And so when [[Castle Duckula|the castle]] moves off to Spain, Duckula receives a rude awakening in the form of his castle catching fire, [[Nanny]] mistakenly puts out the fire, and this act doesn't sit well with the local villagers, who have them all imprisoned, until they find Don Diego, who wishes to chop the villagers up and invite some other vampires as guests to join in, so soon he makes a pact with Duckula: Duckula defeats the most evil-tempered bull and Don Diego promises to not harm a single one. But this may prove more difficult than seems.
