In 2367, the entity known as Q transported the senior officers of the USS Enterprise-D into a recreation of the 12th century setting and the story of Robin Hood in an attempt to teach Captain Picard a lesson about love. During the reenactment, Picard had to choose whether to let Maid Marian (Vash) die or risk his crew's lives trying to rescue her from Nottingham Castle. (TNG: "Qpid" ) The interiors of the castle were filmed on Paramount Stage 16 and Paramount Stage 8. Alnwick Castle was used to portray the wide shot.
