About this product
Product Information
Bob Hoskins stars in this charming high seas adventure as Captain Jack, a tough, aging seaman whose travels are now restricted to ferrying tourists around Whitby Bay. Fed up with his now staid life, Jack to decides to retrace the steps of his hero, Captain Scorseby, who sailed from England to Jan Mayen Island in the Arctic in 1791. Assembling a rag tag crew with absolutely no experience, Captain Jack sets out on a potentially dangerous 1,300 mile voyage, sponsored by a fish & chip house, to place a plaque commemorating Scoresby's voyage on the island. Along the way, the crew get to know each other and the irascible Captain Jack, fend off polar bears, and evade NATO as they try to revive the spirit of a long dead adventurer.Product Identifiers

Perfect for a hero
This is the DVD of a film made in Whitby some years ago now. I have had copies before. It is special to me because I was in the film. At my home I went to find it but the case was empty. I immediately went on to eBay and my replacement and new copy arrived swiftly still in its unopened DVD case.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
