Here's another simple game, like 'twenty questions' or 'animal, vegetable, mineral'. One person thinks of a character, object or place from Robin of Sherwood, then everyone else has to guess it. You can only ask questions that can be answered with a yes or no (although the person answering can add to that, or answer differently if they want or if it's more accurate). The person answering can only chose people, things or places that appear in the show, so no places that are just mentioned. Objects should be named, or if a mundane item, at least relevant to the plot, so you can't just have 'bow'. Characters without a name but who are played by one actor and who appear in the credits are allowed, so not 'Norman soldier'. Animals and mystical beings that have names are allowed. No actors, only characters.
When questioning, try and wait for at least one other person to ask a question before you ask another (although if no one asks in a day or so, go ahead and ask again). However, if you ask a question and then want to guess at the answer, you can do that right away. If you guess wrong you should wait for someone else to have a turn before you question or guess again. Whoever guesses right is the next person to chose the character, object or place.
