We are two episodes in and already BBC One's new drama, Sherwood, is creating a stir. Back on our screens tonight, Monday, June 20, fans are eagerly awaiting the third instalment of the fictional crime show.
Sherwood, which has been created by award-winning Nottinghamshire writer James Graham (whose previous achievements include Finding Neverland), is a six-part series inspired by real-life events in a Nottinghamshire village. The fictional story centres around two shocking and unexpected killings, a massive manhunt and historic community divisions.
Set in the county, there's obviously local interest in the series. However, last week some viewers got hot under the collar after Nottingham Forest was referred to as Notts Forest, and others picked up on the accents in the show which had fans divided over whether or not they were authentic.
