 Sir Guy of Gisburne   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
Sir Guy of Gisburne is the Sheriff of Nottingham's military arm.
Guy is not all bad...in fact, he enjoys a good mug of ale or goblet of wine and the company of a pretty wench just as much as any other man yet he lacks the ability for humor so much so that many think him to be more harsh and solemn than he truly is.
Thus, Guy is forced to follow, to seek her out within the reputedly haunted wood and return her to Nottingham unscathed and usually quite angry.

Shortly after Guy was born, David inherited the Earldom of Huntingdon (1152 in real history!), and marries another woman (in real history, David married Maud(e) de Kevilioc or De Kerlioc, daughter of the Earl of Chester, in 1190); Margaret then felt it is too late to tell him that he gave her a son.
The only way to reconcile Lady Gisburn's confession is to assume that she is delirious with pain and shock and misremembering the exact circumstances of Edmond's absence.

 TV Show Summary :: Robin of Sherwood :: Television Series Synopsis
Richard Carpenter's groundbreaking series, considered by most to be the ultimate Robin Hood depiction, brings to the legend a magical and mystical quality that is both timeless and representative of the era in which it was made.
With a superb young cast lead by Michael Praed (series 1 and 2) and Jason Connery (series 3), Robin and his merry men battle against the infamous Sheriff of Nottingham, and his poor fated right-hand-man, Sir Guy of Gisburne, as well as a host of vivid baddies.
Spanning several genres, this action based adventure series is anything but a one-dimensional hack and slash series, rather is masterfully layered, rich in character and circumstance that will intrigue and excite the very youngest and oldest of viewers.
