The Wiggles: Sailing Around the World is a trip made unbearable by the overbearing presence of Captain Feathersword, the would-be comic relief played by Paul Paddick. Feathersword and his awful pirate crew get the majority of screen time here, linking songs about various locales around the globe, mostly performed by the Wiggles, and unfortunately also by the Captain, whose shrill caterwauling is most painful to the ear.

Whatever educational value this video may contain is undermined by the Captain's idiotic interludes. Yes, the Wiggles are singing about different cultures, but in a simplistic and patronizing way. Not that your kids will care. They'll just fidget a bit more during the comedy bits.

I'd say this video is only for the most dedicated Wiggles fan, but I'd have to narrow that down to only the fans of the tiresome antics of Captain Feathersword and his lame crew.

Available on DVD from Hit Entertainment
