I wish that they would make more series of Upstart Crow. It was brilliant on all sorts of levels, not least because of the way they wove contemporary themes into the historical narrative, just as Shakespeare did.

As a worshipper of Shakespeare, I must praise and give kudos to writer Ben Elton for this oh-so en pointe satire, which is so intricately intertwined with today’s social goings-on. Lest I may sound remiss, the actors are on fire!! Amazing and out-of-this-world!! More, please!!🥰

I love this so much! Who does the writing? Obviously the delivery is spot on and I won’t waste my time trying to express how utterly funny he _always_ is as the bard because I could never ever come up with something within 0.10^-6% of how amusing he would be describing himself. Sorry but I’m in the middle of a migraine disease attack trigged by the extreme (on no, global climate change isn’t happening (I discussed the changes in southeastern Michigan winters with my Grandmother c. 1981 and she agreed) (and my husband was part of an international experiment in which he was a member of one of the 40 teams of researchers manipulating CO2 levels in stands of trees around the world in the early to mid 1990s)) (that was caused by a migraine symptom believe it or not) heat, humidity and thunderstorms !
