For all you fans of men in tights shooting baddies with bows and arrows - the wait is almost over!



The Ridley Scott Hollywood blockbuster Robin Hood starring Russell Crowe is being released in cinemas across the UK tomorrow on Wednesday, 12 May.



The film makers found the perfect location for their epic adventure right here in Wales in Pembrokeshire.



The National Trust's beach at Freshwater West was used to help create a major battle scene in the film.



600 extras and 150 horses staged an impressive Robin Hood battle scene on the beach which represented the south coast of England, where a climactic battle scene complete with longboats and medieval landing craft took place right on the beach.
