two distinct classcs,

thc Scxons, a slavc racc,

and thc Normans, thc mastcrs
who rulcd without justicc.

Morc than a ccntury bcforc,

thc Saxons had bccn
a frcc and happy pcoplc,

but in 1066,
thcy wcrc dclcatcd at Hastings

by Dukc willicm of Normandy,
william thc Conqucror,

and to prcscrvc thcir rulc,
thc Normcns built thcir castlcs

and introduccd brutal rcprcssivc Iaws.

The harshcst wcrc thc forcst Icws.

A man could bc torturcd and hangcd

for hunting food to fccd
his starving lamily,

or madc a wollshcad, an outlaw,

whosc hcad was worth
no morc than c woll's.

This is thc story ol onc man,
Robcrt ol Lockslcy,

a Scxon larmcr who was to
bccomc known as Robin Hood,

thc outlaw, a wollshcad.

Kill him!

You will ang for this!

I'm a free man and you're on my land.

And you attacked a knight
and a royal game warden!

Only to protcct mysclf.

That's the law.

You have no power here.

Take your men and get off my land.

[tense music]

What is your name?

Robert of Locksley.

Then look to yourself.

We'll mcct again.

[foreboding music]

[horse winnies]

Hey, that was closc.

How's your head?

Oh, it's still stinging,
but on me soulders.

Thank you, mastcr.

Who are you?

Gyrfh the Swinehcrd from
Roger of Doncaster's land.

The Hangman?

Ah, Roger the Hangman.

That was his brothcr, Gcoffrey.
Hc's unted me for three days.

Well, what have you donc?

Only run from the whip mastcr,
like othcrs.

Well, you're safe here.

And my men don't wear these.

I'll not starf a feud.

Aftcr I've rested, we'll move on.

We?

My family.

I hid them here while I lookcd for food.

[Gyrfh whistles]

[soft music]

This is Tom and that's Abbie.

[girl] Oh, the poor things.

Look, Mothcr.

I'll get them washed.

We'll feed them first, Alice.

Put some food in their bellies.

Uon't bc afraid, Abbie.

What would you say to a nicc piccc of pie?

You'd like tat, wouldn't you?

[bright music]

Come on.

[ominous music]

Where's my brother?

[door thuds]

It's a pigsty!

What do you breed in this hall?

Wine.

My lord.

So...

I thought we were gonna
have some sporf tonight,

but no, he was taken from you,

and by one man, thcy say.

A Saxon.

Hmm?

One man against my brother,
the brave Gcoffrcy,

and the cief game warden.

What were your foresters doing?

Their leader's a Saxon himself, my lord.
Stukely.

We were on free land. He knew the Iaw.

Stukely. I've never trusted him.

-Have him watchcd.
-My lord.

-Where was this?
-Locksley?

Who was te man?

Roberf the Ycoman.

Isn't he one who your Lady Marian fancies?

[cup clatters]

Get out.

Get out!

[door tudding]

It was the same man?

Yes.

Then why didn't you kill him?

He took us by surprise.

-If I had some of my own mcn--
-My men!

[ominous music]

You have nothing...

that isn't mine.

-[metal scraping]
-[Gyrfh gasps]

[Gyrth groaning and panting]

They ought to bc whipped raw
temselves.

-I'm a scrf.
-Aye, so am I , boy,

but I'm not an animal.

Here, drink this.

Oh, this is good iron. I can usc this.

So, you're bound for the forest?

What do you think you'd live on?

Roots, berries, hunt somc morc game.

And break the gamc laws?

The foresters would
catch you inside a week.

Aye, then it's out with your eyes
or an hanging if thcy takc you.

And you're made a wolfshcad if they don't.

Wolfshead?

Aye, an outlaw.

Your head worth no more tan a wols,
dead or alive.

You'd best stay with us
till you're strong enough.

Would you like that, boy?

Stay here with us for a whilc?

Well, would you?

Tom can't speak, master.

Oh, he used to, but not since
they took his mother to Geoffrey's hall.

[Roger] Should havc got rid
of this Robert long ago.

Because of him, Marian puts mc off.

Lord Pitzwalter would
never let them marry.

No, but he's a fool.

She'd twist him round her finger.

We could hang this Locksley!

Oh, yes, and ave the whole
Saxon rabble at our throats.

No, whatever's done must
be done insidc thc law.

What led you to him?

The serf.

Hc thought he'd given us the slip.

But he was hunting deer.

Hunting dccr?

Was Locksley wit him?

I don't know. Don't think so.

I wonder if the gamc wardcn
might... remember.

Legros!

[tense music]

[all laughing]

Arc you going to the Pitzwalters'?

Yes.

Is it wise?

Whether it's wise or not,
I haven't sccn Marian for over a month.

Maybe that's for the best.

Moter.

You were friends as childrcn,

but marriage between you is impossible.

She's a Norman.

This is King Richard's time,
not the Conquest.

I don't hate Normans.

They'll never permit it.

I'll let her decide that.

[soft music]

Up there. There!

[Alice] Look, Abbic.

[stone thuds]

[Much laughing]

[Tom clapping]

-[metal clangs]
-[chickens clucking]

-Where are you going?
-Part of the way with you.

To the Friar's cell.

[Robert] They say he takes more
than a barrel in onc swallow.

That's a wicked thing to say.

How long will you be gonc?

It's not morc than a day,
and I won't be stopped on the way.

Roberf, take carc.

If her father and his
friends ever found out,

you'd make terrible enemies.

I have no enemies.

[wind rustling]

[Friar snoring]

[Katherine praying quietly]

[monks singing hymns]

Roberf of Locksley? I know him.

His land's on the edge
of Barnsdale Porest.

Between yours
and the estate of Pitzwalter.

Yes.

When I marry the Lady Ma...

the Lady Marian.

According to my rcporfs,

-that happy day is still far off.
-[quill scribbling]

I have her father's p... promise.

My lord, Abbott.

I am your man.

When I have te estates of Pitzwalter,

together we shall old all the power

between Doncaster and York.

Together?

I can go where you cannot.

Move where you cannot bc scen to.

But I already havc a stcward.

I meant more tan that!

And I'll not be spied on!

[Abbott] Then leave. This mccting is over.

Not until I have finished!

With King Richard away on his Crusade...

[quill scribbling]

...and if he stays away much longer...

[Abbott snaps fingers]

...then prince John will nccd
powerful friends in the North.

I may have underestimatcd you, Sir Roger.

The balance of power
will indeed be dclicatc.

But these are dangcrous matters.

What have tey do to
with Robert of Locksley?

With him out of the way,
our lands will be joincd.

You are a member of
the King's Grcat Council.

I administer justice.

But if this Robert upholds the Iaws

and pays his taxes, we cannot touch him.

But if he had brokcn the laws,

more parficularly, the forcst laws?

Oh, that would be a very different matter.

I have a number of blank warrants
signed by the regcnt Princc John

for just such an occasion.

[Roger cuckles]

Legros!

Legros!

[Roger] My Lord Abbott,
this is the chief gamc wardcn

of Barnsdale Porest.

[Abbott snaps fingers]

Robert of Locksley.

Take care. Bye.

Bye.

-[tense music]
-[horses approaching]

[horse winnies]

-[Alice] Mama!
-Alice!

[birds chirping]

It's been so long.

Every night I've said,
"Let Robin come tomorrow."

[both laughing]

Why do you smile?

Because you'rc the only one
who still calls me Robin.

Not even your mothcr?

It's my father's name for me.

She hasn't uscd it since I was a child.

[Marian cuckles]

I thought I heard... Comc on.

[both laughing]

-[Marian laughs]
-[Roberf sighs]

I suppose we ave to go on
meeting like tis in hiding.

-Oh, perhaps not always.
-[sighs] Until the world changcs.

Could you tell your father about us?

This is England. We were born here.

We're not Saxons or Normans,
we're English.

Why can't wc bc together
like free human bcings?

You know why.

My father's not a cruel man.

He liked yours. They wcrc fricnds.

And yet you ave to marry a Norman?

Robin, I'm his only child.

You have to preserve his estates,

marry your own kind.

[leaves rustling]

But suppose e orders you to.

He already has.

I'm to choosc within a year.

Who?

I could never be happy
with anyone but you.

What if he makes you?

I'd say no.

Then he'd scnd mc away to a convent.

Or to Prance.

And either way, I'd lose you.

[tendcr music]

I must go now.

Next time, we'll have longer.

-Ouickly, or my nurse will miss me!
-Come wit me.

One day, I promisc.

I love you!

Nothing can cange that.

[laughtcr]

You're not much of a hunter, boy.

Friar Tuck.

[Priar Tuck] You can thank
your mother you're still alive.

-I thought you wcrc a wolf.
-A wat?

I thought you wcrc a wolf.

Like all your sort,
you'd have killed first

and then lookcd.

It's thc way of the forest.

And the world.

And you wondcr why
I choose to live on my own.

Your pardon, Pather.

You're not so often
so far from your cave.

I was gathering hcrbs.

Medicine.

I'm sorry, Fathcr. Good day.

Bid you good day.

[horse snorting]

You two shouldn't be out here alone.

It's almost supperfime.

What is it?

[tense music]

[flames crackling]

[horse winnies]

Gyrfh.

[Old Wat groans]

[Old Wat groans]

[Old Wat groans]

Mother!

Moter.

Moter.

Alice?

[foreboding music]

[flames crackling]

Alice.

They've madc mc a wolfshead.

What?

My land's been taken by
the Abbott of St. Mary's.

I've been outlawed for killing a stag.

Tom!

Tom.

[Abbie crying]

Tom.

Did you see thc man
that killed your fathcr?

Did you see teir shields?

Sow me.

[tense music]

Roger of Doncaster.

And his broter, Geoffrey.

I'll find them!

Pirst there's work to do.

[stone thuds]

Into Thy ands, O Lord ,
we commend their spirits.

Amen.

Is that all?

There's no time for anymore.

We have children and wounded.
You must find somcwhcrc safe.

[Robert] Were?

Thcrc's a path over the mountains.

I know thc track.

-Are you strong enough?
-Aye.

I'll bring you somc food in the morning.

If it was the Hangman,
he'll bc back before dark,

with more men.

You'll take my mother
and the children to the nunnery?

Yes.

Even thoug te Abbott will know
that you've helped us?

[scoffs] Let him comc
and tell me he's displeased.

[tense music]

[footsteps approaching]

Tom!

Tom.

[dramatic music]

[flames crackling]

[tendcr music]

[sorrowful music]

He always said he lived too long.

I brought what I could.

There's guards in the village.

-And the Hangman?
-No.

But his brother's been.

Hc's made one of his own men bailiff.

What do we do now?

Learn how to live in the forest.

How to stay alivc.

What about him?

-[wind rustling]
-[crows cawing]

They'rc looking for him.

He can stay with us,
until we find im somewhere safer.

I brought this.

What is it?

It's my father's. It's a Welsh bow.

He said there's a law
against carrying thcm.

He always kept it hid.

He said it would stop a bear.

But I could ncvcr string it,
let alonc draw it.

[arrow whoosing, thuds]

[birds chirping]

[bow creaking]

[arrow whooshes, thuds]

No wonder there's a law!

It'd pierce plate iron!

They think they're safe
in their castles and armour.

Since they have made me a wolfshead,
I shall be one.

None of them, Normans, pricsts,

even their scrvants,
shall use the forcst roads

without fearing us.

Wat.

You'll be our eyes and ears.

Tell Lady Marian that I'm safe,

and if she has a mcssagc for me
to leave it with Priar Tuck.

Oh, and, Wat.

To be safer, she's to say
the message is for Robin.

Robin?

Robin?

[Much whistlcs]

You'd better get back
before you're missed.

No.

I'd stay with you, if you'd let me.

It could be forever.

They'll hunt us down like wild beasts.

And we'll livc in the sun
till we're caged.

We better get our tings together.

If you followed us hcrc, others can.

I must get deeper into thc forest.

[tense music]

My lord, a messengcr from Sir Rogcr.

[Abbott] Yes?

The matter he spoke of is concluded.

Does that mean te land is ours?

[secretary] Yes, my lord.

Then why didn't you say so?

Without too much unpleasantncss, I hope?

It would appear not.

The people are quiet.

Sir Roger has appointed
a bailiff in your name.

Good. Good.

[wick sizzles]

I had always eard that
the Doncasters were simplc bullies.

They may turn out to be
quite useful aftcr all.

What of the outlaw Robert?

-Was he taken?
-No, my lord.

We may presume he's dead.

May we?

All these people nccd is a leader.

If e's not dead, hc could be dangerous.

We must know for sure.

Go to Locksley and see the priest.

And send for Sir Rogcr.

Tell him I don't want reports
from messengers,

but from him, in pcrson.

[tense music]

Did you find him?

We found where he'd been,
and ten we lost him!

You lost him?

Your men are supposed to be
the best hunters in England.

How could they possibly losc him?

He's learning to cover his tracks.
He's made for thc deep woods.

Then get aftcr him!

I don't want you back here
without his hidc.

My lord!

And you, my dear brother, can go with him.

What?

I want you there when thcy flush him out.

We need his head for thc Abbott.

The fat fool has te land already!
That's all he wants!

The fat fool could squash us like flies!

We promised him Lockslcy,

and unless we keep thc bargain,

he has the land and wc have nothing.

We don't nced his favour!

Oh, but we do.

To get the favour of Princc John.

After that, things may bc diffcrent.

Take all the men you can,

cover the crossroads
and every way out of thc forest.

You tink he might
come back to the villagc?

He might.

But wherever he is, he can't be far.
The boy will old him up.

[tense music]

[Tom struggles to spcak]
Robin. Ah...

[Tom whistles]

[footsteps rustling]

Tere it is.

Whelon's Ditch.

There's caves and shelter
on the othcr sidc.

Yeah, but...

everyone knows there's strange things
on the othcr sidc.

Evcn the foresters don't go there.

That's why we will.

You two stay here.

I'll go and find somewhere
where we can cross.

[foreboding music]

[staff tuds]

You don't cross here!

I cross where I choosc.

It is my land.

Nobody crosses witout my lead.

-What makes it yours?
-This.

[staff tuds]

[both grunting]

[staffs thudding]

[both grunting]

[Jon yelps]

[Roberf yelps]

[Robert souts]

-[John laughing]
-[Robert grunting]

Here.

-[Robert groans]
-[John yelps]

[John laughing]

[both laughing]

That was good!
[John laughs]

That was good!

You're... You're the first man to hit mc.

You're the first fellow that's beaten me.

What do tey call you?

John Little of Cumberland.

And why do you livc hcrc?

Oh, well, they tricd
to put me in thc stocks,

so I broke them over the bailis head.

That's why I took
to the healty, open air life.

One foot ahead of the shcris men.

The forest can be a dangcrous place
without a friend behind your back.

-That's true.
-[Much] Robin!

Robin!

[exciting music]

This fellow knocked me into the water.

[John] Oh, fighting cocks, ch?

Much.

Tom.

John Littlc.

[John laughs]

Much and Littlc.

I think he might join us.

Wcll, you're game enough, why not?

John Little?

Hey, he's so tiny,
we should call him Littlc John.

[Much laughing]

[John laughs]

[foreboding music]

The priest at Locksley tells me
there are two gravcs,

and neither of thcm for this wolfshead.

Is he dead?

Well , is e?

It's only a matter of time, my lord.

It was to be done at once,
quickly and quietly.

You have his land!

A few acres and a burnt-out farm.

Not worth the risk of a local rising.

These people are cattle, my Iord!

They know thcir mastcrs.

Let us hope so, Sir Roger.

And what of tis other business?

Your marriage to te Lady Marian.

She'll not refuse, my lord.

When she knows he's dead.

They call you the Hangman, don't they?

First you must catch your man
before you hang him.

He's one man!

Without friends, without wcapons.

The foresters will track him down.

Well, you better send for more men

in case he escapes again.

[tense music]

He'll not escape, my lord.

No?

Por your sake, Sir Roger,

make sure he doesn't.

Robin! Robin!

There's a squire and two riders!

An escort for a lady!

A lady?

This one's mine.

[dramatic music]

[horse snorting]

Out of my way.

Just a word, mastcr.

[foreboding music]

[John grunts]

[knight yelps]

[Roberf] John!

-[arrow whooshcs]
-[knight yelps]

Bc thankful I didn't break your neck.

[squire grunts]

[hooves galloping]

No.

Ride on.

[Adele speaks Frcnch]

[all laughing]

Wench. Who was shc?

I don't know. But she had some spirit.

-The devil and women.
-[Robert laughs]

Give either a little courtesy
and they'll get a crack on the head.

What have we got?

-A letter.
-Let's sce.

A ring and some money.

That was the Hangman's squire.

[foreboding music]

-And ten?
-They would havc killcd mc.

O?

You were to protect my sister.

You didn't think that
worfh risking your lifc?

Well , I tried!

There were about a dozen of them.

Be exact. Thrcc.

Three men and a boy.

A boy?

What were they likc?

One was nothing.

The other who beat that lily was bcarded.

Huge, like an ox.

And te third?

Hmm.

He was interesting.

Strong, too.

And handsome, for a country fellow.

Locksley!

The man you'rc hunting?

If it was, my dear Adclc,

be sure he won't livc to insult you again.

Pity.

When you catch him, lct mc have him first.

[tense music]

Get the names of every man and woman

who might know where he's hiding.

We can begin with
the Saxon forester, Stukely.

It's true.

They have all the evidencc thcy need .
The chief game wardcn swcars to it.

Por stealing a deer?

You know te forest Iaws, my Iady.

Where is e?

Hiding, in te forest.

Well, then he's safe.
They'll ncvcr find him there.

He's a farmer, my Iady.

I covered his tracks as much as I could,

but sooner or later,
they're bound to catch him.

They must leave wile they can.

Why are you telling mc all this?

Can you get a message to him?

Yes, I think so.

Tell him he has no chance
if he stays near thc villagc.

They're sending to Selby
and York for morc mcn.

Wy?

For some reason, it's not enough he's bccn
outlawed. They must havc him dead.

Who?

[footsteps rustling]

I must go, my lady.
It's more than my lifc to bc found here.

Send him word.

But who wants im dead?

For that, you must ask Rogcr of Doncaster.

[tense music]

Move. Come on, move.

Move, come on.

-[blow lands]
-[man grunts]

What did you say?

You could make any of thcsc people talk?

[Sir Roger] They're not people.
They're animals.

I can't help thinking that if this Robert

can command such loyalty
without asking for it,

how many will follow him when he does?

[foreboding music]

[man grunts]

-[sword whooshes]
-[knight grunts]

-[dramatic music]

[knight yelps]

Robin!

They've captured Wat!

Thcy've taken him to the whipping post!

[chuckles] Roberf of Lockslcy,

You'rc his man, where is he?

You'll tell us beforc wc're done.

Where is e?

-[whip snapping]
-[Wat grunting]

-[arrow whooshcs]
-[guard screams]

Legros!

[arrow whooshes, thuds]

I was on my way back to you.

The Friar had a messagc from Lady Marian.

Will Stukely came to sec hcr.

-What, the forestcr?
-Yes.

He told her to warn you the Abbott's men
are combing in thc forcst,

but Stukely was spied on and caught.

What have they donc with him?

Hc's to be made an example.

Geoffrey, the Hangman's brother,
is to take him to Doncaster for execution.

-Where is he now?
-At the Hangman's castle.

You two go back
and get the forester's hoods.

[solemn music]

[arrow whooshcs]

[Tom wistling]

There'll be about 20 of them
and only four of us.

Our one chance at surprise.

Can we wear these hoods?

Yes. I learned it from thc forcsters.

They'll hclp to conceal us.

[tense music]

-[arrow whooshcs]

I'm Will Stukcly.

[Roberf] I know.

You saved my life.

[Robert] You saved mine, twice.

Wy?

I was born a serf,
and your father madc mc a frce man.

I became a soldier and thcn a forester.

And now a wolfshcad, likc you.

You mean to stay an outlaw?

A free man.

And fight thc Norman.

As long as e fights me.

Then I am your man,

and I take you for my captain.

And me.

And me!

And me.

[chuckling] Robin.

Robin Hood.
