Is this a Knife I see before me?

Yesterday we watched the next in the ShakespeaRe-told series: Macbeth. It was more of a transposition than a re-telling but still enjoyable. As far as I could tell all the classic aspects of Macbeth where kept in (Witches, Bloody Hands, Mad People). Yet again there where bits of the original language inserted in as well as some sly references to theatrical tradition for laughs. Obviously it was a lot darker than previous play but still entertaining. Well done BBC :-)
