Well, M1, that sounds like a good action-packed 5 minutes' worth. Who knows what'll happen in the remaining 45.

If someone hasn't heard of Robin Hood before, the best way to describe it is "Blake's Seven On Earth" Wink Shock
Vote Og.

Big question is, will this be the week we finally get to meet Air Fryer Tuck?

The main thing is to remember to turn up.

Blimey. Is it Lent or something?

If we're all going to be reformed characters this evening, I'll go for quality over quantity. No, really.

This should be worth watching. Not the episode - the posts from reformed characters. For a certain value of 'reformed'.

Just watched last week's episode - alas, no Sheriff of Nottingham bathing that I could see. Was rather irritated by people calling him 'Nottingham' though - wouldn't have happened, IMO, unless there were a lot of other sheriffs about. And I see that we are going with Walter Scott on the Saxon/Norman thing.
 
Cygnus Bazza
Working on the first verse of ‘The Ballad of Bold Sir Bazza de Bonce’.

Can’t think of anything to rhyme with ‘bonce’. Ideas?

Careful.

The legend of Robin Hood - the tv show and the actual legendary figure - was rewritten for each age. In the tv/film era, perhaps because they are more broadly seen, the Scott version has lasted well.
