Event - FOLK TALES OF NOTTINGHAMSHIRE (Worksop)

The next PHS meeting is on November 7th at the BCVS, next to Worksop Priory on Priorswell Road, Worksop

FOLK TALES OF NOTTINGHAMSHIRE – Pete Castle. Author and Folk Singer.

Passed from generation to generation, Nottinghamshire’s folk tales have been gathered by Pete Castle, author, into a book. It includes outlaws and of course Robin Hood; the clever Men of Gotham; witches, ghosts and vampires as well as noble lords and thwarted lovers. A new speaker for the Society but an unusual subject and well worth a visit!

Hope to see you there. The talk starts at 7.30pm

First trailer for “ROBIN HOOD: GHOSTS OF SHERWOOD”

Forget Russell Crowe—we’re more interested in seeing what a Robin Hood movie featuring Tom Savini and Kane Hodder looks like. And now that a teaser trailer for ROBIN HOOD: GHOSTS OF SHERWOOD has hit the web, we have a taste.

Savini is the Sheriff of Nottingham and Kane Hodder is Little John in GHOSTS OF SHERWOOD, a 3D feature directed by Oliver Krekel. The film also stars Tom Paladin Bareck as Robin, Carolina Grigorov as Maid Marian, Kai Borchardt as Friar Tuck and Martin Hentschel as Will Scarlett, in a scenario that has the undead Merry Men haunting the titular forest. Check out some exclusive pics from the movie here and here, and see its Facebook page here.

Good timing with Sherwood Forest being in the news today and the Robin Hood Festival being saved yesterday J.  It actually looks like Sherwood in the trailer too and I’m impressed by the way it goes back to the semi-pagan outlay of the 80’s TV series
