Robin Hood Ep 9/13
Saturday 1 December

A mortally wounded, one-legged messenger from King Richard flees Locksley Manor pursued by Gisborne's men and ends up in the arms of Robin, in tonight's instalment of Dominic Minghella's drama. In his dying breath, he tells Robin that the King needs him to return to fight in the Holy Land, and utters the word "Lardner".
The Sheriff is furious that the messenger got away, especially now that he and Gisborne are also on the hunt for Lardner, having received a prediction from a fortune-telling Fool that the "ring of Lardner" spells trouble.
When Will and Djaq discover that Locksley Village is being scoured for Lardner's ring, Djaq tells Robin what Lardner really is – a Saracen carrier pigeon. Consequently, Robin's reply to King Richard will only take days to reach him.
When Robin and Marian ride off to the last place they saw the King's messenger, the gang set about composing the note to the King. But, just as Robin and Marian reach Lardner the pigeon, the Sheriff and Gisborne arrive. Surrounded, and trapped in a tree, Robin and Marian realise that unless they resort to desperate measures and the help of Fool they will face certain death.

Robin Hood is played by Jonas Armstrong, The Sheriff of Nottingham by Keith Allen, Sir Guy of Gisborne by Richard Armitage, Fool by Mathew Horne, Will Scarlett by Harry Lloyd, Djaq by Anjali Jay and Marian by Lucy Griffiths.
