I mean let's not kid ourselves, the swashing and the buckling and the fact that there MUST be bad guys means that there's going to be a body count - but let's face it. Here we are in Telanovela-land so it's going to be less gruesome that Star Trek.
Which - ya' know what? It's fun sometimes to just escape into the past and only be confronted with sherry in pretty glasses, questions about what someone's social class is based on whether or not they are wearing anything on their head, and mysteries about cuff-links.
But with horses and dramatic pauses.
And that - thank you very much is what this delivers.
Deadly plots - or are they?
Intrepid newspaper reporters -
And just how many languages were spoken in Alta California before it became a part if the USA (the answer is: probobly about the same number as now - lots)
It's the end of Season 1 of Zorro. So much fun, lets do it again!
As always - you can reach us on the internets.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
