[Untitled][edit]

The character of Alan A'Dale was indeed played by actor Peter Hutchinson in the 1980s UK TV show, but I don't think it was the US politician that the link goes to!

No reference to Robin and the Seven Hoods? Greatest Rat Pack movie ever, and Bing Crosby of all people playing Alan A. Dale! Yes its not a straight version, but at least it ought to be mentioned in the popular culture section or whatever it is called! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.34.50.102 (talk) 04:39, 6 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Real-life character[edit]

He is described here as a relatively recent (16th century) addition to the legend. I heard that he was confirmed as one of the genuine original Merry Men, known as Alan Dale. I don't know if there's any new research that might be added to this page. Valetude (talk) 01:25, 4 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
