keep it clean "until the end of this episode". Little does she know exactly what Worksop is sitting on top of. Christmas Special Maid Marian and Much the Mini Mart Manager's Son After his tap-dancing lesson with Barrington, Robin foolishly reveals his identity to the Sheriff, but Much (the Mini Mart Manager's son) has a word and persuades the Sheriff to disperse his guards. Marian is further unimpressed at Much's manipulation of the peasants fear of "the Giant Toad Monster of Stoke-on-Trent" to sell tacky toys. When Guy threatens to leave, King John promises to catch Robin and his gang for him if they could only strengthen their forces. Originally transmitted as one 50 minute episode on 24 December 1993, and repeated as two 25 minute episodes on 20 July and 27 July 2001. This episode can be found as an extra on the series 3 DVD release. Series Four This, the final series of the programme, is in many ways the most bizarre. On the one hand, the comedy became more sophisticated: the roleplaying references in Episode 1, the parodies of English seaside culture in Episode 3 and the Beatles references in Episode 4 are jokes aimed over the heads of a juvenile audience. The appearance of "Clem Costner" is a reference to the Robin Hood films – and the fact that the Costner character is Robin's antithesis is perhaps unsurprising – while the inversion of the entire culture in the final episode demonstrates that nothing is sacred. On the other hand, the comedy also became more juvenile, and there was more slapstick and pie gags than in the other three series combined. Originally transmitted from 5 January to 16 February 1994, with five of the seven episodes repeated (The Wise Woman of Worksop and Voyage to the Bottom of the Forest were not included) from 3 to 31 August 2001. Tunnel Vision: The Sheriff and King John have cooked up a scheme to build a tunnel to Scunthorpe. Meanwhile, Sherwood Forest is in the midst of a gaming craze – with the Merry Men playing "Chronic the Hedgehog" and "Dungeons & Dragons". Rose kidnaps Guy just as his mother appears, and Gary and Graeme wade through a parody of The Crystal Maze with Richard O'Brien stand-in "Robin O'Hood", which leads to the Sheriff losing track of reality and fantasy when presented with the Used Tissue of Invisibility.
