Archery contest won by suspicious hooded man

A recent Archery contest held on Exmoor was won by a previously unknown competitor clothed in green tights and a hood.

At an International Target Rules Competition (4 metre diameter targets, 70 metres away), local Archery Judge Andrew Chitty said "I've never seen anything like it – he even set fire to the tip of his arrows at one point!"

The hooded man who simply entered his name as 'Robin', decimated the rest of the field cheered on by an entourage including a fat bloke dressed as a monk and a lanky chap calling himself Little Ron.

Strangely enough, Tony Robinson appeared later dressed in a Sheriff's outfit flanked by Gary and Graeme who later commented "what a thoroughly nice chap that Robin bloke was."
