How to tell a theatre reviewer doesn't know as much about Shakespeare as they'd like you to think:-
- they say a production of "Richard III" is too funny
- they say a production of "Cymbeline" is too weird
- they say a production of "Coriolanus" is too gay
- they say anything bad ever about Jade Anouka's Shakespearean acting (NB if they do this it also means they are almost certainly a massive bigot)
- they criticise a production of "Macbeth" for being too straightforward and as-written
- they criticise a production of "A Midsummer Night's Dream" for not being straightforward and as-written "enough"
- they criticise any production of any play for having too much: politics, queerness, transness, singing, dancing, sexual innuendo, proto-feminism
- they criticise racially-diverse, disability -inclusive, and gender-flipped casting (this also usually means they're a terrible person)
- they think it's an actively good thing if Rosalind in "As You Like It" is still really feminine when dressed as Ganymede
- they think they're being really cool and subversive by not liking Shakespeare
- they think they're being really awesome and arty by not liking anything being written now

From this tweet, it seems like Jade Anouka talks about Tom having the Hamlet red book in a BBC Radio 4 podcast. twitter,com/allyngibson/status/1618701123522789376
She does say "rumoured", but we know from several sources it's true.
The full show can be heard here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m001h4c6

Hamlet is the Shakespearean character that many actors long to play. Jade Anouka is one of those actors. She talks to past Hamlets– Sir Derek Jacobi, Adrian Lester, Samuel West and Tessa Parr – about the challenges in approaching the part.
And she hears the fabled story of The Red Book, a red-bound copy of the play, begun by the actor Sir Johnston Forbes-Robinson, who passed the book on to a successive actor on the condition that in turn they passed it onto the finest Hamlet of the next generation. Derek Jacobi tells the story of receiving it from Peter O’Toole and passing it on to Kenneth Branagh, who in turn passed it on to Tom Hiddleston. Jade wonders where the book might go next.
Jade also explores why Hamlet as a part holds such fascination for actors. Here’s the rub - no one can tell you what Hamlet is about. A revenge tragedy, an Oedipal drama, a political betrayal, a study of insanity, the portrait of a fatally flawed genius. Each actor makes it his own but has to deal with the weight of its history.
Derek Jacobi tells the story of performing ‘To be or not to be’ only to hear the voice of Sir Winston Churchill joining in from the front row. Adrian Lester describes how he whispered each famous speech to himself in an attempt to get back to the essence of the language.
And each generation interprets Hamlet as an expression of their own time. Professor Michael Dobson from the Shakespeare Institute describes a production he saw in Ukraine in a cellar now used as a bomb shelter.
Readers: Sir Derek Jacobi, Adrian Lester, Samuel West, Tessa Parr
Producer: Sara Conkey

Leaving London today. I declare Cock season officially concluded (at least for me). It feels bittersweet. Sad that it's over, happy to move on to bigger and better things.
Since I've been updating you on how every day went, let me tell you about yesterday's events. I went to stage door to try and catch Jonny on the way in (nope), after the matinee (nope) and after the evening performance (nope). No luck, the man is elusive as fuck, but I did meet some amazing people there with whom I spent a fangirling-heavy afternoon. Highlight of this entire endeavour is that one of the girls (M, if you're reading this, hellooooo) bought Jonny some muesli and we somehow managed to get it delivered to him and make sure he got it. What's even funnier about this whole thing is that Hugh Skinner, Jonny's co-star and friend of many years, was spotted going through stage door holding a single bottle of almond milk and nothing else.

So grateful for him and the neverending positive energy he emanates. He really saved the day. And so did Jade, to be fair, whom I also saw stepping out of stage door after the matinee with her wife and BABY and they were all so gorgeous I almost cried. I told her how much I enjoyed the show and definitely wasn't as eloquent as I'd have liked, but oh well 😅
Grateful. Grateful for them, and grateful for you all, my friends old and new on this crazy platform and in real life. Thank you for sticking with me through the highs and the lows, for the chats and the yelling, for the laughs and the tears, you're all so wonderful and I'm the sappiest person in the world, I know, but this needed to be said.
THANK YOU
Here's to our Cock. They certainly made it hard (pun fully intended), but we did it. He might have pulled out, but we pulled through. Good job, everybody.

I've been late to watching this series of HDM, so I don't have any good idea how the rest of you have been reacting to it
but I sure hope I'm not the only one having a chuckle Serafina Pekkala's line: "I am not Ruta."
