Meanwhile, there are the girls of St. Trinity who are searching for the buried treasure after Miss Freeton discovered that she was having a relationship with the pirates at those moments.

It's another panto for 10-year-old girls, in which any given scene could - with only the addition of canned laughter - pass for something from children's television.
