When it comes to Robin Hood, my favorite is simply the BBC series "Robin of Sherwood" from the '80s. It only ran for a couple of seasons. But it was very well done.

That was an early episode too... maybe the second one in the series? I jumped on the chance to get the DVD set when it became available.

We had somewhere in the region of 600 kids ( 7 to 11 year olds) attend throughout the three days.
We tried to talk about all things knightly, ie, chivalry, medieval warfare, weapons, armour, castle life etc etc.
One thing that the little "gentlemen" were none to pleased about was that we made the young ladies sit down at the front, but they had to stand. lmao ;)
Here`s a snippet in the local news;

Sounds like a great time, Sir Gerard. Unfortunately the video doesn't seem to be viewable on this side of the pond, only within the UK. :(

Oh sorry about that. To be honest you ain`t missing much, just me wacking Cpt Nicholas in the C.O.P. to show the kids that his belly is really quite well protected ;)
