I remember David Warner as Henry VI with Peggy Ashcrof as Queen Margaret many years ago in the landmark BBC productions of the Henry VI, Richard III plays about the Wars of the Roses called "The Hollow Crown" He was tremendously sad and pathetic, while Ashcroft's stuttering Margaret went from shy young woman to terrifying force of nature by the end. Theatre of that calibre could almost make me want to emigrate.
