So this has persuaded me to read Zenda too - I somehow hadn't quite clicked that it was the original Ruritanian romance - and as you say, it is exactly what it's supposed to be and very good fun. Rupert completely stole the show, I'd heard vaguely of Rupert of Hentzau but nothing prepared me for actually meeting him, he's got more personality than all the other characters in the book rolled together. I'm definitely going to have to read Henchmen now that I know it exists!
