Being English I have rather a low tolerance for Hollywood's attempts to re-tell the Robin Hood legend - I'm not particularly precious or knowledgeable about the bloke, but US writers' total failure to research, say, the geography of Britain does get my goat.
I haven't seen this latest shindig yet (possibly I never will), but I just thought you might like to know about Mr Crowe's publicity snafu while he was pimping himself over this side of the pond. When appearing on a top arts program he took exception to the presenter commenting on his accent and stormed off. Said presenter comes from Yorkshire which, for those not acquainted with limy geography, is the county next to Nottinghamshire.
