Time to revive an old thread in order to mention an old TV series. The Buccaneers. As a digital TV channel here which specialises in old films and series has been showing the series for a while, I've recorded some episodes and started watching them.
Not to be confused with any films about a single buccaneer, this 1956 series stars a rather young Robert Shaw as Captain Dan Tempest. It shares producers, directors and authors with several other series of the time, such as "The Adventures of Robin Hood" and "William Tell", and they weren't all that historically accurate either. Still, it looks amusing enough.
