British History: Royals, Rebels, and Romantics

Maggie O'Farrell's Hamnet has captured the attention of the world, focusing on Shakespeare's family. The importance of Agnes (Anne) Hathaway Shakespeare and the death of son Hamnet changed the family. Carol Ann looks at how four adaptations give us new understanding of the family and the works of Shakespeare.
