Shakespeare's Sonnet 116 from the BBC's modernised production of Much Ado About Nothing

A marvellous rendition and analysis from the Beeb's production of "Much Ado About Nothing". It was clever of them to insert it into Shakespeare's play, even if The Bard did not do so. Benedick and Beatrice are the estranged characters who were earlier tricked into falling in love - even though their love-hate relationship always indicated their love for one another. This scene is placed before Claudio and Hero's "wedding".
