Robin Of Sherwood


Robin of Sherwood

At the time this was exciting and brilliant and scary. If you watch it now, 20 years later, the acting is wooden and the special effects are cringe-worthy!

Luckily, we didn't know any better in the eighties and our enjoyment was not affected.

The dashing young Robin of Loxley (Michael Praed) courted a pretty Maid Marian (Judy Trott). He did his best to avenge the poor and hurt the rich with the help of the usual suspects including Clive Mantel as Little John. He later found fame in Holby City. When Praed left he was replaced by Jason Connery as a new Robin based on the legend of Robert of Huntingdon.

Don't forget the haunting theme music provided by Clannad!
