The Sheriff (Keith Allen) puts Operation Shah Mat (translation: Kill the King) into action. He assembles a garrison of hundreds of men, the dread Black Knights. He commissions the development of indestructible armor that will turn his army into Iron Men. To fund his plans, he plots to cheat a high-rolling Bavarian aristocrat, while Robin (Jonas Armstrong) and company try to pull an Ocean's 11 and rob his impenetrable Strong Room. But big picture: The Sheriff is determined to intercept King Richard upon his return to England and kill him. Robin receives the clandestine help of Marian (Lucy Griffiths), who, with her ailing father, is being held under house arrest in the castle. After the mostly rollicking romp that was Series One, Series Two of this royally entertaining BBC series takes a decidedly darker, Empire Strikes Back turn (let's just hope that next time around, Robin and his men don't find Ewoks in Sherwood Forrest). Along with the daring rescues, swashbuckling fights, and anachronistic dialogue ("Get with the program, Gisborne") that are this series' stock in trade, Robin's tireless campaign against the Sheriff gets very personal. In the first episode, the Sheriff's snake-fancying sister is killed while trying to administer "death by fanging" to Robin, and Gisborne (Richard Armitage), still smarting from being jilted at the author, burns Marian's home to the ground. Later, Robin discovers that one of his men, not so merry, is a Gisborne spy. And there is a shocking death in the finale that will rock the series to its core. Despite several cheeky episode titles ("Booby and the Beast," "Show Me the Money"), Series Two mostly keeps a straight face. Purists may blanche at the liberties taken with this centuries-old legend, (Marian, moonlighting as the vigilante Nightwatchman, demonstrates some wicked martial arts moves). But for anyone who, like the kids in the exciting episode, "Child Hood," spent childhood afternoons dashing about the forest pretending to be the outlaw folk hero, then the Sheriff's departing words in the season finale will make you quiver with anticipation: "This isn't over, Hood." --Donald Liebenson

I am throughly enjoying Robin Hood the 2nd season I have watched the series from the beginning and wished it had continued longer but I guess all good things must come to an end. As a family, we used to watch Richard Greene when he played robin hood. I liked the fresh slant on the idea of robin and marian.

Excellent service! Arrived quickly and in the condition I was hoping for, which was great.

The discs fall right out of the package and the last two episodes malfuntioned repeatedly. You would think that for $50 you could get a package that works. Crooks.
Marion dies - big whoop. I didn't like her much anyway. And as for, Jack (sp?) - good riddance. Welcome back Alan.

After buying Robin Hood season one on impulse, my wife and I became addicted to the show. We watched season one in a week, then went back to the store and bought season two. We LOVED the show until the last episode of season two, which, for us, ruined everything that had come before it. We will not be buying season three, and we will not watch ANY of the episodes again.

This is a great series from the BBC with a beautiful cast. Richard Armitahe alone is worth the price of the DVD(s).
