Observations
-
I saw this as a schoolboy. I remember Badel being perfectly cast in a traditional Elizabethan style production in ecclesiastical setting of St George’s. I can still clearly hear him saying the line “Clarence be closely mewd up” with his tight lips closing together on the m as his hand gave a grasping gesture. Fascinating to think I must have seen Wolfit’s daughter.
