As
ever, this type of criticism is of a "don't like the cut of his jib"
style - unsubstantiated but loud.
A-R
could not win - A-R drama was too highbrow, A-R popular entertainment was too
lowbrow. The chattering classes demanded a constant supply of material
that would please all of the people all of the time.
They
got it - but never realised until it was gone.
