Julius Caesar

Synopsis
Second instalment of a five-part schools programme series that attempts to makes Shakespeare accessible to children by having well-known actors comment on and perform key scenes from Shakespeare’s plays which are placed in a twentieth-century setting. This episode focuses on Act III, Scene i from Julius Caesar. Felix Dexter as Caesar is assassinated in a TV chat show, and Patrick Robinson (Mark Antony) agonises over the consequences.
