At last - poetry!! And a little bit of 'Tsaritsa'

Thank goodness!! The BBC is launching a poetry season that actually sounds like real poetry! It is to include, I believe, Tennyson, Shakespeare, Donne and Milton - they're bringing out the 'big guns' again at last!!

May I recommend this programme and Griff Rhys Jones' wonderful presentation of it!! It includes some aspects of poetry that I think are not poetry at all, but regardless of that, his enthusiasm is so wonderful!

Apart from that, if you would like to hear and read a little of the words and music of 'Tsaritsa' - a musical based on the life of Empress Alexandra of Russia, please visit:
