Bold- Direction
Numberjack Three was pretending to be Numberjack Seven.
Three: Talking like Numberjack Seven... I am Numberjack Seven! Now I should start painting!
Numberjack Four comes into the Cosy Room and finds Three.
Four: Hello Three, what are you painting?
Three: Speaking like Numberjack Seven...Four, I am not Three. I am Seven and I am painting the seven colours of the rainbow.
Four looked at Three again.
Four: Are you sure? Your body is a Three not Seven.
Three: Speaking in her normal voice again..I am pretending to be Numberjack Seven. I want to be a big Numberjack.
Four laughs.
Four: Okay then. I will pretend to be Numberjack Eight...Speaking like Numberjack Eight...I got a big mission to go on.
Three laughs
Three: Oh, good luck Eight!
Suddenly the alarm goes.
Five: We got a problem!
Agent Thirty Six rings in.
Agent Thirty Six: Things are going wrong.
The Numberjacks look suspicious at Agent Thirty Six.
Three: Laughing...But not for long, wait....I think you are too old to be an agent.
Agent Thirty Six: Please don't say that. I am mixed up with the normal agents. All of them are doing what adults do and the adults are being agents as children.
Six: This is a problem. I feel bad for you, I think I should go. The Numberjacks are on their way!
The song 'Who's going out there?' is being played.
Four: Checking the room...All clear.
There was a countdown.
Three, Four and Five: Six, Five, Four, Three, Two One, Zero!
Four: Controlling the screen... Looking for a Six and found one.
Six sees the normal Agent Thirty Six cooking instead of the adult.
Agent Thirty Six: I am the mother of the normal Agent Thirty Six. I should be cooking lunch for her.
Five: She seems to be struggling, because she is too young to cook.
Another agent calling in. It was Agent Forty Eight.
Three: You don't look like a suitable Agent at all! You are too old as well!
Agent Forty Eight: Please don't be mean to me. I am not supposed to be doing this, I should be teaching the children, but look at what the normal Agent Forty Eight is doing.
Normal Agent Forty Eight is standing in front of adults, looking baffled.
Five: Six, you need to check the school.
Six: I am on my way.
Six sees that there are so many adults sitting down and feeling uncomfortable with the chairs as they are too small for them to sit down.
Six: We know the problem, but what is happening?!
Four: Zooming in the screen to have a closer look of normal Agent Forty Eight... It's a blob of slime. I know where this is from...
Three: The Problem Blob....Ahhhh
Six: How about the normal Agent Thirty Six??
Four: Scans normal Agent Thirty Six on screen...She is blobbed too!
Four puts the data on screen about the Problem Blob.
Five: So he is the one that swapped the normal agents and the grown ups. Where are all the children that are supposed to be learning?
Another agent calls in. Finally, it was a normal agent.
Unaffected Agent: I am not affected but the children are thinking they are adults going to work, look. They are all finding it difficult to keep up with it!! The school children and adults are blobbed too.
Three: I think Agent Forty Eight and Agent Thirty Six are blobbed too!
Six: Oh yes, you need to send some Brain Gain!
Three puts on the Brain Gain. The Brain Gain song is played.
Three: Jumping and chanting over and over again... Adults are at work, children are at school...adults are at work, children are at school...
Six uses the Brain Gain power to swap the school children and working adults.
The unaffected agent rings in again.
Unaffected Agent: How about the poor agents that are adults?
Three: Remembering...Yes, normal agent Thirty Six and Forty Eight back to where they are supposed to be...
She was hopping in the Brain Gain again.
Six: Using Brain Gain Power to fix the agents...Everything back to normal. But, one more thing...we need to deal with the Problem Blob.
Five: What should we do? Let's call the agents.
An agent rings in.
Normal Agent Thirty Six: Hello it's me again. Make the Problem Blob younger.
Normal Agent Forty Eight: Make him smaller.
Five: Welcome back you two, glad you are alright! Three, make the Problem Blob younger and smaller!
Three: Again and again...Problem Blob younger and smaller, Problem Blob younger and smaller...
The Problem Blob got smaller and younger until he was gone.
Everyone: Hooray!!
Six flies back home.
Three, Four and Five: One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six!
Five: Well done Six!
The Numberjacks were seeing what had happened all on screen.
Back again, Three and Four were pretending to be Seven and Eight.
Seven came to see Three.
Three: Hello Seven. I was pretending to be you. Talking like Seven... I am painting the seven colours of the rainbow. Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet.
Seven laughs.
Seven: Lovely work, Seven!
Eight just arrived to see Four.
Four: Oh look, there's Eight. Hello Eight, I was pretending to be you. Talking like Eight...I got a big mission to go to...
Eight laughs.
Eight: Good luck, Eight!
The Numberjacks all laugh.
Challenge (given by Seven): What things are more suitable for children to do and what things are more suitable for adults to do? Find out and call the Numberjacks.

De TodoNumberjacks was my favourite childhood TV Programme. It is a very cute children's programme with talking numbers from 0-9 that live in an ordinary sofa and five meanies who cause mathematical problems in the real world. Numberjacks 0-2 are too young...
