The new thread is here, and with it I bring my comments on the episode that I just finished seeing.

I loved this episode! There was some Robin/Marian in there even though there was nothing blatant like a hug or a kiss. Robin always fears for Marian's safety. And with good reason, Marian is playing a very dangerous game and Robin was right, the spy could have very well told Guy about Marian being in cahoots with Robin. But of course, we the audience know better. We know that a) Marian has to be a kick ass spy on the inside for Robin and b) we all know that Allan, as sneaky as he can be, would never put Marian's life in danger like that.

I also liked how the Guy/Marian thing was handled in this episode (whereas I had a problem with it in episode 3 as they made things look ambiguous as to where Marian's intentions and feelings were concerned) because you clearly saw this time that Marian was charming Guy to get rid of the guard assigned to her and to get info for Robin. I truly felt the Robin/Marian team vibe this time, which is what I felt they had failed to do in episode 3. I keep wondering though where this is all gonna lead for Marian though. I feel like something bad and consequential is gonna come her way. Either a) something bad will happen to her father or b) she's gonna be found out by Guy as the Night Watchman.

I loved all the stuff involving Allan in this episode. I loved the confrontation he had with Robin when he was found out. Jonas and Joe's acting was top notch in this scene. I also loved the double meaning conversation he had with Djaq. As much as I love Will, I think I'm leaning more towards Allan/Djaq in this Will/Djaq/Allan triangle. I loved the Allan/Djaq interaction last season and I think this season and especially this last episode sold it to me.

And let's not forget the awesomeness that was Little John. I love that they're giving him more to do and to contribute to this season. I really wish that they had stuck to the legends on this matter and kept Little John as Robin's closest ally among the outlaws. It's not that I hate Much or anything, it's just that I think Robin would benefit more from Little John's life experience as far as Robin's character growth is concerned. Much is just plain silly at times and is too much still the man servant for Robin to eventually grow up.

Next week's episode looks like a good one too. Is it Saturday again already?

New episode! New thread!!
Waheey.

Yeah, definite R/M vibes all the way through even though there wasn't any actual kissing etc.
But I also like the G/M interaction, even though it's far more clear now that Marian is flirting to get her own way. I'm also waiting for Marian to get her comeuppance in regards to this, because she's going to get caught out eventually..

Little John Awwwhh. He's sucha a sweetie is he not?!

I adored the Djaq/Allan double meaning conversation as well. It was great!
I squeed tbh.
But I still think I prefer Djaq/Will.

I haven't seen a trailer for next week.. Don't know why :S
LOL.

Thanks for the new thread, Cath! Love the title.

I agree, I think they're overplaying Much's silliness so he just annoys me most of the time now

I made a banner! It's not great but the pictures were too pretty to resist

Yay, I'm not the only one!

I love Much, the way Robin treats him at times is despicable, it's lucky I see Robin as a flawed character, because that's not something I admire in a character.

Ooh, such a pretty banner!

I accidentally read some spoilers for the next three eps. I've been so good about not reading any RH spoilers, and then they just jump on me, tackle me to the ground, and force their way into my mind and memory. The unfairness of it all!

I adore Will, but I feel like he's kind of too youngish for Djaq.

If you don't mind, Kat, I added your banner to the opening post because I found it so pretty.

I also added the link to the last thread, which I forgot to do last night.

I'll be back with Robin/Marian screencaps in a little while.

Thanks Cath - of course I don't mind

Looking forward to the caps!

I watched this episode again, just had to mention how much I love some of the guest stars they get because they just seem to have so much fun on the show. Josie Lawrence in particular And it's always fun to see Mr Collins David Bamber.

Also, I realised the Trip inn they mentioned is probably the oldest pub in England (dating from the 12th century) in Nottingham which I've been to! For some reason I like that fact

Hee, I totally laughed when I recognized him. It took me a while though with his costume and apparel, but that voice sounded too familiar for me to not recognize it.

Here are some caps from this week's episode. Poor Robin doesn't want to lose his sweetheart yet again to his cause.

Some of my very Relevant and Important thoughts on this ep.

- Oh Guy, never stop the gay-vibes. They're like crack to me.

- The wise woman was awesome. Such inventive language! And her comments on Robin's beard!

- "Couldn't you find a civil-tongued wise woman?" "Apparently this is the one all the civil-tongued ones once go to." HEH!

- "I'll chop off my own arms! Well, one arm, because once I've chopped that off I won't be able to chop off the other!"

- Oh Allan, you are so hot.

- Oh Djaq, you so think Allan is hot.

- Marian's dress was very nice.

- I'm not quite sure, but I think Guy might be kind of evil.

- The part when Robin had Marian against the stall crackled with sexual chemistry. I like!

OMG, I so felt those when he met Allan in the tavern. But then again, I think that almost everyone who interacts with Allan have the hots for him.

Hee, she's my favorite character of the week so far. Her comment on Robin's beard was indeed gold.

See, there is this kind of silliness about Much that I absolutely love , and then there's the other kind of silliness that I don't like as much.

Agreed. The more this series goes on, the more he's becoming my favorite among the outlaws. I also find myself getting vibes of him and practically everyone else (Djaq, Will, Guy, Robin and even Marian) whenever he shares a scene with one of those characters, even though I'm a Robin/Marian shipper at heart.

Agreed. I also find myself leaning more towards Djaq/Allan in the Will/Djaq/Allan triangle.

Quite true. In fact, I think that he has suspicions of Marian being in cahoots with Robin already. Just the way he busted her following him at the market was creepy and far too aware.

I thought that he was gonna kiss her in that scene.
