Margaret of Gisburne

Lady Margaret of Gisburne is the mother of Sir Guy of Gisburne and appears in the episode, "The Cross of St. Ciricus."

Because of a serious illness, she goes to Croxden Abbey to possibly find a cure there. On the way her carriage is ambushed by robbers, Robin Hood and his men come to her aid. Knowing of the enmity between her son and the unlawful, she hides who she really is. When she was afraid of dying that night, however, she made confession with Brother Tuck. Tuck learns that Sir Guy is the secret son of the Earl of Huntingdon and thus Robin's half-brother.

When Lady Margaret is surprised by her son while praying in the abbey, she is horrified to find that he wants to steal the cross of St. Ciricus. She can't stop him. In turn, she learns from the abbot of the monastery that Robin Hood is the son of the Earl of Huntingdon and then confesses to her savior that he and Guy are brothers.
