I don't know what exactly it is, but a jib is something to do with old-fashioned sailing boats. A sail, maybe? I should know this, given the amount of Patrick O'Brian I read, but I usually just skip all the boring technical ship stuff and focus on Jack being a great big manwhore.
Plunkett and Macleane is a movie about these two ne'er-do-wells, played by JLM and Robert Carlyle, who turn to highway robbery as a means of support and attain modest celebrity among ladies of fashion and tangle with evil Thief Taker Ken Stott and have adventures and OMG Alan Cumming is in it as the Earl of Rochester and it's just way, way too awesome. Forget renting it; it needs to be a permanent addition to anyone's DVD collection. And JLM doesn't have his actual accent, on account of it being a period drama and him playing a down-on-his-luck aristocrat, but it is English, and very sexy too.
