Robin Hood tucks back into BBC America with third season
The third and final season of Robin Hood is set to hit BBC America Saturday, Sept 12 at 9pm E.T./P.T. The original BBC production kept the classic character in the correct period and location, but it "Buffy'd" the show up a little with younger actors and occasional soapy plot elements intermixed with the required action.
Not very much to report today. Just redheads in The Telegraph , and our last Rochester gets a mention: And male redheads are an increasingly distinguished tribe, not least the incredibly sexy Damian Lewis and Toby Stephens .

Freed in a prisoner exchange after 14 months of captivity in North Korea, 007 becomes a rogue agent tracking the connection between a loose-cannon North Korean colonel , a wunderkind entrepreneur named Gustav Graves , and the trade of African conflict diamonds outlawed by the United Nations.
Who could keep it up for three hours?
Not Wallace Shawn's priapic professor, though he dazzles trying. Elsewhere, a despairing Doll's House and a very watchable The Observer 'Not liberation but despair': Christopher Eccleston as Kelman and Gillian Anderson as Nora in A Doll's House.
