best things about bbc's robin hood

1. Richard Armitage in black leather
2. Hilariously anachronistic costumes and dialogue in quasi-historical setting
3. Insertion of moral ambiguity into cut-and-dried legend that normally resembles morality play
4. Dubious but wonderful premise that hooded cloak serves as universally adequate disguise
5. "We are Robin Hood" - friendship, loyalty and ridiculously intricate plots and plans
6. Kick-butt Marian who has romantic tension with both Robin and Guy
