Yes and No: I'm doing the English Lanhguage and Literature A-Level (NTB6) on Friday, having exam experience in this subject I hate it already... (If Will Shakespeare wasn't already dead, I'd kill him!)

Not cos I have exams or anything, I just generally dislike him! (But that'll get me in trouble with Demona... )

Richard the Third?
Also, a quote I quite like (oh, the shame!) from The Winter's Tale (which is on my exam... *shudder*):

Mmm, melodramatic!
What studied torments, tyrant, hast for me?
What wheels? racks? fires? what flaying? boiling?
In leads or oils? what old or newer torture
Must I receive, whose every word deserves
To taste of thy most worst?

Richard the Third?
Nope, I'm afraid Dan beat you to the correct answer, it was from the classic 'The Black Adder' (Act 1 Scene 1), spoken by sir Peter of Cook. From whence came the equally immortal lines "Once more unto the breach dear friends, once more!" and "Now is the summer of our sweet content!". Ahhh, a classic play...

But I'm sure there was at least one S***speare play named after a dead English guy with a crown... can't remember which one though. *shrugs shoulders*
