By right of blood succession.

According to the law of the realm.

Is it of your own free will

that you thus depose your brother...

...Richard the Lion-Heart of England?

Richard no longer exists!

From this moment forward,

I, John, am king of England!

Aren't you a little premature, brother?

Richard! The Lion-Heart!

He's lying! He's an imposter!

- The king lives!

- Men of Sherwood!

Robin Hood!

It's a trick of the outlaws!

Kill him! Seize him!

Did I upset your plans?

You've come to Nottingham

once too often!

When this is over, there'll be

no need for me to come again.

Your sword, Gisbourne.

- Know any prayers, my friend?

- I'll say one for you!

Save yourself, Robin!

The door, quick!

Quick, or I'll trim that beard for you!

But, Richard, Richard! I thought...

- You thought I was murdered!

- Oh, no, no.

I didn't mean to...

After all, Richard, I am your brother.

Yes, sire, he is your brother.

Yes, my brother.

I could forgive you if your treachery

were against me and not my subjects.

I banish you and your followers from

England for the remainder of my lifetime.

Take them away.

See that they leave England.

I further banish from my realm

all injustices and oppressions...

...which have burdened my people.

And I pray that under my rule...

...Normans and Saxons alike

will share the rights of Englishmen.

Long live Richard the Lion-Heart!

What about you, Robin?

My sword is yours,

sire, now and always.

Is there nothing I

can grant the outlaw...

...who showed him

his duty to his country?

Yes, Your Majesty,

a pardon for the men of Sherwood.

Granted with all my heart.

Long live Richard the Lion-Heart!

But is there nothing for yourself?

There's but one thing else, sire.

And do you too wish...?

More than anything in the world, sire.

Kneel, Robin Hood.

Arise, Robin, Baron of Locksley,

Earl of Sherwood and Nottingham...

...and lord of all the lands and manors

appertaining thereto.

My first command to you, my lord earl...

...is to take in marriage

the hand of the Lady Marian.

Long live Robin Hood!

Long live Robin Hood!

Long live Lady Marian!

And what say you to that,

Baron of Locksley?

May I obey all your commands

with equal pleasure, sire!
