Contrary to the review above titled "rubbish," there is zero documentary evidence, not one word, rumor, or whisper that William Shakespeare did not write the plays and poems. Alternately, there is an abundance of documentation showing that not only was Will Shakespeare of Stratford the author but that it should never at any time have been in doubt.
Anyway, on to the short documentary. It is very well done, superficial but nothing much in it to quibble about except what had to be left out due to the 42-minute run time. The commentators from the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust add authority to the presentation but some speculations that may be good guesses are stated as a fact. Nettles was a good choice and has the right voice as narrator.
