RSC Friends

Look out for a new series on Sky Arts 1 beginning Saturday 28th May
 
In love with Shakespeare – a series of short films throughout May and June in which renowned actors recite their favourite Shakespeare monologues. The first 30 minute film on Saturday whisks through who is doing what. Afterwards there appear to be 5 minute slots at 1.55pm starting Wednesday 1st June.
 
Names include Samuel West, Catherine Tate, John Simm, Robert Lindsay, Simon Callow and Stephen Campbell-Moore (Friends, Romans, Countrymen).

Although this is hardly a prime time spot perhaps the films will also be available online?
