    After the sinking of the ship "Mary Jane", some passengers have survived on an island, they are: the Lindberg family, the young Englishwoman Caty, Sergeant Holt, a boy named David and Billy, who worked as a seaman. David must still cope with the fact that his parents didn't survive the accident . Sergeant Billy Holt believes he has recognized Irving as a former convict and suspects him of committing some crimes. Nevertheless, they are all mutually dependent. Together the survivors look forward to be rescued.

    Castaway From 1974 and set in the 1880's.

    It would have been the type of program that I would have watched but I don't recollect it.
    If I did see it, it would have been well before the Den.

    I remember seeing at some point all right it may well have been on the Den as it would have been the late 80's and I remember thinking that it looked very 70's.
