A 4Learning show designed to teach mathematics. Leather-clad panto villain "Bad Man" has locked up a bunch of kids in a mansion and forces them to play maths games in order to earn their release, because in the Maths Mansion, "there's no leaving without learning". The games are mostly fairly rudimentary computer games, but the show is considerably enlivened by Chris Jarvis' dual performance as the villain/host "Bad Man" and ineffectual maths geek "Sad Man".
