1995 TV adaptation of the Bernard Cornwell novel of the same name, although this one - in particular - seems to have nothing in common with that novel except the name and, perhaps, the fact that it involves Aztec gold in Spain!

I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with Bernard Cornwell adaptations.

I (generally) like his books.

I've yet to encounter a good adaptation, with the possible exception of the 90s Sharpe series (with Sean Bean), although those definitely needed a bigger budget!

This is loosely based on Cornwell's 'Warlord' trilogy - The Winter King, Enemy of God and Excalibur - which Cornwell himself views as his best works.

They're a 'realistic' retelling of the Arthurian stories, basically.
