Thursday 28th August The Legend of Robin Hood Episode 5
M1795537OCVirn
Starting at 7.45pm (BST)

Episode 5
The penultimate chapter in this sorry tale of a man wronged, a nation ruled by force and royal princes who no longer talk to each other, mostly because one of them now lives abroad. (Nothing new under the sun, eh?). Skullduggery of the darkest kind abounds! Will Marion be forced to marry Guy? Probably. Unless Robin can rouse enough of a rabble to defeat the evil (grinning) sheriff! The Saxon invaders rise up against the conquering Normans (who were originally Vikings anyway), but who will win? Join us to find out. (Or not, because there's another week of it after this).

Will we see the return of Eleanor of Aquaplane? Will we finally find out who's marryin' Marian? Who'll be this week's guest lutenist? There are more questions than answers. Just like when I did my Physics O-level.

Sting's got the gig for next week's final episode apparently.

Just checked the latest Ladbroke odds on who Marian'll be marryin'...

13/8 Guy of Gisbourne
6/1 Robin Hood
20/1 Eleanor of Aquitaine
100/1 The bloke last week who looked like Roy Wood

Should think M1 will have a cheeky fiver on Roy W.

I've got a secret task this week btw. So secret, even I don't know what it is.

I'm putting money on a nunnery. What are the odds for that?

You've always got a secret task. And nobody wants to know what it is. Grin

Just for fun. Once I did archery at the party, but it was not serious. Just a few tries.

Sorry I'm a bit distracted tonight - currently in the middle of a disaster - our car broke down in Kendal and the RAC can't get there till 9pm. Oh, dear. Hubby starving. Probably.
I'm fine, thanks, sitting here at home wondering how long I can keep his tea warm.

Axes should only ever be thrown seriously. Frivolous axe-throwing's a really bad idea.

Anyone throwing an axe had better be serious.

He could gnaw on one of his legs to keep himself going until his later-than-usual supper.
