Send us Fan MailBases on nGulliver's travels! Captain Barnacle Bones is a pirate who loves a loud, confident, and unbelievably boastful boast! While steering his ship, The Scurvy Dog, he brags to his cook, Jolly Jane, that he can outwit any wave in the ocean. But a magical storm filled with green and purple lightning proves him wrong, washing him completely overboard into the cold, raging sea!When the captain wakes up, he finds himself on a strange beach, tied down by hundreds of tiny ropes made of tough nettle-fibre. He has landed in the Nettlewood, home to the tiny, thumb-sized Nettle-Goblins! These fierce little soldiers are locked in a "tremendous war" with a neighboring tribe called the Bog-Hoppers over a very silly rule: the proper way to eat a Glimmer-worm!To win back his freedom, his parrot Periwinkle, and his extravagant hat, Captain Barnacle Bones strikes a bargain to help them:The Giant Pirate: For the tiny goblins, the captain is a massive Man-Mountain! He easily scoops up the entire enemy fleet of canoes and puts them right into his coat pocket.The Mushroom Feast: Hailed as a hero, the captain celebrates by greedily eating their entire winter-store of mushrooms and beetle-berries, causing the worried goblins to plot a trap to disable their giant, hungry guest!Realizing he has outstayed his welcome, the captain sneaks away on a raft at dawn, only to get sucked into a powerful whirlpool. When he wakes up this time, the world has completely flipped! The blades of grass are like towering trees—Captain Barnacle Bones has shrunk, and a colossal Titan Child picks him up like a little doll!Placed inside a massive dollhouse, the tiny pirate faces his greatest, most "shrunk-down" challenges, from fending off a giant slobbering puppy to fighting a wasp the size of an eagle with his tiny cutlass! Thankfully, the child's wise Mother realizes he belongs on the sea and helps him spot The Scurvy Dog through a giant telescope. Placed gently back onto his deck, the captain proudly tells his crew that he has "tamed the titans," proving that no matter how big or small you are, a true pirate always finds his way home!Support the show
