Five talks reflecting some of the new insights in Shakespeare scholarship as they are applied to the history plays that form the basis for Vivat Rex broadcast on Radio 4. 2: The Henry VI Trilogy: History into Drama
Emrys Jones, Fellow of Magdalen College and Reader in English in the University of Oxford, suggests why the three Henry VI plays were, in their time, such an exceptionally ambitious theatrical venture, creating a new kind of drama: the secular history play.

in conversation with Martin Esslin (Part 2)
When Elisabeth Bergner came to this country in 1933, she recreated for English audiences in the theatre and cinema the legendary position she had won in Germany. There were films like Escape Me Never and As You Like It, in which she played Rosalind, and which was one of the first films to be made from a Shakespeare play, In the second of two programmes she talks to Martin Esslin , former Head of BBC Radio Drama, about her career in this country - about J. M. Barrie who wrote his last play specially for her, about her stormy relationship with Bernard Shaw and she tells of a particularly memorable meeting with Beckett.
