Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are dead

I have to say I'm not very familiar with Tom Stoppard's work, though he's been on my list for some time. But after watching this bit, I really want to read or see the whole play, the dialogue (well, it's nearly a monologue) is brilliant (and I think it helps that Benedict Cumberbatch is one of my favourite actors):

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are characters from Shakespeare's Hamlet and in this play they talk abot death and eternity - sounds grave, but seems to be really funny. I must go and watch/ read the whole thing!
