One of the most famous and celebrated writers of all time, I personally prefer Sally Wainwright who wrote Happy Valley and Scott & Bailey but I guess Shakespeare has done some alright work as well. 
This episode is a good one, it's less talking about his work and more about how he left his family behind as he went to London to pursue his career. And we discuss some of his rumoured affairs.  
Also I have a quick chat with my friend and very funny comedian Lily Phillips to find out what she knows about Shakespeare. Also I ask the age old question, why does Alicia Keys have a piano in every music video?
