Sam Troughton: Much

Quotes 

• Robin Hood : We take the castle. We claim it under King Richard. We put Isabella under house arrest, we release the supplies, we release the men. And we hold that castle till King Richard returns.

  Much : We can't take a castle!

  Guy of Gisborne : We can if we go down the tunnel. When the old Sheriff returned from his failed mission in the holy lands, he became paranoid about repercussions. So he built himself an escape route. A tunnel. The diggers were silenced, I made sure of that. So no one else knows about the tunnel, especially not Isabella. It starts here, in a derelict churchyard outside the west gate, and it leads directly into the heart of the castle. I say we go down the tunnel, we seize Isabella, and we force her to dismiss her guards. If we take Isabella, we take the castle.

  Robin Hood : If we time the break-in to coincide with the supply train leaving, most of the guards will be busy with the convoy anyway.

  Kate : Count me out. I don't trust him!

  Little John : How do we know this isn't a trap?

  Guy of Gisborne : Because we want the same thing.

  Kate : Since when have you cared about our people?

  Guy of Gisborne : I don't. I just want Isabella. She betrayed me to Prince John and I intend to make her pay.

  Kate : Now THAT sounds more like the Gisborne we all know and loathe!

  Robin Hood : That's enough! We go through the tunnel! And that's my final word. Gisborne is one of us now. Our fate is his.

• Robin Hood : All of this needs to be made into arrow heads.

  Much : Robin.

  Robin Hood : We're running out of time.

  Much : Robin!

  Robin Hood : Where's Tuck and John with those tools?

  Much : She's gone. Kate.

  [to Allan] 

  Much : You say something?

  Allan A Dale : Why is it always my fault?

  Much : We got to find her.

  Robin Hood : Much, Kate can look after herself. She's got a family to protect, we've got a castle to take.

• Little John : TRAITOR!

  [Choking Allan] 

  Little John : What did you tell them, Judas?

  Tuck : It's all over Nottingham. Allan's been pardoned by the Sheriff for services rendered.

  Allan A Dale : WHAT?

  Robin Hood : John, let him go.

  Allan A Dale : Let me speak!

  Little John : Oh, yeah, you're good at that, aren't you? Speaking, lying...

  Robin Hood : John! John, come on! Let him go.

  Tuck : Come on.

  Little John : [as he's pulled off Allan]  Liar!

  Robin Hood : [to Allan]  All right?

  Allan A Dale : I have done anything! I swear, I haven't betrayed you! Much!

  [Much stares stony faced] 

  Allan A Dale : ... You believe me, Guy. Tuck? Robin. So you think I'm a coward? Is that it, yeah? What, that I've... sold you out to save myself somehow, yeah?

  Much : You've done that before.

  Allan A Dale : I know. And EVERY DAY I wish I could take that back, you know that! None of you? None of you believe me?... I'll be off, then.

  Much : No. You tell her about the tunnel?

  Allan A Dale : I told you, I haven't said...

  Robin Hood : Tie him up!

  Allan A Dale : What? No, no, no, no.

  Robin Hood : I can't take the risk.

  Allan A Dale : Robin.

  Robin Hood : Once we have secured the castle we will come back and we will sort this out.

  Allan A Dale : John, don't do this.

  Robin Hood : ...get it done.

• Much : I KNEW IT WOULD BE A TRAP!

  Robin Hood : Much... let me think.

• Much : There's no way out.

  Robin Hood : There's always a way out, Much.

  Much : So this is how it ends. This is how we die, buried in limestone. Hardly fair, is it?

  Robin Hood : If one of us can reach the top, we can hold out longer. Much, come here. Gisborne, get on our shoulders.

  Much : No! It's got to be you, Robin! You're the one who has to live! It has to be you.
