Fellow Swashbucklers,

anyone with the 2-disc set care to comment on the quality of this gay adventure?

Yours Cavalierly,

I can remember watching that as a kid and also the really excellent black and white (dubbed from French I think) serialisation of Robinson Crusoe with the music that Art Of Noise (I think) later did a version of. Oh yes and Zorro and Ali Baba. :)

The quality is suprisingly good considering it's age.

There are a few white flecks occasionally, and the colours can look a liitle washed out, except for chapter 12 which is a lot better colour wise, but is also the only episode not dubbed into English, so maybe it comes from different film stock?

You've got to fight for what is right,
And all that you believe.
It's right to fight for what is right,
And live the life you lead.

For truth and love and happiness......blah,blah,blah

That is very sad ... knowing the theme tune I mean (not the words).

But then again .....

One for all and all for one
Muskahounds are always ready
One for all and all for one
Helping everybody .... blah,blah,blah

:D

Remember this from school holidays end of the 60's beginning of the 70's but never got to see all episodes.However after months of waiting the set turned up from amazon a few weeks ago.For such an old series the quality of sound and picture.No extras but if you remember the series with fondness you won't be disappointed with this set.For some reason the last episode is in the original french with english subtitles who cares-great series.
