Often heralded as one of the best children's programs ever created, and just as often described as being wasted on children, this hilarious comedy is finally available DVD. Maid Marian & Her Merry Men is set in Worksop, the best-kept village in Nottinghamshire during 1326AD, and home of the great Robin Hood. Legend has it that Robin was a hero who led a brave band of Merry Men, robbing the rich to give to the poor, but the legend is wrong. Maid Marian was the brains of the outfit, but Robin took all the credit. It was she who assembled and fought oppression with a bunch of prats known as the Merry Men - a dwarf called Little Ron, a Rastafarian, an ugly dolt by the name of Rabies and a yuppie called Robin of Kensington. Doing incredible brave things like piercing their ears and rescuing tadpoles, Marian and her men combat the cruelty of a mad, bad, king called John and his villainous Sheriff of Nottingham. Starring Kate Lonergan, Wayne Morris and the great Tony Robinson (Black Adder) this delightfully funny, award-winning series puts a feminist spin on the classic Robin Hood legend. All six episodes from Series 1 are included.
