An attempt to do an ARABIAN NIGHTS-style storyline on a tiny kid's TV show budget. Dodgy FX aside, this at least has plenty going on, although not much of it is particularly endearing and it's a little too cheesy to work properly.

An interesting concept but unfortunately appears very dated

Warning: Spoilers
This episode has grand concepts. Whilst not new ideas, it attempts to tell a rather grand epic tale. Unfortunately given the budget constraints and the time limitation of 24 mins it all becomes too constricted. The acting is interesting, and there are touches of 'The thief of Baghdad' and 'Lord of the Rings'. One of the sad things is that the effects now make it look extremely dated. It must have been interesting for children at the time, but just seems outdated now.
