Is In Search of Shakespeare coming back?

In Search of Shakespeare ended on December 5, 2005, on BBC Two. The series concluded after its four episodes aired from November 14 to December 5, 2005.

This documentary series explored the life of William Shakespeare, focusing on the historical context in which he lived. It was a presenter-led program that combined travel, adventure, interviews, and specially shot documentary sequences with the Royal Shakespeare Company. Rather than concentrating on his plays, the series examined the social and political environment of early 17th-century England, including events like the Spanish Armada, the Gunpowder Plot, and the colonization of the New World. It highlighted how England's cultural transformation during Shakespeare's lifetime shaped his work and the modern world.

The series starred Michael Wood as the presenter.
