ROBOT OF SHERWOOD

Clara and her two imaginary friends are taken prisoners by equally imaginary
robots disguised as medieval knights. Feeling the onset of schizophrenia, eh,
Clara?
Series: 8
Episode: 3
Executive Producers: Steven Moffat, Brian Minchin
Producer: Nikki Wilson
Script Editors: David P. Davis, Richard Cookson
Writer: Mark Gatiss
Director: Paul Murphy
Regulars: The Doctor (Peter Capaldi), Clara Oswald (Jenna Louise Coleman)

The Plot: Clara wants to meet Robin Hood, but the Doctor dismiss him as a mythological character. Of course, if he was an imaginary character we wouldn't have this episode, would we?
We Like: The first half is really good, with solid comedy, especially funny is the bit where the Doctor is trying to ascertain wether or not Robin and his merry men are real.
We Dislike: Unfortunately, things become extremely derivative once they meet the Sheriff of Nottingham and his plans for world domination. It's basically The Time Warrior all over again.
Rating: 2
