Does anyone know where I can check if it was ever aired in Portugal? I've tried googling with different keywords but can't find anything relevant. Which may be relevant in itself, or maybe not.
It's the strangest thing! I don't remember RoS at all from when I was young and I have a pretty good memory for what I used to watch, and especially like, back then. I think there's basically no chance I ever watched it back then, which also means there's little chance it was aired here at all (we had only 2 TV channels... more like 1 and a half!)
But at the same time it just feels so familiar! Like that commemorative coin with a Little John that bears so much resemblance to Clive Mantle and my immediate reaction was "Yep, that's the real LJ, that's it, that's what my default LJ looks like. Same thing for Friar Tuck, when I discovered RoS I had that same immediate reaction that this was my real, default FT. My default is usually the first version I've watched of a character, or at least the first one I liked. Oddly enough, I don't get that reaction with the other characters, although I remember the series with Richard Armitage as Gisburne (no, I do not have a thing for Gisburnes, but he was what I remember the most about that one. I can't even remember what it was called... 😔) and feeling that Robin was completely wrong!
I tried asking around and only one of my friends said he remembers it. I don't really trust him in these sort of things, especially because no one else does. But then someone I do trust, who said he doesn't remember it, also said that Friar Tuck and guy with the horns sort of ring a bell but he's not sure how.
It's so weird. I wonder if we're reconstructing memories or what the heck happened.
