- `Jensen, Michael P. ‘Radio’ in Burt, Richard (ed). Shakespeares After Shakespeares: an Encyclopedia of the Bard in Mass Media and Popular Culture. 2 vols. Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 2006. (p. 540, entry 2348). Jensen criticises the vocal delivery and the often redundant narration observing ‘the show is so ridiculous today that it is astonishing the CBC released it on CD in 2003’.
