The read
The series ran 1 season across 2 episodes and has finished, so there is no cliffhanger risk.
Synopsis
Simon Schama explores the life and times of William Shakespeare to shed a new and fascinating light on some of the greatest plays ever written. He asks the question: "What came first, Englishness, or Shakespeare's idea of it?" and produces a persuasive argument in favour of the latter.
