#BBCTelevision #Shakespeare move into the second season with #HenryIV part 1. Featuring the same cast as #RichardII plus Anthony Quayle's fulsome and seemingly about to keel over from high blood pressure Falstaff. Very much in the house style, it works 1/2

Second #BBCTelevisionShakespeare experience was the much more carefully constructed #RichardII with Derek Jacobi as Richard, and Charles Gray as the Duke of York, but not that one. Brilliantly staged, doesn't pretend to be anything other than 'made for TV'

The great Alan Howard as Richard II.
I saw this and it resonated even to a dull-minded teen.
‘High-stomached are they both and full of ire,
In rage, deaf as the sea, hasty as fire’

“For God’s sake, let us sit upon the ground
And tell sad stories of the death of kings;
How some have been deposed; some slain in war,
Some haunted by the ghosts they have deposed;
Some poison’d by their wives: some sleeping kill’d;
All murder’d...”

Just curious. Who likes their #Shakespeare done traditionally?
As it was written.
As it was staged.
As it was dressed.
As it was spoken.

A quotation from **Shakespeare**
> GAUNT: His rash fierce blaze of riot cannot last,
> For violent fires soon burn out themselves;
> Small showers last long, but sudden storms are short;
> He tires betimes that spurs too fast betimes;
> With eager feeding food doth choke the feeder;
> […]

Ngl, I might accidentally fall off of a cliff running from a dog. I like dogs but I am a small human and if an animal with teeth runs at me I am not good at standing my ground. This has happened before #printmaking #reliefprint #linoleumrelief #tarotcards #shakespeare #tarot #RichardII #RII
#RichardII was deposed #OnThisDay in 1399; he commissioned the #WiltonDiptych, which some consider the greatest work of English medieval art & deposition inspired one of Shakespeare's greatest plays & one of my favorites:
