Marlowe, is an English dramatist that is quite suspsicious, as he has a mysterious death (and is also rumoured to be Shakespeare...cheeky). Arrested for blasphamy on 20th May, just as you think things can't get worse, he was stabbed 10 days later. It is undecided whether or not his stabbing is related to his arrest, but there is great mystery otherwise from his 'Sherlock Holmes' era.
Mysterious Marlowe skived school (tut tut) and failed to tell Mr Francis why he was off. He also had loads of wonga, for which he had no explination. He counterfeited coins, and when he was caught for this, no action was taken... sounds like spy material to me.
Ok, so, the stabbing. One of the main conclusions of his death is due to a drunken fight, which is still considered today. An other, more dramatic, version involes a fight with him and Frizer, where he ended being stabbed in the eye, right after Marlowe wounded Frizers head. This apparantly went to court, and Frizer was not charged as it was seen as an act of self defence.
Another version of the events, the BAFTA award if you will, is he assasination of Marlowe, as the three people in the room were all in the secret service (although that would make the service public knowledge, hardly a secret at all.. bad joke award for me). So basically, it's up to you which version of the stbbiong you choose. But personally, i'd drag it out for as long as you can.
I do not believe he is shakespeare. Simple, as even Marlowe (the Inspector Clouseau of the Elizabethian era) isn't THAT good (a mon avis).
