This episode reminds me of so many Blakes 7 episodes. I was waiting for Avalon to appear. You're thinking of Le Morte d'Arthur |

I need more Avon. And king Richard wasn't here at all. Will he return in the last episode? His story is usually a 'turns up in the nick of time' one. Ah, yes. I should have remembered that. |

Well, we're half-way through it. And the last ep has to be the melodramatic bit about him firing the arrow out of the window (and hits the Sherriff of Nottingham again*) so they're going to have to fit an awful lot into the next two, * Taiellin - it's from '1066 and all that' again. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

King Richard is off crusading - he's not going to get back in three weeks. Don't think you'll be seeing him again.

Alas methinks Robin is not long for this world. No chance of him dying in old age. Wonder if Marion ends up in a nunnery? Silflay hraka, u embleer rah!

Death to the Normans! (who were Vikings anyway), and death to the Saxons (plus Angles, Jutes etc) as well. Southerners, the lot of 'em.
