film of the week: Muppet Treasure Island
We all know that Secrets and Lies is the new hot ticket, but think of the kids will you? And anyway, there's as much for you to enjoy in the Muppets' fifth outing (right) - notably, dotty cameos from Tim Curry, Jennifer Saunders (complete with daft accent and crab's shuffle) and Billy Connolly, whose death-bed scene is the picture's highlight. The ex-beatnik puppets have been away for years, but this proves that there's life in the old frog yet.
