Here you go mate - really great collection - subtitles available on all of them. And chapters are broken up really well.

aarggh! typed a massive post here and accidentally closed the window!

TLDR version from memory:

  • I don't like Digital Theatre coz DRM and ridiculous process with redeeming codes for their Samsung TV app
  • but they're the only way to view the David Tennant / Catherine Tate Much Ado, which is glorious but shouldn't be your first Much Ado

  • Globe DVDs are awesome but expensive, cheaper at Amazon
  • Sometimes they show them on Sky Arts in the UK... set up an alert at Sky Never Miss which is a service I helped set up and maintain when I worked there as a DevOps Engineer

  • BBC Productions from the Seventies have aged better than you might expect and had some great casting of actors who have become a great deal more famous since then. My wife got me this amazing box set of all of them which seems expensive but for 37 discs is actually great value.

  • not ashamed to admit I love the Branagh films like Much Ado and Henry V
  • Henry V was my first real encounter with Shakespeare... fell in love instantly while watching the Prologue with Derek Jacobi as the Chorus, lighting a match in the darkness has he prays for a 'muse of fire'...

    Oh well, that's pretty much what I said which far less superfluous words!

The BBC productions from the 80s are really great performances.
