    • Kevin Costner is how most people imagine Robin Hood. Big bucks and a lot of Hollywood hype turned 'Robin Hood - Prince of Thieves' into a box-office blockbuster around the world. Perhaps the best thing that can be said about it is that even the actors began to realise how corny the whole thing was, and by the end of the film they were parodying themselves. Old Cliffie has to admit, though, that there are some great action scenes with impressive photography.

    • Old Cliffie is always ready to sit down with the little Clavens when they want to watch Disney's 'Robin Hood'. It's a gem of a film, unremitting fun, with no really evil characters to scare the tots and enough action to keep their more bloodthirsty older brothers and sisters happy. There's a definite innocence about this 1973 film, totally geared to a younger audience, unlike the annual animated features that the Disney studio began to churn out in the 1990s.

    • Real Madrid, Benfica, Inter Milan, Ajax Amsterdam, Bayern Munich, Liverpool, AC Milan - and Nottingham Forest? Yes the local football team is in there with Europe's soccer greats, as one of the teams that have won the continent's premier club competition, the European Cup, in successive seasons. Forest managed it in 1979 and 1980. It's been pretty much downhill since then.....

     You're right after discovering that there is no medieval castle to admire the Olde Trip is a conveniently close piece of history to enjoy :).
