  Marlowe had worked with Poley before and had an acquaintance, and Poley knew Skeres through Walsingham and previous work, and Skeres was friends/scam-artists together with Frizer.  So that could be why that was the group that met together.  A group of not quite friends/colleagues met casually when all weren't otherwise busy.

  Yes, we did need to see the theories of his death, repeatedly. <br>According to his manner of death, a single dagger wound, to his forehead, wouldn’t have been possible. The dagger would have bounced off, or slid across his forehead. <br>But, if this an assassination, then a heavier dagger/spike, could have been the weapon. <br>Context is important.

  Excessive coincidences are worthy of skepticism.<br><br>Marlowe was arrested on a capital chaarge and by coincidence Marlowe, who was known to have travelled overseas, to have carried out clandestine missions, and who spoke multiple languages, &nbsp;was released on his own recognisance. Really? <br><br>He was to report back daily and presumably did yet ten days later was free and traveling to Depford.<br><br>He spent the day at the home of a woman well connected to the Crown with three men who all had worked for the secret serevice. The had long walks and conversations in the garden, awayfrom evesdroppers?<br><br>The inquest was handled solely by the Queeen&apos;s Coroner, despite the fact that the County coroner&apos;s participation was required by law. Danby, the Queen&apos;s Coroner then promptly disappeared, hever to be heard from again. The inqqquest was conducted in a town where Marlow was presumably unknown. <br><br>In the inquest document, the description of the body is different From Marlowe. &nbsp;It has been many years but I recall it was several inches taller. <br><br>My own hunch is that Marlow was a pwn in a Secret Service vs. Church spat. The CHurch wanted him dead and the Secret service wanted him alive and to avoid a direct confrontation with the Church. TThe Secret Service causing him to convincingly disappear was totally doable and would have served both purposes.

  The Earl of Surrey might object to you crediting Marlowe with the creation of English blank verse. &nbsp;He was using it before Marlowe was born.

  Aunque este tipo de programas son interesantes porque sacan a la luz elementos desconocidos, es obvio que terminan por concluir que tras todo esto, sólo permanece la misma duda que había antes de oír las opiniones de los expertos.

  Interesting to hear the opinions, but did we really have to see those same bits of acting over and over and over again?

  Nothing about the UOC wanting to deny Marlowe a Master of Arts degree b/c it was rumored he wanted to go to the English Uni in Rheims and be ordained a Catholic priest?

  The safe house matron was a widow, not a widower.

  Three quarters of repetitions and without any conclusion. I demand my 45 minutes back.
