It's one of Bayban's crimmos, isn't it?


Thank you!

Is this Sir Titus Fock? Or Earl Eebyrd? Or Walter de Spenser?

That is the worst hat I've ever seen on a bishop.

What was the BEST one, though?


The ones worn at the coronation of Charles III

It's too small for him - either that or the bishop's head is too big.

That Sheriff is up to something.

It's made of cardboard with trimmings from the Sewing Bee haberdashery.

Out of his depth. Like many royals.

Of course he is, he's Avon.

Why should they hang them? Wouldn't it be quicker to stab them?

We're not even halfway through yet. Are we talking total tailspin in the offing?

Stabbing's too good for them. Besides, they'll serve as an example to others.

He is brave to speak with John like that.

Presumably this is a Robin copycat, and not one of his men at all.

Actually. 27 minutes of 52 is more than half way.

Who cares? I'm rooting for the Angles, who are keeping a VERY low profile.

Ah, little duck. Don't worry, we'll be here for you when the sad end comes. Like in Blake.
