7/10
Follow the superstitions!
18 January 2021
It's all about The Bubonidiots, it's lockdown in 1603, William and Kate are locked down, but well stocked, and raging about the behaviour of the general public, who even back then, broke the rules.

As always, it looks great, it's very witty, the performances as always are immaculate. I love the dry humour.

I love the references to Shakespeare's work, very nicely put together. Jokes about works past and future.

Jokes about cultural appropriation, Kate questions whether an Englishman is fit to pen a play about Scotsmen, 2020, the year where people rant about straight men playing gay characters.....

It fits in very nicely for 2020, if I'm being honest, it did feel a bit BBC soapbox at times, but that's me nitpicking, it was very nice, seasonal fun. 7/10.
