Doctor Who: EVERY NuWho Villain And Monster Ranked Worst To Best

124. Sheriff Of Nottingham

Doctor Who villains
BBC Studios

Appears in: Robot of Sherwood.

Like Darth Vadar, the Joker, and Norman Bates, the name "Sheriff of Nottingham" is synonymous with villainy. Like previous Sheriffs we've seen on screen, Ben Miller's version is a tyrant who plunders villages, kills whoever dare stand up to him, and has a baddie beard for good measure.

The sci-fi element in this particular Robin Hood tale is that the Sheriff and his robot knights are using all of the available pillaged gold to repair the robots' crashed spaceship.

With the ship restored and in the air, and with a practically unbeatable army, the Sheriff would take over Derby, Lincoln... and then the world! But, as we know, there's really only one Sheriff of Nottingham in town: Alan Rickman.

The name's Colbourn, James - yeah, doesn't quite have the same ring to it.
