Synopsis

Everybody wants a drink now so Bradley and Fiz deliver orange and apple drinks to alternate cabins. Baby Bunting tries to help in the Galley with Flo but breaks all the dishes. Flo starts to get complaints about noisy neighbors from cabins two, four and six. As they predict, the next complaint comes from cabin number eight. It seems that all the passengers in the odd numbered cabins, to whom Bradley delivered an orange drink are now behaving very oddly. It becomes clear that's what has caused the problems when Bradley has some orange and starts dancing on the table.

Production notes

The sixty Number Crew programmes bring maths to life for 5 to 7 year olds, providing an entertaining and imaginative world for children to enjoy and explore maths. The action takes place aboard an unusual cruise ship, the SS Mathematical, where the human crew do their best to look after a collection of animal passengers.

In each programme the crew encounter a mathematical problem. Viewers are encouraged to join the Number Crew in learning the mental strategies and skills they need to solve the problem. A rich mixture of 3-D and 2-D animation, story, song, spectacular studio sequences and real life images combine to make a very successful and popular series.
