Season 2

Sister Hood

Robin and the gang have been busy constructing their ingenious new camp, but,
when Knighton Hall is razed and Marian and Edward are taken to the castle under
house arrest, it's clear that the rules have changed.
As the state of Nottingham gets worse, Allan A Dale becomes agitated. He wants
more and a distracted Robin cannot reassure him - he's too busy preparing to
rescue two girls and their pretty mother, Rose (Sara Stewart), as well as
formulating a plan to help Marian - so Allan goes AWOL, determined to make his
own way in the world.
A series of events then changes everything - Allan's trickster japes land him in
the castle dungeons, Rose is revealed as the Sheriff's sister and the lure of
the two girls is exposed as a brilliant trap laid by the Sheriff.
The walls are closing in around the gang as the Sheriff has formulated a
devastating new campaign - Shah Mat - conspiring with Prince John to overthrow
King Richard. Only with the help of Marian and the outlaws can Robin defeat the
Black Knights.
But, even when Robin and the outlaws escape with their lives, they are no longer
safe - Allan has changed allegiance and agrees to spy for Gisborne. From now on,
the heroes must rethink their strategy to take the Sheriff on at his own game.

The Booby And The Beast

In his first mission since discovering the devastating truth about operation
Shah Mat, Robin launches an abortive raid on Nottingham Castle's new Strong
Room. The Sheriff has stored all his Shah Mat funding in the medieval Fort Knox,
but, before the Black Knights arrive to divide up the silver, he's preparing a
final big deposit.
Having underestimated the Strong Room's array of deadly traps, Robin rethinks
his strategy - resolving to track down the original Strong Room designers who
have been mutilated, by order of the Sheriff, to prevent them leaking the
secrets behind their brilliant designs. With the help of now-blind designer
Steven, Robin and his men build up a picture of the Strong Room mechanics and
practice how to beat it.
Meanwhile, in the Castle, Gisborne has ordered Marian to pander to every whim of
the high-roller Prince Frederick of Hanheim (Dexter Fletcher - Hotel Babylon),
who has arrived to play in the casino. In fact, the Sheriff has no intention of
losing to this Bavarian Count, and, when outraged Frederick learns the Sheriff's
plan to fleece him using crooked dice in the casino, Marian gains a vital ally.
For Frederick is not the booby the Sheriff initially thought, and, together with
Robin and the gang, they formulate a plan to rob the Strong Room.
All Frederick must do is lose, but he ends up winning. Things aren't looking so
good for Robin in the Strong Room, either. Traitor Allan has leaked information
about Robin's attempt on the Strong Room and Gisborne has ordered modifications.

Child Hood

When a group of boys accidentally stumbles on Gisborne's weapons-testing site,
all but one is taken prisoner. The resourceful escapee, Daniel (Adam J Brown),
is able to elude Gisborne's men and runs to Robin to raise the alarm. Robin is
horrified to discover that Gisborne has developed an indestructible new suit of
armour, made of special Damascus steel - an army wearing this armour would
easily defeat King Richard and must be stopped!
Gisborne has taken the boys back to Locksley Manor where the Sheriff orders that
they be hanged. Luckily, Robin and his gang arrive in the nick of time. What's
more, Robin cleverly steals the impressive black diamond, used to create the
Damascus steel. But disaster strikes and Daniel is captured during the scramble.
The Sheriff immediately demands an exchange - Robin can have Daniel back if he
hands over the black diamond. Robin's priority is rescuing Daniel and he and the
gang decide that they will agree to the exchange and, once made, they will then
torch Locksley and melt the black diamond once and for all.
Marian learns of Daniel's capture and puts a plan into action. Feigning interest
in seeing Gisborne, she requests a night pass from the Sheriff. She doctors the
document so that the signature can be mistaken as a release for Daniel. Marian
runs her plan past Robin as she needs one of the outlaws to pose as a guard and
take Daniel. To everyone's surprise, Allan volunteers, but he only sees it as a
brilliant opportunity to leak Robin's plan to Gisborne.
Once Gisborne is forewarned of Robin's plan, he arms himself to the hilt,
donning his indestructible suit of armour. Now a rescue attempt is virtually
impossible and Robin must think fast if he's to save a boy's life and stop a
vital part of the Sheriff's war machine.

The Angel Of Death

The Sheriff and his sinister scientist, Joseph (Ralf Little - The Royle Family),
are testing a chemical weapon on a street in Nottingham Town and blaming the ill
effects on the Pestilence. But Dan Scarlett (Sean Murray), who is in town to
visit his son Will, knows it is not the pestilence at all.
Dan wants Will to become his apprentice and run the family's carpentry business,
but Will is frustrated that his father is blind to the good work he does as an
outlaw. Father and son bicker about what's best for Will - but tragically fail
to resolve their dispute before the Sheriff murders Dan for speaking out against
the suspected poisoning.
Now Robin realises that the Sheriff is up to something and resolves to track
down the source of the poison before more innocent people die. Bravely plunging
into the heart of "pestilence" territory, the outlaws work tirelessly to soothe
the sick - little realising that the strange helper from Leicester is none other
than Joseph (Ralf Little)!
Worse still, Robin believes Will has returned to Scarborough when, in fact, he's
headed straight for the Castle to punish the Sheriff for his act. With lives at
stake, Robin must track down the source of the poison in time. But what will he
do when he realises that Will is intent on avenging his father's death at any
cost?

Ducking and Diving

A horrified Robin realises that his plan to capture the Sheriff's spy, Henry of
Lewes (David Bamber), has failed because he has a traitor in his gang. Fearing
for Marian's safety in the castle, Robin sets about rooting out the turncoat.
His only clue is supplied by Marian: the spy's meeting place is located at the
Trip To Jerusalem Inn, where the traitor outlaw sells his secrets to Gisborne.
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, but help
arrives in the shape of harridan wise-woman Matilda (Josie Lawrence), 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, but doesn't bargain upon the Sheriff making the connection with Robin
Hood and putting her life in mortal peril...
Robin returns to the forest with Matilda's daughter, to a confused and hurt
gang: they resent being suspected of treachery and it takes all of Robin's
leadership skills to rally his outlaws into helping Rosa.
But then Marian arrives, reporting that Matilda is about to be tried for
witchcraft. The race is on to rescue her before she drowns. Can Robin trust his
gang to save the lives at stake as well as silencing Henry? As Robin well knows,
there is a spy in his gang who needs catching before this day is out.

For England

The Sheriff's Black Knights gather at the castle to attend a feast and declare
their allegiance to Prince John by signing the Great Pact of Nottingham. With
the outlaws disguised as entertainers, Robin infiltrates the castle to join
forces with the only man who can stop them: former Sheriff Edward's old ally and
Black Knight, the Sheriff of Winchester (Denis Lawson). Winchester's territory
is key to the Sheriff's Shah Mat plan that will apprehend a homecoming King
Richard at the southern ports.
Once Robin is satisfied he has convinced Winchester to stand up to the Sheriff,
he sends the outlaws on a diversionary mission and writes a farewell letter to
Marian. Preparing to make his greatest sacrifice alone for King Richard and
England, Robin hopes to finish Shah Mat once and for all by killing all the
Black Knights.
As Robin enters the feast disguised as a Black Knight, he's in for a terrible
shock: Winchester is revealed to be corrupt and has double-crossed Robin, lining
him up for the Sheriff to kill. With Marian added as a sweetener to his deal,
Winchester has set Robin up. Surrounded by a roomful of enemies, Robin faces
certain death alone. Only with the help of his outlaw gang can he hope to fight
for his life...

Show Me The Money

Robin is determined to get hold of the Great Pact of Nottingham, written proof
of the Sheriff's treason. So when lovelorn knight John of York (John Hopkins)
and his chest of silver pass by Robin and the gang, and the Knight begs the
outlaws to take pity on him and save his girl, Robin formulates a plan.
The Knight is sent off not only with his money, but the gang's too. For Robin
intends to rob everything back once it reaches the castle by using York's silver
to locate where the Sheriff's treasure - including the Pact - is hidden.
As the outlaws gather at the castle shadowing York's chest, fate is about to
deal a devastating blow in the form of Gisborne's new right-hand man, Allan A
Dale. While Marian tends to Edward in the dungeons she overhears Allan earning
his keep by giving all of the outlaws' secret entrances away. Once Robin
realises that Marian's under threat too, he decides that England can wait:
Marian needs saving!
Edward, meanwhile, is spurred to action: if the Pact offers irrefutable evidence
of Prince John's treason, then he resolves to do all he can to retrieve it.
Escaping his dungeon, he locates the Pact of Nottingham in the Sheriff's secret
safe.
But, as Marian prevents Robin from silencing Allan, Edward is discovered
escaping Nottingham and concealing the pact - with tragic and life-changing
consequences for Marian...

Get Carter

Marian wakes up in Sherwood Forest on the first day of the rest of her life as
an outlaw with Robin and his gang. Surprising everyone with a new energy and
recklessness, however, she jeopardises the gang's mission to bring aid to Clun
Village after it's ransacked by the Sheriff's men.
The outlaws think their luck is in when Clun's new avenging hero, Carter (Joseph
Kennedy) - a fearless ex-Crusade fighter - arrives in the nick of time to help
them all out. Unfortunately, Carter just happens to be the Sheriff's hired
assassin, and the ransacking of Clun village has been staged to allow Carter
access to Robin. A man with a mortal hatred for all things Robin Hood, Carter is
tasked to infiltrate the camp and retrieve the Pact of Nottingham.
Carter's act is flawless, and he earns the gratitude of the outlaws - they even
take him back to camp to help him with his injuries. However, everyone seems to
be too busy squabbling about the new dynamics in the gang to notice they have an
assassin in their midst.
Marian, meanwhile, must contend with worried Gisborne's attentions as he sends
Allan out to track her down. Annoyed with Robin, Marian and Allan work together
to trick Gisborne into thinking she's become a nun.
Just when the gang's guards are completely down, Carter strikes a deadly blow
against each outlaw. But he's concealing a secret of his own - vengeful love for
a dead brother - for which he mistakenly blames Robin. As Robin gets to the root
of Carter's hatred, so he begins to understand the real Carter and sets about
rehabilitating him, and the greatest turnaround of this day will be the trick
that Carter - now Robin's man through and through - plays on the Sheriff of
Nottingham.

Lardner's Ring

A mortally wounded, one-legged messenger from King Richard flees Locksley Manor
pursued by Gisborne's men and ends up in the arms of Robin. With his dying
breath, he tells Robin that the King needs him to return to fight in the Holy
Land, and utters the word "Lardner".
The Sheriff is furious that the messenger got away, especially now that he and
Gisborne are also on the hunt for Lardner, having received a prediction from a
fortune-telling Fool (Mathew Horne - Gavin & Stacey) that the "ring of Lardner"
spells trouble. When Will and Djaq discover that Locksley Village is being
scoured for Lardner's ring, Djaq tells Robin what Lardner really is - a Saracen
carrier pigeon. Consequently, Robin's reply to King Richard will only take days
to reach him.
When Robin and Marian ride off to the last place they saw the King's messenger,
the gang sets about composing the note to the King. But, just as Robin and
Marian reach Lardner the pigeon, the Sheriff and Gisborne arrive. Surrounded,
and trapped in a tree, Robin and Marian realise that unless they resort to
desperate measures and the help of Fool they will face certain death.

Walkabout

Tormented by Robin Hood, The Sheriff sleepwalks straight into Sherwood Forest.
Unfortunately, he goes missing on the very day that Prince John's messenger,
Jasper, arrives to check all is well in Nottingham. By the time Gisborne raises
the alarm, Prince John's private army is already on its way, ready to raze
Nottingham at sunset. Drastic action is called for, so, while keeping up
appearances with Jasper, Gisborne and Marian secretly task Robin with tracking
down the Sheriff in the forest.
The Sheriff, meanwhile, is getting to grips with nature and embarks on a journey
of rediscovery. When he comes across some scheming beggars intent on fleecing
Robin, he realises he can get his hands on the Pact at last. Little John is
fooled by the Sheriff's brilliant, blind, poor-man act and brings the enemy
right into the heart of the camp.
As sunset and oblivion draw closer, and Prince John's army looms on the horizon,
Gisborne risks his life standing by Marian as they fight together to save the
people of Nottingham. Only Robin can save them now...

Treasure of the Nation

The Sheriff has turned Locksley into a garrison town, throwing its people out
to make room for an army of vicious mercenaries. As Robin and the outlaws
formulate a response plan to stop them, they are intercepted by three burly
King's Guards, led by the fearsome Legrand (Stephen Beckett) who brings a vital
message from King Richard.
The King has sent coded information concealing plans to move his thesaurus
patriae (treasure of the nation). Torn, Robin decides that he must help the
King, even if it means forsaking Locksley. However, Marian believes Locksley
must be protected and soon the Nightwatchman is in action, wreaking vengeance on
the mercenaries. But Gisborne and Allan are ready for trouble, and Marian finds
herself cornered, and then finally unmasked by Gisborne. Her secret is out, and
Gisborne swears she will die as punishment for her treachery.
Robin is cornered, too - the Sheriff has already killed Legrand's contact, and
the man Robin and company meet is really the Sheriff's spy, feeding back all
information about the treasure hunt.
As the Sheriff and Robin discover, everyone is in for a surprise when King
Richard's treasure turns out to be neither gold nor jewellery...

A Good Day To Die

Robin and the Outlaws arrive at a barn for Robin's birthday party, only to find
that they are surrounded by The Sheriff's mercenaries and will not be let out
alive.
The Outlaws share their secrets with one another whilst the traitor, Allan A
Dale, realises that The Sheriff and Gisborne are heading to the Holy Land to
kill the King. Fearless Marian takes it upon herself to stop The Sheriff in his
tracks, while Allan must choose his allegiance.
Will Robin realise that the mercenaries are merely there to distract him from
The Sheriff's new dastardly plan, and will Allan come to his senses?
