...I'm sure most of you have seen this, but I just wanted a moment to squee over the Hamlet bit. Amazing *g*

Excellent! Was out all yesterday but will watch whole event on iPlayer later. Hope it's all as good as this clip. :-)

I haven't any idea - this is literally the only bit I've seen. But it was well worth it *g*

OMG!!! OMG!!!! This is the best thing I've ever seen. Thank you so much for sharing! *squishes you*

[daasgrrl]

Yay, I'm glad! *hugs*

Ooh!!! Thank you thank you, I hadn't seen this!!! It just kept getting better. I laughed so hard at "Hi, Eddie." And wow, the resemblance between Ian McKellen and Benedict is so strong here!!

You know, I didn't even notice! I was still way too amused at Tim Minchin's antics (oh, dear at the Eddie thing) and the dizzying array of talent that just kept crowding the stage. But I suppose they've both been Holmeses for a reason *g*

Blocked for copyright :(( But I have seen it, thanks to a kind person on Twitter who shared, because I missed seeing this part of the show as I was hoovering.

I really wanted to go to Stratford on Saturday to see all of the festivities, unfortunately I was so shattered from having to be here there & everywhere during last week. Perhaps for the 500th birthday celebrations, I'll only be 91 by then :/

Wow, that was fast - but I guess you always had iplayer to fall back on?

It sounds like it didn't all go according to plan anyway (the festivities) but I guess it'd be fun. Idk, I hate crowds anyway *g*
