Rats or riches - it's a tough choice deep in the heart of England.

Dine with the rats in the dungeon or reap the rewards of siding with the Sheriff.

The black knights are congregating at Nottingham Castle to sign a secret pact supporting the menacing Sheriff (Keith Allen).

But Robin Hood and his merry band are confident they can defeat the Sheriff's plans to dethrone the King.

Robin (Jonas Armstrong) and his outlaws ingeniously disguise themselves as minstrels to infiltrate the feast before the knights declare their allegiance.

With the outlaws cunningly disguised as entertainers, Robin is able to confront one black knight in particular - the Sheriff of Winchester (Denis Lawson) - and persuade him to turn against his comrades.

But the very sinister, charming and ruthless Winchester is playing a very cagey game amongst the rats and the riches.

Winchester also wants the beautiful Marian (Lucy Griffiths).

Is Sir Guy of Gisborne (Richard Armitage) prepared to risk his life and the spoils of war to save Marion from Winchester's contemptible deeds?

Robin Hood certainly is...!
