Yet another travesty of a program. Butchering history, drunk on political correctness, content to both speculate about contentious theories (his religious faith) and to simply make stuff up (the cheating on wife, anachronistic dialogue, etc). This is not a tribute to Shakespeare, it is not a celebration of his genius, it is not even an entertaining fantasy: it is a slap in the face. This show proves for the millionth time why postmodernism is cancer and delights in nothing more than spitting on the past, tarnishing tradition, and putting mediocrity on a pedestal - saying it is a brilliant or clever "re-imagining" of the era or some such rot. No, you want to make money - and think this rubbish will appeal to the kiddies. Not so.
