As The Adventures of Maid Marian begins it is the year 1199 in Merry Olde England. Robin is off fighting with King Richard. Marian is hiding out in a nunnery, occasionally sneaking out to poach a deer for starving villagers.

Then the word arrives, the king has died and his troops, including Robin, will be returning. Overjoyed, Marian rushes off to meet him. But she’s not the only one who wants to welcome him back. William De Wendenal the former Sheriff of Nottingham wants to revisit ye olde tymes with him as well.

As many times and ways as the tale of Robin Hood has been told I honestly can only think of one version that’s told it from Marian’s point of view, the BBC comedy Maid Marian and Her Merry Men.
