Twelfth Night is dross.
1. The plot is pathetic
2. The characters are shallow and shit
3. It's filled with gags which haven't been funny for hundreds of years: 'relevant today' my cock-end

Just shit.

They were essentially the Carry On films of their age
Quite funny the first time you read/see them, but can you see school kids in four hundred years trying to analyse 'Ooh Matron'?

I have had a half-baked idea for a thesis
on 'the Carry On films as a social barometer' in my head for a good 20 years now. How you can see the shift in values etc in the 60s into the 70s by those films, and how by the time they ended they'd become redundant.

I had a great idea for a thesis after I finished my degree
but it wasn't really feasible to research, and no-one except Endemol would fund it.

Did you see the BBC version with Felicity Kendall in it?

No, I saw it in Stratford, at the theatre.
