I couldn't work out when this was supposed to be set, because it contained such a weird selection of artifacts and weapons.
Apart from the magical machine gun on a little railway truck - which seemed to fire forever, without feeding any cartridges into the breech, there was the significant quantity of Number 4 Lee Enfield rifles, which weren't manufactured until after the beginning of WW2 in 1940.
Considering that the original novel was written in 1883, that stretches the timeline way beyond the bounds of credibility.
The dubbing is at times hilarious, and occasionally disappears altogether - with sections reverting to Italian, before slipping back into comedic English.
On an extremely wet day, with precious little else on TV, this rescued me from listening to the raindrops bouncing off my roof tiles.
