Bill

From the original stars of the BBC's Horrible Histories comes Bill, a fresh interpretation of Shakespeare's 'lost years'.

When terrible lute player and general layabout 'Bill' Shakespeare leaves his hometown to pursue his fortunes in London, he finds himself caught in a conspiracy to assassinate the Queen.

With the Spanish delegates at court plotting to kill her, Queen Elizabeth demands that a play be performed for her. Bill sees his chance to shine, and he'd better - because if the play isn't good, she'll have his head chopped off.

First released: Monday 15th February 2016
