Cos you're an undercover swot! 
I got 9/10 - being forced to study Shakespeare did come in useful, after all!

Re: Alas poor Cordelia
I did Macbeth, Hamlet and Lear at school/college. Also read Richard III. Can't be doing with the soppy ones though, and the comedies don't appeal.

Re: Alas poor Cordelia
Incredibly I got 9/10, although a fair bit of that was lucky guesses!

Snap and for the same reason.
Never did Shakespear at school (not O'Level English Lit). Just what I have picked up over time I suppose.

They also didn't even get to Merchant of Venice
"If you pr*ck us, do we not bleed? If you tickle us, do we not laugh? If you poison us, do we not die? And if you wrong us, shall we not revenge? If we are like you in the rest, we will resemble you in that."
Or Twelfth Night
"If music be the food of love, play on;
Give me excess of it, that, surfeiting,
The appetite may sicken, and so die."
Oh Shakespeare was such a genius.

Same here, chance level. Not surprising as I never studied Shakespeare. Either that or, as per the BBC title, I am not very smart

Re: Alas poor Cordelia
6 / 10 - not bad bearing in mind I haven't read or seen any Shakespeare since I did my A-levels (and I failed them ).
