At the end of the day Arista, It's a light teatime show that contains more historical innacuracies then actual plot. It's a bit of fun it ain't meant to be a history lesson. The fact that you make such a big deal of it astounds me.

So for the 3rd time ... how do you know "at the Robin Hood Time (mahahaha) ...they were all White." ... explain

ps
"for example we never sent Spanish Down Under,
We sent English Criminals." ... focus

No Ranting.
Look at History of middle England of that time.
I do not care what Nurse poster says.

I am talking to You.
4th time lucky!!!!! lol
How do you know "there was Not Black Men running round" in "Robin Hood" times. What you don't seem to get is that your understanding of the racial mix in middle age england comes from nasty 1950's 60's movies that were as historically accurate as the new Robin Hood version is... ie not at all. So unless you can bring some facts besides typing "FACT" at the end of your rant then your wasting our time.

I was told about this while in London
it is not just me.


If it astounds you - OK.

But I Value English History.

We will end up like the Yanks who
re-write History and teach in a way that gives them the wrong
view.

It is probably just basing it off the movie that Kevin Costner starred in, his best-friend in it was black.... I don't really care though, Robin Hood is a show for kids, and I'm sure kids won't care if they decided to cast a black actor instead of a white actor.

Yeah because casting a black actor in a main role will really devalue our history....

Your spitting out a load of crap Arista but you're not backing it up. Ange has provided solid facts but you're just assuming that you know best again.

If I'm honest I think this has got means more to you then 'historical inaccuracies'.

No Way will he Devalue this.

But History needs to look right

You will not see a Mobile Phone in it,
for example.


If this is Crap
why waste your time on this thread?

.....There's no mobiles in Robin Hood, Like Ange said there's been black people in England since 150 AC is it so unbelievable that we wouldn't see a black person in Robin Hood?

I think you've just got an issue with the fact that a black person is playing a typically 'white' role and you're trying to desperately tie it in to some historical agenda which has failed miserably. If I was you i'd just give in because you are looking incredibly foolish.

Why do you think it looks wrong? It's because you think that, not because of any facts say so. Like I've mentioned before, Ange pointed out the fact that black people have been present in England for hundreds of years is it so implausible that one of Robin Hood's men could be black? of course it isn't.It's just as usual your using your' Arista' facts to try and force across your argument.

you admitted it yourself, 'it looks wrong' It's not because of any facts it's because YOU think it looks wrong.

It looks wrong to all that know our History.


All the Monks in middle England at that time were White.


It is a Fact that in that Time Zone
Monks in 'Middle England' were white.

This is the BBC going wrong again.

So? at the end of the day it's a light family show, do you spend your time watching Sponge Squarepants to point out the inaccuracies in that too?

What gets me is that this thread wouldn't exist if robin Hood aired on a non BBC channel. It's really annoying Arista, everyone knows you hate BBC and think they are the devil incarnate. There's no use in these threads trying to sway us.

Ultimately if you don't like that fact there's a black person in Robin Hood don't watch it's simple as. Unless you just watch it so you can complain which is ultimately pathetic and sad.

I do not watch it, as a rule,
but Previews have been shown

It is Not light Hearted.



"What gets me is that this thread wouldn't exist if robin Hood aired on a non BBC channel."



You do not know me
and I have stated on this thread I would have posted this
if it was on any other channel


So you are going in Circles
now sadly.

I think History is important
and should not be changed.
No one is being swayed on here.

three words my friend, pot kettle black.

I've brought up new points in each post you've just repeated the same thing over and over like you always do, it's not gonna make us agree with you. Come back with a real argument because I'm actually embarrased for you.

You've been disproved mate, look back a few pages there were these things called facts that were posted. You've just thrown around your own opinion and made it like it's the law. Then again that's what you always do so I shouldn't be surprised.

I am not your mate.

about a Monk in "Middle England"
so far back in time.
