i watch this series on pbs back in the eighty and still watch the old tape every couple of year or so . very atmospheric and creepy sometimes . this be a very good show a the character be all well define and act . you be draw into the plot and come to care for these people . the villain be almost laughably evil and especially the sheriff of nottingham . man and i would love to beat the s t out of that snotty little bastard . nicholas grace do an excellent job and must have have a great time be the sheriff . his whip boy and sir guy and be equally hissable but be also pathetic . lot of murder and mayhem in this series and along with ton of black magic and devil worship and thing of that nature . i notice it get an award for child television which be surprising . if i have kid and i would not let them watch this . outstanding use of location in this show also . it be now on dvd and so go out and buy it .
