I'm looking forward to the BBC's new series Robin Hood. I loved the old ITV series Robin of Sherwood. I haven't seen that one for many years, so I don't know if it would be worth watching again. I watched Blakes 7 as an adult and it really wasn't very good, so spoilt my childhood memories.
When I saw the BBC's page on its new series I thought that it sounded like they were trying to repeat the success of Doctor Who in putting a lot of budget and creativity into an old story to get a new audience. The Stage had the same idea too.

When I got a Playbook I wanted to use it to listen to BBC iPlayer while doing the washing up. So I made a cardboard tablet stand out of the cardboard you get with new shirts. Recently I came across a video by Jude Pullen showing how to make a right angle joint with card and it inspired me to share what I'd done, via a PDF rather than a video though. The PDF below is for a Playbook but I would have thought that any seven inch tablet, like the Kindle Fire or the Google Nexus 7 would fit. If in the unlikely event they are more chunky than the Playbook, you can just cut the slot wider. It's probably more sturdy if you make it out of a corrugated cardboard. Seven inch tablet stand
