00:00Rob and I are back.
00:06It looks a bit like you're my guide.
00:09Throwing ourselves into the biggest challenges.
00:12Check! Check! Check!
00:14With the help of the world's best.
00:17It's Louie in the office.
00:20Together we're going on a journey of discovery.
00:23No! No! No!
00:25To find out what we like.
00:27Oh, wow, Rob, that's amazing.
00:29And what we don't.
00:31It just feels like it's all gonna come out.
00:33This week, we're going Elizabethan and taking on Shakespeare.
00:37There's a lot to take in.
00:38As we prepare to perform Romeo and Juliet.
00:41A plague of both your houses.
00:43With the help of some of our finest actors.
00:45Before putting it all on the line
00:47at the world-famous Globe Theatre in London.
00:50Come, sir. Your passado.
00:59So, Rob.
01:00Yes.
01:01We have been invited to perform Shakespeare at the Globe Theatre.
01:10It's highly prestigious, according to my wife, the drama teacher.
01:13About time and all, that's what I said.
01:15Yeah.
01:16Does the telegram man be running late, one thinks?
01:21For I have been waiting for this moment upon a time.
01:25It's the kind of thing, isn't it?
01:27The irony of two jesters driving through South London
01:31setting up an episode of a Sky presentation.
01:34And the question the public asks themselves,
01:37are the two jesters possible to once again scratch the gooch of mirth
01:42as they descend into one other episode
01:45of the famous Robin Romesh versus Shakespeare?
01:49Piece of piss, Shakespeare, isn't it?
01:51Oh, my God.
01:52I've just done about 12 sonnets, eh?
01:54I don't know any Shakespeare.
01:58I've heard of Macbeth, Hamlet, Midsummer's Night's Dream.
02:02Yeah.
02:03Othello.
02:04Let's see Hamlet.
02:05I'm going to read out some.
02:07You tell me if you've heard of them, OK?
02:08Romeo and Juliet.
02:09Yeah.
02:10King Lear.
02:11No.
02:12The Tempest.
02:13No.
02:14Julius Caesar.
02:15That's a bloke, isn't it?
02:16Yeah, but it's based on his life.
02:18No, I've seen Gladiator, but that's separate.
02:20That is a different story, yeah.
02:22Taming of the Shrew.
02:23No, what's that?
02:24What's a shrew?
02:25A little mouse thing, isn't it?
02:26Yeah.
02:27As you like it.
02:28What the fuck's that about?
02:29It's sort of like the original...
02:30Springwatch special.
02:31It's the original version of Ratatouille.
02:33Right.
02:37Are you a fan of Shakespeare?
02:38No.
02:39OK.
02:40OK, this is what I think of Shakespeare,
02:42and I'm going to get a little bit annihilated for this.
02:44Go on.
02:45I think it's overrated.
02:46Yep.
02:47And we're constantly being told it's brilliant,
02:49without any real evidence of that.
02:51What is brilliant about it?
02:52Nobody can answer that question.
02:53Yeah, but...
02:54Why do we all have to study Shakespeare?
02:56Like, what is this?
02:58Are you all right?
02:59No, I just think it's a bit...
03:00It's just a bit annoying.
03:01Really?
03:02I've never known you to be so passionate about something.
03:04I just think...
03:05It just is too much.
03:07My problem with it is,
03:08I struggled to learn to read at school,
03:10and then once I got an handle on it,
03:11they gave me Shakespeare was all written wrong.
03:14Right.
03:15I just think we need someone
03:16that knows what's going on
03:18and can explain why it's good.
03:19Yeah.
03:20Because you get good actors that do it,
03:21and they're normal people,
03:22and they must like it.
03:23Yeah.
03:24OK.
03:25Deal?
03:26Deal.
03:27So, to start our Shakespearean journey,
03:32we were heading to the Globe,
03:34the legendary open-air theatre
03:35in the heart of London,
03:36dedicated to the works of William Shakespeare.
03:39It's a modern-day recreation of the very place
03:41where Shakespeare staged his plays,
03:43and offers a proper old-school Elizabethan experience.
03:48There you go.
03:49Oh, wow.
03:52Nice, isn't it?
03:53Amazing, isn't it?
03:54Treading the boards.
03:55Yeah, very good.
03:57The theatre's first artistic director
03:59was the Oscar-winning actor,
04:01Sir Mark Rylance,
04:02and now it's in the hands
04:03of Olivier Award-winning Michelle Terry,
04:05who today would be deciding
04:07which scene Rom and I would be performing.
04:09How much is it delivered out here?
04:11Oh, give it some on the edge.
04:13He loves it, God.
04:15How dare you!
04:18What do you think?
04:19That was excellent.
04:20Oh, hello!
04:21It's really good.
04:22You're basically ready.
04:23Michelle, Rob, lovely to meet you.
04:24Nice to meet you.
04:25Hello, Rob, how's it going?
04:26You all right?
04:27Very good, how are you?
04:28It's amazing, I've never been here before.
04:29Welcome.
04:30So, you're going to perform here,
04:32you're going to do a scene from one of the plays.
04:35Yeah.
04:36You're going to be coming on after a full house performance,
04:39so 1,600 people will have just watched a play,
04:41and then you're the encore.
04:44But normally the encore is they cheer for the people
04:46they've just seen to see more of it.
04:48Oh, they'll do that.
04:49Yeah.
04:50Oh, they'll do that, and then there'll be an extra.
04:51Yeah.
04:52A bonus.
04:53But what you don't do is reward that enthusiasm
04:55by bringing on something shit.
04:57So you're going to go and do some workshops on Shakespeare.
05:00Okay.
05:01One on using your voice in this space,
05:03without amplification,
05:04and one on combat, stage combat, a bit of fighting.
05:07And you're also going to go get into a bit of costume,
05:10Elizabethan costume,
05:11because on the night that's what you'll be wearing,
05:13so you need to get used to it.
05:14Okay.
05:15Okay.
05:16Brilliant, thanks Michelle.
05:17Have fun.
05:18See you later.
05:20Today's workshops are all about helping Michelle decide
05:23which scene would be right for us.
05:25They were taking place on the Globe's sister stage,
05:27the candle-lit Sam Wanamaker Playhouse,
05:30modelled on the intimate indoor theatres
05:32of Elizabethan London.
05:35And Rom and I were already looking right at home.
05:43What do you think?
05:44It's a lot to take in.
05:46Um, I feel like I'm in like a Shakespearean basic instinct.
05:50You know, things are riding up so high.
05:52Sorry.
05:53Why?
05:54Sorry.
05:55It's like...
05:56You don't, you forget how stuff fit, right?
05:57At least you can see through them.
05:58Yeah, that's like a lexicon mode.
06:00Sorry.
06:01Dost wanna give me one.
06:03I don't know how to sit.
06:04Yeah.
06:05Look, if you don't mind me saying,
06:06you are now at the most attractive I've ever known you,
06:09right?
06:10Because I walked up here expecting to find it funny,
06:13and I did find it funny because you were like Shakespeare
06:15and Sharon Stone.
06:16Yeah.
06:17But apart from that, you actually look, you suit it.
06:20Well, the thing is to me, Rob,
06:21even if I do look more attractive,
06:23I'll always sit like a bit of a slag.
06:25Mmm.
06:26And that's me.
06:27You're your mother's son.
06:28You're...
06:29You're...
06:30Hi, guys.
06:35Oh, hello.
06:36Hiya.
06:37Hello.
06:38Nice to meet you.
06:39I'm Liz.
06:40I'm a Globe voice coach.
06:41Nice to meet you too.
06:42So, we're gonna be starting with a vocal workshop.
06:45Oh, brilliant.
06:46To get you on voice for the big Globe stage.
06:47Okay.
06:48Would you like to make your way?
06:49Yes, certainly.
06:50Yeah.
06:51Just like in Shakespeare's time,
06:54any actor performing at the Globe
06:56has to rely solely on the power of their voice
06:58to reach the audience.
07:00If you take a big breath into these ribs,
07:02and then rise up towards the ceiling,
07:04and breathe out on a...
07:07Oh, fucking hell.
07:09So, Liz was putting us through a series of vocal exercises
07:13designed to help us project properly
07:15across the vast theatre space.
07:17Mmm.
07:18So, we're powering from your belly.
07:20If you power from your belly,
07:21you can do eight shows a week,
07:22which equates to about 24 hours in a week.
07:25Okay.
07:26Give me a more.
07:29Nice one.
07:30More.
07:32Okay.
07:33Give me a ha.
07:34Hu.
07:35Open up your mouth a little bit more for that one.
07:37Hu.
07:38How about a hu.
07:39Hu.
07:40Hu.
07:41Okay.
07:42James Brown will be turning in his grave.
07:43Hu.
07:44Gatta, gatta, gatta, hu.
07:45Gorgeous.
07:47Fabulous.
07:48Ramos, do you want to give it a go?
07:49What am I doing?
07:50Ha.
07:51Ha.
07:52And a hu.
07:53Hu.
07:54Ha.
07:55Ha.
07:56Ha.
07:57Goddamn.
07:58Straight back.
07:59Well done.
08:00Good stuff.
08:01Do you know what, I'm not just saying this,
08:02I feel like I can speak better than I ever have been able to in my entire life.
08:05So we're gonna say the words,
08:06No, no, no.
08:08No.
08:09No.
08:10No.
08:11Beautiful support.
08:12Just doing an impression of Lou.
08:13Excellent.
08:14I feel so verbally dextrous.
08:17Honestly, I feel like I can say anything.
08:20No.
08:21No.
08:22No.
08:23Vocal production. Lovely. Nice long neck.
08:25No.
08:25Very good.
08:26No.
08:26I want a day off. No.
08:28No.
08:29No to another series.
08:31No.
08:32He doesn't need to learn that word.
08:34No more Judge Romesh.
08:36Get the gout out.
08:38No. It felt empowering.
08:40No.
08:42I feel like it's something I should say more in everyday life.
08:45Like, Romesh, do you think for the rehearsals and the vocal warm-ups you should be in costume?
08:49No. No. No.
08:50We were now loose-lipped and warmed up, and ready to get to grips with the language.
08:57Yea, all which it inherits shall dissolve.
09:00And I was starting to get into it.
09:02Where all spirits and are melted into air, into thin air.
09:08It's quite yappy there, isn't it? It's quite shouty.
09:10Yeah. But it's a nice volume. I enjoyed the volume.
09:13I thought, personally, I thought I nailed it.
09:14Yeah. We always do.
09:15But then, Michelle had arranged for us to crank things up a gear with some Elizabethan action.
09:29Oh, I don't like it. I don't like it. Oh, my God.
09:33Really don't want to do that sword fighting.
09:35Do you know what I mean? We could take an eye out, and we ain't got a lot to play with.
09:37There's three between us.
09:39Hello, both. Amazing. This is Sam.
09:42We're going to do some combat stuff today.
09:44Mainly, we're going to be focusing on rapier,
09:47because as you are beautifully dressed, it was the main weapon in Shakespearean times.
09:52So this was actually happening when Shakespeare was alive?
09:54Yeah.
09:55He's fucking well-old.
09:56When was this? This is mental.
09:591600s.
09:591600s? When was that?
10:01Long time ago.
10:02When was that? You're asking when a time period was?
10:04I get it. I can't get me edge.
10:07Should we let you two fight each other?
10:08Was there trains?
10:10Was there trains?
10:11Trains?
10:11Yeah.
10:12How old are they?
10:12I've just got to book a train to my rapier fight.
10:18Bendy the legs. Front foot first.
10:20Before we were allowed to duel it out,
10:22Rom and I had to master the footwork.
10:25De-dum, de-dum, de-dum.
10:27Beautiful.
10:27Yeah.
10:28And it didn't take long to see which one of us had the killer instinct.
10:31I'm back.
10:32Why are you going so quickly and far?
10:35Oh, do we have to fight slowly?
10:37De-dum, de-dum, de-dum.
10:39Oh, I'd kill him immediately.
10:40Beautiful.
10:41And then backwards.
10:42De-dum, de-dum, de-dum.
10:44Yeah, lovely.
10:44It's like a ferry, that.
10:46What do you mean?
10:47Beautiful and light.
10:47Slow.
10:48Rom is just quite a slow mover with the sword work.
10:51I think if it was a vehicle, there'd be a beep
10:52as he returns from the duel.
10:55Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep.
10:59And not being fast on my feet
11:01was going to be a problem with my sparring partner.
11:03And, Rob, you go for the chest first.
11:06Oh, Jesus.
11:07And we're going to block.
11:08That's it.
11:08And then go down for the hips.
11:10And then...
11:10Okay, whoa.
11:11Wait for the fucking cue.
11:13Yeah, thanks.
11:14Why are you further on the thermos?
11:17Jesus.
11:18I thought I was actually in a row then.
11:21Maisie was saying,
11:22can you follow me step by step?
11:24We'd finish the fight before she got into the second step
11:26because Rob just decided it's go time.
11:29Going backwards.
11:30Literally the same thing.
11:30I don't retreat, mate.
11:32I'm a forward fighter.
11:33You're going to retreat.
11:34I'll cut the ring off, get him in the cold.
11:35I'll fucking...
11:35Luckily, I had the wherewithal
11:38to actually properly defend myself.
11:40Otherwise, you'd be fucking...
11:41I'd be talking to you with a rapier out my chest.
11:45By some miracle,
11:47I'd made it through training without a scratch.
11:49And now it was finally time
11:50to find out what we'd be performing.
11:52Michelle had spoken to our coaches
11:53and together, they've picked a scene for us.
11:57We had a really good chat
11:58about the scene that you're going to do.
11:59OK.
12:00What we've got is a scene
12:01from the most famous play in the canon,
12:04Romeo and Juliet.
12:04Mm.
12:05So you're going to do a friendship scene.
12:07Oh.
12:09Not the one at the end
12:10where I kiss him when he's dead.
12:12No, not that one.
12:13Well, you could if you wanted to put it in.
12:15But...
12:15Don't he kiss...
12:16He kisses her when she's dead.
12:17Yeah, but who describes that as a friendship scene?
12:21Why would that be called a friendship scene?
12:23Well, I don't know.
12:25I'll give you a little kiss.
12:26If you were dead, I'd give you a little kiss.
12:27Fine, but you wouldn't describe it as a friendship scene.
12:28If you were dead now,
12:29I'd give you a little kiss in your forehead
12:30and then ring my agent
12:32and then the ambulance.
12:38Anyway...
12:38You're going to do the other friendship scene
12:40without the kissing.
12:41Right.
12:42There's quite a lot of fights in it.
12:43Oh, OK. We're fighting in it.
12:44Yeah.
12:46The scene Michelle had chosen
12:48was a pivotal fight of the play,
12:50which Romeo's best friend, Mercutio,
12:52was killed.
12:53It was classic Shakespearean tragedy
12:55and somehow Michelle expected us
12:58to pull off one of the most dramatic scenes in history
13:00with me playing Mercutio
13:02and Rob as Romeo.
13:04I was hurt under your arm.
13:06I thought all for the best.
13:07And the toughest part was
13:08we only had a week before we had to perform it.
13:11So basically, I think,
13:13between now and when you do it,
13:15like, if you can just learn the lines
13:16and say the lines in the right order,
13:18that's successful.
13:19OK, great.
13:20Thanks so much.
13:20Try our best.
13:21Yeah, thank you.
13:22We'll see you.
13:22We might come back and do it.
13:24Bye-bye!
13:25Bye-bye.
13:25All the best.
13:26They made worms meet of me.
13:29We're fucked.
13:30Yeah.
13:36In just a week's time,
13:38Rob and I will be taking on
13:39one of the most dramatic scenes
13:40in all of history,
13:41when we perform Shakespeare
13:43in the iconic Globe Theatre.
13:45Help me in some house, Benvolio.
13:47I shall faint.
13:48I'll play with both your houses.
13:49They've made worms meet of me.
13:50And we were completely out of our depth.
13:53And then go down for the hips.
13:55And then...
13:55OK, whoa!
13:56Wait for the fucking cue!
13:59So to help us get ready,
14:01our mentor, Michelle Terry,
14:02had invited us back
14:03to watch Romeo and Juliet
14:04performed by the pros.
14:07But first,
14:08I wanted to see if Rob
14:09had any experience
14:10treading the boards.
14:12I dressed up as Emma Bunton once
14:14for a school play
14:14when we were doing the Spice Girls.
14:17Well, that was a play?
14:18I don't know.
14:19It was like an assembly.
14:19Not really a play.
14:20We were on stage, weren't you?
14:21Yeah, but it was more like,
14:22oh, now we've got
14:23the Spice Girls performing.
14:24We just dumped her as well.
14:24OK, well, now we get into
14:26the nub of the fact that
14:27I don't think you know
14:28what a play is.
14:29I've not been in a play.
14:30Right.
14:32That's the correct answer
14:34to that question.
14:35I don't think I've even seen one.
14:36No, I don't think you have either.
14:38Romeo and Juliet,
14:39Leonardo DiCaprio.
14:40That's a film.
14:41Right, but it's Shakespeare.
14:43Yeah.
14:44Pantomime?
14:45That's a play?
14:46I've seen the play.
14:47That's a play.
14:47OK.
14:47I mean, it is the, you know,
14:51what I would say is
14:51if you didn't know the person,
14:53they said, have you been
14:53to see any plays?
14:54Yeah.
14:54And you go, oh, you know,
14:56I went to see Dick Whittington
14:58at the hall.
14:59I would say keep that to yourself.
15:05Each year, the Globe puts on
15:06hundreds of performances
15:07of Shakespeare's plays
15:08and none are more famous
15:10than Romeo and Juliet.
15:12Tonight's performance was our chance
15:13to get a handle on the play
15:15and see the scene we'd be performing
15:16in this unique venue.
15:18I've geeked in theatres all over the world
15:20as you have.
15:21I've never seen one like this.
15:22No.
15:23It feels like you're,
15:24it feels like you've been transported
15:25back in time.
15:26But what Michelle had failed to mention
15:28was exactly what time period
15:30we'd be transported back to.
15:35Bang!
15:37I kind of feel a little bit ignorant
15:39because I didn't realise
15:39that Romeo and Juliet was a Western.
15:41It turned out the Globe
15:45was putting on a Wild West
15:46themed interpretation
15:47of Shakespeare's classic.
15:49They're all coming in
15:50through saloon doors
15:51and then they're talking
15:52like a Shakespeare play
15:53but it's a Western.
15:55It's about seven different time periods
15:57you're experiencing
15:58in one performance.
16:01I'm half expecting a DeLorean
16:02to come out.
16:04Emmett Brown gets out.
16:05Marty!
16:07And just as we got used
16:09to the setting,
16:10next,
16:11we were hit with the language.
16:13With purple fountains
16:14issuing from your veins.
16:16What's the purple fountain?
16:18By the fountains.
16:20I don't know what's going on in there.
16:23It's like having fondue.
16:24You ever had fondue?
16:25I don't know what's going on with that
16:26but it's fun.
16:28But the fun stopped
16:29the moment our scene started.
16:32And for the very first time,
16:34Rom and I could see
16:35just how much trouble
16:36we were really in.
16:37The more I'm exposed to what we're doing,
16:47the less I think it's a good idea.
16:50What the devil
16:51came in between us?
16:52I think people are going to throw
16:54their shit at us.
16:57Thankfully,
16:57we wouldn't be dressing up as cowboys
16:59when we performed.
17:01And although it had been useful
17:02watching the pros in action,
17:04there was still a personal hurdle
17:05we needed to get past.
17:07Are you a fan of Shakespeare?
17:09Um, no.
17:10Okay.
17:11We're constantly being told
17:11it's brilliant.
17:12What is brilliant about it?
17:13Nobody can answer that question.
17:16We needed someone to explain to us
17:18why it was so good.
17:20So the next day,
17:20we were off to meet
17:21a Shakespeare expert.
17:23Oscar-nominated film star
17:24Jessie Buckley.
17:27Jessie's acting career
17:28kicked off by studying the Bard.
17:30And with multiple adaptations
17:31of his work under her belt,
17:33including appearances at the Globe,
17:34she was the perfect person
17:37to help us get our heads
17:38around Shakespeare.
17:40We need your help, Jessie.
17:41We're struggling.
17:42How come?
17:43It's just that whole thing
17:44of being forced to learn it at school.
17:46And then it's lots of people
17:48telling you it's really good
17:50without, for me,
17:51feeling like there's
17:52any concrete evidence.
17:53What the hell's going on?
17:53Yeah, yeah, yeah.
17:54I was like,
17:54I felt like that in school too.
17:56It was kind of just words
17:57that went way past me.
18:00And then when I moved over to London,
18:02I did a three-week Shakespeare course
18:04and I fell in love with it.
18:08I mean,
18:08I still don't fully understand it.
18:11That's good.
18:13I'm being completely honest.
18:15But as you work on it,
18:16you get to know it.
18:17It's like he's condensed
18:19the most epic feelings
18:20of being a human
18:22into, like, his text.
18:25All the lines in it, right,
18:27obviously it's old English,
18:29but even for that time
18:30was Shakespeare a little bit
18:32flamboyant with it.
18:33But even back then,
18:34they'd go,
18:35calm down, mate.
18:36Yeah.
18:36He invented so many words.
18:38At the time,
18:39I'm asking...
18:40I bet they didn't know
18:40what was going on either.
18:41That's what I'm asking, yeah.
18:42Definitely.
18:42It's a bit like listening
18:43to an E-40 record, you know?
18:44He just makes up, you know...
18:45Who's E-40?
18:47The rapper.
18:47Because you know about E-45.
18:49Most of his stuff,
18:50you can't understand
18:50what you're saying.
18:51Right.
18:51Because he makes up slang,
18:52so I think...
18:52But what does it make you...
18:53Do you feel like something from it?
18:55Well, you feel like
18:56you need to try and find out
18:57what it means.
19:00There you go.
19:01Oh, wow.
19:02He's cracked the code.
19:03He cracked it.
19:04I hope that's in light.
19:05That's the widest
19:06that way it's been open for a while.
19:09Keep it going.
19:10It might stay that way.
19:12Keep it going.
19:12Give me some other stuff.
19:13Give me some more epiphanies.
19:14Things seem like
19:17they were starting
19:18to click for Rom,
19:19but I had my own problem
19:20I needed Jesse's help with.
19:22Well, we've got to do
19:23a performance at the Globe.
19:25Are you?
19:25And I've got to be really sad.
19:27What are you doing
19:27in our show play?
19:28Yes.
19:29Okay.
19:29I'll be honest with you,
19:30the tone's not that encouraging.
19:33We do the scene
19:34where I am sad
19:36because Mercutio...
19:37I'm playing Romeo,
19:38Mercutio dies, right?
19:39Yeah.
19:39I'm sad.
19:40Yes.
19:40The problem is,
19:41Rob has to deliver
19:42a line with emotion
19:43that he doesn't fully
19:44understand.
19:44understand what the line means.
19:45What is the line?
19:46So basically,
19:47I say...
19:49Look him in the eyes
19:50and imagine
19:50your best friend
19:52has died.
19:58I thought I'm at
19:59Madame Tussauds.
20:01I wish they'd put me
20:02at Madame Tussauds.
20:04Anyway, go on.
20:06Okay.
20:08This day's black fate
20:09on more days
20:10doth depend
20:11but this begins
20:13the woes
20:14others must end.
20:16Okay, so...
20:16And what do you think
20:17that means?
20:18It's a bad day.
20:21Very bad.
20:22Yeah.
20:23It's gonna get worse.
20:24Yeah, that's basically it.
20:25Yeah.
20:25You have to work
20:26at figuring out
20:27what it means to you.
20:28Yeah.
20:29What you're saying is,
20:30you don't have to know
20:30exactly what is meant
20:32by every one of those words
20:33but you know
20:34what the sentiment
20:35of that line is
20:36so you can deliver it
20:37with that intent, right?
20:38That's exactly what it is.
20:41Yeah.
20:41If we feel like
20:42it's all going wrong
20:43on the night,
20:43what would your advice be
20:44if your head starts
20:45to go in that negative way?
20:47What I would probably
20:48think of doing
20:48is just like
20:49show people, you know,
20:51flash or something
20:52but that's not
20:53what you should do.
20:54Sorry, your tip,
20:56if it's going badly
20:57and we get a negative
20:58in the voice
20:58is to get our dicks out.
21:00That's what my
21:01bad part of my brain
21:02wants to do.
21:03Right, right, right.
21:04But don't say,
21:04you're saying don't do that.
21:05Don't do that.
21:05I'm sorry, right, I got this.
21:06They're like,
21:06there's no right or wrong.
21:08Just like,
21:09go and do it
21:10and I bet you'll be brilliant.
21:12Thank you till you make it.
21:13Exactly.
21:13I think you're going to be great.
21:15You're going to take
21:15the globe by storm.
21:22Rob and I
21:23are only days away
21:24from performing
21:24Romeo and Juliet
21:25at the Globe.
21:27And whilst I was starting
21:28to understand
21:29what made Shakespeare great.
21:31Do you feel like
21:31something from it?
21:32Well, you feel like
21:33you need to try
21:34and find out what it means.
21:35There you go.
21:37Rob was still having
21:37trouble accessing
21:38his emotions.
21:40What do you think
21:40that means?
21:41It's a bad day.
21:44Very bad.
21:46Rob and I
21:47have separate challenges
21:49that we have to master
21:49for our performance.
21:51Mine is
21:52to die convincingly.
21:55But I'm not as worried
21:57about myself
21:57as I am worried
21:58about Rob.
21:59The problem
21:59that Rob has got
22:00is Rob
22:00has to connect
22:01to his feelings.
22:02Rob has not done
22:03that for a long time.
22:05So the fear
22:06is that he might
22:07have a breakdown
22:08when he sort of
22:08finally reconnects.
22:09It's like,
22:10you know,
22:11when they plug the thing
22:11in the back of Neo's
22:12head in the Matrix
22:13and then upload
22:14emotion and empathy.
22:16He might just
22:16shit himself
22:17and start crying.
22:19Which is bad
22:20for him
22:20and Lou
22:21and his children
22:21but great for the show.
22:22So today
22:25we're at the
22:26Regent's Park
22:27Open Air Theatre
22:27in London
22:28to hopefully
22:29turn us two clowns
22:31into serious actors
22:32with a masterclass
22:33from one of our
22:34country's finest.
22:36Martin Freeman
22:37is a national treasure.
22:39He first shot to fame
22:40as the beloved Tim
22:41in the smash hit series
22:42The Office
22:42before taking the world
22:44by storm
22:44is billed by Baggins
22:46in the blockbuster
22:47Hobbit trilogy.
22:47But most importantly
22:55for us
22:55he's no stranger
22:56to Shakespeare
22:57having played
22:59the title role
22:59in his critically acclaimed
23:01sellout run
23:01of Richard III.
23:03So
23:03if anyone can bring
23:04out our interactors
23:05it's Martin.
23:07We need help.
23:07How can I help you?
23:08Yeah, we need help.
23:08Basically
23:09we are doing a performance
23:10at the Globe
23:10Shakespeare
23:11Romeo and Juliet
23:12I'm playing Romeo
23:13you're Mercutio
23:14I've got to be sad.
23:17Jesus
23:17I mean that's
23:18that's quite a task.
23:19And as well as me
23:20being sad
23:20Rom's got to die
23:21which is obviously
23:22difficult to do
23:22without looking too eggy.
23:24Yeah and it's difficult
23:24to sort of draw on
23:25memories of dying previously.
23:27It is.
23:27Well you're a comic.
23:28Okay nice.
23:29Alright come on.
23:30Yeah.
23:30Alright I'm glad you two
23:32are getting on.
23:34So
23:34you
23:35how comfortable
23:37are you at the moment
23:38with saying these words?
23:39I feel a bit like
23:41a football manager
23:42that's gone to Holland
23:43to manage
23:44and then he starts
23:44to impress conferences
23:45and because he's
23:47been so used to
23:47talking slowly
23:48to the Dutch players
23:49he has a sort of
23:50foreign lilt.
23:51Like who had that?
23:52Steve McClellan.
23:53Yes.
23:54You know that
23:54you know
23:55thou shalt pick
23:56best eleven
23:57at two wing game
23:58and then the other
24:00challenge is
24:01having to look at that
24:02in a rough
24:04dying
24:05and be like
24:05how am I
24:07going to not laugh?
24:08Is it okay to say that?
24:10No but I'd say
24:11like I will
24:12so the bit
24:13where I'm getting
24:14aggy I can do that
24:15villain am I
24:16and all that
24:16kind of stuff
24:17it's the sad bit
24:18I'm struggling with.
24:19And the truth is
24:20that different people
24:20have different ways
24:21of doing it.
24:22Some people will do
24:22sense memory.
24:23Your breath
24:24your breathing
24:25can get you there
24:26you know.
24:27Because I saw a thing
24:28where someone
24:28would cut a hole
24:29in their trousers
24:30and pull a pube
24:30with a tweezer.
24:31I've seen that.
24:32Have you?
24:32Yeah man.
24:33I have seen that.
24:34Yeah just to get tears.
24:35But the problem is
24:36you've only got
24:36so many pubes.
24:37I mean if you're
24:38performing every night
24:40and mine
24:41also mine have got
24:43a lot less resistance
24:44than they used to.
24:45Oh so they just fall off.
24:46You could blow on mine
24:47like a dandelion.
24:51Before Martin
24:52could start working
24:53on our performances
24:54first off
24:55we needed to warm up.
24:57I'm doing the play
24:58at the moment
24:58and still to this day
24:59I still do
25:00sort of articulation
25:01exercises
25:02to make sure
25:02that all your
25:03teeth, your lips
25:04everything
25:05is warmed up
25:05and as malleable
25:06as possible.
25:06So you just want to
25:08shake that out.
25:10Really?
25:14Wow.
25:14Why are you laughing?
25:15That was too loose.
25:17Your arms are too long
25:18for that.
25:18That was too loose.
25:20Okay so
25:20here's another little one.
25:22Oh my.
25:24Get your tongue
25:26all the way
25:27clockwise
25:27all the way
25:29around your lips
25:30and after a while
25:31you will feel
25:32it does actually
25:33got quite a tone
25:33because you don't give it.
25:34It's got a dust in it.
25:34Stretch it out.
25:35Yeah you do feel it.
25:36Do that on Lou's birthday.
25:40Wow.
25:41I used to do that
25:42in the office.
25:44It worked
25:45and it's still good.
25:4624 years later
25:47it still works.
25:51Clearly Martin
25:52had still got it
25:53and now it was our turn
25:54to show him
25:55exactly where we were at.
25:57Let's reply from there.
25:58Right?
25:59Courage man
26:00the hurt can't be much.
26:02A plague of both your houses
26:03why the devil
26:03came in between us?
26:05I was hurt under your arm.
26:07I thought for all the best.
26:08Help me
26:09to somehow spin volio.
26:11A plague of both your houses
26:12they've made worms
26:14meet of me.
26:15Hmm.
26:17So you're going to dust it up?
26:18No well I'm going to walk off.
26:20Oh right
26:20you're going to walk off.
26:21But I mean for this
26:21so I don't know
26:23what I'm going to do.
26:23Right okay.
26:25But then I've got to
26:25Okay but no carry on.
26:26Okay sorry yeah.
26:28My very friend
26:28hath got his mortal hurt
26:30in my behalf.
26:32Oh Romeo.
26:33Romeo brave Mercutio's dead.
26:35This day's black fate
26:36on more days
26:37doth depend
26:38this but begins
26:40the woe
26:40others must end.
26:42I think we got it.
26:43Yeah?
26:44Yeah.
26:44Are we ready?
26:45Yeah man.
26:46Yeah.
26:46Totally.
26:47And I think if you just
26:48stand there
26:48with your script in your hand
26:49laughing
26:50I think genuinely
26:52the audience
26:53will not have seen
26:54anything like it.
26:55Erm.
26:56Can I tell you something?
26:57You really had me.
26:58You bastard.
26:59You're so
27:00You really good
27:01acting bastard.
27:01That was such a roller coaster.
27:03Horrible.
27:03No I thought
27:04I assumed that would be obvious.
27:05No we're believers
27:06I just thought
27:07wow brilliant
27:07I'm going into this
27:08full of confidence
27:08now I'm in pieces.
27:10I feel absolutely
27:11rock bottom now.
27:11Sorry.
27:12I hope you've got
27:13time to reconstruct us.
27:14Yeah okay.
27:16First things first
27:17we needed to tackle
27:18how Ron was going to die.
27:19And after seeing
27:21what he was working with
27:22Martin had an idea.
27:24So how are you
27:25feeling about the death?
27:26Well I don't know
27:26what to do.
27:27To save you from
27:28the thing of
27:29dying.
27:30Yeah.
27:30I think when people
27:31die off stage
27:31and it's reported
27:32that can be
27:33just as effective.
27:35Yeah.
27:35Whoever Ben Volio
27:36is can take you off.
27:36Yeah.
27:37And the reporting
27:38comes back.
27:39Ah reporting
27:39are you acting
27:41or are you
27:41fucking a journalist?
27:42Why don't I go home
27:44in a cab
27:45and then someone
27:45tells him I'm sad
27:46about it.
27:47But the only issue
27:47with that is
27:48I sort of then
27:49have a sword fight
27:49and go off stage.
27:50Yes.
27:50He's left on his own
27:51no curtain.
27:53Now.
27:53No curtain.
27:55What then?
27:56Fine.
27:57What are you each
27:57going to have to lay
27:58there until they all
27:58leave?
27:59That's quite a long
27:59time.
28:00Come on are we
28:01acting or not?
28:02The only thing.
28:03Listen.
28:03What are we doing
28:04here?
28:04Let me just tell you
28:05something.
28:05The relish that
28:06you're putting into
28:07this.
28:07I will be putting
28:08into you crying.
28:09No.
28:10Can I do it?
28:11Yeah.
28:12So you want me
28:12to just lie
28:13on the stage?
28:14Until they all
28:15leave?
28:15I think that.
28:16What a commitment.
28:17There's some breath
28:18in it.
28:18Okay sorry.
28:20So you want me to
28:20just stay on the
28:21stage while they
28:21leave?
28:23No breath.
28:24No breath.
28:25Watch.
28:25Okay.
28:26Oh so you think
28:27I'll just stay on
28:27the stage no curtain
28:28while there's a
28:29ten minute pause?
28:32I think the mouth
28:32has to be.
28:33I think the mouth
28:34has to be.
28:34Oh that was
28:34so good.
28:35That was the best
28:36one I've ever seen.
28:36You are so good.
28:38Thanks.
28:39Rom definitely
28:39needed some
28:40convincing.
28:41So the only way
28:42to settle this
28:42was to give it
28:43a go.
28:44The plague of
28:45both your houses
28:46they've made
28:47worms meet
28:48of me.
28:50My very friend
28:51hath got his
28:52mortal heart
28:52in my behalf.
28:55Oh Romeo.
28:57Romeo brave
28:58Mercutio's dead.
29:02This day's
29:02black fate
29:03on more days
29:04doth depend
29:04this but begins
29:06the woe
29:06others must
29:07end.
29:11You're off as
29:12well Martin.
29:13Oh sorry.
29:14And we can
29:16I tell you what
29:16what yeah
29:16let's have a little
29:17look round.
29:18Yeah.
29:20Brilliant.
29:20As a mate
29:21I'll try and keep
29:21that down.
29:23You cannot
29:24cruise.
29:25Apart from that
29:25I'm sorry.
29:26I think that's good
29:26because that's like
29:27a rictus grin.
29:28Yeah.
29:29You can't tell
29:29whether he's laughing
29:30or dying.
29:30No.
29:31And then
29:31Christ.
29:38I mean it hurts
29:39quite a lot
29:40but it is very
29:41moving.
29:43Yeah.
29:43Because I've never
29:44been near a dead
29:44ball.
29:44You don't move it
29:45immediately do you?
29:46Just walk away
29:46go back.
29:47I'm all right.
29:48Yeah I'm fine.
29:49No I'm fine.
29:50I'm fine.
29:50Don't worry about it.
29:51You getting hurt
29:52on another series.
29:54I think that's a bad
29:54idea by the way
29:55the dragon.
29:56I think you might
29:57be right.
29:57Worth a try.
29:58It's worth a look
29:59what that did?
29:59No definitely
29:59worth a try
30:00now.
30:00Was it?
30:01Now there.
30:02So you go
30:02definitely worth
30:03a try.
30:04Oh yeah.
30:05Come on.
30:06You're the best
30:07in the business.
30:08Oh wow.
30:09Do you think
30:10you should leave?
30:10Do you want
30:10to just leave?
30:11Well I mean
30:12based on how that
30:13went I think
30:13leaving is probably
30:14better.
30:14Leaving is probably
30:14better.
30:14Okay fine.
30:17Now we decided
30:17once and for all
30:18I was going to
30:19die off stage
30:19it was Rob's
30:20turn in the
30:21spotlight.
30:22Don't preempt
30:23the sad.
30:24Okay.
30:24Just try and
30:25play the sentiment
30:26of it and the
30:26feeling of it.
30:27Right okay.
30:29And I for one
30:30couldn't wait to
30:31watch him bear his
30:32soul.
30:33From my very
30:33friend.
30:34You've just seen
30:35him go off.
30:36Yeah.
30:36And he's in a
30:36bad way.
30:38My very friend
30:39hath got his
30:40mortal hurt in
30:41my behalf.
30:42Oh Romeo.
30:44Romeo brave
30:45Mercutio's dead.
30:46This day's black
30:50fake.
30:51Whoa.
30:58Listen man it's hard.
31:00It's hard.
31:00It is hard.
31:01It's hard.
31:01That is.
31:02It's difficult.
31:03It's difficult.
31:03And I don't even
31:05I don't even
31:05I'm not even going to
31:06tell you how it's hard.
31:07This day.
31:08This day.
31:08No.
31:09Not that.
31:10When you hear the
31:11news this doesn't
31:13help.
31:14That.
31:15And that's a
31:16common mistake.
31:17Yeah yeah.
31:17I won't do that.
31:20Rob was having an
31:21absolute nightmare.
31:23My very friend.
31:26And he just
31:26couldn't get his
31:27head around it.
31:28Okay.
31:29I just keep
31:29smiling.
31:31It's difficult
31:31this.
31:33Because Rob
31:34can't do it.
31:35At all.
31:36And I think
31:37even if this
31:38show was like
31:38Rob got six
31:39months of
31:40intensive training
31:40he still couldn't
31:41do it.
31:41He cannot do it.
31:43And so
31:43desperate times
31:44called for
31:45desperate measures.
31:47Can I make a
31:48suggestion?
31:48Yes.
31:49Why don't we
31:50shortcut it and
31:51you just pull out
31:51some pubes?
31:52I can't believe
31:53that's the best
31:54option but yeah.
31:55Well what do you
31:55think?
31:55I think it is the
31:56best option.
31:57Well I don't
31:57know if it's the
31:58best option.
31:58It's an option.
31:59Yeah.
31:59It's an option.
32:00Just try it.
32:01Don't do something
32:02you think you might
32:02accidentally start
32:03enjoying.
32:03It's really into
32:06death.
32:07That's my kink.
32:08Okay.
32:09Oh Romeo.
32:11Oh yeah.
32:11Romeo.
32:12Look at that again.
32:13Yeah.
32:13Sorry.
32:14Brave Mercutio's
32:15dead.
32:17This day's black
32:18fate on more
32:20days doth depend
32:23but this begins
32:25a woe that
32:26others ascend.
32:28I actually
32:29I think that was
32:30your best performance.
32:31I don't do anything
32:31that one.
32:31I actually
32:32I do think that
32:33was your best
32:34performance.
32:34I definitely
32:35yeah I definitely
32:35won't think about
32:36the words anymore.
32:37No.
32:38Fuck it.
32:38I got about
32:39eight a go there.
32:40But did you notice
32:41what was happening
32:41when you were doing
32:42that your breath
32:42was changing.
32:43Yeah.
32:43Yeah your breath
32:44was changing.
32:44Yeah.
32:45Breath is a
32:46massive massive part
32:47of emotional
32:48connection.
32:48Right.
32:49So there's a
32:50thing that I can
32:51sometimes access
32:51where you just
32:52you don't allow
32:53yourself easy breath
32:54in and out.
32:54So it's a bit
32:55sounds a bit
32:55stuttered.
32:56Yeah don't worry
32:56about the sound.
32:57Yeah don't
32:58worry about your
32:58face.
32:59None of that.
33:00I can't believe
33:01we went for pubes
33:01before breath.
33:03Why did you not
33:04do the breath?
33:04Well the pubes
33:05through the pubes
33:06were the gateway
33:06to the breath.
33:07Come on.
33:09It had been a
33:10painful process
33:10to get there
33:11but it felt like
33:12we were onto
33:13something.
33:14My very friend
33:14hath got his
33:15mortal hurt
33:16in my behalf.
33:18Oh Romeo.
33:20Romeo.
33:21Brave Mercutio
33:22is dead.
33:24This day's
33:25black fate
33:25or more days
33:28doth depend.
33:28Doth.
33:29Doth.
33:31This but
33:32begins the woes
33:33that others
33:34must end.
33:36I think we
33:36got it.
33:37Yeah.
33:37Yeah?
33:38Yeah.
33:39I'd err on
33:39the side of
33:40finding it
33:42very hard
33:42to get this
33:43stuff out.
33:44Very hard
33:44yeah.
33:44Do you
33:44know what
33:45you mean?
33:45Yeah.
33:48Robert finally
33:49found a method
33:50that worked
33:50for him
33:50and thanks

34:44for our
34:45Shakespearean
34:46debut
34:46Courage man
34:47The hurt
34:48cannot be much
34:49To see if

34:50what it takes

35:05day we had
