Filming’s just started on the BBC’s new version of Robin Hood – there’s a press release about it here.
This version is written by Dominic Minghella, brother of Anthony. I was a big fan of the Michael Praed/Jason Connery series back in the eighties, and with all the growing coverage of his Alex Rider books and forthcoming film, it’s worth remembering that Anthony Horowitz wrote some of the Connery episodes back then (with the formidable Richard Carpenter – stalwart of decent kids TV).
