28 April On this day in 1789 the crew of HM Armed Vessel Bounty, led by Fletcher Christian, mutinied in the Friendly Islands in the South Seas, eventually settling on Pitcairn Island.

In 1985, David Essex co-wrote and starred as Fletcher Christian in the West End musical Mutiny! based on the novel Mutiny on the Bounty by Charles Nordhoff and James Norman Hall. The score produced two more hit singles, including TAHITI , his tenth Top 10 success.
