The BBC Television Shakespeare (1978)
03/12/1978 (GB)La BBC Television Shakespeare est une série d'adaptations télévisées britanniques des pièces de théâtre de William Shakespeare. Elle a été créée par Cedric Messina et produite par la BBC Television. Elle a été diffusée au Royaume-Uni du 3 décembre 1978 au 27 avril 1985 et s'est étendue sur sept saisons. Le développement de la série a commencé en 1975 lorsque Messina a remarqué que le château de Glamis serait un lieu parfait pour une adaptation de la pièce de Shakespeare "Comme il vous plaira". De retour à Londres, il a imaginé une série entière consacrée exclusivement aux œuvres dramatiques de Shakespeare. Après avoir rencontré de nombreux problèmes pour produire la série, Messina a finalement présenté l'idée aux responsables de la BBC et la série a été approuvée. Dans l'ensemble, la série a reçu des critiques généralement négatives de la part des critiques.
