Robin Hood

Robin Hood ended on BBC1 this weekend.

They've already killed off Maid Marion and got rid of Will Scarlet.
And used the unoriginal plot device of making Friar Tuck black when he finally turned up.

We've seen Robin die before - in Robin Of Sherwood the original Robin was killed off to make way for a badly miscast Jason Connery.

They used the plot device of the original Robin, Lord Locksley, being killed, to be replaced by a second Robin, who was actually Robert Earl of Huntingdon. As historically Robin Hood was probably more than one man anyway, that worked out fine.

Perhaps they'll do this again for the new series.

Another option is Robin's brother Archer will take over the name and helm.

Either way, we'll be on our third Sheriff.
