The Hangman

Background

The Hangman is an executioner in England.

During the events of Robin Hood: Men in Tights (1993) played by Robert Ridgely

Before Robin Hood's hanging, The Hangman asks him what his neck size is. The Abbot arrives with the Sheriff of Rottingham and then Marian is walked to the aisle by Prince John. The Abbot gives a prayer in pig Latin before starting the wedding ceremony. When The Abbot finds out that the Sheriff's name is Mervyn, he laughs, along with the Wedding Guests. As Marian is about to say ado, Ahchoo shoots the rope, freeing Robin from his noose. The Villagers arrive and a fight breaks out between the Merry Men and Prince John's soldiers. After Robin frees himself from his noose, The Hangman tells him no noose is good noose.
