Sherwood is a British crime drama series that explores the deep-seated tensions within a former mining community in Nottinghamshire. When two shocking murders occur in quick succession, the killings expose long-buried secrets and reopen old wounds that have festered since the miners' strikes of the 1980s. The investigation brings together local police officers who must navigate a community divided by historical grievances, where loyalties run deep and trust is scarce. Set against the backdrop of the legendary Sherwood Forest, the series weaves together past and present, examining how decades-old betrayals and conflicts continue to haunt the residents. The show delves into themes of class division, community breakdown, and the lasting impact of industrial decline on working-class towns. Written by James Graham and inspired by real events, Sherwood presents a gripping mystery while offering a profound social commentary on the fractures within British society and the enduring scars left by political and economic upheaval.
