I think Don refers to the BBC production of all the plays which appeared on PBS here in the states in the 70's and 80's and featured such fine actors as Derek Jacoby (my favorite Hamlet), Claire Bloom, Robert Hardy, Helen Mirren, Anthony Hopkins and a bunch more. Seeing the plays on TV put them in a whole different light, as Garg points out and inspired me to attend live productions. The DVD's are available at my local library and can probably be found all over the net.
