Robin of Sherwood (BBC/ITV) Season 1-3 now free to stream for Amazon Prime members
A high benchmark for quality television drama and arguably the definitive interpretation of the Robin Hood legend, this BAFTA-winning series is presented here in stunning High Definition.
Michael Praed and Jason Connery star as Robin Hood in Richard Carpenter's influential and highly acclaimed re-working of the classic myth. Combining equal parts high drama, historical accuracy and atmospheric mysticism, Carpenter's reboot pitched a band of not-so-Merry Men against a decidedly brutal and waspish Sheriff of Nottingham. With a haunting theme from Clannad, strong scripts and memorable performances, Robin of Sherwood was, and remains, a worldwide hit.

None of the above addresses whether or not Amazon resampled it or they're merely using the execrable Acorn media mastering of the DVD set from 20 years ago which included fabulous VHS quality digital video! I'll have to give an episode a quick squiz & see what's what... Nope, from the opening credits, it appears it's still 480i resolution. Ah well, I guess TANSTAFL still holds true! 🤣

I watched it a couple years back. It was either on Prime or Netflix, as those are the only streaming I had then. Stuff goes on and off them both so much, if you find something you like, you better watch it quick.
Edit: when I watched it, it seemed pretty much like a vhs tape. I don't think it was redone at all.
