Sunny Afternoon
29 June 2022
Since "Shakespeare & Hathaway: Private Investigators" is a daytime TV-show, it's almost free from graphic violence. Instead, the quirky plot is interspersed with lots of humor and irony. Filming was done in Stratford-upon-Avon's picturesque city center, as well as in the town's scenic surroundings.

The main roles are played by Mark Benton and Jo Joyner. He's an untidy slob, while she (no surprise here) is his very opposite. It sounds clichéd, but still works fine as both actors have tons of charm to fill their characters. From the very first episode it's obvious that Benton and Joyner have great chemistry between them.

So, "Shakespeare & Hathaway " may not renew the TV medium, but as light entertainment on a sunny afternoon the show works just fine.
