With each episode built around the creation of a single play a skilful interweaving of known events and contemporary interpretation show how key experiences may have inspired some of Shakespeare's greatest works - the death of his young son and his love for the famous 'dark lady' of the sonnets for example.

Originally screened in 1978 Will Shakespeare is a brilliantly imagined and very human portrait in which the flaws and frailties as well as the immense strengths of one of the world's greatest dramatists are brought vividly to life.
