Where Shakespeare’s Prince Hal and his pals drink...

“Where Shakespeare’s Prince Hal and his pals drink and debauch in the Boar’s Head Tavern in Eastcheap, his latter-day namesake favours Boujis in South Kensington and the five-star Wynn hotel in Vegas. Where Hal parties with Mistress Quickly, Doll Tearsheet, Pistol, Bardolph and, above all, the irrepressible Falstaff, Harry has his posse of red-trousered, upper-class double-barrels to egg him on. If the tequila slammer and naked billiards had been invented in 1597, Shakespeare would have worked them into the script.”
