Episode 204 - Shakespeare in Love

(Deep Dive begins at 47:45)

If music be the food of love, pod on. Join your favourite TransAtlantic podcasting crew: Ian, Liam, Megan and Georgia (Ethan's out touring with the Admiral's Men) as we're heading to the Rose theatre (but minding the plague) in the Elizabethan period romantic comedy, Shakespeare in Love. We're waiting on a mystery to solve itself in our 204th episode as we discuss: 

• Who was supposed to play the part of Viola - and who did she want for her Shakespeare?
• We have to discuss the impact that Harvey Weinstein had on the Oscar success of this film against some very heavy competition
• It's face blindness run amok for Georgia in this week's episode
• We welcome back a legit friend of the podcast in the cast for this film
• Ian leaves his film teacher persona in the drawer this week but talks English teacher persona
• Whether or not Shakespeare in Love is the Best Film Ever
