Johnny Depp surprised schoolchildren when he made an appearance in their school dressed as his character Captain Jack Sparrow from the Pirates of the Caribbean series.
Depp turned up after receiving a letter from a nine-year-old student who sought his help raising a mutiny against her teachers at Meridian Primary School in Greencwich, south-east London.
Beatrice Delap wrote in the letter "We are a bunch of budding young pirates and we're having trouble mutinying against the teachers! We'd love it if you could come and help!"
Depp visited the school and spent 15 minutes performing pirate songs and dancing in front of the other students with four other cast members from the new movie 'Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides'. The actor is currently filming the movie in the nearby Old Naval College.
Beatrice said afterwards: "He pulled the letter out of his pocket and said he was going to frame it."
The school website said "Alas, there was no walking the planks or adventures on the high seas but we all had a lesson on how to clean our teeth, the pirate way.
"There was too much excitement to think about taking over the school, so instead, the children all sang their own pirate song to great applause. Captain Jack even danced along."
