Format

The show takes place on the site of the shipwreck of the Scarlet Squid, in which three "naughty pirates" − Captain Sinker/Captain Captain/Captain HeyHo and her hapless shipmates Cook and Line – have stolen and hidden Gem's five jewels. Four children challenge 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, either 5, 4 or 3 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 with three sections (four in series 5-6) is spun to determine which of the three pirates (or all of them, in series 5-6) must walk the plank into the gunge-filled Ship's Mess. If the arrow lands in the middle then the swashbucklers must send both naughty pirates in.[2]

Every time the swashbucklers win a game, one of Gem's jewels are sent down. If the Swashbucklers lose the second game, Gem will receive a different item from Captain Sinker/Captain Captain/Captain HeyHo, usually an old worthless item. From series 6 onwards, if the swashbucklers fail in all three challenges, they also retrieve a fake jewel from Cook and Line as a consolation prize.
