Some fans even drew similarities to iconic gangster movie The Godfather.
Taking to X, one posted: “What is this? The Godfather? #sherwood is losing it.”
Another added: “This is a tad too violent, not sure I can cope with it… #Sherwood.”
While a third chimed in: “Well that escalated quickly #Sherwood.”
As a fourth shared: “Ramped up the violence and foul language. #Sherwood.”
Yet another commented: “#sherwood Awful and gratuitously violent; a graphic shooting and a close up of blood oozing on a corpse at 9:30 on a Sunday night.
“What happened to Sunday night drama? We need no expansion of gun culture in the UK. We are not USA.”
Sherwood takes place in a Nottinghamshire mining village, where two murders added to an already divisive history.
In particular, tensions from the 1984-1985 Miners’ Strike have remained in the decades since.
The show’s fictionalised events began with former union activist Gary Jackson (Alum Armstrong) being murdered.
While the story itself had been loosely based upon the real life murder of trade unionist Keith Frogson in 2004.
