Henry IV, Part 1 (1990, Michael Bogdanov) part 1 of 17

[TheImpossibleMan]

any reason they refer to him as Harry Le Roy? obv he uses that name in Henry V but why here, obviously it's a fake name

I did see Absent Friends back in the late eighties on CBC or TVO in Ontario, Canada. They used to show a large number of BBC etc productions of plays.

Prologue song? Not sure if that's working for this.

[LancasterKnight90]

o wait its the ballad of harry le roy not henry le roy

[LancasterKnight90]

nevermind i found out the last line to that part. but the second part im unsure of the song is called the Ballad of Henry Le Roy

[LancasterKnight90]

i like the song sung in the beginning i cant make out the last part though i kno its

come all you good people who would hear a song

of men bold of men brave of men weak of men strong

of a king who was mighty but while as a boy

the last line i cant make out can anyone tell me the lyrics?

Thanks again SAM, another great production almost impossible to find elsewhere.

Has anyone here got the Mark Rylance Richard II, which I know has been recorded but I am unable to locate on DVD?

[ShakespeareAndMore]

there are some postings here on YouTube of the Mark Rylance Richard II. You might want to contact that poster. A commercially issued DVD of the production is not available, of course.

Never seen "Absent Friends " available in any media. It was produced for BBC2 and aired 29 September 1985.....Virtually the only BBC stuff picked up by public TV and aired on this side of pond are the top-shelf 'premier' productions of classic plays or famous casts.
