Very good episode.
Sleepin_Dragon14 August 2021
It's a time for celebration, it's Robin Hoofs birthday, and Billy has donned a green suit, as has Barry, the only person in low spirits is Howard, who's spied Marina in a wedding dress.

I enjoyed this, several funny moments, and some funny one liners. I like the team of Entwistle and Auntie, nobody stands a chance with this thrifty duo, poor Howard has once again fallen foul to one of Wainwright's specials, and most of the episode is spent waiting to see what he looks like.

I am loving Alvin and Nora Batty, he's brought out a side of her we've not seen since Compo.

Those green suits are absolutely horrible, the suit is bad enough, that colour though is so gross.

This was lots of fun, 8/10.

Happy Birthday Robin Hood
Prismark1011 December 2020
Howard is in a shock when he sees Marina driving around in a bridal dress. She has never mentioned anything before about getting married.

A distraught Howard ends up buying one of Auntie Wainwright's special offers. Later he gets a reading from Entwistle which means getting wired up to his car battery.

Meanwhile Billy and Barry are dressed in green suits as they celebrate Robin Hood's birthday.

It is one of these episodes because it lacks a madcap invention or an eccentric visiting the town. There is a scattered approach to the plot.

The dozy policemen are stuck up a tree trying to rescue a cat. Alvin wants Nora Batty to model for him. Howards ends up wearing a German uniform.

Some of the best gags are during the end credits.

This is the first time I noticed Ivy using a walking stick when she visits Nora Batty.
