Anyone else really looking forward to this? Haven't been so excited about a Shakespeare series since I went to see the RSC do the Henriad at the Swan many, many years ago!
Looking forward to it a lot, but when is it on?
Still trying to find out..

WOW!
just saw a trailer which looked good.
great collection of beards on show.
anything with captain picard in it has win written all over it.
It'll help make Shakespeare a bit more accessible to the masses I suppose. People like yourself O'Flashearty.
Personally, I prefer mine unadulterated at The Globe.
😀 @ Darcy!
Not been to the Swan then, eh? 😉 It's superb.
Then again, I do like a trip to the Globe now and again.

Can't wait, I'm a medievalist and the wars of the roses is my period! Really looking forward to this.
Who knows what the significance of "this son of York" is?
