The Adventures of Robin Hood Season 1 Episode 23: Ladies of Sherwood

A judgement of hanging was given out to a villager who instead of paying taxes gave the money to funding King Richards crusade. To avoid a further embarrassment of losing another prisoner to Robin Hood, the Sheriff restricts entrance into the city to only women. This new challenge will be only one of many as they try to free the villager.

Personal Synopsis

Ladies of Sherwood is a classic drag episode where the guys from the Greenwood must infiltrate the jail to release a villager but in women’s clothing. The daring attempt is complicated by an official from Prince John’s court who competes with the Sheriff about his abilities.
