I subscribe to the fundamentals of the Shakespeare Authorship Question - but these supposed “code breakers” can make anything translate to anything by converting from one code to another code to another number until they eventually find what they want to. Alexander Waugh has applied just as “logical”/“absurd” codes to the same texts show that it was actually Edward de Vere as the secret message

Robert Crumption couldn't have appeared any more condescending, pompous, arrogant & wretchedly RUDE! What a S.O.B. His argument doesn't always cut the mustard. At 47 minutes he is shown to be gutted, which was a delightful end to part 1. 😊

Other playwrights of the era were far more prolific than was Shakespeare. Two plays a year was nothing.

William Shakespeare the actor was the son of illiterate parents and his children were also illiterate. There are only about six records of William Shakespeare's own handwriting, all his signatures which are terrible & it appears that he only learned to write his name. There is no record of William Shakespeare actually owning any books. It is probable that William Shakespeare the actor was also illiterate himself and could not possibly be the author of the works in his name.

@Jeffhowardmeade

Not a single thing you wrote is true, except the part about the books. We have no records of anything he owned besides the sword he left his friend and the bed he left his wife. His older daughter was definitely literate and his father was the town mayor and a justice of the peace. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. And his signatures (as well as three pages of a play in his handwriting which you forgot to mention) all look just fine if you can read 16th Century handwriting.

Who truly authored Shakespeare's works? Is William Shakespeare a pen name, and do we want to delve into the secrets and darker aspects of his past life? Do we wish to uncover the mysteries and shadowy aspects of William Shakespeare's life, or whether he was indeed a pseudonym?

I wouldn't look at what is possible. Possibilities are endless. You have to get a feel for what precisely the man himself would think. A person's brain does a thing. It leads you places. Yours, mine, and Shakespeare. He had to learn everything piece by piece. He would repeat processes learned as time unfolds. You should not study Shakespeare as a static human being, but rather as an evolving human being. His codes should have improved over time. Maybe I'll spend some time on this myself.

If I was an English person, I'd defend against this surmise with every fiber of my being. As an American who loves Shakespeare's works, I can only say that nothing positive can come from Mr. Amundsen's efforts. If false, he is a hack trying to rile up people enough to sell a few books. If true? A cause for sorrow. I wouldn't want to hear the like of a Lessing or a Faulkner was a fraud, and that their great works were done by someone else.

No mention of Edward de Vere the most popular choice apparently. Right at the end of the series a dude says if you have an idea of what you want to see you ll see it. The degree of work required in covering up and revealing the identity of Shakespeare is just ridiculous. The project is trash tv.

If he were, he would know that Isaac Jaggard's print shop was using type cast in France, where the language has no W. Hence he used two Vs to make uppercase Ws and ran out of those, hence his use of lowercase Vs to make the rest of the Ws in the poem opposite the engraving of Shakespeare. He would not make the claim that printers circa 1623 rarely made typographical errors, when in fact they would make corrections mid print run, but would still use the misprints, which were too valuable to toss. Books printed in the early 17th Century are typically RIDDLED with errors, and were typeset by teams of compositors who often spelled words different ways.
