Contrary to the review above titled "rubbish," there is zero documentary evidence, not one word, rumor, or whisper that William Shakespeare did not write the plays and poems. Alternately, there is an abundance of documentation showing that not only was Will Shakespeare of Stratford the author but that it should never at any time have been in doubt.

Anyway, on to the short documentary. It is very well done, superficial but nothing much in it to quibble about except what had to be left out due to the 42-minute run time. The commentators from the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust add authority to the presentation but some speculations that may be good guesses are stated as a fact. Nettles was a good choice and has the right voice as narrator.

A really fun episode and one of the most remembered to this day. It seems impossible that a cat, however well trained, was used but then, "impossible" is in the show's name. Besides, was Rusty on a catwalk? I have always contended M:I was a straight faced comedy and all the improbable gadgets and disguises were meant to smiled at and enjoyed on the level of pure fantasy. One of my all-time favorite series.

I was thinking as Season 2 went into Season 3 that although the show was as compulsively watchable as before, the instances of outright laughter became fewer as the story darkened. "Jeremy Bearimy" is a throw-back to 1st Season fall over laughing. Chidi's meltdown is maybe the funniest thing I have ever seen in any television series. A really remarkable episode.
