ROBIN HOOD “Ducking and Diving” (S02E05) - Preview Clip Video

May 28, 2008

Are you still loving this season of ROBIN HOOD? I know I am.

This Saturday, May 31, at 9pm we are getting a whole new episode, “Ducking and Diving,” on BBC America.

Robin suspects that he has a spy in his camp, which he does. Unfortunately for me, I really liked Allan last season and I am still upset he betrayed the gang. Nothing good can come out of this if Robin finds out about him betraying them. This episode could be life changing.

And since Saturday is still a few days away, we are happy to give you a sneak peek at the new episode.

Synopsis: “Ducking and Diving” - A horrified Robin discovers that his plan to capture the Sheriff’s spy, Henry of Lewes, failed because of a traitor in his gang. Fearing for Marian’s safety in the castle, Robin needs to find out who is betraying him. His only clue is supplied by Marian - the spy sells his secrets to Gisbourne at the Trip to Jerusalem Inn. With two missions to complete Robin is relieved when Henry of Lewes arrives at the castle unconscious, his vital information about the King’s landing sites remaining a mystery. Robin infiltrates the castle to silence Henry and is helped by a wise-woman Matilda, who is tasked by the Sheriff to nurse Henry to health. Asking Robin to look after her heavily pregnant daughter, Matilda promises that she’ll silence Henry using special herbs. The Sheriff makes the connection with Robin and Matilda’s life is in danger. Robin returns to the forest with Matilda’s daughter, to a confused and hurt gang - they resent being suspected of treachery. Marian arrives at the camp on a horse, reporting that Matilda is about to be tried for witchcraft. Can Robin trust his gang to save the lives at stake and also silence Henry? There is a spy in his gang who needs catching before the day is out.

Early Review: ROBIN HOOD “The Booby and the Beast” (S02E02)

May 3, 2008

Dexter Fletcher as Count Friedrich and Lucy Griffiths as Marian

Is it not fun to have ROBIN HOOD back? Tonight’s second new episode, “The Booby and the Beast,” is another fun one.

Robin tries to steal more treasure from the Sheriff’s new Strong Room. But it turns out to be a harder challenge than initially anticipated.

Marian on her side finds herself sort of attracted to Prince Frederick of Hanheim, who was invited to the castle to play in the newly built casino (talk about anachronism, but it’s really fun to watch).

All and all the episode achieves a great sort of split story between Robin and Co. trying to break into the castle and Marian and Prince Frederick setting up their own deceiving plan against the Sheriff.

And of course the Sheriff and Guy of Gisbourne are as evil as ever, and we love it!

Dexter Fletcher is great in the role of Prince Frederick of Hanheim, and he brings an additional layer of fun.

I repeat it, Robin Hood is a great show to watch for some really great entertainment, so don’t forget to watch it tonight, May 3, at 9pm on BBC America.

Interview: RICHARD ARMITAGE from ROBIN HOOD

May 2, 2008

Richard Armitage

Last week, Daemon’s TV spoke with RICHARD ARMITAGE, who plays Guy of Gisbourne, about the return of ROBIN HOOD for its second season on BBC America.

Richard Armitage talked about the evolution of his character in season two and his interesting infatuation with Marian, his favorite episode of the season, his new role on Spooks (MI-5 in the US), and much more.

Don’t forget to watch Robin Hood Saturdays at 9pm on BBC America.

And without further ado, enjoy the interview!

Daemon’s TV: What is it like to play a villain in “Robin Hood,” especially since it’s such a well known story?

Richard Armitage: You know what, I was pretty nervous about playng a villain at the start, because people are not going to necesserally like this character, and I’m going to be booed and hissed on the streets. But it’s just so much fun because the writers, I think they have a lot of fun planning all the bad things that these characters are going to get up to, and it’s actually a lot of fun doing it. It’s naughty and you get to sort of exercise all those elements that you can’t really do as a person, because it’s not civilized or polite or nice, so it’s actually really enjoyable to do it. (Laughs)

Early Review: ROBIN HOOD “Sisterhood” (S02E01)

April 26, 2008

Jonas Armstrong as Robin Hood

ROBIN HOOD and his gang of Outlaws are back. Watch out Sheriff!

After a very exciting first season, Robin Hood is back for its second season starting tonight at 9pm on BBC America (it takes the time slot of Torchwood).

In the first episode back, some time has passed since Marian left Guy of Gisbourne at the altar, but his bad feelings towards her still linger on. Knighton Hall is burnt to the ground and Marian and her father are brought to the Sheriff and put under house arrest.

The Sheriff continues with his plans to overthrow King Richard and brings in his sister to help him.

These two also set up a trap for Robin Hood, which he finds hard to resist.

Allan-a-Dale also plays a major part in the episode, and his decisions will most likely lead to some interesting episodes for the rest of the season. I think it adds a new dimension to the series and I am curious to see it unfold.

Overall, I found this episode very exciting. It is a perfect season 2 opener and it sets the tone for the whole season.

There is lots of action and seemingly impossible to escape situations, but once again the villains will be defeated. And let’s not forget humor and romance.

What I love about Robin Hood is that because it is a TV show, you get to see it every week. Plus it is such a great show to watch on Saturdays.

The actors are all really great and the villains are so fun to watch. Jonas Armstrong is a great Robin Hood. He brings lots of personality to a character that is very well known and still manages to make him appealing.

If you are a fan of Robin Hood, then you need to give the Robin Hood series a chance.

Don’t forget to watch Robin Hood tonight, April 26, at 9pm on BBC America.

Robin Hood

The Brits get it right once more with the TV series, ROBIN HOOD. After catching up on season 1 recently (I had started watching season 1 when it first aired but never got around to watch the full season), I have to say that I am really excited to see what new surprises season 2 has in store for us. In fact I have already seen the first two episodes (I’ll talk more about the episodes in my review) and let me tell you that if you enjoyed season 1, then you will really like season 2 as well. At least from the look of it, I can already tell that they are moving forward with the stories and developing the characters even more. Plus, I spoke with Richard Armitage (who plays Guy of Guisbourne) and he mentioned that episode 13 (the season 2 finale) was one of his favorites this season. I will have his interview up soon, so keep an eye out for it as well.

Don’t forget to watch the premiere of Robin Hood season two tonight, April 26, at 9pm on BBC America.

For now check out more pretty gallery pictures of Robin Hood below.
