Summary
Ali Oopla (Frankie Howerd) is a bondservant to the Wazir of Baghdad. His job is to be at his master's beck and call, protecting him from problems and making sure that his every need is met.
This programme was very much a reworking of Up Pompeii!, with "different costumes but the same jokes", as Frankie Howerd himself said.
