Round 17: Robin of Sherwood

I didn't think I'd get these done in time thanks to December having got unexpectedly busy with quite a bit of travel for me and my son coming home, but I really wanted to get these ones done as the theme for this month was "Nostalgia".

I picked one of my oldest, and still well-loved, fandoms, the ITV series from the early 1980s, "Robin of Sherwood". Because it's thirty years old, there aren't that many great quality photos or screencaps around, but I did my best with what I had and the time I had.

As always icons are gankable, no credit needed, but comments are always appreciated!

Hope you enjoy!

Wow. I remember this series! I'm surprised you found as many decent pictures as you did! This series is oooold. You did an excellent job!

Great job with these, they have a wonderful sense of action! Love how many outdoors shots you used. I think my favorites are 7 (love the vibrancy), 8 (the coloring has a lovely vintagey look), 15 (fantastic crop!) and 11 (nice grunginess).

Thanks! Glad you liked them...and the sense of outdoors really works for the show.

*Does not currently have her Robin Hood icon loaded.

I love the Maid Marian, and the "Masterchefs" icons! I haven't heard of a blu ray release of the series, but I have the DVD release that was done July 29, 2008 on my Amazon wish list. Someone somewhere should be able to do caps from DVDs at least. ;)

Thanks, Becca! Have to say the Marian one is a favourite of mine, seeing as that was the only decent pic I had of her. I do have the series on DVD, but an older release that hasn't been remastered, so the quality is still not-so-great...also I could do screencaps, if I ever got around to doing it. So many other things!

Thanks so much! Glad you liked them. :)

And apologies, I was sure I'd replied to you.
