Thanks Adrian, well read.
Act 2 is PL OK

Act 3 Scene 9 has a couple of missing lines. If you could add them it would be great please.
Bottom of p44 and top of p45
After King says "Go big them in" and Cambridge exits King should continue (at 01:31)
From "Scroop" .... until... "on the matter"

Also Act 4 Scene 4
middle of page 54
After "and all this must be done" (00:41)
From "Enough"... to "necessity"

Finally in Act 5, Scene 14, there is a word change due to f and s which changes the meaning (I've ignored other slight changes which don't change meaning).
Top of page 79 (08:06) I hear "what in our preference" but the text is "what in our presence"

Thanks very much Beeswaxcandle - all are very well read, with great expression of emotion. Unfortunately I have quite a few PL notes.

Generally, how did you figure out in acts 1-4 which was Friar Paul and which Friar Lawrence? Each section in Act 5 is named Paul or Lawrence but 1-4 are not named as far as I could see so I wasn't sure.

Act 1
I'm very sorry but I'm afraid I hear lots of loud clicks, some are between passages so I'm sure Tod can easily avoid them when piecing together, but some (time stamps below) are in amongst your voice so I'd really appreciate it if you could either edit them out if possible, or re-do them. A hint I received recently is to start with the last one so that you don't alter the time stamp of the earlier ones. Although to be honest there are so many in Act 1 that it might be easier to just re-do it all if click removal doesn't work?
1:07
1:12
1:29

Act 3
No obvious clicks but please could you run a background noise removal?

Act 4

Per the MW, Friar Lawrence only appears in Act 5. So all mentions of "Friar" in the other acts is Friar Paul. Also, in the context of the play, it's Fr. Paul who has the cure of Falstaff and therefore Eleanor.

Acts 1 and 3 fully rerecorded, which certainly easier than patching them.

This section of Act 5 replaced for flow.

The clicks are from the expansion of the aluminium window frames in the spring sun. I'd already removed the really bad ones, I'm so used to them that I don't always hear them.
