A waste of 90 minutes of my life

A Masterpiece!

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

This show is so feather-light it's on the verge of floating away, and it's essentially silly. But I confess I do watch it occasionally. Not sure why. The show's aim seems to be to be as ditzy as possible without making it a comedy (it's not that funny). The setting - Shakespeare's birthplace, Stratford Upon Avon - is great. It makes for lots of good costumes and batty plots involving thespians, eccentric locals, and tourists. The two leads, playing odd couple private detectives named Shakespeare and Hathaway (get it?) are each as daft as each other. Their camp assistant gets the best lines and gets to dress up and go undercover. And there's a local police detective who must be the dumbest in her profession ever, because the Shakespeare and Hathaway are always solving her cases. She just frowns. Just like in the series Midsomer Murders, it defies belief there would be so many murders in this rural backwater. I really can't see this series lasting very long, because it's so pedestrian and predictable. It won't be up for any awards. Surely it could be a bit wittier and nuanced? I guess the audience don't expect very much.

Please let there be a series 2! I absolutely adore this show and have seen all the episodes. :)

Agree this is wasted in the afternoon deserves a prime time slot. Not everyone wants to watch blood guts and gore or reality TV

Love this show. Wonderful actors and beautiful locations combined with humorous script and twisty plots makes it a joy to watch . Hope for more episodes
