How to make butter at home very easily...

I've been following [livejournal.com profile] kayotickitchen's recipes and photography for some time and her recipes sound usually very tasty indeed (ifa bit too precise for my liking but each to their own) but this is a fantastic revelation.
Too bad I don't have a food processor (at least not a big one) or I would try this.

That wasn't too bad, actually, certainly much better than the recent incarnation of Robin Hood. Historical accuracy is irrelevant with an essentially fictitious background so as a fantasy story, this worked. A little modern perhaps, especially in terms of language, but it's mainly aimed at kids so that works.
It's good to see Anthony Head again and most of the other actors work well, too.
My main gripe is that Merlin gets away with too much. A random farm boy acting like that towards the King's son is not going to live very long and won't get away with a day in the stocks.
Oh, and I wonder if Howard Shore is going to sue, there were a few bits towards the end which were very similar to some of the LotR score, starting with the song "Lady Helen" sang. I briefly wondered if my TV had randomly switched to Channel 4...
