh, try again. Ready?

Yes! We've got two in. Well done, girls.

I'm going to anchor in these pirates.

I've got the pirates! They can't go!

Gem, you are not an anchor.

Naughty pirates!

Swap over, girls. Ready, boys?

OK, Malachi. A big throw.

Yes! Well done.

Let me take one for you.

Big throw.

Can we make it five?

Not quite.

Come on, girls, we're running out of time!

Ten, nine...

Seven, six... Quick! Five...

Have a quick throw!

Have a quick throw! Try again! Try again.

BELL RINGS

Ohhh! Squawk, that was so close.

You had the bird's-eye view. Over to you.

Coconuts-a-go-go!

That was a close one.

The Swashbucklers sunk lots of coconuts but there were

still two to get when the countdown started.

So the girls powered across the lagoon and threw the last two in

right on the bell!

So, Gem, it's a win!

It was so close but we did it. Well done, Simra!

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

-AUDIENCE:

-Send down a jewel!

Yes, I know the rule. No need to shout about it.

Here, have your jewel and stop making such a fuss.

CHEERING

Yes! We worked hard to get this one.

There you go, Simra, into the chest, please.

Brilliant! Well done!

So we only made four more of those sparkly-sparkly jewels

and one of the naughty pirates will have to walk the plank

-into the smelly ship's mess.

-Eugh!

Have you two found a use for that anchor yet?

We decided I'd slop out and Line would find a use for the anchor.

BANGING

That's either Line or a really big mouse.

I've got the...anchor...

I can't...

too...heavy.

-Well, put it down, then.

-OK.

Agggh!

Agggh!

I found a use for the anchor, Captain!

It makes Cook slop out twice as fast.

Hop to it, boys, I want as much slop as possible in there and then

one of you naughty pirates will have to walk into it later.

Squawk, let's play the next game.

The second game is...

The aim of the game is to knock over all ten targets.

All you have to do is collect the soft green cannonballs,

load them in the cannons and fire them.

But be careful!

Cook and Line will be sneaky and try to stop you!

-CHEERING

-Have fun!

Thanks, Squawk, and here's the green squishy ball

you need to find to play the game, not the yellow and the blue ones

that Cook and Line put in there to try and confuse you.

Cook and Line will also be over there trying to put you off.

Malachi and Simra, you're going to collect the balls for me.

Let me start you off with those ones there.

-OK, Swashbucklers, are we ready to play?

-Arrr-harr!

Then, Swashbucklers, away! BELL RINGS

There we go. Let's get those balls over.

Let's cheer them on, everyone. CHEERING

We've got ten to knock down.

Are you all right?!

You got Cook in the head, Umar!

Over here, Swashbucklers!

Let's do nine more of those.

Oh, no!

Line it up. Ready? Line it up.

Let's shoot.

Another one. Get another one. That's it.

Keep going!

We've still got eight more to knock down.

Hello, dolphin!

OK, off we go.

And again. We've still got seven to knock down.

Look at those silly pirates!

Ready?

Push it in. That's it.

Nearly!

Keep going, guys. You're doing really well.

Look out for those pesky pirates.

Stop shooting at me!

Ahh! Oh...

We're running out of time.

Oh! Come on, try again!

CHEERING

OK, we've got six more to go.

Oh, nearly! Keep going.

We're running out of time. The last ten seconds.

Ten, nine, eight,

seven, six, five,

four, three, two...

We got one!

We got one but it wasn't quite enough.

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

Anchors aweigh!

The Swashbucklers quickly toppled two targets but then fired

a cannonball straight through Line's rubber ring.

At last more targets fell but it wasn't enough.

Sorry, Gem, it's a lose.

Oh, Swashbucklers, don't worry,

there's still time to win that jewel back a little bit later.

WHISTLE BLOWS

Here, Gem, this is for you.

BOOING

What is this, Captain Captain?

Eugh!

An old anchor?!

Yes, well, anchors sink to the bottom of the sea

and I tell you what else is sinking...

your chances of winning!

I wouldn't be so sure about that, Captain Captain.

I've got confidence in my Swashbucklers.

We're going to win all the jewels back and one of you

naughty pirates will walk the plank into the stinky ships mess.

Not going to happen. I'm off to see if Cook and Line have found

a new use for the anchor.

BOOING

This anchor is too heavy to use for anything.

I know, we could use it as a back scratcher. Give it to me.

Agggh!

Oh, the relief!

-I'm OK!

-Remember the part where I said the anchor was too heavy

-to use for anything?

-I do now.

Help me lift it up onto the table.

-Agggh!

-Wait...!

-Have you got it?

-No, wait.

OK, now, this way! This way. Turn it round.

-I don't know which way you're going.

-The other way.

-This way.

You take it for now. What way?

-You take it.

-Ohh! I've got it.

I've got it...

BANGING

-I don't got it.

-Well, it can't stay there!

Yeah, it's blocking the door.

That's it! If it blocks the door, it'll stop other pirates coming in

-and stealing the captain's treasure.

-That's brilliant!

KNOCK AT DOOR

That must be a pirate trying to get in now.

The anchor door-blocker is working.

It's me! Open this door immediately!

Erm... We can't right now - there's a massive anchor in the way.

-So move it!

-OK, bye.

-Ohh!

-Agggh!

Right, wait...

Whoa! Whoa! Put it down.

Please tell me you came up with a better use for the anchor

-than a door-blocker?

-I used it as a back scratcher.

Yes, and I can guess how that ended.

It didn't work.

Right, if you can't find a use for it, it's going overboard.

-BOTH:

-Wow!

-Captain, you're so strong!

-Have you been working out?

-Yes, maybe a little bit.

Look, I found the end of a rope.

Oh, dear!

Aggh! I'm OK again!

It looks like there was a use for the anchor after all.

Yes, giving Line a bath!

LAUGHTER

CHEERING

OK, Swashbucklers, you have to find four of my jewels now to make

sure one of those naughty pirates walks the plank.

To get you ready for the Shipwreck Rummage, let's do

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

Put your hand on your heart. Here we go!

-Eye patch. AUDIENCE:

-Eye patch.

-Pirate hat. AUDIENCE:

-Pirate hat.

-Swashbuckler cheer. AUDIENCE:

-Arrr-harr!

Arrr-harr! We're ready.

It's...

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 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.

CHEERING

OK, me hearties, you have to find four of my jewels

on the shipwreck. Let me show you where they're hiding.

On the top deck we have the purple jewel in one of the nests,

then on the middle deck we have the red jewel

in the crates of rats and mice.

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

and the white jewel is over by the cannonballs.

-You're going first for me.

-Yeah.

-Which colour will you go for?

-Red.

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

-Arrr-harr!

Then, Swashbucklers, away!

BELL RINGS

It's a four-jewel rummage and

Ikaluwa and Malachi are heading for the red jewel

in the rats and mice.

Oh, no! Line is tipping the fish.

Come on, Swashbuckler.

But it's not slowing Malachi down,

he's already at the rats and mice.

Cook isn't making it easy.

You can do it, Swashbucklers!

I wonder where it is!

I'm going to find it first!

Oh, no, you're not, Cook, Ikaluwa has got it!

OK, they've got the red one. Where are you going next?

-BOTH:

-For the blue one.

-OK, wait for them to come back.

Quick as you can!

Ready, and off you go. Well done!

Umar and Simra are off and it's raining pearls!

The red jewel is in the chest.

Three for jewels to get!

Simra and Umar are at the food store

and digging deep for the blue jewel.

Simra's got it!

Which one will you go for? The white one? OK.

Wait for them to come back.

That's it! Ready? Off you go.

Well done. Brilliant.

Pop it in the chest for me here. Well done.

That's the blue jewel safely in the chest.

Just two more to get.

Cook is pouring those pearls!

Don't let him slow you down.

The octopus is getting closer to the chest!

We need to find that jewel.

You can do it, Swashbucklers!

OK, they've found the white one.

We're going for the purple one!

The purple one, OK.

Ready, off you go! Go, go, go!

The white jewel is home. Only one more jewel to get.

It's the purple one right at the top of the ship

but we're running out of time!

Fish are flying...

Now beach bars are flying!

Come on, Swashbucklers, keep going!

-AUDIENCE:

-Six, five,

four, three, two, one!

BELL RINGS

Oh, Swashbucklers, time is up. Come back down for us.

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

A rascal of a rummage.

The Swashbucklers made a great start digging deep for the red jewel.

Then an easy bag of the blue in the food store.

Cook slowed them down in the cannonballs

and Line through all of the beach balls in their way.

Sadly, there was still one jewel to get when the bell rang.

Sorry, Gem, it's a lose.

Oh, Swashbucklers, we didn't manage to get all the jewels back today.

Never mind. So I have to close the treasure chest

and those naughty pirates will not have to walk the plank today.

-But have you had lots of fun?

-Yeah!

Let's hear it for my Swashbucklers!

CHEERING

Well done, Cook and Line!

None of us have to walk the plank

and jump into the yucky-yucky ship's mess.

Look at this beauty! Can you see it sparkling in my eyes?

Can I have a hold, please, Captain?

-Absolutely not. No, no.

-What about me, Captain?

Oh, dear! I don't think this is going to end well, is it?!

-Can I have a hold?

-No, you can't reach it! I've got it.

-Oh!

-Where's it gone?

-Huh!

-Ohh!

Oh, Cook, you're going to have to drop like an anchor

into the ship's mess to get my jewel back now!

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! AUDIENCE:

-Arrr-harr!
