Return to Treasure Island (TV series) producer Patrick Dromgoole would go on to helm "Treasure Island". Their expertise in making these productions was used when Disney chose to work with HTV to produce a series, in 10 parts. The story begins 10 years after the original Treasure Island adventure. Jim Hawkins returns home to The Admiral Benbow Inn after graduating at Oxford University. His mother has laid on a surprise party, including as guests his old friends, Squire Trelawney, Dr Livesey, Captain Smollett and Ben Gunn. At the same time, a small rowing boat is beached at night with its only occupant, Long John Silver. Trelawney
Pirates of Treasure Island captain, Hawkins and Dr. Livesey so that all of the treasure will belong to the pirates. However, Hawkins is discovered, along with Anne Bonny (Rebekah Kochan), who had followed Jim from the inn, and gives him protection from Long John. On reaching Skeleton Island, the "Hispanola" is hijacked by Silver, with Smollette, Livesey and an American government official on the voyage kept prisoner on the ship whilst the others go ashore. With the help of marooned mariner Ben Gunn (Leigh Scott), Jim and Anne Bonney escape, and race to beat Long John and the pirates to the treasure. The Nerd
