Trivia / Ruled Britannia

• Accent Depundent: The guy who runs his mouth about the play confuses people because he refers to the Queen as a "bawd with three debauched daughters", and Shakespeare quickly figures out he’s talking about his secret play. This isn’t so obvious to modern readers, for whom "bawd" (rhyming with "broad") and the first syllable of "Boudicca" (rhyming with "mood") sound nothing alike.
