Swashbuckle CBeebies aimed at young children which started airing on 6 July 2013.[1] [2] game show where children control a group of pirates. The show is one of CBeebies's most watched shows.[3] British Academy Children's Awards for Entertainment and was nominated in 2018.
Format The show takes place on the site of the shipwreck of the Scarlet Squid, in which three "naughty pirates" – a captain and her hapless shipmates – have stolen and hidden Gem's five jewels. Four children (known as Swashbucklers ) compete in a series of games to try to win back the jewels, under the watchful eye of the ship's parrot Squawk. After two games, any remaining jewels are hunted against the clock as the children try to find them hidden within the shipwreck. If the children successfully retrieve all of the jewels then a wheel is spun to determine which of the three pirates must walk the plank into the gunge-filled Ship's Mess.[1]
