- Synopsis:
"Space Pirates" was commissioned for the BBC's CBeebies channel. The space ship Guisto is led by Captain DJ, who is very vain and stupid. It orbits planet Earth searching for music for the radio show, Guisto Radio. The tenuous storyline in each episode usually involves two space-wise kids, Honk and Tonk, who are played by children. They trick Captain DJ and/or Lippy by selling him something worthless for lots of doubloons or junk food. Lippy is a cheeky microphone who often makes fun of Captain DJ. Captain DJ's real name is occasionally revealed (it is "Leslie"). Also featured is a newsreader/weather forecaster/traffic reporter, Zorst, who is an alien barnacle who clings to the stern of the ship (near the exhaust, hence his name). He always ends his reports with bad jokes. There are three musical acts per episode, one performed live on set (or specially recorded), one pop-video, and one cover song by puppet rats called The Jingles - Windy, Stringy and Brassy. A group of children on Earth, the Pirate Posse, get to vote on which song was the best and who they want to hear again, which plays out the show. - Actors:
