I watched this series avidly in the 50s and 60s in Sydney andcstill love them today. Richard Green was superb and definitive. Alas we lost him too early in 1985
Thanks for posting. As a young boy living in rural England in the 1950's , I fed on the adventures of Robin Hood. Bows and arrows, oak trees, and being unseen in the forest with hidey holes in hallow trees, and tree climbing was all part of our daily staple as kids: and Robin Hood was our hero.
I grew up watching Michael Praed as Robin of Loxley so for me he's the definitive Robin Of Sherwood. Am getting this on DVD as I am a fan of this mythical hero but up til now never seen Richard Green as I wasn't born when this first aired but am looking forward to his take on the character. For the film version it will always be Errol Flynn. Black and White won't bother me as I love films from the 1930s more atmospheric.📺📺
Always watched Robin hood in the late 1950s as a child and still do I remember saying all cardboard to my Nan & Grand, Richard Green made an excellent Robin hood Alan Wheatley was also marvellous
I appreciate you putting up this ep, including Joan Sims (partly because it's my wife's maiden name). The sound quality is better than in other episodes other folk have put up. I'm wondering what the sound quality is like on the DVD sets? I'd buy one, if the sound were better than what I'm mostly finding on RUclips (except for this one)

For me, Richard Greene was the best Robin Hood, loved watching him every week along with William Tell, and all the other great shows for kids.

It's old in b&w made on a shoestring budget ,yet you hear every word and simply put is superior viewing to trash of today.
brilliant episode, from a bygone era long gone.
Yep , great stuff . I remember this as a boy !
in my opinion, this series should be in the public domain now.

Nice to see Joan Sims
I ran home from school to catch the reruns at 5 and then after part of a year they stopped running them. I was so disappointed.
Aww Joanie
But surely this is blackadder!
