    What an amazing piece of TV from the BBC.

    The first two episodes aired Monday & Tuesday and four more to come over the next two Mondays & Tuesdays.

    They are up on the iPlayer if you missed them.


    Set in a Nottinghamshire mining village at the heart of Sherwood lie two shocking and unexpected killings that shatter an already fractured community and spark a massive manhunt.

    Episode 3 has some seriously powerful acting a blood great show from the BBC.


    A series showing the effects of a strike that happened 30 years previously in a week that Britian could begin it's worst strikes in 40 years.

    Have to agree, the acting is fantastic, that scene with the 2 sisters!

    It's brilliant, thought tonight's episode was the best so far, definitely agree with the scene between the sisters, great acting all round.

    Two fantastic actresses.

    Claire Rushbrook is seriously underrated, she is in a rather lovely film called Ali & Ava (with Adeel Akhtar who is also in Sherwood)

    Sherwood is what I would call real drama not like the rubbish ones lately, feels like Nesbitt appearing in them all. I cant look at anything he is in. The fact that it's based around a true story and has old footage of the strikes adds to it too.

    Just realized I've an hour of Andy Murray recorded. 😫 Was moved to BBC 2. Raging I was enjoying it.

    Excellent again!

    Fairly crappy treatment by BBC, they only threw a ticker tape across the screen to say it was on BBC2 and it had started at that stage. Rare occasion I was actually sitting down to watch it at the right time, rather than on time delay as usual or I’d have been raging. They could have moved the tennis, there was a break in play to close the roof at 8:55, so would have made sense. I’d say there will be a lot of people missed it.

    Same happened to me. I was absolutely distraught. Is there any way of watching last night's episode? I can't get the BBC iPlayer.

    It's the bally ballyness of it that makes it all seem so bally bally.

    Like others I recorded last nights episode later to realise I recorded tennis instead. Im lost tonight watching it as I missed episode 5.

    I was really enjoying this series and now its ruined. Why couldnt they have put the tennis on BBC2 last night instead! Im so annoyed.

    Excellent series really enjoyed it. There’s going to be another series, I wonder what angle will they use? Does anyone know what was the secret his wife was hiding? I must have missed it.

    I think it was mentioned in episode 5? I thought her father/family was abusive (she discussed it with Kevin in the pub)

    I just watched episode six as the tennis recorded here also, probably my least favourite episode tbh but still very enjoyable. Looking forward to the next series.

    Just catching this now as it's being shown on RTE. Episode four. Superb stuff. The historical miners' strike stuff brings a brilliant dimension.

    Edit: just finished the episode. Wow, incredible.

    Very late to this but what a series. Really excellent. Kevin Doyle is some actor, between this and Happy Valley, it's clear he was very much wasted 'downstairs' in Downton Abbey.

    I wonder what the 2nd series will focus on and if it will feature many of the same characters.

    Only finished watching series 1 today, hadn't heard of this show before, really enjoyed it. Had been watching a few documentaries on the coal miners stikes recently so this tied in nicely with those goings on. Looking forward to series 2.

    I see lots of online complaints that it's not as good as Season One so far. It's a different story completely so I'll give it more time to develop. Too early to make a judgement after 2 episodes other than to say that Lorraine Ashbourne (Daphne Sparrow) and Monica Dolan (Ann Branson) have been fantastic.

    I thought the lot would have been released on iPlayer after episode 1, it's painful watching it week to week.

    Watched episode 1 of the new series, initially I was a bit confused on some of the strands and inter relationships it's been a long time since series 1! But it was really solid, interested to see how things unfold.

    In an already stacked cast, the new additions are interesting, Monica Dolan really is one of the very best around, I never thought a conversation involving parsnips would be so riveting!

    I enjoy these gritty, northern, BBC dramas like Happy Valley and Sherwood. They always carry interesting twists and turns in the plots. We've got the final episode of S2 left to watch this evening.

    Just finished this now. Lorraine Ashbourne and Monica Dolan should be hoovering up awards for their performances. The air of menace was ever present.

    A few plot holes but overall it kept me invested to the very end. I see a third series has been commissioned.

    It's very well acted and shot but the amount of plot holes was slightly ridiculous. Still enjoyed it but not as good as S1
