MUPPET TREASURE ISLAND:
Yo–ho–ho! Cast off for hilarious high–seas adventure with all your favourite Muppets in this swashbuckling send–up of Robert Louis Stevenson's immortal tale! The fun begins when young Jim Hawkins, with pals Gonzo, Rizzo and notorious one–legged pirate Long John Silver (Tim Curry) board a rickety ship on a quest for buried treasure. Commanded by the dashing Captain Smollet (Kermit) and his all–Muppet crew, the motley bunch sails for a remote island.
There, Silver and his mutinous clan of cut–throats kidnap young Jim and his treasure map! Although Smollet stages a heroic rescue, he's no match for the island queen of the warthogs – none other than his scorned lost love Benjamina Gunn (Miss Piggy). Wide critical acclaim, dazzling musical numbers and irreverent madcap humour make Muppet Treasure Island a richly entertaining film for all the family.

* BACKSTAGE DISNEY: Pepe Profiles Present - Fozzie Bear: A Long Day's Journey Into Nightclubs: Join Pepe the King Prawn as we profile the life of Fozzie Bear. This irreverent mockumentary features interviews with Piggy, Fozzie, Gonzo, and the entire Muppet gang. It is an appreciation of the most persevering -- if not the funniest -- bear in show business. In trying to realize his dream of being the funniest stand-up comic bear in show business, Fozzie has faced every obstacle (e.g. his lousy comedy material, a hostile audience and, of course, Statler & Waldorf, those two old guys in the balcony). What keeps Fozzie going? A tale of triumph...or at least of unwillingness to admit defeat.
