The feature-length combination of the first two episodes of Richard Carpenter’s fanciful retelling of the Robin Hood legend, Robin Of Sherwood, airs on ITV, starring Michael Praed and Nickolas Grace, and featuring a very modern musical treatment by Irish band Clannad. Infusing the familiar tale with elements of Pagan mythology, this proves to be one of the most enduring and influential takes on Robin Hood, and finds international popularity. (Repeats both in the UK and internationally will air the two parts of the story separately.)
The third episode of Richard Carpenter’s fanciful retelling of the Robin Hood legend, Robin Of Sherwood, airs on ITV, starring Michael Praed, Mark Ryan, Judi Trott, and Nickolas Grace. John Abineri (Doctor Who, Blake’s 7) guest stars as Herne the Hunter.
NBC premieres the first part of its continuation of Kenneth Johnson’s alien invasion epic, V: The Final Battle. Heavily retooled without Johnson’s involvement, V is now focused on action and special effects spectacle, with in-fighting among the glamorous leaders of the Visitors providing a prime-time soap vibe.
NBC premieres the second part of its continuation of Kenneth Johnson’s alien invasion epic, V: The Final Battle. The birth of Robin’s alien-hybrid children is one of the genre cliffhangers of the decade. This marks the science fiction soundtrack debut of Dennis McCarthy, who later goes on to score most of the Star Trek spinoffs of the next three decades; he is tapped at a very late stage (mere days prior to broadcast) to rescore the entire miniseries – so late, in fact, that it’s ultimately impossible for him to redo the music for the first night in the time allotted.
NBC premieres the third and final part of its continuation of Kenneth Johnson’s alien invasion epic, V: The Final Battle. Now bearing little resemblance to the story Johnson originally hoped to tell with the sequel, the three-night event scores enough in the all-important Nielsen TV ratings to convince NBC to order a weekly series to be produced in time for 1984’s fall TV season.
