SPOILER ALERT!! – Thanks to Prince John (Toby Stephens), Gisborne (Richard Armitage) has gone from sheriff to outlaw and is now living in the forest. Robin (Jonas Armstrong) comes across him but their standoff is brought to an abrupt halt when they are both hit by tranquilizer darts. Robin meets his father again, who he believed had died in a house fire when he was a child. He learns his father was too ashamed to face him again after he accidentally killed Gisborne’s mother, his lover, Ghislaine (Sophie Winkleman). Robin learns that his father and Ghislaine had an affair and a child was born and given away. This child, named Archer (Clive Standen), half-brother to Gisborne and Robin, is in York Jail awaiting execution. Robin’s dying father appeals to Robin and Gisborne to end the cycle of violence started by their fathers and unite to save their brother. Episode ten of season three airs Saturday, November 14th @ 9 p.m. EST/PST on BBC America.

SPOILER ALERT!! – The outlaws return from the Holy Land and are thrown into disarray when Robin (Jonas Armstrong) announces he doesn’t want to be Robin Hood, the hero, any more. He breaks up the gang and goes on a solo mission to kill Sir Guy of Gisborne (Richard Armitage) in order to avenge Marian’s death. The outlaws arrive to see Robin and Gisborne in the heat of battle, and watch as Gisborne throws Robin into the river, far below. Meanwhile, Sir Jasper (Lee Ross, The English Patient) arrives at the castle with a message from Prince John (Toby Stephens). He blames the Sheriff of Nottingham (Keith Allen) for the bungled assassination and demands 1,000 crowns a month and the body of Robin Hood – just as Gisborne enters to announce he was finally killed Hood. But, unknown to Gisborne, a travelling monk, Tuck (David Harewood), has pulled Robin from the river. He knows Robin Hood is the only hope the people of England have left, but all Robin cares about is revenge – even if it means getting killed in the process. But Tuck has a plan to get Robin reunited with his gang and resurrected as England’s protector. Episode one of season three airs Saturday, September 12th @ 9 p.m. EST/PST on BBC America.
