The Jolly Sailor is a pirate comedy drama for teenagers. It is based around a group of friends known as the Posse, and among them is William who is, to say the least, not the adventurous type. You could say he had had a sheltered life because that is how his father, a customs officer, had it arranged. If he had known that his mother was Gracie O'Donnell - the Pirate Queen - his life might have been very different. On a trip to France to pick up documents, William is kidnapped by the Cornish Captain Rumtug and his daughter, Martha May.

A personal insight in to the life of John Keats, his thoughts, his friends, where was his life going?...his poetry said it all. He was a hothead, short to temper, but so completely focused on becoming a poet, he had a vision, an image of himself. Fashion mattered, frilly cuffs mattered and he was prepared for fisticuffs on the streets or a brawl at the local theatre. His time in Devon was the summer in his life for the most part - though it rained most of the time. His brother and the girls from the shop across the way, were young, free, and so enjoying their precious time together.
