Maid Marian And Her Merry Men - The Complete Series Three DVD

Who steals from the rich to give to the poor? Who is the last bastion of truth freedom and goodness for the peasants of Worksop? Who really gets up the Sheriff of Nottingham's big nose? Robin of Sherwood? No he'd rather hide under trees to avoid any bruising to his perfect face or creasing of his lovely non-catalogue green outfit. Contrary to popular belief it was Marian - strong brave blonde and bossy - who led the merry men. That would be the merry lethargic witless and everso slightly incompetent men! Episodes comprise: 1. The Big Baby 2. Driving Ambition... 3. Keeping Mum 4. They Came From Outer Space 5. Robin And The Beansprout 6. The Great Mud Harvest Maid Marian And Her Merry Men was consistently number 1 in the children's TV ratings throughout its four series partly because it was popular with children of all ages but also because it became ""must see"" viewing for students and young adults. It was popular with the critics too winning a Bafta an RTS Award and the International Prix Jeunesse. This perfectly conceived historical farce is witty warm and stylish. An excellent cast and faultless writing has drawn comparisons to Blackadder Red Dwarf and The Young Ones. It is one of those rare programmes made for and enjoyed by both children and adults and has secured a huge fan-base since it was first transmitted. [show more]
