Iznogoud is Grand Vizier to Haroun al Plassid, ruler of Baghdad, and he has only one dream - to 'become Caliph instead of the Caliph'. With the assistance of his servant Wa'at Alahf, he tries his worst again and again to no avail. But the usually oblivious Caliph has finally caught a hint of Iznogoud's reputation among the people. To help the one he believes to be his friend, he sets off on a quest to find the legendary vegetable that brings out a man's kinder nature - the carrot!
