I get a bit tired of Mary Beard's gasping and snorting and chuckling in the background. The chatty and jokey and attitudinal stuff doesn't add to the audience's comprehension.
Put off by the set up and, well, the way it all sounds. I love Seneca, but these academics are awful! Melvin Bragg has become perfunctory as he hurry things along. They all should quit! They are past their sell by date. So disappointed but hell, that’s the way the world is going! Just awful, old chap!
They sound like they all popped an adderall right before the show. There’s no pause to consider what the other said and the woman misuses emphasis. Maybe they’re just too British for my liking
