After many delays, one of the first episodes I wanted to do! A discussion about the very real Sherwood Forest from what it is like today to how it has changed over the centuries. Could outlaws have fended for themselves in a harsh medieval winter? Do the works of Howard Pyle give the right impression about forest life? What exactly did we learn from "The Butcher's Oak"?
I get some expert insights about how life is and was in Sherwood Forest from Andrew West, visitor experience officer for the RSPB.
