Enid Blyton'S The Famous Five - Five On Treasure Island (DVD)

Five on a Treasure Island (1957), adapted from Enid Blyton's perennially popular first Famous Five novel, is a ripping adventure tale for kids and adults alike, presented in eight exciting installments. Close to the spirit of the book, this Children's Film Foundation serial is full of adventure, mystery and lashings of ginger ale. The author herself helped to cast the film which follows the celebrated gang as they investigate strange goings-on at Kirrin Castle. Will the intrepid Five manage to foil dastardly antique shop owner Luke Undown's desperate attempt to steal Kirrin's treasure from under Uncle Quentin's nose? With enthusiastic and memorable performances from the well cast young actors this is a delightful serial which no Famous Five fan will want to be without.
