I've seen this " live" once, and a few times on the Michael Redgrave film.☺️. Here on KZbin, it has been very interesting to hear several versions , including one with Margaret Rutherford as Lady Bracknell : Excellent, as ever ! ☺️ This version is delightful , especially with the perfect diction of John Gielgud. Many thanks. 🇬🇧💕🇬🇧⭐🏞️☀️📖👍🌈🇬🇧
