Thanks. Looks nice.

I'm afraid I know very little about old Shakey.

Do you know why they're called the Henriad tetrology? I mean, what with one being Richard II (and there also being the Henry VI plays).

Just curious.

Never mind, I think I've got it!

Henry Bolingbroke (later Henry IV) was in Richard II (the play, I mean!).

And old Shakey's first tetralogy comprised the three Henry VI plays and Richard III.

You learn something new every day, eh.

Thanks again.
