It looks like some of the land surrounding Sherwood Forest is not the domain of The Sheriff of Nottingham.
The miser is Sir William de Courcier. Not only is he rich in silver by collecting the rents from his tenant farmers.
Sir William now wants them to pay twice over as he wants them to pay his taxes owed to the king.
As Sir William has an interest in alchemy. Robin Hood devices a scheme where buttons can be turned into pieces of silver.
A parable of sorts especially as there is a scene where Friar Tuck has to give a long sermon to the villagers.
Laurence Naismith is entertaining as the miser in this comedic episode. Sir William collects so many buttons there are not enough left to keep hold of the clothes he wears.
