BBC One Sherwood locations as Ashfield mentioned in show

Ashfield keeps getting mentioned on BBC One's new drama Sherwood. That's because it focuses on two unlinked murders and is set in the village of Annesley Woodhouse, in the district of Ashfield, in 2004.

The show is fictional but is inspired in part by two murders that took place in Nottinghamshire, which is where writer James Graham grew up.

The first episode of the six-part drama aired on BBC One on Monday (June 13) night at 9pm, with the next episode airing at the same time on Tuesday (June 14) night. The show features Joanne Froggatt, David Morrissey and Lesley Manville among others.
