A replica?

Of what?

The Ship??

Oh, of course. It was rented for the filming.

Well, you may not realize it but your looking at the remains of what was once a very handsome woman!

As far as I am aware, there are at least two Golden Hinde replicas in England, which be why I is saying that there is a lot of them. Obviously the ship you was talking about is a replica, and I was daft and unthinking with me wording.

See the version of "Treasure Island" with Charlton Heston as Long John. It is the most faithful to the book, the running musket fights through the woods are convincing, the music by the Chieftains is wonderfully evocative, and, above all, Heston very wisely doesn't try to outdo Robert Newton's definitive portrayal of Long John in the Disney TI. It's a sterling effort. Plus, Jim Hawkins isn't a dewy-eyed ingenue as in other adaptations. He's a tough little guttersnipe. But, the sailors do eye him with a certain, shall we say, affection.
