First broadcast: on CBeebiesLatest broadcast: on CBeebies HD

Leon and Gogo Thabby go on a journey of discovery to find out what life was like for a child living as a servant boy in a grand castle, over 300 years ago.

Leon and Gogo Thabby dress up in fancy clothes and Thabby takes them to a special place to learn about a boy called Scipio, who came to Scotland from Africa. Together, they find out about the jobs Scipio would have done in the castle, the food he would have eaten, the music he would have heard and the new skills he learned.
