She's right about the witches in Macbeth. The witches aren't in it as much as you'd expect; quite a lot of it's about ordinary murder. Seems a shame to introduce witches and then make all the murders normal with just knives and swords. Maybe if Shakespeare had thought a bit harder...

Like how much easier school was back then - because they didn't have to study Shakespeare Agreed - don't watch while eating drinking.

I ended up snorting coffee through my nose I was laughing so hard. Cunk's take on Shakespeare reminds me of Anna Russell's spoofs on Wagner. However, despite the LOL irreverence, Clayton's right: you do come away learning new stuff.
