The old film set at Popeye's village is being used for the shooting of a feature film, 'Pirate Pete'.
More than 70 productions have been shot in Malta over the past four years, leaving in excess of €110 million in the economy, the Finance Ministry said.

Captain "Blackbeard"Fenech was probably looking for gold in the treasure chest to plunder so we can "loan" more to Greece or any one else who asks-just another Piirate of the Mediterannean
