Crossbow is a 1980s television version of the [[Myth/WilliamTell William Tell legend]]. It was created by Creator/AnthonyHorowitz. The first episode hews pretty close to the original legend, and the rest of the series follows the adventures of Will and his son Matthew continuing to fight the tyrannical Gessler.

* GirlOfTheWeek: A character in "The Bet" played by {{Creator/HonorBlackman}} seems very fond of Gessler, cheering him on in the bet and challenging him to a riding competition. She is thoroughly enjoyable, and would have made a great DarkMistress, but we [[OneShotCharacter never see her again]]. Strangely, she doesn't even get a name.
