BBC launches Robin Hood magazine

BBC Magazines is launching a fortnightly Robin Hood magazine aimed six to 11 year olds. Robin Hood Adventures will be available from October 10.

The magazine will include features about the characters, photo stories and information about weapons and life in the middle ages. Every issue will also have a Robin Hood-inspired cover mount.

Toni Round, joint managing director of BBC Children’s Magazine, says: “With all the inside information from the show, the magazine will give readers a real insight into the life and times of Robin Hood.”

BBC Magazine recently launched Doctor Who Adventures, which also offers inside information on the show and features on the characters and the show’s “secrets” such as how time travel works.
