David Tennant and Patrick Stewart in Hamlet Hits PBS Tonight
If you missed seeing it on stage, now you can catch it on PBS in the US tonight. David Tennant and Patrick Stewart in the Shakespeare classic, Hamlet.
David Tennant plays Hamlet and Patrick Stewart is Claudius star in this production of Hamlet which is airing tonight (Wednesday, 28 April 2010) across PBS stations in the US on the Great Performances series at 8pm (check your local listing for dates and times). In the New York area, that means WNET, channel 13 tonight and on WLIW, channel 21 on Sunday, 2 May 2010.
This is Shakespeare, not Doctor Who, it may not be for everyone. For a taste of it, below is a video clip of Act III, Scene I with David Tennant, Patrick Stewart, Penny Downie, and Gregory Doran.

The Doctor, the Widow and the Wardrobe
