Ali Baba
Serpent Tina and her Ferocious Forty are ravaging the kingdom and no-one is safe! They are also on the hunt for Morgiana, their runaway slave girl. Meeting her in the woods, Ali Baba tries to help her evade their clutches and somehow regain her memory. At the same time, since his daughter was kidnapped by bandits when she was a baby, the Sultan must declare a new heir to take his place after he retires. Ali‘s brother, the devious Dr Anaġġ, is doing all he can to make sure that he’s the one to take the crown. Will good triumph over evil? And will Ali Baba ever manage to do anything without his mother’s help?
