Lord Hamlet with His Doublet All Unbrac'd

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

Shakespeare's Hamlet must be one of the best-known plays ever written. The Oxford Book of Quotations devotes eight pages to it, and one American declared it
'nothing but a string of cliches!'
Derek Jacobi takes a lighthearted look at the Bard's longest and probably most abused play.
