In Search of Shakespeare - 4. For All Time (BBC)

BBC documentary series. Michael Wood focuses on the Bard's life during the reign of King James I. As well as a visit to the present Queen's royal robe-makers that provides evidence of Shakespeare's role in the coronation, Wood examines the popular effect of the Gunpowder Plot, to which the playwright responded with a tale of regicide, and also sheds new light on Shakespeare's strange bequest to his wife Anne in his will.
