In Search of the Castaways

BBC One
on BBC One London

Walt Disney's classic adventure film starring Hayley Mills, Maurice Chevalier, George Sanders and Wilfrid Hyde White
Thrills abound as earthquake, hurricane, fire and flood beset the voyagers in search of Captain Grant. Hayley Mills is perfect as the dauntless daughter in this colourful version of Jules Verne's tale for children of all ages.
HAYLEY MILLS tells RADIO TIMES:
'There were more special effects in that film than any other I have done for Disney. I'm looking forward to seeing it again.'
Screenplay by Lowell S. Hawley based on Captain Grant's Children by JULES VERNE
Films: p 105 (First showing on British television)
