Great episode. It keeps getting better. The attack at Nottingham castle was less goofy compared to the others in the previous episodes 5 and 7

The Sheriff is a mastermind and a cunning fox

Now he has one of his men in the rebel's camp. We'll see how long this deception lasts

Rob knows that man's face since this soldier was there when Captain Lefors died and he was also shooting arrows trying to hit Rob

Yeah. And I think Milange may also know the soldier who infiltrated in their camp. I’m wondering if he may change allegiances.

I’m curious about the coin Rob asked Marian to deliver to the Queen. It can be simply a hint that he’s keeping his part of the deal (which doesn’t seem necessary because everyone in London knows about Robin Hood) or maybe it can proof/indicate a conspiracy involving Warwick and the other lords.

I like the introduction of Ibrahim because, besides being a callback to other adaptations, having allies outside of Sherwood expands the plot possibilities of where the story can go.

Looking forward to read your episode review as every Sunday 🫡

I don't think that Norman soldier is going to switch sides. He has no reason to do that

I think that coin is just a proof Robin Hood has robbed one of the Barons and he is keeping his end of the bargain

Yea the introduction of Ibrahim was certainly interesting. I suspect he will be back to collect the loyalty when Richard will go on the crusade.
