Last night we celebrated the official wrap on Black Beauty! I had so much fun playing Grant in this beautiful film – from working with a 3 week old foal, to having a laugh with Iain Glen – I'm so grateful to the entire cast & crew for making it such a wonderful set to work on. đ pic.twitter.com/Bk4NvZVufv

A brand new production of one of Shakespeareâs History plays with Iain Glen as King Henry and Toby Jones as Falstaff.
Rebellion is brewing in Britain.
King Henry must reunite his country – but how when even his own family is divided? As Henry’s rule is threatened his son Hal appears unconcerned, wasting his time in the company of the comically corrupt Falstaff and some common thieves, apparently more interested in play than the politics of state.
Yet what kind of leadership is needed to unite the country might well be found in the taverns of Eastcheap as within the Palace of Westminster.
King Henry ….. Iain Glen
Falstaff ….. Toby Jones
Hal ….. Luke Thompson
Hotspur ….. Tom Glynn-Carney
Worcester …..Mark Bonnar
Lady Percy …..Natalie Simpson
Glendower ….. Steffan Rhodri
Lady Mortimer ….. Bettrys Jones
Westmoreland ….. Roger Ringrose
Northumberland/Douglas ….. John Dougall
Bardolph/ Sir Walter Blunt ….. John Lightbody
Peto/Sherriff/Vernon ….. Sargon Yelda
John/Mortimer ….. Chris Lew Kum Hoi
Poins/Messenger ….. Hasan Dixon
Mistress Quickly ….. Elizabeth Counsell
Music composed by John Nicholls.
Adapted and directed by Sally Avens.
- A Radio Drama London production for BBC Radio 3

Iain Glenâs Bruce Wayne gets plenty of screen time in episode seven of Titans season 2, and the showrunners even snuck in an homage to Adam Westâs Batman.
The seventh episode of Titans season 2 may be titled âBruce Wayne,â but we donât really get to meet the character. Instead, the Bruce that Iain Glen plays is little more than a figment of Dick Graysonâs imagination â the aftermath of a psychotic break caused by a secret that Dick has been harbouring. Because Bruce is such an ephemeral figure, viewers are left with more questions than answers after watching the episode. One particular scene made us wonder, âIs Iain Glenâs Bruce Wayne an older version of the 1960s character played by Adam West?â
Glenâs Bruce Wayne debuted in the season two premiere of Titans, and he immediately gave off a venerable James Bond vibe. Bruceâs affection for Dick was also obvious, despite the latterâs rebellious nature.
However, very little of that characterization is apparent in episode seven. In Dickâs imagination, Bruce relentlessly taunts his incompetence as a leader, needles him about his jealousy of Jason Todd/ Robin 2.0, and is a general nuisance while Dick attempts to chase Deathstroke down. In other words, Bruce is a real nightmare!
Despite the underlying gloom and brutality on display in this episode, one scene was tonally different because of its hilarity.
As Dick tries to locate Deathstrokeâs handler Wintergreen, he ends up at a burlesque bar (because even Titans isnât above a gratuitous strip club scene apparently). While interrogating a lead, Dick sees Bruce, on stage in the midst of two chorus girls.
As Bruce harangues Dick, he begins to dance â all Batman fans will recognize Glenâs moves. He perfectly emulates Adam Westâs comical, though iconic, performance from the 1960s Batman television show.
The entire sequence is so unexpected that it will take most viewers by surprise. But Glen plays it with unabashed self-awareness, which works because the real Bruce of Titans would probably never be seen dead dancing, forget dancing like that! Unless Dickâs real secret is that he was the first Robin to witness Batmanâs classic Bat-dance, of course.

Iain Glen agreed, adding: âI think the problem with the Holocaust, generally, is it has an incomprehensibility about it for those who had no direct contact with the future generations.
âEither itâs documentary footage, of which there is a lot, but how do you find a way of telling it?â
He added: âWeâre never going to understand â and thatâs whatâs so moving about hearing them (the survivors) afterwards.
âThey are! Theyâre alive and they did such a huge variety of different occupations and went on to do such extraordinary things; theyâre incredibly grateful to the United Kingdom for providing a safe haven for them and so yes, that underlying knowledge, for me, made it really moving watching it with them present.â
The Windermere Children, which also stars Romola Garai and Thomas Kretschmann, airs at 9pm on BBC Two on January 27, which is Holocaust Memorial Day.
