Robin of Sherwood (the inferior sort)

[lesbiassparrow]

I have moved onto Robin of Sherwood: the Connery bits. I don't dislike it as much as I used to because a) well, the Merry Men and Marian are still amazing and b) Connery's commentary and interviews are HILARIOUS.

Also! The first two episodes with Owen of Clune and Richard O'Brien as a mad sorcerer are to be cherished for their impressive amount of over-acting. Now the Merry Men are off to see if Mad Peg can cure Robin's wounds. When your choice of medic has 'mad' in their name it is never a good sign for the state of medicine.

Heeeee! Excellent, excellent. Yeah, I remember hearing one thing about how they once almost strangled a bunch of their extras when they realized their fake chainmail would constrict once wet...

It just generally seems like making tv might've been more fun back then, doesn't it?
