America's Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) has announced that the Royal Shakespeare Company's recent production of Hamlet starring David Tennant and Patrick Stewart will air in the US as part of the network's "Great Performances" series in 2010. The RSC says that the television adaptation "will retain the quality and tone of the critically acclaimed stage production but filming will take place on location"
The BBC announced earlier this year that the film would air in the UK on BBC Two later in 2009.
Tennant will also be seen on PBS as host of the "Masterpiece Contemporary" series, which returns on October 25.
Press coverage of the PBS broadcast of Hamlet can be seen at Playbill, Variety and wire service articles from The Associated Press and the UK's Press Association, each of which were picked up by many newspapers.

"Those were the days when we still associated Bond with suave, old school actors such as Sean Connery and Roger Moore,"
