ROBIN HOOD
A STRANGE woman shows up this week. Actually, two strange women – but it’s the first, a creature called Isabella, that has our hero most intrigued.
When Robin claps eyes on this dark haired beauty, resplendent in her flowing if somewhat impractical golden cape, she’s struggling to fight off a pair of heavies in the forest.
Robin arrives just in time to complete the job and prevent these oafs hauling her back to wherever she’s fled from – but when he tries to establish exactly who she is, she fails to divulge a shockingly significant detail.
Meanwhile the other intriguing arrival is a scary creature called Bertha of Bath, arriving in town with her travelling gladiator circus.
Turns out she’s another one who’s being economical with the truth.
