Can you really kill someone by pouring poison in their ear? How long would it take before Lady Macbeth died from lack of sleep? Shakespeare found 74 different ways to kill off his characters, and audiences today still enjoy the same reactions - shock, sadness, fear - that they did over 400 years ago when these plays were first performed. But how realistic are these deaths, and did Shakespeare have the science to back them up? A rollercoaster of Elizabethan carnage, poison, swordplay and bloodshed.
