My notes



  After having seen other versions of Merry Wives Of Windsor I included it in my original series of Globe On Screen for completeness.  But this performance won me over totally and I have enjoyed it numerous times since.  Here I have to give immense credit to the whole ensemble cast.  I do not want to give away who gets the biggest cheer at the conclusion of performance.  You will see that for yourself.



  The dvd is available and I urge the viewers here to get for their libraries

either personal or public.



   This new torrent is made since my earlier original uploads lack trackers.

Please help in maintaining the torrent for all to enjoy.
