It's been three months since Marian's untimely death and Robin is a changed man. Tougher he's sacked his gang since they all returned from the Holy Land. Not only that - he's hell bent on avenging his wife's tragic end. Her slayer Guy of Gisborne is a marked man. Fuelled by anger and grief Robin seems stuck in a downward spiral but a new beacon of hope arrives in the form of a travelling monk called Tuck (David Harewood) who soon gets our hooded hero back on track. Meanwhile the wickedness of the Sheriff continues unabated. A spirited Locksley girl named Kate (Joanne Froggatt) objects to her brother's forced conscription.
