The contemporary retelling of the popular legend is back with more breathtaking archery, incredible swordplay, lots of humour, fun and energy, a smattering of brute force and the raw determination to right wrongs.

Jonas Armstrong, Keith Allen and Richard Armitage are joined by newcomers to the series David Harewood (The Palace, Blood Diamond) and Joanne Froggatt (Coronation Street and Bad Girls). The entire third series of the BBC hit drama Robin Hood is released on DVD from 29th June 2009.

It is three months since Marian's untimely death and Robin (Jonas Armstrong) is a changed man. Jonas presents a darker, tougher Robin Hood hell bent on avenging his wife's tragic end.

Marian's murderer and Robin's mortal enemy, Guy of Gisborne (Richard Armitage) is a marked man. Will Robin kill his arch nemesis or let him live burdened by guilt and remorse?

Robin seems caught in a downward spiral but hope arrives in the form of a travelling monk called Tuck (David Harewood) who gives Robin hope and motivation. Meanwhile, the wickedness of the Sheriff (Keith Allen) continues unabated.

A feisty Locksley girl called Kate (Joanne Froggatt) gets caught up in the cause of Robin Hood and proves herself as a skilled fighter.

Gisborne's little sister, Isabella (Lara Pulves), unexpectedly arrives becoming a complication for both Gisborne and Robin.

Series three kicks off with the outlaws returning from the Holy Land and Robin breaking up the gang. All he wants to do is avenge Marian's death so he races to Locksley manor to confront Gisborne and an epic battle commences with shocking consequences.
