    Bottom says, "I don't know why they're talking to themselves, to my experience means things are going to start going very wrong." (While breaking the 4th wall, talking to nobody within the play. What a card!)

      @@HampsteadOwl There are plenty of actors who don't have any real range, and certainly not this type of range. Many of the most popular ones play essentially the same role in each thing they're in. She was doing this and GoT concurrently (along with a bunch of other roles).

    To turn what is effectively ‘the life, times & works of the Bard’ into a sitcom is nothing short of genius. Like it or not, Leftie Ben is fast becoming our next national treasure.

      @@OBWanKenobi Yeah, I know. The word ‘genius’ & ‘legend’ is banded about far too liberally these days & Elton’s not always my cup of tea (especially as I’m a Stewart Lee fan, too) but, he DOES have a good body of work behind him that’s rather difficult to ignore, I feel.
      Shakespeare was the bane of my, and every other schoolboys, life - and ‘Upstart Crow’ DID help make his work more understandable, accessible, relatable (insert other banal adjective, as it suits), etc. so, I reluctantly gotta give credit where credit’s due.

    I don't like Ben Elton's political stance but he does write very funny dialogue fed from Will Shakespere's original texts. Perhaps the only truly funny comedy to come from the BBC in many a year.

      ‘Credit where credit’s due’ kinda guy, eh! Good chap. I agree. In much the same way I think Liam Gallagher’s an arsehole but I don’t let it stop me from enjoying a bit of Oasis! Also, I think the Bard would’ve approved.

      the show was recorded before a studio audience. it’s not a fake laugh track - but the audio of the laughter is sometimes edited a little abruptly.

      @@MichaelKingsfordGray NOT correct. Back then it was called "pc". Dumb@ss It was a perjorative invented by the right to disparage the group think of the left. The irony it served only to highlight the group think of the right was lost on them of course. You could never accuse the right of having any insight into their revolting behaviour. Some of them still think Pinochet and Reza Pahlavi were the good guys.

      Naturally, it would be someone with your worldview to have such limited cognitive capacity that they fail to comprehend the other 98% of the humour.
