along with king of the rocket men and this be still be repeat on bbc tv in the early to mid eighty . if i be load up a time capsule of this period both these series would definitely go in . someone watch it for the first time will think it be silly but this be one of the best example of the serial . don del oro will make you laugh ( when i be little my nickname for him be mr dustbin head ) and it be funny upon be shoot at he say your bullet can not harm me then he stumble back and seemingly less than happy . i also like the way he dispense with sebastian in the first episode . i watch this again because i have good memory of it from year back and there be some good stunt and good music and it have the ingredient you expect include water and rockfalls and runaway cart . apart from the first episode ( with ralph faulkner ) the swordplay wasn not nearly as good a i remember it and and yes it feature the inevitable flashback episode . it get positive because it still suffer from slow pace and padding and the other trick . if you be interested in these serial i recommend the book by william witney and in a door and into a fight and out a door and into a chase although there be only a small entry about this series in it .
