A Fine Reference Collection
One of the BBC's most ambitious projects: a 'complete works' of Britain's greatest literary figure. The performances are a little outdated, but it is extraordinary to have all the plays available (other than those which subsequently came to light). A specially good feature is the subtitles, which make the odd archaic word clear, and gives the spelling if a dictionary has to be used!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Excellent value and quality
I bought the complete plays of Shakespeare for a Christmas present for my husband. He is delighted with them and will spend many happy hours watching them. The acting is superb, but then it’s the BBC.s as it used to be actors, a joy to see a very young Derrick Jacobi and other actors who we have become familiar with over the years. An excellent buy.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

A thorpoughly well done tribute to the world's greatest playwright. In my opinion.
As a teaching aid this must be hugely useful; full text versions, spoken well enough that every word is clear. Some of the performances are not the best; some are wonderful. With today's technical advances a similar project would be much more spectacular and 'filmic'. But this will do until such a set comes along to supplant it.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Great value
Exactly as described. All discs present. Not had a chance to watch it yet but getting the full set of Shakespeare plays for just over 30 quid is fantastic value.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Shakespeare Done Right as Rain
A whole lot of entertainment included in that box. Not just hours, but days and weeks of first-class performances from the best of the best in the British film and television industry. This is the benchmark in modern Shakespeare.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Excellent productions true to Shakespeare with numerous top actors and actresses well known in the nineties.
Some of these actors/actresses give very impressive performances. You can indeed imagine watching these productions on stage in theatre or globe.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
