My brain is mush, but...

...Robin of Sherwood is coming back as a one-off radio play with many of the original cast! :D

ETA: Here's another article from the Radio Times website, with a slightly different list. Very encouraging so far... http://www.radiotimes.com/news/2015-07-23/robin-of-sherwood-to-return-with-stars-jason-connery-ray-winstone-judi-trott-and-clive-mantle

Hoorah!!!

Ro-bin, the Hooded Man, da-dum--I just love that Clannad soundtrack: I have it as vinyl and CD plus all the DVDs, Praed and Connery. Such a sucker for that show :D

OMG...this is so exciting! I adored that treatment of the legend and still rewatch them occasionally. I have the soundtrack on my MP3, (also love Clannad). It was such a good show...it's too bad Robert Addie passed away--his Guy of Gisborne always sort of tore me up by the end of the Robert of Huntingdon era.Nicolas Grace, great as the devious, greedy Sherriff and Ray Winstone was a fabulous (and very different) Will Scarlett. I'm so excited for this!
