Thirty Days Meme: Day 7 - Robin Hood
Aug. 31st, 2013 01:28 pmIn which I ramble away to anyone who happens to be listening. BBC3 is currently repeating Series 3 of Robin Hood, so I was watching the current episode on Catch Up TV whilst doing the ironing. Yes, I'm probably the only person around here who irons, but who cares. It's much improved by watching programmes that aren't too gripping and where otherwise I'd be throwing things at the TV. Like Robin Hood, which has me complaining about the plot and the fact that basically the same thing happens every week and surely even the Sheriff would recognise that it's the same peasant as last week. At which point I have to remind myself why I'm watching.
It's the actors, to be precise Sam Troughton, who plays Much. There is bonus Richard Armitage as Guy of Gisborne and I'm still trying to sort out in my mind how to have a early middle ages Stanley Hopkins. But Sam Troughton (see icon). He's the actor who caused me to drag two of my friends to Liverpool, had already meant I'd dragged one of them to London and OH to Stratford upon Avon. He's also taken me to Sheffield and London (again) this year.
It also has Joanne Froggatt, who I think I ought to like since she played Sam Tyler's mum in Life on Mars, but I don't. This might of course have something to do with playing Anna Bates in Downton Abbey, but I don't think so.
Anyway, to return to the point of this ramble (it has a point? you ask - I was tempted to call it a stream of consciousness, but that requires rather more of my brain power than I manage on a Saturday). I was watching Robin Hood when I realised that I was shipping Guy of Gisborne with the Sheriff. They did seem to be getting their swords out rather a lot when they were alone with each other.
