Is anyone watching the latest Robin Hood series on UK tv? What's with all the modern dress, for Maid Marian?

She even has manicured nails and, yesterday the Sherriff of Nottingham was wearing black satin pyjamas!

Yes i noticed today watching the repeat at 3.30pm that The Sherriff of Nottingham is wearing black satin pyjamas. I think it's a slight modern take of the Robin Hood legend for a more PC world.
But in both seasons you are right thay are wearing slight modern dress but that's not a bad thing is it not.

I know - funny isn't it? I think they would say they did not advertise the show as period drama so therefore they don't have to be anywhere near historically accurate!

noticed that before no awards for costume dept there then , what next robin tunic with pocket for mobile phone

total rubbish that series,

It's a fantasy not a real historical drama

Never mind the outfits, have you noticed what a babe Anjali Jay is?
Especially in the episode where she wore a dress, instead of those trousers she normally wears. She plays the part of Djaq.

yes i do watch it and i think it great i dont really notice the clothes

i like it but i do agree it isnt quite like the original and doesnt really fit with the time it is set especially the costumes

I know but it is a more modern version of Robin Hood so things are going to be more modern. It is TV. It's not meant to be accurate. It's still a great series though.

It's all meant to be a bit tongue in cheek. Not a serious period drama.

yes i noticed that a while ago but i still love robin hood. he is so sexy

I like to watch it, but I have to admit I can't take my eyes off Richard Armitage as Sir Guy, in all that black leather although sometimes I feel he should be riding off on a Harley rather than a horse.
