About this episode
Scottish actor and TV staple Mark Bonnar gets down and dirty with 'Hamlet', in particular the "Rogue and peasant slave" speech from Act 2, Scene 2: He talks about the intricate beauty of iambic pentameter verse, argues against the common misconception that Shakespeare is inaccessible and explains why he's never played the eponymous character. A far cry from 'Line of Duty' and 'Guilt', this is a truly exceptional stage actor in his theatrical element!
Hosted by Lucy Eaton, star of lockdown smash-comedy Staged (BBC/Netflix/Staged), West End actress and theatre producer. Other episodes include The Crown's Freddie Fox, Miranda's Patricia Hodge OBE and Hamilton's Giles Terera.
