what a load of shit

[diddymuck]

Patrick Stewart's played Claudius before...with Derek Jacobi as the Dane.

[Ysaedda]

Hamlet was mind-blowing.

[buffscrag]

I can't comment on 'Hamlet' as I haven't seen it yet, but 'Turn Of The Screw' was a hopelessly ham-fisted adaptation of Henry James' classic work. Check out the superb film 'The Innocents' if you want to see what all the fuss is about.

[blackwhimsy]

Why is British television so awesome?

Seriously,you guys make THE best tv.

ABC Australia shows a lot of UK tv,and it never ceases to amaze how fantastic most of it is.

@xMizz09x Really? That's so awesome! I look forward to seeing this version of TOTS...it looks different.

[Wengl3]

There a schedule for christmas day yet? What time's Hamlet airing? :D.

[OnlyOneTyping]

@Wengl3 before Who I expect.

[Wengl3]

Nah, turns out boxing day, 5.05. Can't wait.

The Turn of the Screw looks a tad stagey - or is that because it follows the Hamlet bit.

[applegrassdude]

I literally just said out loud, "ooh, this is weird!" at seeing Hamlet on a screen! It just felt odd to see the exact same stage, with everyone close up. Can't wait though!!

[hiddenrio]

I felt the same - I took it with a grain of salt when they said they were keeping the look and feel of the stage production, but this really looks like the same room (albeit with 4 walls instead of just 1). Very cool.

[azurelikeit1]

It's only just come to British screens after it's stage run yay!

[missingallifreyan]

When does Hamlet air on BBCA? XD

[PeteMP1992]

Hamlet looks good
