well and it robin hood a geezer all right . just a advertised . that do not sound very hopeful and and ala and it be bad than i would suspect . a laddish robin i can take while a robin who tangle with a pert dyer daughter i can credit while but a robin who exchange not very funny banter with his single henchman be hard to swallow and and a robin and entire cast who seem to be have difficulty manage their line be the kiss of doom . how could anyone let such laboured delivery pas without re shoot the scene . again and again and much sound a if he struggle with half comprehend shakespeare rather than let loose with a salty quip while i hop at the onset that it be just a failed comedy trait in a character clearly destine for the role of comedy sidekick and but then it start spread throughout the rest of the cast . whatever else you say about errol flynn in the role and he have the knack of deliver high flown dialogue as naturally a if he would just think it up on the spur of the moment . and a this production show and that not at all as easy a it sound . if they be go to cast the character a cheeky chappies and the actor in question should have be give appropriate line represent they sound a if they haven not a clue how to handle them . i be afraid i do not even like the pantomime sheriff and for a similar reason while the line be clearly not intend to be take seriously but deliver ( and in this case write ) with a nudge and a wink at the audience . theyre out of place all right fourth wall bust stuff but really not that funny . this much promise production remind me of a limping school play . the only actor and character i felt any appreciation for at all be the one playing guy of gisbourne and who be the sole one who appear to have any handle on ( a ) credible villainy and ( b ) credible characterisation but frankly and i wouldn not have say that be a very good augury for the future of the series . a of the time of writing and i will give it another shot in the hope that thing may improve and bed down a bit by next week and with less stilted scene setting require and perhaps the actor more at ease with the dialogue represent after all and the opening episode of doctor who wasn not exactly a show stopper and though it be nowhere near as bad a this . but if i see no improvement after episode 2 and i be afraid the series have almost certainly lose one viewer . which would be a pity and because i have get a soft spot for the robin hood legend on screen and from the adventure of douglas fairbanks to the sturdy reliance of richard greene . but this robin fail to stir my blood in the slightest .
