Adventures of Robin Hood - Volume 10

The legend of Robin Hood is given a grand retelling in this popular and long running series made for television (1955-58). Filmed in Great Britain with the handsome and dashing British actor Richard Greene as Robin, the "outlaws" of Sherwood Forest watch over the people of England and protect them from the cruelty and greed of the ruling aristocrats.

The Traitor: Three lords collect enough gold to pay King Richard's ransom and return him to power. When the ransom disappears, Robin must use all of his cunning to determine which of the three has betrayed their cause.

The Knight Who Came to Dinner: Little John and Friar Tuck happen upon a destitute knight who is being forced to turn over his land to an ally of the Sheriff. When Robin hears of his plight, he concocts a plan that will restore the knight's castle and make a fool of his enemies.

The Wager: What begins as a friendly competition between Friar Tuck and Robin Hood to see who can collect the most gold in a day becomes a competition to see who can uncover the most corruption and thievery.

The Friar's Pilgrimage: Robin Hood and Friar Tuck set off to Canterbury for a peaceful retreat. Along the way they find a village where a corrupt Count has accused the Lady Margaret of being a witch in order to take her land. When Robin is taken prisoner by the Count, Tuck must devise a way to outsmart the villain.
