Yup, those are also so good suggestions
Not sure what's in Gloucster or Bristol to be honest (other than that I know of them), but Bath is another place I know will be considered. Still, those places may be more interesting... but do they film Doctor Who and Torchwood? :P
What we're going to end up doing is flying in and out of London, so we'll probably only spend a day or so in most of these other places. It's all *very* tentative right now, and the only certainties are that we'll be in London Aug 13, Stratford-upon-Avon Aug 19, and London Aug 23. How many days we spend in various places and when is yet to be decided. One possibility is that we stay in London through the 18th or 19th, then go to Stratford for the play, and on the morning of the 20th go to Cardiff for a day or so and then visit other places such as Bath and Stonehenge as we make our way back to London.
Or, maybe we'll just stay in London all 11 days. Who knows.
I looked into the Chunnel last night on a whim, wondering how much it'd cost to take a day to visit Paris, but it was (understandably) much more expensive than a normal train trip.
