Theatre of Blood

Duration: 2 hours, 14 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC One CambridgeshireLatest broadcast: on BBC One Wales

An entertaining, tongue-in-cheek comic horror about the demise of several British theatre critics whose murderer draws inspiration from Shakespeare's plays. The finger of suspicion points at ham actor Edward Lionheart, regularly overlooked for acting awards in the past because of his insistence on appearing only in works by the Bard. The problem for the police is that their prime suspect publicly committed suicide some time ago. Show less
