Zorro in the Court of England ( Franco Montemurro, 1969)
They seek him there, they seek him there, they seek the mysterious masked hero everywhere - but they will never find him thanks to his cunning use of a luxurious moustache!
We've reached the final film in our Rapiers and Ruffles season, and the good news is that you can find Zorro in the Court of England on YouTube with excellent English subtitles, if you need them.

Zenabel (Ruggero Deodato, 1969)
Wild, Wild Podcast have jumped forwards in time from the safe, family-friendly adventures of the early 1960s to the hedonistic, anything goes year of 1969 to meet Zenabel, sometimes known as "The Naked General." Here we reach almost the end of our Rapiers and Ruffles season, and also perhaps Rod's tether, with this Italian sex comedy from the director of House at the Edge of the Park, Phantom of Death and Live Like a Cop, Die Like a Man.

Zorro and the Three Musketeers (Luigi Capuano, 1963)
What is Zorro doing in Spain, thousands of miles away from home? Why are they called the Three Musketeers when there's actually four of them? Why does the King of Spain sound like he was voiced by Paul Frees? Some of these questions may or may not get answered in this thrilling installment of Wild, Wild Podcast!

The Invincible Masked Rider (L'invincibile cavaliere mascherato, Umberto Lenzi, 1963)
Who is that mysterious masked hero? Sarge? No. Rosemary, the telephone operator? No. Penry, the mild-mannered janitor? Could be! Then again, it could also be Robin Hood, so don't be too sure.
Join us once again as we huddle together inside the nearest large castle for protection against the plague whilst doing our best to unmask the eponymous hero. We also discuss Weird Worcester, the UK's newest and best Italian-themed festival where Adrian had the time of his life as a disappointing Italian translator.
