This is great. I look forward to watching From the Four Corners.

Enjoy! Thank you.

Interestingly, Basil Rathbone quotes from that same Richard II speech in Sherlock Holmes and the Secret Weapon (one of the Holmes-fights-Nazis films).

To be fair, if you want patriotic English poetry, Shakespeare is top of the line.

(I need to see some of those movies. I love the idea of translating Rathbone's Holmes to the Second World War without bothering with explanation: archetypes are like that.)
