“Very well researched in terms of Shakespeare, but when it comes to general history, the hosts speak very authoritatively about things they are getting wrong. For example, Henry VIII only had one of his wives executed for not producing a son - the other was beheaded for suspicion of adultery. And none of his wives was ever accused of witchcraft in their lifetimes. That was made up later in the 19th century. So maybe just skip the intro episodes and dive right into the plays.”
