The Magnificent Five

Episode 2 of 6

The Questers must help a village protect itself from the evil bandit king El Maldado. Stars Stephen Mangan. From February 2013.

Whilst waiting for news on the whereabouts of the Sword of Asnagar, the Questers stop a pub brawl.

But in doing so, they attract the attention of some villagers from the small village of Mexigaroth who are being terrorised by an evil bandit, who goes by the name of "El Maldado".

Never ones to stand by when a wrong can be righted, the Questers promise to help the villagers defeat El Maldado and his hordes.

Meanwhile, Lord Darkness has to make a presentation for an assembly of the Dark Lords. Pretty routine stuff, surely...?

Fantasy-based sitcom set in Lower Earth written by Anil Gupta and Richard Pinto.
